DEAR GOOD FRIENDS
Leo woke up in a hospital bed... He gets up, puts on his uniform, and leaves as he thought "I couldn't stop thinking of her, and Plasma... If they didn't betray N, Minami, no one... wouldn't of...", he looks at a Nurse Joy passing by, she turns as she notices him "Ah, your ...Mr Flyte, right? You already clear to leave! But it looks like you already knew, please becareful!". He smiles "I'll try, Thanks.", she bows and leaves. Leo went to the waiting room... "They left... either they're mad I fucked up... or they know I need time alone... I hope I don't see them right away... Right now I can't even look at them..."...
Meanwhile in a outdoor market, Matt, Aspen and Brandi shop for breakfast. Aspen sighed "He might've woke up by now, shouldn't we go back and see if he's alright?". Matt answered "Brother's really hard on himself for messing up, if we go now, it'll be worse. Let's wait until he feels like talking...", meanwhile Leo walks to the drawbridge. He stares at the sky, ducks fly overhead as he thinks "I wish I could concentrate, but the fact this happened... I feel so pissed off, and upset... I can't imagine trying to even speak now... Monsters existed before now, they mercilessly attacked for their own desires and wants, we're not too different even now. The Celestial league is only fighting, but is soften up so we can't mistakenly kill someone... It's... exactly like then... I still want to be a champion, but I... don't want to lose my mind, and hurt someone who's testing my strength.. I'll be exactly like Plasma if...". Leo turns back into Driftveil "Shit... I can't think calmly... It's so embarrassing I lost! If I could forget my... friend... I...", he suddenly hears Matt "Brother!?". Leo looks up to see his friends coming to him "Hey! ...You're shopping for breakfast?" he asks looking at the grocery bags. Aspen smiles "We're trying other stuff, since we're still here! Plus, Brandi said we should stretch the money!", Brandi adds "Yeah, I hope you guys weren't only eating fastfood up until now!". Leo laughs "We were running around fast, we only had hotel stuff and restaurant food...", Matt adds "We had too! Brother runs around so much!", Brandi sighs "That might be the reason he sprouts the wrong stuff: you guys eat like obese retards. At least try to find something healthy if you're going to travel!". Leo laughs "You're right! I always force myself to do everything! I'm not even sure while I'm still OK now...", Aspen giggled "It's because we walk everywhere! We REALLY should buy a car at some point!". Matt butts in "We don't need to get bills! We're all on vacation! Instead let's go and buy more cards as long as we're here!". The friends ate breakfast, then played around until... evening... They walk back to a Driftveil hotel, "The heck?!" Matt asks, Aspen replied "What... the fact we didn't do anything today? Heehee, we only ate and went souvenir hunting!". Leo smiles "Time passes fast when your having fun, alot of stuff happened too", Asp and Matt laughed! Brandi then asks "More importantly, are you ready to fight Clay again?", Leo replies "Yeah! I won't give up after this, I'm going to try right now!", Matt butts in "I'm so sleepy... Can't we wait? I wanna watch, but I...", Aspen giggles as he stretches "You're right, why don't we get a room together? I'll "wake you" in case you sleep in tomorrow too!". The coldworker, thought... then realized what she asked! "Ewww! No! Stay away! You're not messing with my body! Go and talk to the other workers if you're that desperate!". He stomps to his hotel room, Brandi laughs "He's such a obnoxious brat, he could at least politely say no!", Aspen laughs "I know! Too bad I chase the scaredy cats...", Brandi laughs as she walks to her room "Good night, and good luck!". Leo and Asp smile "Goodnight!", Leo then sighs "Ah... good night...". Asp looks at Leo as he slowly walks to the stairs, "Leo... Something's wrong? You always seem upbeat, even after this... is there something else bothering you?", Leo turns "I wanna fuck... It's a little unfair you ignored that I want to, and ask Matt so much,I am attracted to you as much as the others, I won't go too far, but at very least we'll both stop wondering, right?". Aspen stares... hours later Leo and Aspen lie in bed, she snuggles up to Leonard as she says "It's so big... Matt's thick, but your dick... Why can't we go all the way?", Leo replies "I don't wanna go too far... It's as if something's stopping me, Fennel asked too, but... I can't explain whats stopping it..". Aspen sits on him, "You didn't do her either? You must be waiting for a special someone...", she smiles "I wanted a special someone too... it would be nice to have kids... But back in highschool... I had trouble even making friends. I thought I wouldn't of been able to have any family, so... I had sex with everyone. It was easy to make friends then, and I started to become more confident...". Leo smiles "You don't have to have sex to make friends, you kind enough being yourself: You helped cheer for me, you're spending YOUR money on our trip, the fact that you support us like we were friends for years, shows how nice you are!". Aspen smiles "Thanks! I guess... I could've made friends if I been myself...", Leo smiles "Yeah you might be way too trusting... but your very kind", she giggles as she snuggles to him again "Thanks... I love having sex now though... I wish he'd want it too... At very least I know, you're the only male friends I have, that love me for me...", she starts falling asleep "For the 1st time... even... without... I'm satisfied...".
The next morning, Matt and Brandi talk as they walk towards the dining area... until they see Leo and Asp just now getting up? "Brother! What happened, you couldn't sleep?", "Hey... wait... you 2, your both getting up at the same time?". Leo turns around "We couldn't get to sleep easy...", Aspen smiles, "Yeah! We were kinda... nervous about the battle!". Matt stated "Don't worry, this'll be the last time we see Clay! Right Brother!? I'm so excited!", Leo replies "Yeah! Bring it!". Brandi giggled "I'm glad you guys are ready! But don't forget to eat and clean up 1st... Then we go, you don't wanna get tired in the middle of the battle!", the friends get prepared then walk to the gym! Leo excitedly smiles as Matt stared at him and Aspen... "You guys... are acting different, you haven't said much since this morning.", Leo replies "We're nervous! This leader's the 1st who's resistant to my Typing!", Aspen giggles "I tried to keep it secret, but I don't want him to freak later on... Me and Leo had sex!". Brandi smiles "I knew it!", Matt freaked "WHAT!? BROTHER! YOU CAN'T BEFORE A FIGHT! Like in sports!". Leo smiles "Don't worry, we didn't go too far.", Matt replied "You can't just do that! I'm glad she's not pregnant... right?". Brandi laughs "She's not! They just needed to forget everything for a minute," he then turns toward Leo "So when's the wedding?!". Leo laughs "We didn't go too far, plus we both made it clear... we're friends!", Matt shouted "BROTHER! You saw her... (naked) and you...". They walk in the gym, he gets quiet as there workers in the lobbey now... They rode the elevator down into the arena, then came into the tunnel.. Leo then walks to Clay "Clay, I'm ready to fight now! I'll win this time!", Clay threw his pickaxe in the dirt "A'ight, but no 1's ready to fight in just 1 day of training, ya better not be waistin' my time, brat!". Leo takes a fighting stance as he says "II WILL win! I'm not going to lose, ever again!" his friends stand on the sides, Clay takes a fighting stance too as he warned "Yer better, if ya waste my time again, I'm bannin' you from my gym until you do real trainin'". The workers get on the sides too, as the referee comes once more...
