Chapter 11: Training

"Okay, so we're gonna use stick so no one gets hurt." Moira said, "Well, so no one gets impaled or loses a limb."

"Fine." Brick said grabbing a stick.

"Alright, now, let's see if you can block my strikes, okay?" Moira asked.

Brick nodded.

Moira lunged for him and he just barely blocked it. Moira struck again and he barely blocked it as well.

"Not bad." Moira said.

"Thanks." Brick said.

Moira went to hit him again, but with a different type of strike and whacked him in the gut knocking him over.

"Ow…" Brick whined.

Moira smirked.

"You were pretty good, but you only seemed to know one block," she said, "had this been a real sword your guts would be all over the place."

Brick nodded getting up.

"You need to know how to block both ways," Moira said, "and block a stab." she helped Brick up on his feet. "I highly doubt that your sword will be used like a regular one, it probably has different attacks, you'll probably only need to learn to block, but it's best you know how to use it like a regular one just in case."

"How do you know about sword fighting?" Brick asked.

"Well, I took lessons as a kid," Moira said, "I took a lot of self-defense classes as well, with the way my parents treated me it was kinda necessary."

Brick nodded and picked up his stick.

"Okay, let's try this again." Moira said.


"So, why am I doing this on a sea saw?" Boomer asked.

"So you can work on balance and working on your aim if you need to suddenly move, or get knocked over." Moira said, "Now focus on hitting the targets."

She pulled a lever and the targets started moving.

"They're moving!" Boomer cried.

"And so will your enemies," Moira said, "you seriously think they'll just stand still so you can hit them?"

"Uh…" Boomer said.

"Just focus on trying to hit them." Moira said.

Boomer nodded. He loaded a rock into the slingshot Moira gave him and aimed. Moira jumped onto the sea saw causing him to lose balance and miss the shot.

"Hey!" Boomer cried.

"You need to focus and keep your aim even if you lose balance." Moira said, "I'm just trying to help you learn to do that."

Boomer glared.

"Come on, try again." Moira said.


"Why's Buttercup here!?" Butch asked panicked.

"Cuz you're the only two who have the same weapon and I honestly have no idea how to work with you since you have a sledge hammer." Moira said nervously with a sweat drop.

Buttercup had a sinister smile on her face as she pulled out her hammer.

Butch gulped. He was screwed.


"Ugh! I hate Moira's training!" Boomer whined.

"Hah! I almost got beat up by Buttercup!" Butch complained.

"Mine wasn't so bad." Brick said, "Actually, I enjoyed it."

Boomer and Butch glared.

"Lucky!" they whined.

Brick smirked.

"What exactly was your training anyway?" he asked.

"Moira had me stand on a sea saw that she'd repeatedly jump on while I tried to these moving targets she made." Boomer said.

"I had to fight Buttercup." Butch said, "Moira actually ended up having to break it up."

"Mine was just learning to sword fight." Brick said, "I did end up on my butt a lot though."

"Moira knows sword fighting?" Boomer asked.

Brick nodded.

"She seems really good too." Brick said, "After she decided that we'd gone over blocking enough she had me try to hit her, but she just stepped out of the way each time before she blocked one of them then struck me knocking me over. I'm really glad we used sticks, majority of the time she hit me in my stomach, and I'd like to keep my insides inside of me."

"Did you manage to beat her at all?" Butch asked.

"No, but she said I was learning really fast." Brick said, "Even said that I might be as good as her soon."

"She just groaned when we decided to finish." Boomer said, "When we started she said I needed to learn to stay balanced and focused even if I got hit or had to move out of the way, and that I had to know how to hit a moving target because enemies aren't just gonna stand still and let me hit them."

"She said she had no idea how to work with me and since Buttercup had a hammer as well she'd be the one teaching me." Butch said.

"Yikes." Brick said, "That sucks."

Boomer sighed.

"I don't get the point of Moira's training." he said, "I mean, why would I need to even be on a sea saw?"

"Well, when I knocked you over you did suddenly lose balance and almost got us killed." Butch said.

"He has a point." Brick said.

Boomer just groaned.

"Hey," Brick said, "I have an idea, why don't we sneak out tonight and practice ourselves?"

"Huh?" Boomer and Butch asked.

"Think about it, I'm the only one who seems to be making progress, maybe if we try it ourselves we might be able to improve faster." Brick said, "We'd still use her courses, but we wouldn't have to do it exactly her way, for example, no Buttercup."

"Just don't jump on the sea saw, I don't think I can work on hitting them and keeping balance at the same time." Boomer said, "Every time I aimed I was trying to hit something moving, but I kept waiting for Moira to jump that when she didn't I'd fire and then get the aim screwed up because she would jump just when I did. I think I'd do better if I mastered moving targets first."

"Sounds good." Brick said.

"I'll just practice; I honestly don't have a course." Butch said.

"Why don't you practice sword fighting with me then?" Brick asked, "I can show you what I know."

Butch and Boomer shared a look before nodding.

"Let's do it!" they cried.


Moira had her ear pressed to the door listening in on what they said.

'D-did I really push Boomer and Butch that far?' she thought.

The door moved some making her pull back and dart to the kitchen. Once in she quickly made the boys plates of the food she'd made, steak, green beans, and mashed potatoes with gravy. Once that was done she made her way back to her room and rapped on the door.

"Boys, food's done." she said.

"Alright!" the boys cried from inside.

Moira barely got out of the way of the door along with escaping getting run over.

"Okay, next time, I'm either going into the room, or just yelling from the kitchen." she said her head huge, with black dot eyes, blue lines going down her face and a blue vein mark on her forehead.


"Oh man, I'm starved yo!" Boomer cried rubbing his hands together.

"How bout not nearly running me over next time, okay?" Moira asked entering and making herself a plate, "You guys better not have tampered with this while I was getting over the heart attack you three gave me just now."

"We didn't." the boys said.

Moira sighed and started eating.

"Thanks for the food, it's great!" Brick said with his mouth full.

Moira gave an annoyed look.

"What's up with her?" Boomer hissed.

"Heard that." Moira said.

Boomer nervously laughed and rubbed the back of his neck.

Moira sighed.

"I'm fine, just tired." she said, "It's been a long day for us all, so please, whatever you guys do after you eat, keep it down, I'm going to bed once I'm done."

"Okay." the boys said.

Moira nodded and continued to eat.

'I'm so glad I have those night vision goggles, this way I can spy on them and see if they really do do better trying it their way.' she thought standing up and cleaning her dish.

"Well, night guys, don't stay up too late, okay?" Moira asked.

"Relax; we won't be up real late." Brick said.

Moira gave a slightly relieved sigh.

"Seeing as you said it I have more confidence you actually will go to bed at a decent hour instead of it coming from Boomer or Butch." she said.

"HEY!" the two cried.

"If you wouldn't constantly cause trouble then maybe I'd have a bit more faith in you two." Moira said before sighing, "Look, I trust you guys, you're my brothers, but please, don't betray that trust, okay? Just because you're super heroes now doesn't mean you can get away with causing trouble."

"Alright." the boys said nodding.

"Good." Moira said before heading into her room.

She grabbed her phone and put her earbuds in playing her music so she'd stay awake.

"Shh!" the boys hissed sometimes later.

"Quick, check to see if she's asleep!" Brick hissed.

Moira yanked out the earbuds and muted the music before pretending to be asleep.

"Looks like it." Boomer said.

"I think she's out cold." Butch said.

"Good, now hurry!" Brick hissed.

The boys quickly left the room and Moira sprung out of bed before grabbing the night vision goggles and spying on them.


"Okay, so Moira pulled a lever by the targets to start them." Boomer said, "But it's really dark out."

"Hard Brick!" Brick cried transforming.

Once he had he managed to summon red disks that glowed like neon lights.

"That's better." he said. Then he realized something. "Wait a minute! How'd I even do that!?"

"Well, remember how yesterday we agreed to let the Professor fix our belts so we could transform at will?" Butch asked, "I bet that's what happened."

"Yeah, but where'd the disks come from?" Brick asked.

"Maybe we have two weapons?" Boomer offered.

"Oh, so I have a good one and a lame one," Brick said, "nice." He rolled his eyes before sighing. "Come on, let's just practice."

He pulled the lever turning on the targets. He and Butch watched as Boomer worked on his aim, which wasn't the greatest. He and Butch shared a yawn as they watched. Suddenly Boomer managed to hit one.

"I hit it? I hit it!" Boomer cried before being shushed by his brothers. "Sorry." he said sweat dropping.

He tried again managing to hit it. He repeated this multiple times, most of the time hitting his target.


"Huh? What'da ya know? He actually improved." Moira said as she watched from the window.


"Okay," Brick said picking up two sticks, "this is so no one gets killed." he handed one to Butch who nodded. "Now, I'm gonna do what Moira did and I want you to try and block my strikes, got it?" Brick asked.

"Just come at me already." Butch said making Brick roll his eyes.

Brick lunged and went at him, but Butch blocked it. He tried again with the same result. He decided to do what Moira did and changed the way he delivered his strike allowing him to whack Butch in the stomach and make him lose balance.

"Okay, so we need to work on your blocking." Brick said helping Butch steady himself.

Butch nodded and they got to work.

"What time is it?" Boomer asked a while later.

"Not sure." Brick said yawning. He checked the time and his eyes widened. "Ah! It's one in the morning! Moira's gonna kill us!"

'Oh please,' Moira thought rolling her eyes, 'I'm gonna be too tried to care come tomorrow, heck! I'll probably be living off of coffee tomorrow!'

The boys rushed into the house and into their room where they found Moira waiting.

"Before you say anything, I don't care." she said, "I knew you guys were gonna do that, I overheard you, and I gotta admit, I'm impressed, but next time, tell me if you think something should be changed, if you'd just told me I would have given your ideas a shot. I guess working on aim and balance at the same time was a bit over the top, but I'm surprised you improved so quickly, it's pretty cool. Oh! And Brick, I think those disks are pretty cool."

The boys shared a smiled and beamed at her praise.

Moira yawned.

"Anyway, I'm going to be for real this time." she said, "I'll see you when I wake up."

"Sounds good." the boys said before collapsing on the floor and falling asleep.


SPH: Well, that sure was an exciting night! Okay, so since the girls now have two weapons, minus Buttercup since Moira can't seem to fix the bow I figured that the boys should have two as well, and I noticed that in most stories and fan art Brick used disks as a weapon and I just went with it because honestly, I couldn't come up with anything, so, Boomer's second weapon is actually two in one, bombs that he hits with a bat, again, couldn't really come up with anything so I just went with it, and Butch's weapon is a flute, mostly because I saw a fan art where that was his weapon, but also for a sense of irony since Butch is the strongest, probably toughest of the three and he has a weapon that's the exact opposite. Moira's training was something I found funny, namely because I had her subconsiosly force the boys to improve at once and thus only made it harder on them to improve. Boomer's training was inspired by a videogame I played and by a past exeriance where I'd been standing on the board that was set up similar to a sea saw and someone thought it would be funny to jump on it when I wasn't looking. Anyway, I had a bunch of questions I wanted to ask, but I can't think of what they were. Tell me what you thought in the comments, it really means a lot to me when I get feedback from you guys, so please, comment and tell me what you thought. Alright, well, this is Samantha Peace HeartStar signing off for now! Peace out and keep spreading the KH, HTTYD, RWBY, Angel's Friends, Miraculous Ladybug, Disney, Sims 3, Skyrim, and Powerpuff Girls Z love! Good night!
