December 7
3:20 p.m. (last day of school)
Tom to his friends; so guys is there anything you want to do during winter break?
Aki; I think we should go swimming together.
Rose; I'm having a party after Christmas!
Tom; nice. Hay Itona, what do you think?
Itona; I'm ok with wherever you guys want.
Aki; so, you're just a follower then?
Tom; hey, don't say that. Up until a month ago he never spoke to anyone.
Rose; like seriously, he just sat alone by that table looking depressing as F.
Aki; till someone just conveniently found that manga in his bag.
Tom; what can I say? The dude had good taste, I just had to introduce you to him.
Aki; right then, anyway see you guys later.
Rose; hey Tom, wana come to my place alone tonight and do stuff?
Tom; Rose, I told you I'm not interested.
Rose; aw, I didn't mean it like that! and this is the 10th time you're brushing me off.
[this girl got no game]
Tom; I just don't think I should come to your place at night while your parents are gone, and besides I've told you time and time again, I'm not interested in dating you.
Meanwhile…
Jake; so then, you slam him to the ground, break his spine, rip his gut open, remove the spine, slice off the head, then you throw it up and hit it with the spine. And that's called head ball.
Jerry; interesting, sounds like a mortal combat finisher.
Jake; so about our results, you seem to be losing your edge, I mean you usually get a 90 or above in English, I didn't expect to beat you that easily.
Jerry; aren't you just saying that to cope with the fact I beat you in basically everything else?
Jake; you just had to say it.
Jerry; you just had to bring it up.
Takeshi; hey punks! Why don't you just shut up and come quietly for a second?
Jerry and Jake; wait, who the hell are you?
Takeshi; forgotten me already have you? The man you destroyed with one punch in the warehouse.
Jerry; oh yeah the warehouse, doesn't ring a bell.
Probably because I only remember strong opponents I've faced.
[btw; he does remember he just doesn't give a shit]
Takeshi; then let me refresh your memory.
Then Takeshi opened his hand, created sparks from it, and flung a ball of blue flames so large it filled the street, but luckily the two boys dodged the attack.
Jerry; ok, now I definitely don't remember you, but I like you though.
Takeshi; I'm flattered; however, this is the last time we'll be meeting.
Then Takeshi attacked Jerry with a punch which Jerry blocked followed by a kick which was blocked as well.
Jerry; *he's fast. and surprisingly more agile than last time. *
Then as Takeshi was about to deliver another kick to Jerry, Jake jumped in and blocked it.
Jake; mind if I tag in?
Jerry; dude I was just about to enjoy this.
Jake; too bad, I can't let you have all the fun.
Then Jake punched Takeshi in the gut, then jumped to give him a double kick to the face, pushing him back.
Takeshi; you're stronger than you look but it doesn't matter because…
Ring! Ring!
Jerry; hello? Oh, ok, right, we'll be right there.
Hey Tom, bad news, Dave said we should get home immediately.
Tom; AW! Common! And I was just starting to have fun! Fine, let's get serious.
Jerry; bummer.
Takeshi; excuse me? What did you mean by serious?
Jake; oh nothing, just this.
Then at full speed Jerry rushed up to Takeshi and kicked him in the nuts, sending him a few feet to the air, then Jake ran jumped, and punched him in the face with so much force he was sent flying into a building several meters away, where he became immobilized.
Jake; did you have to hold back that much?
Jerry; any more than that, and his eggs would have hatched.
Jake; fine, but let's be glad he's just a low life and not one of those Con guys. Anyway, looks like our training has payed off.
Jerry; yeah, after three unbearable months. Anyway, race you back home!
Jake; no fair! You basically have supper speed!
Jerry; sounds like just a lame excuse!
Jake; *that guy never changes does he? *
Later at the house…
Dave; ok boys, here's what I have to say, Lenard, you can come out now.
Then Lenard came into the living room.
Jerry; Lenard, what are you doing here buddy?
Lenard; *inhales* Jerry, I need to tell you guys something…
Jerry; what is it?
Lenard; 1st, you have a stain on your shirt.
Jerry; huh? Oh this, I guess I do. *must have been from the fight earlier*
Lenard; and second, I want to thank you for getting me out the dark place my mind was in, because of what you said, I can finally communicate freely. Which is why I rushed to deliver this message to you from Lisa.
Jerry; what is it!
Lenard; she says that she's been feeling more and more anxious with each passing day, it like she can feel an attack is coming, she's been training every single day for the past 3 months! She's also been losing sleep because of it.
Jerry; BULLSHIT!
Jake; whoa, bro chill out!
Jerry; I know what's causing it. It's him, he's doing it.
Jake; Con? Wait, is it about that nightmare back in the estate?
Jerry; it is; he's trying to attack her mentally just like he did me.
Tom; so what do we do now?
Dave; it's your call Jerry, I'll respect whatever choice you make.
Jerry; Were going after him.
Tom; what! Bro you know that's…
Jerry; either we come for him or him us, that's how this is, we can't just stand by and wait for death to come, we need to take the fight to him while he's not expecting it.
Tom; are you sure we're ready now?
Dave; very well Jerry, I said I'll respect whatever choice you made, so please do not make me regret that decision.
Jerry; that won't happen Dave. Jake, call Lucas, C and K.
Jake; alright.
So then Jake called the three boys and informed them of what had been happening then they came over.
Lucas; …alright, Con's hideout is in a small remote area on the other side of the woods. There are several guards both inside and outside. But don't worry, you guys would probably be able to take them on, however, there are three guys besides black and white, the ones who beat Jake and Tom up…
Jake; I do not like those guys.
Lucas; two guys and one lady, namely, chain, fist and blade. After you beat them, just go straight through the hallway, you'll find Con's quarters there.
Jerry; alright, guys get ready, we're storming the place tomorrow.
Tom; WHAT! But…
Jerry; did you forget what colour the moon is gona be tomorrow?
Jake; wait, you're right tomorrow is the blood moon.
Jerry; exactly, if we don't attack him now, he'll come target us and put us in a position where we have no choice but to give him the axe.
Jake; but are you sure we could beat him?
Jerry; …honestly, I don't know, but it's better than just waiting for death to come right? Also that's the thing he won't be expecting us so its perfect timing since his guard will be down.
Jake; I guess you're right.
Tom; I don't completely agree with you on this bro, but I guess if I can't trust you, who can I trust? I'm in.
C and K; sir Jerry.
K; please we would like to accompany you to take our revenge on the one who did this to us.
C; yes! We will follow you and master to the very end.
Jerry; if I didn't want you to come, I wouldn't have called for you.
Then Jake hugged the two of them and said, just don't get yourselves killed you two.
C and K; we won't.
Jake; *it seems I've grown quite attached to them in such a short while*
Jerry; alright, C, K, and Lucas can stay in Jake's house over the night. Alright everyone, let's get some rest, we're raiding Con's base tomorrow as soon as possible.
The boys to Jerry; RIGHT!
A few minutes later…
Lisa to Jerry on the phone; Wait, so, you're attacking Con's base tomorrow?
Jerry; yeah, that's what I said.
Lisa; Please tell me you're joking.
Jerry; wish I could, but that bastard did something I can't forgive, he went after someone I cared about, to get to me.
Lisa; but can't you see that you're just falling for his ploy? What if it's a trap? What if?
Jerry; Lisa, I know, I've already considered every probability, I know that I might not come back from this, but still I can't just stand by and do nothing while my friends suffer. It doesn't sit right with me.
Listen, I promise, I'll come back. We all will, trust me.
Lisa; you better keep your promise.
Jerry; I will.
Lisa; also, before you go, I need to tell you.
I like you, I have for a while now, I just wanted to let you know in case we never see each other again. Goodbye.
Then Lisa hung up the phone. Then Tom looked and Jerry, who had a shocked look on his face.
Tom; are you seriously shocked? Like it was really obvious.
Jerry; no, I knew, since before the estate. I was only shocked that she actually had the guts to tell me, at least, this soon. *and honestly, I don't know how I feel for sure, to me, after I found out I just went with it, she has always been a good friend and though she's my ideal I doubt I've ever thought of her like that, *
Tom; sure, anyway, you have any relationship advice for me?
Jerry; just go to sleep you idiot.
Next chapter coming soon!
