"Extensive training - fights back"

Those words echoed in my head as I tried to think of a way to get rid of that nurse. One throw of a knife and she would catch it even with her back turned. I knew I needed extra training and unfortunately, my brother was too "busy" (in reality, he's just cuddling with Andres, even at home, you don't know where else they cuddle), although he suggested that I should join the Martial Arts Club.

Seems helpful, I thought when he told me that. I walked across the corridor of the second floor and found the Martial Arts Club. I took a peek and there stood the leader, Yong Soo Im from South Korea, supervising the members as a pair sparred and another patiently waited for their turn.

The pair sparring were Jun Li Bai from Macau, who had short dark brown hair, wore glasses and wore a long black changsam and white pants (for a second there, I thought he wouldn't be able to kick in those clothes) and Li Xiao Chun from Hong Kong, who had choppy brown hair and wore a burgundy duangua with black piping and oversized sleeves and dark brown trousers. The other pair sitting on cushions were Somchai Shinawatra from Thailand, who had wavy dark brown hair, wore glasses and wore a white jacket with matching slacks, a shoulder sash and some medals and Neeraja Patel from India, who had dark hair that was combed hack and a Tilaka on the center of his forehead. The leader, Yong Soo, had short black-brown hair with a curl on the right side of his head (which strangely had a face in its center for some reason) and wore a white and navy blue hanbok with long, oversized sleeves. All five of them wore a white headband with some Japanese text on it.

I entered the club and got the attention of Yong Soo, who turned around to face me. "Annyeonghaseyo (Hello)! Welcome to the Martial Arts Club! What brings you here?" I asked for the club information. "We study hand-to-hand combat and practice self-defense techniques! If you join our club, I guarantee that you'll be able to defend yourself from anyone that might try to hurt you! If you think you've got what it takes, you're welcome to spar with any of our members at any time, even if you're not in the club, da-ze!" He answered, ending it with a catchphrase. "Are you interested?"

I nodded. "Yes I am." Yong Soo beamed and grabbed a spare white headband and gave it to me. "Hwansangjeog (Fantastic)! You are now an official member of the warriors*! I'm looking forward to teaching you everything I know, da-ze!" I tied the headband on my head and bowed in front of him as a sign of respect.

"Remember to show up here once a week!"

"I will."

I cracked my knuckles as I left. With a Martial Arts Master training me, I'll be able to take down that nurse.
