Chapter 28
Bandit's POV
"On your mark! Get set! GO!" Brick shouts out and we all quickly sprint.
It wasn't long until both me to pass Bear. So Bear and Big Billy is neck a neck, as I am sprinting I heard a bicycle that pedals along my side. I turn around to see Brick riding the bicycle that is bright colors of pink, blue and green. I couldn't help but laugh really loud.
"Focus on the mission! We have got to win. Now go into that cafe and order an American Coffee." Brick order me by shouting into a microphone which is really loud.
"Got it!" I shout back and run into the cafe, Brick stop his bike and park it to take a good view of what I am doing. Big Billy came next and Bear was last to enter.
Everyone quickly ordered American Coffee but in the end, we have to wait. So we all decide to have a nice chat while waiting.
"I still can't believe that Brick is actually wearing that for the whole day." Bear use her hand to cover her eyes as Brick's shirt is too bright.
"Hahahaha!" Big Billy starts to laugh at Bear's reaction to Brick's shirt.
"WELL! YOU SHOULD HAVE TOLD MY SISTER THAT! IT WAS HER IDEA!" Brick shouts in angry causing the rest of us to laugh really hard.
"At least you will be getting a lot of attention from now on," I said while patting Brick's back.
"This is so not funny." Brick brush my hand away.
"But… still… can't you be gentlemen and let a lady have to American Coffee first?" Bear said while making a really innocent face.
"Wait… didn't we already let you go first when we run?" I said.
"But… I'm a very fragile lady you know…" Bear said in a very helpless voice.
I can see Big Billy blushing at Bear's cute reaction.
"Well… Since you said you are a lady…then… no can do!" I answer simply.
"WHAT!" Bear reacts to my answer.
"You are older than me so… you can handle it yourself." I said, "And anyone… haven't you ever heard of taking care of younger one too?" I innocently make a comeback while standing up. Both me and Brick high-five each other because of the comeback.
"One American Coffee!" The waiter shouts and immediately everyone broke into a run for the cup which I got first because I stand up in time.
"Bye bye lady~" I wave to Bear innocently as I quickly run with the tray and the cookie. Brick go outside and quickly get on his colorful bicycle.
When I reach my end I saw Boomer getting ready to pass the baton which is a recording tape of our MV to Boomer when…
"Wait! You have to finish drinking the coffee and throw that cup of coffee into that bin." Brick shout into the microphone and point to a green bin. I sigh and start drinking but… IT'S REALLY HOT!
"AAAHHH! HOT!" I scream in pain.
Not long Bear came out and saw me drinking coffee which causes her to immediately brighten. Big Billy wasn't far behind and he was already drinking the coffee as he is running. I guess he must have overheard Brick.
Bear finish her coffee before me as me and Boomer are sharing the coffee. Bear later tries to throw the cup into the bin but… her aim was really bad. I can tell that Brat is really frustrated. I finished my coffee before Big Billy. And I quickly took aim which was in the bin in one shot. Boomer cheers and took the baton and start to drag a giant dog with him.
Boomer's POV
I am loving my part of the race since I get to be with a dog. The dog nicely obeys me as he is running wild down the direction that I want. I look behind me to see Lil'Arturo is behind and Brat was the farthest away from me.
I guess Bear must have a very bad aim…
I look ahead of me to see Butch and BC is already in a piggyback position. I find it to be weird since I didn't expect Butch and BC to cooperate with each other.
I nicely hand the baton to Butch and he just sprints off with BC behind him. Lil' Arturo came after me and gave his baton to Ace. As Ace is carrying Grubber behind his back. Brat didn't take long to pass her baton to PPNKG's manager, Blaze.
For some reason, I had this feeling that Berserk and Blaze are dating each other or something. Since Blaze looks really comfortable with Berserk on his back. Maybe it was just my imagination.
Butch's POV
I am so glad that we get to leave that area since Berserk was talking about how she was so worried about her weight. While Blaze was trying to calm Berserk down, Ace just keep on glaring at me and I just glare back. In the end, I got smack on the head by no other than BC. BC also order me to carry him. I was going to protest but BC said if I complain it means that I am a wimp. I just obediently carry BC.
To tell you the truth… BC is lighter than I thought. I did say that and also earn myself a smack on the head too. For some reason, I feel quite comfortable carrying BC.
"Come on go faster!" BC shouts.
"I know already shortie!" I shout back as I quickly run faster before the red light.
We both pass the red light street nicely. I look behind to see that the other two team wasn't luck since they were stuck at the red light. I chuckle seeing Ace's losing face.
RING! RING!
'Wait… where did that bell come from…' I think to myself. Suddenly BC burst into a laughter. I turn around to see some random biker is riding a bright colorful bicycle while wearing a bright color shirt.
'That guy sure has weird taste in clothing.' I think to myself
But as the biker came closer I look closely to see Brick is the biker. I couldn't help but laugh since the bike and the shirt with Brick's face were really funny.
"NICE BIKE BRICK!" I shout as I am running.
"Focus on the game." Brick shout back as we finally reach our destination.
I was going to hand the baton to Blaine but before that, I laugh first. Since Blaine is wearing a penguin flippers. Brick also chuckle.
"Look at yourself first Brick." Blaine counter back while chuckle.
I was going to hand Blaine the baton properly but Brick stop me.
"Wait!" Brick quickly shout, "You have to answer my question first."
"What!" Both me and BC shouts at the same time.
"Just listen carefully, the question is Electricity is _ and the crude material is _. You should see this answer along the way you know." Brick said while having a big smirk on his face.
"I didn't look around!" BC panicked, "I was too busy laughing at Brick to notice."
"We should go back then," I said and quickly lift BC into a piggyback ride. This cause a great heart attack to BC since he wasn't expecting it. When I was carrying him, I can feel his body temperature suddenly increase.
'Weird…Why does his heartbeat have to beat so fast! This really going to make me nervous.' I think to myself as I can feel his heartbeats are beating faster than the first piggyback ride. But that isn't the only strange thing.
Brick's POV
I am currently waiting anxiously for the other player to come since I can feel many people are taking a picture of me. I have never felt so embarrass in my life. I bet my mom is going to hang this picture of me in some part of the house. And I have to look at it for the rest of my life.
"GET AWAY FROM US YOU GGG!" Berserk is shouting at Ace.
'My sister can be very competitive…(—_—)' I give my sister a blank look when she arrives.
"What is the question?" Berserk immediately asked.
"What are the last three digits of HanJun Electric's Customer care number? There are three digits. You should see this when you pass by." I answer which cause Berserk to groan.
"I am going to have to guess." Berserk thinks carefully.
Then Ace arrives with Grubber.
"What is the number of that bus stop that you just pass by? There are five digits. You should see this when you pass by," I immediately asked them a question. They just gave me a blank look. Ace sigh and pick up Grubber and quickly went back to the bus stop.
"555?" Berserk asked
"No," I answered.
"345?"
"No."
"647?"
"No. (—_—)""
"945?"
"No (`Д´)!"
"217?"
"No ( ╬◣ 益◢)!" I am starting to get annoyed of this and Blaze can tell too.
"321?"
"No (;¬_¬)" I sigh as Berserk keeps on guessing.
"ARG!" Blaze shout out in pain. "Just go back then."
"Fine…" Berserk sigh in defeat but didn't stop to say one last three digits, "123?"
Blaze face-palm at the answer.
"Correct." I was really surprised to see my sister guess correctly. Blaze looks at me in surprise, as he thinks that I am crazy. I showed him my cue card with the number '123' as the answer in bold.
"YAY!" She screams in joy and hug Blaze.
Then Butch and BC came back to say their answer. As Butch looks really exhaust.
"Electricity is domestic and the crude material is imported." They both answer in sync.
"Correct," I said in impress.
Brute has already taken the baton away and Blaine quickly took the baton follow Brute behind closely.
"Wow…Blaine sure is fast." Butch whistles to see Blaine is catching up Brute even though Brute has a head start.
Ace and Grubber came back to say their answer in sync "14-307"
"Correct." I just look plainly at them.
Ace quickly hand the baton to Snake and Snake also sprint really fast. Snake is really fast with those flipper causing the GGG to be closely behind the PPNKG.
I quickly get onto the colorful bicycle to catch up with the other three runners that are wearing flippers, as it is my duty to tell the viewer of each racer current state of the race.
Blaine's POV
I hate this so much right now. I am currently in the lead since Brute accidentally trip during her lead. And I am not a gentleman so I just run pass her, but Brute still manage to get up fast enough to be on my tail.
As I am running in flipper of pain Brick suddenly was by my side.
"You sure look happy to be wearing that bright clothe and wearing that colorful bicycle," I comment.
"At least I don't have to suffer wearing flipper while running," Brick said back at me while he is grinning.
I look up ahead to see that there is a white line to say that we can take out our slipper. I quickly cross it and take out the slipper. Throwing it away sloppily and just run to the station where the big screen tv is. Brick turn to the other to see the result through the screen.
Brute and Snake are both closely behind me, as they run I can see them fighting with each other to be at the second place.
"Get out of my way!" Snake shouts.
"You should get out of my way!" Brute shouts back.
'I am so glad that I wasn't behind them.' I sigh a relief to myself.
I have been barging in through many doors going to the shortcut but I couldn't open the last final door, this causes both Brute and Snake to catch up with me. All of us tried to open the door but it couldn't. That is because the door is locked, so we have to take the long way.
All three of us are shoving each other trying to get to the control room. It is really dangerous since we are all running down the stair. I still can't believe that Brute have so much power. I almost forgot that she was a girl for a moment.
'I can't loose just yet!' I think to myself as I shove the other racer.
Buttercup's POV
"Now this big tv screen will determine the winner of today marathon race," Brick shout into the microphone. "In 3…2…1!"
I look at the screen anxiously with the other member praying that it would be their team. I hope that Blaine didn't fail us. I have to go through Butch carrying me, he can't fail the team.
The screen turn black to reveal the winner. Everyone's eyes grow wide at the winner's music video on the screen.
"NOOOOOOOO!"
