Chapter 2:
Flying
"Wow the sky is so beautiful", I exclaimed "If it hadn't been for Amy's quick intervention that Morrow freak would've made us miss our flight". I turned back ready for the monster's retort, but she was busy staring off into space and obviously ignoring me as she always did. Sarah and Andy simply rolled their eyes, and our quiet abomination Kaira Seth gave me a look that could kill the strongest man alive.
"Oh well", I added pretending not to notice,"At least it looks like we'll still have time to shop around for a while before registering, I wonder what kind of shopping malls exist in Japan", I added excitedly. I looked around once more to see if any of my teammates shared my enthusiasm but they simply rolled their eyes again and turned away.
Everything was ready and the weather as Mrs. O' Neal had implied was perfect. We however, had more important things do to than sightseeing. The Bid-Beasts were in top condition, I had checked everything last night. Even if the opponents were though we would be able to overcome even their strongest techniques.
I truly trusted all of my teammates and I knew we would all do well. The one that had me worried though was Miss. Morrow It would not be a good thing if she went and got drunk in one of the many bars in Japan. Not only would she be in risk of getting raped or kidnapped, but she would never get the chance to prove her to her brother.
I looked at her she was tired , not just physically but mentally I alone of all the other's knew that she wasn't just drinking to have fun or smoking to relieve her stress from training. It was all his fault, her brother's fault, Andrew Morrow( the current major of New York City) had not only killed Kristine's parents and made her believe they had crashed somewhere in a hill. He had also taken all her money and was forcing her out of every job opening in New York.
Her small orphan friends were being trained to be assassins and filthy robbers that would do Andrew's dirty work. Kristine's ex-boyfriend the popular skater Skyler Koujoui had broken up with her since when he saw she was a drinker and smoker. The popular skater wouldn't be seen with a drug-using girlfriend his rep was too important for him bastard.
That is why she dranked and smoked like a lunatic she was trying to forget and maybe die quicker to escape her painful you know what, even after all that,she always has a smile on her face. I had to save her, why cause I knew how she felt I was an orphan too, I could not let her die not like this, not without both of us using the money we got from the tournament to challenge her brother's power and defeat him once and for all.
