Agura's Notes

Chapter 1: Another day

The evening was moving in as the group returned to the hub, Sherman piggy-backed his sleeping brother, Spinner. Agura was being walk-dragged courtesy of Tezz. Vert, Stanford and Zoom were just about out of fuel. Stiffed and drained from the latest battle against the red sentients; each used the last of their strength to head for their dorms.

In the morning, Zoom was taking his last round of Muay Thai training in the garage. Agura was just passing by when she found him, "hey Zoom, the Chopper isn't going to fix itself," she greeted, "I wouldn't like to see you in a scrap pile." He took one last side kick in the tires, "Yeah yeah..." He walked side by Agura and joined with the others tuning up their vehicles.

"(sigh) It's times like these I wish I was back at the temple." He thought. Sure, the ancient rituals and regulations of the temples were "ancient". But at least he had more moments of peaceful mediations; his now cut-up, shock-burned hands have had better days there too. They may be nimble with the put down on punches and blocks, but they can't do squat when they need to put down on fixing his Chopper, his wrist bands weren't just a fashion statement. Up till now Zoom still hadn't gotten a clue between a gas tank and the engine. Still he loves being here, with the action in constant acceleration in every battlezone. But the only problems these days are that the same action is growing more death defying with the red sentients in the mix, and his life outside the battlezone is growing more routine. This morning's training was getting on his final nerve; he must fine something to do without resolving to break Zen's promise and abandoning the Battle Force 5. He must find it. Fast!

The Chopper zapped him back to reality he took a break to tend to his new burns, as he took out the first aid kit. He turned his eyes to Tezz when a smile threatened to sneak in on his face.

Tezz was looking in the side view mirror of his Spiltwire, he was all lazy eyed with a smirk to boot. Zoom figured he was admiring himself, he was about to tease Tezz but notice Agura bending over on the Tangler's wheels, right across him. She stood up with a look of suspicion and turned around, by then Tezz cranked back on to work. "A great thing about having a woman I guess," Zoom chuckled, " is you never need a pin-up poster."

Then as Agura reached for the monkey ranch Sherman's hand was heading that direction, the two hands went on a gentle collision. He retrieved his hand in light speed as he blushed and rubbed the back of his head. He gestured the ranch to her, which she simply obliged. This caused Zoom to pause, "one adult female... six adult males," he nodded as a grin spreaded ear to ear, "This could just be exactly what I need right now."

The alarm went off, another stormshock approaches. The recent excitement in Zoom's mind was all the fuel he needed to head for another battlezone ; looking forward to get back to the hub to put his could -be idea into motion.
