Chapter 6: Thoughts and a Thug.

Disclaimer: I do not own Maple story. Sorry lawyers.

A/N: It's been two months since I last wrote. Sorry, sorry!! I'm a busy lady.

Now on for the long awaited chapter 6!

"So," Yumi asked, "which way do you want to go?" They had just walked out of the Inn they were staying at for the night after the 'incident'.

"It doesn't matter which way we go." He replied.

"Well, aren't you helpful." She said sarcastically, "I say we go fight the easy monsters in the Hills East of Henesys. Then we could try fighting pigs!"

"Whatever." He answered, not really paying any attention to her. Yumi started telling him about her life story, her house, her old friends, how stupid her mother was, and so on. Jade was thinking about other things. Who the heck was that Bandit? He seemed so…familiar. As if I have seen him before.

Suddenly he heard Yumi say, "Jade, watch out!" and bang! He ran into some kid in the middle of his thoughts and fell into the ground.

Jade looked up at the guy. He's a warrior, Jade thought. He stood up and stuck out his hand. "My name's Jade."

The warrior looked at it and smirked, "Do you actually think I'm going to shake your hand?"

"Actually, yes." Jade snapped, "Because that is what polite people do."

"I'm not shaking your dirty thief hands!" the warrior screeched.

"What do you mean, 'dirty' thief hands?" Jade inquired.

"Well, I stopped by Kerning City and man, it was a dump!"

"Most cities are dirty, dumbass."

Yumi pulled on Jade's arm. "Let's get out of here…we have training to do..."

"Is that your girlfriend?" the warrior sneered.

"What? Me?" Yumi said, pointing to herself, "No way. I just met him yesterday."

"Right…"

Yumi was about to open her mouth when Jade pulled her back.

"Let's leave this loser."

"Hey, get back here!" He drew back his fist and, closing his eyes, he tried to punch Jade.

"Owwww!" The warrior opened his eyes to see he didn't punch the no-good thief; he had punched his magician friend. She was right in front of the thief, cringing in pain.

"Yumi, you okay?" Jade bent down to the level of the hurting magician. "Why the heck did you do that?"

"Because, Jade, you are a weakling and when that punch hit you, you would've been unconscious and then I would have to drag you to the hospital. And that would not be fun for me."

"I am not weak Yumi!"

"Whatever." She walked up to the warrior. "Hey, jerk, that punch sucked. Here's how you really hurt someone." She took her foot and kicked the warrior in the balls.

"I think warriors need padding down there." she said, as the warrior cringed in pain and rolled on the floor in the fetal position.

She went down on the ground and whispered into the warrior's ear, "That was only the beginning. If you punch me again, I will kick you ten times harder in the same spot."

Yumi got up, and looked at the still-amazed Jade. "Are you coming to train with me or not?"

He nodded and when he caught up to her, he commented on her fight, "When did you get so strong?"

"When you started to be so weak."

"What gives you the idea I am weak?" he shouted at her.

"You didn't kick him in the balls."

"You little-"

"Do you want the same treatment?" Yumi said, cutting him off.

"Bitch." And then Jade started running.

"Hey, get back here! I have to kick your butt! Jade, you are totally dead!"

A/n: a bit of cursing D Next chapter: Training. Please review! Very short...I know. Next chapter is going to be a bit bigger. But believe me, when the plot starts happening, it will be longer.
