While the others went to get some food after the fight, Danny broke off from them. With the speed at whish these guys are leveling up and getting stronger, I'll be left in the dust, strength is everything in this world so if I want to be the protagonist I have to be stronger then everyone. Danny had so far learned the basics of self defence which was to block and counter attack but his avading skills not so much, since he arrived at the city he had always challenged opponents far stronger than he was, why? Because of the reward, as long as he survived or lasted a few minutes he would get huge rewards, after that he would train and go again but always lost because his opponents where far above him.
But there was another silver lining in his tactics, he gained experience, aldo not much he was now calm and focused when fighting and could somewhat predict people's actions, at least those who couldn't really fight so it came as a surprise when he walked back into the gymnasium and offered an open challenge.
Meanwhile the gang was getting closer with Lita
I have to admit you pushed me the brink Nikita said
yh, I thought I would win so I didn't really go all out
thank God you didn't otherwise Niki would have been dead
Romeo! Sarah said giving him a side eye
what, someone has to say and I will, thank you for putting Niki in her place
hey I won that match
yh by the skin of your teeth
anyway she said ignoring Romeo's taunts
can I see how strong you really are now?
uhh I rather not
common we promise not to tell Nikita said curious as to how far off in stats they where for the system to give her such a mission
uhh I'm still not comfortable about that so I would rather keep it to myself
oh that's ok, anyway your welcome to hang with us anytime Sarah said sensing an awkward silence would fall on them with Lita's response
alright since all that's out of the way time to check my rewards
huh? wait you got a mission from that match?
yup
wait but I thought you couldn't get missions from sparing
well apparently Lita was so much stronger than me that the system gave me a mission, that's why I wanted to check her stats but at least I won the match so it's ok, I'll just have to catch up

so how about now, are my stats far from yours Nikita asked with a smug look on her face
well your strength level is close but not quite there and your speed is a little above half my actual speed
Nikita's brows started twitching, hehe is that so, well hehe good to know, how strong is she Niki thought
so umm about sparing with Adam
oh yh you can spar with him but on one condition, I come too
umm me too I also want to learn how to fight Sarah said
I'm not doing anything so I'll come watch
Lita was a little hesitant but then Adam tapped her arm
it's fine Lita, whether you choose to tell them about your new powers they'll eventually find out when they reach level 100 so it's fine, you can trust them besides who do you know will confidently show they stats without trusting the other person, it's ok Lita we're your friends now he said
hearing this put her at ease a little but she still wasn't going to show of her new powers to anyone else
That day a new friendship was made while an intense hatred was created. The next day, the gang received stares as all of them where working out with Lita, Adam and Lita where working out while Niki was teaching Sarah some basic self defence moves, she was never the violence type but with the state of the world now it was a necessity. Meanwhile else where someone was becoming a rising star as he had gone five straight matches in a row without loosing, the first for him. It was non other than Danny, just like yesterday he had gone through five matches again today and he wasn't ready to slow down, he was putting everything he had learned into practice and putting all his stat points into speed and strength.
if plan A was a failure then I'll go with plan be, a direct approach and beat you myself he said as he was recovering and looking at his new skill
Charger: The host can store up kinetic energy as he moves and later discharge it at any amount, There's a backlash and drainage of stamina if the hosts body can't withstand the release of power.
haha, just you wait Adam I'll catch up in no time and claim my spot. At the center of the city, in an office was a man doing some paperwork when he stopped.
what's this, someone's will power has finally risen to the point I can no longer control them? hmmmm, let's see who this person is and what coursed this.
Danny had taken a break and was eating in the large dinning hall when he saw the others eating together, he had stayed in the far of side close to the wall so they didn't see him or at least hadn't noticed him, they where too busy talking about they're own things. Seeing them laugh together and make fun of Adam made his hatred and jealousy grow even more, he remembered the times when it was just the three of them, himself,Adam and Romeo, back then he felt like the protagonist and his friends where his side characters who where only there to support him, he had Influenced them to watch anime with him and to look at girls in provocatively. To him they where his personal hench men always following him around, but now he felt betrayed, he was ment to be the leader and others follow, the strongest, most popular, the one everybody looked up to and praised, this was ment to be his world where he would shine but now one of his closest friends had betrayed him and taken his spot. With this thought in mind he broke the spoon he was using and headed to the gymnasium again to continue his matches unbeknown to him he was now being watched.
