Beginning:
One of the main advantages of the prison dimension where the dragon gods and other form of creatures reside in is based on the fact that time as it is flows is out of sync with the outside world. One day outside could either mean a month or a year. In this case, 'time' would depend approriately upon the three young women: Misaki Shokuhou, Seria Kumokawa, and Ayu Mitsuari, wearing approriate sportswear for this occasion as provided by Dr. Strange.
And as of right now, they are practically undergoing Physical Education classes under Dr. Strange's supervision.
In one environment which is that of a beach, Kamijou, Robin, Kumokawa, Mitsuari, and Shokuhou (with sweat dropping intensely due to difficulty and dehydration as a result of a lack of physical fitness) were jogging as the sea swepts through the sand, with seagulls flying on the lower orange clear skies, with the sun setting on the background adorning their faces. In the same environment, Kamijou and Robin were running fast, with Kumokawa and Mitsuari coming from behind, with Shokuhou severely lagging behind, tripping and falling almost immediately, to which everyone begins to notice after a few moments. And then came the seagulls that were gathering around her in short order.
"Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh!"
"Ah!"
Kamijou and Robin would both look to each other, sporting bewilderd expressions, before eventually beginning to sprint towards Shokuhou's position, shooing away the seagulls. Then the both of them would begin to assist Shokuhou up from the sand. Kumokawa in turn was laughing tremendously at Shokuhou's predicament while Mitsuari was sporting a bewildered and disbelieving expression.
Dr. Strange, Clea, Bats, IT, and many other dragons were sporting bewildered and facepalming expressions due to Shokuhou's misfortune.
"...(Sigh). When Onna-Musha had once said that Misaki Shokuhou had extremely bad physical aptitude, I almost never seem to expect it were this bad. Almost. This is going to be a long day," Dr. Strange pinched his eyes out.
In one environment which is that of a classroom, Dr. Strange was teaching and describing to the three young women: Misaki Shokuhou, Seria Kumokawa, and Ayu Mitsuari, who were all taking down notes about the many types of martial arts and their respective philosophies. Examples include karate, kung fu, taekwondo, kickboxing, aikido, and many others. They would also be taught about the many types of sports, their origins, backgrounds, and how they were to be applied both in theory and in practice. Examples include basketball, association football (also known as football or soccer), volleyball, tennis, and many others.
In one environment which is that of a gym, Kumokawa, Mitsuari, Shokuhou (with difficulty) were now wearing boxing gloves as they begins to punch the punching bag that is installed in one part of the gym. Kamijou and Robin, both wearing their own boxing gloves, were watching them, especially Shokuhou, with arms crossed.
Dr. Strange was sporting the look of a concerned teacher who were watching the progress of their student, stopping Shokuhou a few times in order to make room for breathing, conjuring up Gatorade bottles for her to use and drink. Also in between punches, Dr. Strange was teaching her where to punch said punching bag with calculated strikes, demonstrating it through punching said punching bag with a few jabs, crosses, hooks, and uppercuts.
A few moments later, Shokuhou (with difficulty) was doing bounce steps and jumping stances in order to find the proper balance in relation to the weight of her body when it comes to both offense and defense. She was also doing dynamic warm ups such as Jumping Jacks, Walking Knee Hugs, Arm Circles, Side Shuffles, Backpedaling, Lunges, Squats, Leg Swings, Inchworms, and Karaoke. She was also doing static warm ups such as Overhead triceps stretch, Biceps stretch, Cobra Pose, Seated butterfly stretch, and Head-to-knee forward bend.
Another few moments later, Shokuhou was now lying down on the ground, so very Kamijou and Robin were watching, looking at each other with concerned and bewildered expressions before turning to look at Shokuhou.
"...Wow, you really do suck at this, you know that, starry eyes," Kumokawa said with an amused smirk, looking at Shokuhou from above, with both hands placed to her waist. Mitsuari in turn was right beside her, sporting a bewildered expression, wondering as to whether or not was this person really a Level 5 due to the fact that simple physical fitness is enough to tire her out.
"...S...Shut...Up...," Shokuhou panted heavily, sweat appearing throughout her face and body, clearly exhausted. Then she would grab a floating Gatorade bottle that Dr. Strange would provide to her, drinking it in turn.
In one environment which is that of a basketball stadium, Kumokawa, Mitsuari, and Shokuhou (with difficulty) were just dribbling their balls continuously while walking back and forth from the court.
Kamijou and Robin were seated near the audience chair alongside Bats and Clea. IT and other dragons were all watching the training session from nearby, with a few casual conversations being heard in relation to what is happening. Dr. Strange was wearing referee clothing, with the Cloak of Levitation hovering a few meters, carrying two sports flags and waving them in an act of cheering the three young women on.
A few moments later...
"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Just what kind of strenous activity is this?!"
Shokuhou was currently being hit by a couple of basketball machines that were firing each non-lethal strike at her. She tries to dodge every moment that she can, but in most cases, she either get's hit by the ball, or facefaulted or slipped to the ground.
"Ahahahahahahahaha. It would appear that victory is mine, barbie doll reject. ⭐," Kumokawa raised her right hand to perform a V-shaped sign and strike a confident pose, with her right eye closed, the same one that Shokuhou would often use to do when things get her way, and was now being used as a form of mockery on Kumokawa's part.
Mitsuari could only facepalm at this point, wondering as to whether or not she should dislike Shokuhou due to their past that seem interconnected, or if she would just pity the poor Level 5 at this point and wondered as to how in the world did she became the way that she is, for even she can do simple exercises and dodge the admittedly slow basketballs who were coming at her with the trajectory of a snail. But Shokuhou seem to be the epitome of bad luck and improper physical fitness at this point, to her bewildering realization.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH! Some-Somebody save me," Shokuhou would say, as her arms would flap across the river and would sport a fearful and anxious expression, with Kamijou and Robin trying to help her out.
"S-Shokuhou-san, please hold still. You're not really drowning and the level of the river isn't that deep," Robin sported an exasperated expression.
"Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!," Kumokawa was laughing, putting her arms on her chest while Mitsuari could only sport a look of disbelief, not providing any comment at this point.
"Oh dear," Clea sported a sympathetic expression, turning towards her husband. "Stephen..."
"I know, dear, I know," Dr. Strange sported an exasperated expression, heavily sighing.
As time seemingly goes on at this particular dimension, Misaki Shokuhou, seemingly known for being the worse example of physical aptitude that one could ever see, was surprisingly improving little by little. Dr. Strange had been keeping a close eye on each of her weak points, noting it all down from his brilliant mind. And for that, he would request the aid of Kamijou and Robin when it came to slowly improve Shokuhou's physical aptitude. It also helps that Shokuhou seem to be fully determined to improve herself, if only to see to it that Kumokawa eats her own words. Kumokawa in turn appeared to accept the challenge as she too would help Shokuhou in her own way at least.
Somewhere in the forest, Kumokawa, Mitsuari, and Shokuhou (with less difficulty) would jogging from place to place, hopping the stones that were placed on the river. They would pass by the long old trees that littered throughout the entire forest, and they would see the misty mountains from the background, and the dragons that would seemingly glide and reside there.
Kamijou was now sporting headgear and sparring gloves as he was now parrying each strike from Shokuhou as she punches with jabs, crosses, hooks, and uppercuts.
A few moments later in passing, Shokuhou was punching the punching bag with a few jabs. crosses, hooks, and uppercuts in moderate speed. Another few moments later, she was seen lifting two Dumbbells with moderated strength. Another few moments later, she was seen jumping up and down with a jumping rope. Another few moments later, Shokuhou was using a staff as she makes elegants move, twisting back, forth, and sideways.
"She seems to be doing a bit better than the last few days," Kamijou said, sporting a smile.
"Oh kouhai, I think I'll be the judge of that one," Kumokawa said, sporting an amused smirk.
"Move your hips and fists a bit, goldie, like this," Kumokawa said, putting both of her hips to their proper position, raising her right hand that was clenched into a fist, while the left hand, clenched to a fist, is raised downwards, place near the left side of the waist. And then, she would move her left hand upwards while her right hand is placed downwards.
"...You're enjoying this, aren't you?," Shokuhou, sporting an exasperated expression, was copying Kumokawa's movements to a tea, as much as she is physically able to.
In one environment that was that of a baseball stadium, somewhere in the field, Shokuhou begins to hit the baseball that was shot by a baseball machine, making a run for it as she sprints and circles around the field while the ball was flying towards the air.
"Dorothy II is going. Going," Robin said, using the zooming function of his mask to see the baseball flying throught the air.
Then she finally reaches the base, with Kamijou declaring 'safe'.
The dragons from the baseball stadium that would serve as the audience from the background were cheering with harmonious roars.
In one environment that was that of an Olympic-sized swimming pool, Shokuhou was able to swim with ease, reaching towards the finish line. with her pulling Kamijou to the water by the short as he in turns get's wet by the water...
"WOAH!"
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
...With Shokuhou laughing at his predicament, which would then be followed by Robin, Bats, Kumokawa, and Mitsuari who were also laughing, the latter two ladies being at the same swimming pool as Shokuhou. Kamijou in turn was slowly rising from the water with a raised eyebrow, with his face wet.
"Fu. Fu. Fu," Clea was softly giggling, with her right hand covering her mouth while Dr. Strange and IT were just shaking their heads in amusement.
Somewhere in the beach, Kamijou, Robin, Kumokawa, Mitsuari, and Shokuhou (not as difficult as before) were jogging as the sea swepts through the sand, with seagulls flying on the lower skies, with the artificial sun setting on the background adorning their faces.
By the time they finished running, they head towards the sea that was flowing near the shoreline as they play and splash each other with water, with Shokuhou sporting a smile on her face. At that point, Shokuhou begins to hug Kamijou, much to the latter's surprise who in turn accept said hug, as they both begin to smile and laugh wholeheartedly.
"Ah, what the?," Kamijou sported a surprised expression.
"Hehehe. Got you, Kamijou," Shokuhou said, sporting an amused expression.
"Ah, no fair, AU-girl," Kumokawa sported an amused expression, splashing the water current to Shokuhou who got wet in turn.
"Why you!," Shokuhou sported an exasperated and amused expression, splashing the water current to Kumokawa who got wet in turn.
And from somewhere a few meters away, Dr. Strange, Clea, Bats, and IT could only watch with smiles on their faces, the first three of whom were seen relaxing on their beach chairs.
