At Red Fountain another portal opened and everyone stepped out. When they looked around Saladin, Faragonda, Codatorta and Griselda were waiting for them.
"Riven you are in…Derek?" froze Saladin
"Hey old man." He smirked
"Riven do you"
"Yes sir, I do." He nodded
"He's my father and it was Zelody who was the cause of my mother's death." He sighed
"Well than I'm sorry for ever doubting you Derek." Smiled Saladin
"Just like when I was in school, eh?" he smirked
"No, when you were in school you beat up the other guys." Laughed Saladin
"What they got in my way." He shrugged laughing
"Seniors?" he asked
"As I said." He smirked
"You were a freshmen." He replied
"And I still won." He smiled proudly
"You are still as arrogant as you were back than." Laughed Codatorta
"Ya, like you." He smirked
"So where ya been buddy?" smiled Codatorta
"Here and there, I've been training dragons and other creatures." He shrugged like it was nothing
"You were always were one for danger." Sighed Codatorta
"Just admit it, we both were and I still am." He laughed
"So how long will you be staying Derek?" smiled Faragonda
"I haven'tthought that far yet." He shrugged laughing
"Do you ever?" laughed Griselda
"Na, so why start now?" he smirked
"Man, old people are boring." Whispered Stella
"I'm going for a ride." Mumbled Riven
"How about a race, son?" smirked Derek
"Derek, the boy's young and hasn't had a chance to live yet."Laughed Codatorta
"If he's my son, he shouldn't do too bad." He laughed
"Fine, but I'm not going easy on you old man." He smirked
"We'll see how eager you'll be to call me old man, after I kick your butt at racing." He smirked as he walked passed Riven
"Ya, right." He laughed arrogantly
"Like father, like son." Laughed everyone as Riven and his father walked out of the room
Outside on the ground Riven and Derek were both on leva bikes and they had their helmets on.
"You two ready!" yelled Codatorta as the guys nodded
"On your marks get sey...GO!" he yelled as both Riven and Derek speeded away
"Who do you thinks gonna win?" asked Faragonda to Saladin
"Well when Derek was still in school he was the best, but after nineteen years I don't know." he sighed
"So it should be a good race." she smiled
"Yep." he laughed
Riven and Derek were neck and neck and they were taking their last turn back to the group of friends watching them.
"Derek won!" yelled Codatorta
"It's okay Riven." smiled Musa as Riven took his helmet off
"Not bad, for an old man." he laughed
"Ya, well this old man beat ya." he laughed
"Good race." he smiled as they shook hands
"Ya, you too son." he smiled as they let go
"Oh girls we have to get back to Alfea." smiled Faragonda
"Okay, bye guys." smiled Stella, Bloom, Flora, Layla and Tecna as they followed Ms. Faragonda and Griselda
"See ya Riven." smiled Musa as she ran after her friends
"So bro, you were saying before why you haven't asked her out." smiled Sky as Saladin and Codatorta left leaving the guys and Derek talking.
"I...um...well..."
"You mean you two aren't together?" sighed his father as he shook his head
"Nope." sighed Brandon
"You really are just like me." he sighed as he put his right hand on Riven's shoulder
"What's the problem?" he smiled
