Mikayla POV
I was helping Boomer and Boz with their fight stances when I saw Brady and Indigo walk back outside out of the corner of my eye. I turned to watch them for a moment. Brady gave Indigo a hug before she walked off. Slight jealousy burned in me, but I knew she was just his friend so I turned back to the two kings in front of me. "Alright guys, since you are using the bamboo sticks after the little "Accident" earlier, I'm going to teach you how to use your environment." The two brothers nodded before I led them over to a rock in the courtyard.
"Now, let's start with you Boz, since Boomer already learned some of this when he was in fight school with Brady for about two weeks. Since you are basically part monkey, we can use that as an advantage. You have to play your strengths. You can use your monkey abilities to get up high and drop onto the enemy from above if needed. You're also good at tracking things, right?" Boz nodded. "Then we can use that as well." I searched around for something to use so I could help Boz with his tracking ability when I thought of an idea.
"Brady, come over here!" I called to the third king who hopped up from his spot and walked over to us. "Yes?" Brady questioned as he walked up to us. "I need you to go get a banana out of the kitchen and hide it somewhere in the castle. Can you do that in about five to ten minutes? It's to help Boz's tracking skills." Brady nodded. "Do you want me to do something for Boomer as well?" I nodded this time. "Yes, that would be a good idea." Brady smiled before rushing off into the castle. I then turned to the two boys next to me.
"Alright then, while we are waiting for Brady, what are your strengths Boomer?" Boomer didn't even hesitate before he answered, "My awesome dance moves are my strength." He then started doing some wacky dance that was worse than some people say mine is. "Boomer, dancing is not going to help you in battle." I held out my hand to stop him. Boomer stopped dancing and glared at me. "How do you know that, hmm? Didn't your dancing save us from the giant snake lady? That was a battle!"
"She right Boomer. Dancing isn't going to help you in the battle that is coming." We all jumped at Brady's voice. "But bro, it has to be!" Boomer complained. Brady shook his head. "Maybe for another day, but for now you need to learn how to use weapons and things like that. Unless we go into battle and you and the enemies start randomly dancing the exact same dance that seem like it was choreographed and music randomly starts playing like in High School Musical I don't think it's going to help." Boomer sighed. "Fine. What weapon are we learning about today?"
I looked at Brady. "Are the objects where they need to be?" Brady nodded. "I hid a banana for Boz and a slice of cheesecake for Boomer." I turned to the two boys in front of me. "Did you guys hear that?" They both nodded. "Alright, you two have ten minutes. Find your items and bring them to the throne room."
"Do not eat them!" Brady reminded his brothers who sighed but nodded anyways. "Ready, set go!" I called as the brothers turned around and sped off into the castle. I turned to Brady. "Did you hide them well?" He nodded. "They have to be really good trackers to find them." I smiled. "Thanks Brady."
"It wasn't a problem, Kayla." I blushed slightly at his nickname for me before we walked into the throne room to wait for his brothers. Brady sat down on the arm of the throne while I continued to stand. "You know you can sit down Mikayla." I glanced at Brady. "I'm fine." Brady shook his head.
"If you're going to be training Boomer and Boz all day, it would probably be better if you sat down. IT's going to be a lot of work." I sighed and was about to walk over to the couch when Brady wrapped his arms around from behind and sat back down on throne while pulling me onto his lap. "Much better." Brady smiled at me. I pushed his shoulder in amusement before struggling against his grip so I could stand up.
Brady glanced around the room to make sure no one else was in here before turning back to me. "I'll let you go, if you kiss me." He whispered into my ear, causing slight shivers to fly down my spine. He must have noticed because he smirked at me. I quickly glanced around to make sure no one had come in before grasping the front of Brady's shirt in my hand and connecting our lips. I felt Brady smile into the kiss. We stayed together for a few more moments before we broke apart, both of us gasping for air. Brady loosened his grip on me and I hopped up from his lap.
Brady sat on the throne while smirking at me. "I win." I rolled my eyes. "Please, if you weren't injured then you would be on the ground." Brady stood up and walked over to me so that we were face to face. He looked me in the eyes, his smirk still present. "Would I be Kayla, would I really be?" He questioned, leaning down slightly so that our foreheads were touching. I couldn't speak because of how close we were. "Y-Yes." I stammered out. Brady just shook his head, a small smile on his face before he backed up just in time for us to watch Boomer and Boz rush into the throne room. Boomer was holding a plate with cheesecake on it while Boz had a banana.
Brady held up his watch and looked at it. "Seven minutes, thirty-three seconds. Very nice guys." Boomer and Boz smiled. "So, can we eat these now?" Boz questioned. Brady nodded. "Dig in because after this is a lot more training." Boomer and Boz looked at Brady horrified.
"What! We have to do even more training! This morning was already hard!" Brady nodded before Lanny walked into the room. "Hey Brady, can you come over to Lanada for a while? I need your help with the guards, plus they've been asking where you disappeared to." Brady nodded. "Alright then. Let me get my jacket and we can go." Brady then turned to us. "I'll see you guys later." We all nodded and watched Brady and Lanny walk to Brady's room before the two left the castle for Lanada. I then turned back to the brothers next to me. "Ready to continue your training?" Boomer and Boz nodded before we walked back into the plaza and began the training once more.
Brady POV
I followed Lanny to the clearing where we trained the guards. As soon as we entered the clearing Tate came bouncing up to me. "Mr. Mitchel, you're ok!" He exclaimed. I smiled. I had missed his bubbly energy he had when we were training. "Yes Tate, I'm ok. Just a little banged up, that's all." Tate smiled.
I then turned to address the rest of the guards. "All right everyone, listen up! Today is going to be a practice day. Find a spar partner and practice what you have learned so far." The warriors nodded before each finding someone to spar with and beginning to practice. I turned to Lanny. "Is there anything else you need?" He shook his head. "Alright then, I should probably head back to Kinkow." Lanny nodded. "Alright then, I'll see you later." I smiled before beginning my walk back to Kinkow.
I walked through the jungle for a few minutes before I finally reached the edge of Kinkow, signaling that I had about ten more minutes until I reached the castle. I continued my walk, only stopping once to help some villagers with a heavy load they were carrying. They thanked me before I walked back into the plaza to find only Boomer, Boz, and Mikayla standing there. Mikayla looked extremely frustrated.
"No Boz, when I say to swing the stick I do not mean to go pick up a random stick from the jungle and swing it around!" Mikayla cried out in frustration. "What Mikayla is trying to say, is that you need to swing the bamboo stick you are holding at Boomer to attack him. Boomer, you need to try and block Boz's attacks so that he doesn't keeping hitting you." Everyone jumped at my voice for the second time today. "Oh. Well Ms. Guard Girl here wasn't very specific!" Boz complained. I mentally rolled my eyes. "Just try it you guys. If you can get this right then we can stop for today." Mikayla sighed. Boomer and Boz nodded before getting back into their fight stances. Mikayla and I backed up slightly to avoid being hit.
Boz waited a minute, trying to figure out the best plan of attack. He then launched himself at Boomer unexpectedly, catching Boomer slightly off guard. However, Boomer was able to retaliate in time to stop Boz from injuring him. Their bamboo sticks crashed together, a loud Crack! echoing through the clearing. Again and again they attacked one another, each time one of them gaining a slight upper hand against the other only to lose it moments later. Mikayla and I watched in amazement as they continued their battle against one another, each of the attacks perfectly timed. When the two eventually stopped, Mikayla and I burst out into applause.
Boomer and Boz looked at us confused for a moment before smiling. "That was awesome you guys! Are you sure Mikayla taught you that?" I questioned my brothers, earning a smack on the arm from Mikayla. I rubbed where she had hit me as I waited for my brothers' response. "Well, she did teach us most of it, plus I showed Boz what we learned in fight school during a break Mikayla gave us." Boomer responded with pride in his voice. I smiled at my brothers. "See, today wasn't that hard now was it?" I questioned as I threw my arms around their shoulders and we walked towards the throne room.
"Are you kidding? Today was torture!" They both exclaimed at the same time. Mikayla walked up on the other side of Boomer. "Today was me going easy on you. From now on, it's going to be a lot harder, especially once Brady joins in with your training." Boomer and Boz winced before we all said our good nights and walked off to our separate rooms, Mikayla and I walking towards our rooms, Boomer and Boz going to the kings room.
When we reached our rooms I stopped outside of Mikayla's door to say good night. I quickly glanced around to make sure no one was watching before bending down and connecting our lips for a small good night kiss. We pulled away after a moment but stayed together. "I love you Kayla." I whispered. Mikayla smiled. "I love you too Brady." We then kissed once more before splitting up. I walked to my room and quickly changed clothes before taking some painkillers and getting ready for bed. After I finished all of this I climbed into bed and relaxed my sore muscles before falling into a peaceful sleep.
Did you guys like it? Thanks for reading!
Lots of Hugs,
