"I just wonder what is going on in the head coach's mind." Poseidon exhaled hopeless. Reaching the upper part of the hill Cassiel pointed out a green flag, "Everyone! Let's rest here, it's the resting spot." "Finally…" Adam uttered panting and stopping in his tracks. The boys one by one stopped where the green flag was marked. Taking the water bottles which laid under trees, all of them rested under their shade.
"From what I heard… we'll be meeting the high schoolers in a day or two. I can't help but feel a little anxious…" Seraph remembered. "Yes, I also heard about it. Furthermore, we can meet them any time. Be it day or night. Looks like we'll have to be fully prepared for anything." added Feng.
"Ah~ so refreshing…" Kenzo chanted pouring the water on his hairs. "Ah~ it's hot…" he wiped his face. "Thank goodness, that we even have a resting spot now. At first we were told to climb this mountain without a single moment of rest. It was unbearable!" Azazel recalled shrugging.
"So true… It would take us a whole day to return back, but now we can easily climb back and forth in half a day." Poseidon concurred relaxing his legs straight. "Ha! Hah! Hah…!" panted Ezekiel as he finally caught up to them. Suddenly falling flat faced onto the ground he cried in joy, "I finally made it!" "Just so you know, the whole half mountain is left to climb. We are nowhere even close to making It." Gabriel corrected.
"No way~!" Ezekiel cried as the others gazed at each other with their expression blank. "Just tell me one thing Ezekiel, what will you do if you face any high schoolers hun? From the looks of it you'll only tarnish our academy's good name with your laziness." Helios scolded slightly disappointed.
"Hehe, don't be so hard on him now Helios, look he started sulking again." pointed Heber chortling. "Ah…,now that I remember by high schoolers, there was one more person who was coming to visit as well. Ah… I just can't seem to remember his name…" Cassiel stated thinking hard.
Xavier spoke up nodding, "Yes… there was one more person as well. And from the looks of it. He seems to be away from the other High schoolers up until now. So he may be one amongst them but somewhere else currently." "Arrgh! So many people are coming, I can't help but feel really nervous now!!" freaked Feng.
"Stop freaking out! What are you a child? Even if they are coming we don't have to be nervous! After all we are powerful as well. Let's crush them under our superiority!" Kenzo declared vibrantly. "Haha, as expected of our king. Let's give it our all." Xavier smiled. Ryan gazed at the route up ahead speaking up, "Let's move on forward now, or else we'll be late."
"Okay!" Adam agreed instantly marching behind him. "So says the prince, let's go!" Helios ran behind as well. Soon, all of them made their way upwards. Rushing forward and forward the boys finally reached the top of the mountain. "Huff! Huff! Huff! I am first!" claimed Kenzo gasping hard.
"Pardon your mightiness… I was a minute earlier before you this time." smiled Xavier, standing with his back on the tree before him. "Of course, I am second this time." Gabriel walked forward. "And, I am third." acclaimed Seraph. "Huh?! What the hell? How come you are all here before me?" Kenzo uttered puzzled.
"Hehe… we used a shortcut~ silly king~" Adam teased stnading with his arm on Ryan's shoulder. "Yo! We both are fourth and fifth!" he beamed pointing at himself nd then Ryan. "Hey! Who said I am fifth?" Ryan uttered annoyed. "Huh? But you are fifth. I stepped one step ahead of you." corrected Adam. "No way, I am fourth!" Ryan claimed.
"Huh?! I am! You demon Ryan. I am fourth!" he cried as they stared quarrelling. "Looks like you are reigning the eight place today, your holiness…" Helios marching forth with Cassiel who waved behind him depicting that Helios took the sixth position while he took seventh.
Kenzo twitched his eyes. "You cheaters!!" He erupted irritated. "Cheaters? What do you mean? There was no rule of not taking a different route on the mountain or was there?" Ryan eyed him seriously. "The one at fault is you yourself. Don't blame it on others. After all, you have to work a lot your fake highness." he mocked him straightforwardly.
Kenzo stared at him with veins popping on his forehead, "Hey you brat… don't get so full of yourself, you only won the inter academy cricket championship. If you have the guts then have a showdown with me right now!" he claimed.
Ryan smirked back mischievously, "Oh really~? Bring it on~" "Alright, alright, don't forget what we are really here for. If you keep fighting amongst yourselves we'll never get the work done. Look it's going to be noon soon." Cassiel suddenly butted in between their quarrel. "Cassiel's right, Ryan. It's no time to be arguing amongst ourselves." Xavier patted his shoulder.
Ryan gazing at him for a while responded, "Fine…" Xavier nodded. "We are here!" called Feng and Poseidon rushing towards the rest with Azazel and Heber behind them who pulled Ezekiel. "Where were you Poseidon?" Helios asked grasping a look at him. "Ah… I am sorry but, I couldn't leave Ezekiel behind that's why I was a little late." Poseidon apologized.
"Captain were here!" told Azazel and Heber together. "Where did you run off in the middle captain? We looked around to find you for so long~" cried Azazel tiredly. Kenzo looked at them cross, "You were trying to find me?! Are you both idiots? Where would I be if not on the top of the mountain you fools?!" "Sorry captain!!" the two of them apologized abruptly while Kenzo sighed. Soon beginning to give them one hell long of a lesson.
Feng walked towards Xavier, "What took you so long, Feng?" Xavier questioned. "Haha… nothing at all. I just got distracted by the flowers…" he replied embarrassingly. Adam looked at him in disbelief, "Again… you never learn do you?" "Haha…" Feng laughed back awkwardly scratching his hairs.
