Heroes Of Legend

Chapter 4

The next morning...

"Waahhh! It's nice out today!" Bash spoke while streaching his arms out towards the sky.

"It's too early..." Slash moaned.

The two woke up and left the hotel at noon. They had a whole 8 hours till sundown, making them rush to the next city over.

"We better get moving if we want to make it to the city of dreams." Slash spoke.

"Gotcha! Lets move!" Bash said while leaping into the air.

Now I should probably tell this story first. Bash, the 16 year old kid was always hyper as a child. He would literally jump everywhere he went. So he jumped non-stop for 3 years of his life, giving him the ability to leap at most 25 feet into the air.

After his childhood and in his teen years, he would mostly walk everywhere, but jumped when he need to go to distant places or needed to get somewhere fast. This is how most people knew Bash in Embark city, but the word of his skill didn't get outside of the city too much.

Bash, not knowing Slash didn't know, or the fact that Slash couldn't jump as high as him, has just leaped far out leaving Slash behind.

"Whoa! ...hey! WAIT UP!" Slash called out.

"Huh? Oh crap!" Bash spoke.

Bash then instantly turned around, and jumped back to Slash.

"How the hell are you able to do that!" Slash asked.

"Lets just say it's a talent, I don't feel like explaining..." Bash spoke.

"Can you teach me?" Slash asked.

"Sorry, it's a talent passed down through generations of my family." Bash spoke

No it isn't.

"Shut up!" Bash whispered to the narrator.

"Who are you talking to?" Slash asked.

"N-no one..." Bash responded.

"Okay...well can you please teach me!" Slash begged.

"I don't know...then the move wont be unique to me...can you do anything unique?" Bash asked.

"Psshh, can I do anything unique. Watch this." Slash spoke.

Slash then walked up to a tree, cracked his knuckles, and swung his hand in a diagonal motion at an incredible speed towards the tree.

The tree was cut into two, with the top half falling onto the ground.

"Holy crap! Amazing!" Bash exclaimed

"Psshh nothing to it. So can you show me how to jump very high!" Slash asked.

"How about this, i'll show you how to jump high after the tournement. We can use our unique skills in the tournement. That way, we can see who's skill is better than the other's. Good?" Bash asked

"Good!" Slash agreed.

"Alright then, lets get a move on!" Bash spoke.

The duo left the city walking on foot. While elsewhere, we see Jade in her tour bus, staring out the window.

"..." Jade sighed.

*Ring* *Ring* *Ring*

Jade's phone started to ring.

"..." Jade answered.

"Jade? At least say something when you answer your phone! Listen, we're gonna have to post-pone your tour for a couple of months. You're okay with that right? Good. Well gotta go, still have some buisiness to take care of!" Rick spoke.

"..." Jade smiled.

Jade continued to look out the window as the bus pressed on. A few moments later, the bus passed by a group of ninjas stomping on what looked and sounded like two girls screaming.

"Stop the bus!" Jade cried out.

The bus came to a screeching stop, then opened it's doors. Jade and her crew came running out, pulled out guns, then pointed them towards the group of ninjas.

The ninjas looked up, sweated a bit, then popped a smoke pellet, and dissapeared into the smoke.

What appeared to be screaming girls, turned out to be Bash and Slash, being beaten by ninjas. The two looked up all embarrased.

"Heh...I might of made a slight mistake..." Bash spoke.

"I could of handled them..." Slash spoke.

"Uh-huh, which was why you were screaming like a girl." Jade replied.

"I wasn't screaming like a girl! Anyways, what was that back there! I thought you said to go towards the left!" Slash complained.

"MY left, and you freaking said one was coming at 12 o' clock!" Bash complained.

"At night!" Slash replied.

"That doesn't even make any sense!" Bash spoke.

"You don't even make sense!" Slash argued.

"Obviously you are a bad partner!" Bash spoke.

"You're the bad partner! Those dudes showed up because of you!" Slash argued.

"WILL YOU TWO SHUT UP!" Jade yelled.

"..." Bash and Slash were silenced.

"You said that they were after Bash?" Jade asked Slash.

"Yeah, he pissed of some dude." Slash replied.

"I didn't piss him off, I found out his secret of world domination, and now he just wants to silence me." Bash replied.

"Who?" Jade asked.

"Bob, that politician guy." Bash answered.

"Bob? He wants to take over the world?" Jade questioned.

"Ugh..." Bash spoke.

Bash explained the situation of him and Slash. How they both now had to travel to D.C. to warn Bash's dad and more importantly the President of Bob's plans.

"Wouldn't it be easier to drive there? Or take a plane?" Jade asked.

"Think about it, if we took a vehicle that operated on gas, the assasins would have a clean shot to take us all out by shooting the gas tank. And if we took a plane, we would endanger everyone's lives on that plane!" Bash explained.

"You're right, that would be troublesome..." Jade replied.

"Which is why we're walking there. And it would be a whole lot easier to fight the bad guys out in the open, with elbow space." Bash spoke.

"Yeah right, more like clunched together space..." Slash complained.

"You got something to say!" Bash yelled.

"QUIET! Clearly, you two need me to keep you organized." Jade spoke.

"What?" Bash asked.

"You're kidding right? This trip is way to dangerous for a girl to go on. We can't take care of you while fighting all th-" Slash spoke smugly, but then was interrupted.

In the midst of Slash's sentence, Jade took Slash's arm then twisted into the air, then onto the ground holding him down.

"What was that?" Jade asked the two.

"Uhh...n-nevermind..." Slash spoke in pain.

"Y-your in...heh..." Bash spoke with an uncomfortable smile.

"After all, we were supposed to go out...right?" Jade asked Bash while blushing.

"Huh? ...oh yeah! I did asked to hang out didn't I?" Bash asked.

"Uh-huh!" Jade answered while smiling.

"So we should get going to the next town right?" Slash asked while getting up.

"Right, lets move then!" Bash replied.

"Okay then...oh, you guys go home without me then." Jade told the bus crew.

"Okay then." One answered.

"Alright, careful Jade!" Another spoke.

"Don't worry! I got Bash and a gun!" Jade replied.

"What about me...?" Slash questioned.

"..." Jade glared at Slash.

"We're all friends here, so lets get going!" Bash spoke as he started walking.

So the trio left for the next town over with Jade as a new member to their team. As for the clueless leader, Bash was still getting closer to D.C!

"Hey! Whats that supposed to mean!" Bash yelled at the narrator.

Sorry! Until next time!

"HEY!" Bash yelled out.
