Sick Of You
Chapter 4
Raimundo was walking down the hall, to reunite with the others in the dinning room, and eat breakfast. He certainly loved Saturdays on the Temple. All of the day was going to be on training, so he needed to get a huge solid breakfast.
When he reached the dinning room, the others where already sitting, waiting.
"Eh? Who's turn is to make breakfast?" He asked confused. They took turns to make breakfast, and Raimundo was certain it wasn't his turn…
At that moment, came Anna, And Master Fung, carrying the breakfast. You could see revolted eggs, yellow and looking delicious, not burned, hash browns, sausage, bread, bacon, muffing, crackers and butter. Dojo, was trying to move a bowl, with juice inside.
Raimundo took little of everything. He didn't know who made them, but with the smell it was giving out, he certainly didn't care. As soon as he took a bite, he let out a gasp.
"WHO MADE THIS? It's delicious! Tasty!" He exclaimed, eating more. The others, also took a bite, and agreed.
"Anna made it Raimundo" Said Master Fung, also choosing his breakfast. Raimundo diverted his attention to Anna, and asked:
"You did? Why? Aren't you supposed to be the guest, and we to make you as comfortable as possible?"
"I-I would like to earn my keep… A-and I like cooking so… It-it's no problem at all…" She said, again with her head bowed down and blushing.
"Hey, if you like cookin', I don't mind as long as it's this tasty!" Said Clay.
"Yeah!"
"Yes, this is most tasty"
Raimundo had yet another thing to add, besides being a blushing machine, and shy, she was a good cook. Ahh… Imagine life with a cook just like her… He might like this place a little bit more!
After they where done eating, and complimenting the chef, they went outside to train.
"Today, you shall be sparring with a partner. You might use Shen Gon Wu, but the object is to let your opponent unharmed, and without weapons." Instructed Master Fung, throwing them bamboo spears.
Raimundo decided to use Sword of the Storm, Claydecided on theThird Arm Sash, Omi the Orb of Tornami, and Kimiko theStar Hanabi.
Raimundo was going to make sure he was up against Clay. He felt like he had unfinished business with him since the last one he flunked.
Clay just grinned. He knew what was going inside the head of Raimundo and he was ready for everything he could throw at him.
They looked at each other, and bowed, before taking fighting position. It was Raimundo who started.
"Sword of the Storm!" He said, making air go straight at Clay, who was blocking with the Bamboo.
"Third Arm Sash: Earth!" Screamed Clay, making it into a huge boulder like a fist, and hitting Raimundo with it. Raimundo went flying backwards, letting go of his signature Wu.
Raimundo was angry. The fist-boulder hit him straight in the stomach; making him felt like everything he ate was not there anymore. He would have to eat more at Mid-day. But first, he was going to take revenge on what Clay did.
"Wind!" he used his element to fly upwards, above Clay, where he let himself fall, with the bamboo ready to strike.
Clay used his bamboo in a blocking position, while he used the sash to search for the Sword of the Storm. He was going to beat Raimundo with his own element. Raimundo was putting all his weight into the bamboo. He was sure he could break Clay's defenses.
He felt his bamboo collide with Clay's, and felt something breaking. He did it! He broke Clay's Bamboo!
"Sword of the Storm!"
'What!' thought a shocked Raimundo, flying backward again, but this time not letting go of his bamboo. He certainly didn't see that one coming.
"Had enough?" Asked Clay with a smirk on his face.
"You wish!" Said Raimundo smirking right back.
"Third Arm Sash!" Said Clay, aiming to grab Raimundo's only weapon, the bamboo. Raimundo saw this, and grinned.
As soon as the Sash grabbed the bamboo, and pulled, Raimundo held on tight. He prepared his right leg, and kicked Clay square on the chest, making him fly backward too.
Somehow, their Sparring match turned to a real fight. Master Fung noticed this.Warriors bonded when they where sparring or fighting.He decide to let them fight, yet, he would stay to watch incase something went wrong.
Chase Young was kneeling. He must certainly say he never thought he would actually do it.
"You've done well, Chase Young," Boomed a voice filled with malice. "Soon, their elements shall be mine. Make sure you discover their weaknesses. After I'm done with them, you can continue your sick obsession with the bald one" Although, he couldn't see his face, you could tell he was smirking.
Chase Young Nodded and bowed, exiting the room, wearing a smirk himself too.
They where now exhausted, and their bamboos sword, were the only weapon they had left. Their clothes where ripped, they held some slashes that where bleeding, and their breathing was raspy.
They looked at each other, and nodded, before falling backwards.
The others came rushing in. Although, they haven't fainted, they where breathing really hard.
"That was… huff… A great one… huff… partner…" had said Clay between breaths.
"You too… huff… Clay"
"YOU BOTH ARE IDIOTS!" screamed Kimiko.
"Why…?"
"Master Fung clearly said to spar, not to fight" Said Omi.
"Is okay Kimiko and Omi" Master Fung said, "As punishment, they will scrub the great hall, before going to bed"
"What! Can't you see we are tired here!" Exclaimed Raimundo, sitting. Clay too did the same.
"I said anytime today. As you can see, you are starting to recover energies, Young One. When you are feeling better, come inside to get lunch" With that, Master Fung, Omi and Kimiko left.
Clay and Raimundo stared at each other, before laughing.
Anna was preparing lunch, when she saw two heads missing.
"Eh? Where's Clay-San and Raimundo-San?" She said, looking from fight to left in the table.
Kimiko smiled. She had taught her those words of respect. The day before, she had been calling everyone with Miss and Mister, and she thought they all sounded like old people. With the suffix that came from her homeland, was definitely better sounding. Plus, it made her feel just like home. (1)
"They are both outside" Spoke Kimiko, "They where being idiots and got themselves tired."
Anna let out a gasp at this, and started to pick some plates, and filling them with food. The others where seeing this with curiosity, before Omi decided to kill the cat.
"Where are you going with those?"
"I'm gonna bring them energy!" She said before going out, in directions of the training grounds.
Clay and Raimundo where sitting. They couldn't stand up, and they where both hungry.
It was Raimundo who noticed someone coming behind Clay. He motioned it to Clay, who looked back, and saw Anna carrying a tray of food. The food smelled great, so it gave him an excuse for drooling.
When she neared, Raimundo asked:
"Why are you bringing us food?"
"Don't complain" Scolded Clay, grinning.
Anna smiled. "Well, it will be a lot easier if you eat. That way, your energy will come back better!" She served them their food, which they ate like no tomorrow.
Anna smiled again, before going to bring them more food.
