Hiro's P.O.V
"Any sign of her?" I asked Tadahsi after a half an hour of searching. We took a break and sat down by the harbor.
"No not yet." He brought out his scanner. "I think it might be busted, but it was working just a minute ago." He slammed it against his hand a few times. "Ah there we go that fixed."
"You serious all it took was a few smacks and it works again."
"Don't judge my methods. Now come on she is at SFIT." I climbed onto Tadashi's scooter and floored it to the school. "Alright she's in the labs." We pulled up to the front of the school. "Do you want me to come with you or...?"
"No, I think it's better if I go talk to her."
"Alright but if go in there and find you two kissing. I will throw up."
"Ha ha, your one to talk, I've seen the way you look at Honey Lemon." Before he could say something I walked into the school. It was quiet usually during the summer not many people come in because there off enjoying their summer vacation. I walked past empty labs with the lights turned off. When I finally saw one that was turned on and I knew it was Akria's lab. I peeked in to see what she was doing.
Her hair was a mess with her headband out. She had taken off her sweatshirt and was wearing a black t-shirt. She was pacing back and forth among her lab. Papers were scattered everywhere and she was mumbling to herself. I have seen this many times. Akria always does this when she is in the zone and she is working on something. I knocked on the door and said "Hey". She turned around quickly facing me. Her eyes had narrowed and her eyebrows had scrunched up. Yup she was definitely in the zone.
"She walked past me holding a file and said "Hey." Not even looking up at me." She took a seat at her desk with the files she was holding.
"Hey listen I know the master and the note frazzled you and you might be thinking to go face him your own. But you don't have too."
"Whoa wait a minute." She spun her chair around to face me. "Do you think honestly think I'm that stupid to face the master by myself?"
"Well um..." I felt my face turn red. Oh boy I'm in trouble.
"Hiro" She stood up from her seat. "I left because I wanted to make sure all of my files here weren't taken by the master. Cause this files." She put them in my hand. "Have all of our new designs for everyone's suits."
"And if we have theses."
"Then we are finally one step ahead." She said finishing my sentence.
"Akria that's...genius. I didn't bother to think to check here."
"And that's why I'm here. To make sure we still have the files we can rebuild our suits and upgrade everyone else's."
"And then we can storm the master's hideout on the island."
"And take him out once and for all." She said finishing up my thought. Her eyes shone with excitement. I took her hand and she grabbed my other hand.
"You are one amazing person."
"I know. Now come on..." She grabbed the rest of the files and her flash drive. "We need some upgrades." I smiled and we walked outside. Tadahsi was out there waiting for us sitting on his scooter.
"Akria, good you're not going to face the master right?"
"Does everyone think I'm that stupid?" She shouted in frustration. "I promise that I will not go face the master by myself."
He smiled at her and said "Good then. Now were to next?"
"Take us back to the apartment and get the gang together and ask them to bring their suits. We have some upgrades for them." She smiled and got onto the scooter sitting behind me. She wrapped her arms around me and gave me a kiss on the cheek. "Thanks for coming after me even though I wasn't going to be stupid and go after the master."
"I will always find you and follow you." I whispered back.
"I will too." She gave me another kiss on the check and then Tadahsi said.
"If you two lovebirds are done I would like to get going."
"Excuse me Tadahsi." Akria said. "I have seen the eyes you make at Honey Lemon." My brothers face turned red and with his voice cracking he said "I called everyone now let's head back home." Akria and I giggled and Tadashi drove us back to get us ready for the battle.
