Todd Manor, Atlas.
Geoff and Awena stood in the training room at Todd Manor.
"So." Geoff said. "Ye don't have any formal trainin' so Ima teach ya how ta box."
"How do you box Master Geoffrey?"
"Like I said. I'm going ta teach ya." Geoff said taking out a roll of tape and putting a six foot strip on the floor. "Now, which hand is yer dominant hand?'
"I'm left handed Master Geoffrey."
All right. Stand on th' strip wit' yer right toe touching the tape and yer left heel touching the tape."
"Like this?" She asked with her right toe behind her and her left heel in front of her.
"Not quite. reverse yer stance."
Awena put her right toe in front of her on the line in front of her and her left heel on the line behind her. "Like this?"
"Yes, yes. Like tha'."
"Now what!?"
"Ye need ta distribute yer weight evenly across both yer legs and bend yer knees a little."
Awena bent her legs and tried distributing her weight evenly but put too much weight on her back and fell backwards.
"Ye put too much weight on yer back. Distribute yer weight evenly."
"Okay." Awena said getting into her stance again. This time she overbalanced and fell forward.
"Not quite." Geoff said. "Try again."
Awena tried it again, and with slow improvements she found her balance. "I did it!" She yelled excitedly. "Now what!"
"Widen yer stance a bit so they are a little wider than shoulder width."
"Okay." Awena said spreading her feet apart a little bit. "Now what?"
"Elbows down, hands up. Like this." Geoff said squaring up to show her what he meant, dropping into perfect boxing stance.
"Like this?" She asked.
"Perfect lass." Geoff said. "Now, put yer head behind yer gloves with yer chin angled down slightly, but make sure ye can look over th' gloves."
"Okay. What next?"
"Relax an' breath." He spoke.
Awena began relaxing and breathing calmly.
"Excellent. Now I'll show ya how ta box."
"Okay."
"This is a jab." He said jabbing at the air pushing himself forward slightly with his back foot. "Now ye try."
Awena jabbed but overbalanced, and Geoff jabbed her in the chest pushing her back.
"Ye overbalanced lass." He spoke. "Like this." He jabbed the air again just barely pushing himself forward with his back foot. "Ye don't need ta throw yerself forward, just push yerself forward on yer back foot."
"Okay." Awena said jabbing at the air again. She did better.
"Tha' was better lass, but like this." He said squaring up before making a quick jab. "Like this. Watch my body."
"Yes Master!" Awena said excitedly.
Geoff shadowboxed in slow motion for ten minutes showing her how to box. When he was done, he told her to do what he did, and critiqued her form. "Yer doin' fine lass. Just remember ta distribute yer weight evenly."
"Right Master Geoffrey!" Awena said distributing her weight evenly.
"Are ye ready ta put what ye've learned ta th' test?"
"Yes Master!" She yelled squaring up.
Geoff walked up to her and squared up. "Yer move lass."
Awena was breathing heavily.
"Yer doin' great lass." Geoff said barely breaking a sweat.
"Th-then h-how co-come I'm dy-dying, and you-you're not?" She asked.
"Because I've got th' better part o' ten years on ya lass. I've been doing this since I was about ten'r so."
"Ca-can I ca-call a time-timeout?"
"Let's call it a day lass. We can pick it up again tomorrow?"
"Than-thank you." She said before falling to her knees and falling backwards.
"Wow." A voice said startling him. "I didn't know that you could exhaust someone like that." Coco said walking into the training room followed by Tyra.
"What did you do to her?" Tyra asked.
"Eep." Geoff yelped. "I didn't do anythin'! I mean. I taught her ta box, an' tha' was it!"
"So, what you're saying..." Tyra said.
"... is that you boxed her into submission." Coco finished.
"WHA'! No! I didn' do tha'! I jus' taught her how ta box an' tha' was it!"
"What happened?" Velvet asked walking in.
"Your boyfriend was a little too rough with his assistant." Tyra said.
Velvet looked down to see Awena passed out on the floor. "Geoff! What happened?"
"I taught her how ta box!" Geoff yelled in frustrated anxiety. "Tha's it! I jus' taught her ta box!"
"Okay. I believe you."
"Thank ye lass."
"Well." Coco said. "How about Geoff and I go at it? See if he can beat me?"
"Right now?" Geoff asked.
"What's wrong?"
"Well. Yer at max Aura and stamina while my Aura and stamina is depleted."
"Well. Do you think that the Ace Ops will care if you don't have Aura or Stamina?" Tyra asked. "Because they won't! Do you think that Harriet is going to wait for you to rest? No. She will go for Velvet and Awena while you're resting."
Geoff called 'Junkers Toolkit' to him and swung it around before bringing it to bear on Coco. "Yer move." He challenged.
Coco pulled off her bag and swung it in a circle before slamming it to the floor and charged Geoff.
Geoff dodged and hit Coco with the butt of his halberd causing her to stumble and spin around before swinging 'Gianduja' at Geoff and catching 'Junkers Toolkit' and using it to counter her fall and gain her balance.
"Is that the best you've got?" Coco asked condescendingly.
"Not even close." Geoff growled before throwing 'Junkers Toolkit' at her. He looked down at his wrist before typing something into his Scroll and looked up in time to see orbs fall from the Halberds head and hit the floor with a *tink, tink*.
Coco looked at the orbs and jumped away only for the orbs to explode and send her flying.
Geoff ran for his Halberd and grabbed it before swinging it at Coco knocking her away.
Coco flipped and caught herself. She looked at Geoff and smiled. "I'm impressed. When did you get upgrades?"
"I work at Atlas Academy lass. I have access ta all th' materials I could ever want ta use ta upgrade my gear."
"So, you could upgrade our gear?"
"Sure. If'n ye wanted me ta."
"Good to know." Coco said before running at Geoff. When she was close enough to block him in, she threw her arm out and let 'Gianduja' extend making her arm longer and expecting to clothesline him when he ran, but he surprised her and slid under her and tripped her with the 'Junkers Toolkit'. "All right!" She yelled getting to her feet. "What the hell was that!?"
"A little trick I picked up from Gale while fighting Scott."
"I should have known. You and your brothers seem to have the perfect strategy right when you need it."
"Well, what do ye expect when one o' us is a barbaric MMA fighter, a Charismatic Grimm Fighter, a Roguish Free Runner, and a smart mouthed mechanic? We see a world that ye can't see through eye's that ye can't see through."
"Whatever you say." She said as she picked up 'Gianduja'.
"Is this a private party?" A refined dignified voice asked.
"Uncle Rubé!" Coco yelled before she ran and hugged him.
"Hello Coco bean." He said returning the hug.
"What are you doing here?"
"Well. I met Viridian and he invited me over sometime for a training session and lecture."
"Oh. Okay."
"Which may I?" He asked.
"Yes. Of course."
Rubé put his right hand in his pocket and held his left hand to his chin to think as he walked around the training room. He looked at Awena. "May I see the remote?" He asked.
"What?" Geoff asked.
"The remote for her collar. May I see it?"
"Um..."
"I'm not going to hurt her. I just want to see it."
"I don't keep it on me." Geoff lied.
"Come now." Rubé chided. "I'm not going to hurt her."
"Awena has it." Geoff tried.
"You can't lie to my uncle." Coco said. "His Semblance allows him to know anything about anyone just by reading their Aura."
"But my Aura isn't active."
"Come now." Rubé said. "Did they teach you nothing at Beacon?"
"What do you mean?"
"I suppose not. Okay. Allow me to enlighten you. There are two types of Aura. Active Aura, and Passive Aura. Active Aura is when you activate your Aura whereas Passive Aura is your Aura as defined by your Character. My Semblance allows me to see this passive Aura and read it."
"Then how did ye know tha' I was lyin'?"
"Your Aura told me. Your active Aura is Sky blue, and your passive Aura is a Cobalt Blue. When you lie your Passive Aura becomes darker, while when you tell the truth your Passive Aura becomes closer to its true color, if not more vibrant."
"I see."
"Now. May I see the remote?"
Geoff reached into his pocket, and with great reluctance handed the remote over to Rubé.
"Thank you." Rubé said before activating the shock necklace.
"AHH!" Awena yelped before she sat up and began rubbing her thighs together.
"WHAT TH' HELL ARE YA DOIN'!" Geoff yelled.
"...three." Rubé said before releasing the button on the remote.
Awena kept rubbing her thighs together. "M-master Geoffrey. I n-need to..."
"Aye lass. Go take care of yerself."
"Th-thank you Master Geoffrey." Awena said as she ran out of the training room.
"What th' hell was tha'!" Geoff hissed quietly.
"You should know her limits as well as yours, and while I abhor the thought of Faunus Slavery..."
Geoff flung the 'Junkers Toolkit' at Rubé who dodged quickly and jumped over the Halberd as it flew back to Geoff under his feet.
"I must say that you are quite skilled with your weapon of choice."
"I am not a slave owner!" Geoff hissed. "She calls me Master Geoffrey no matter how many times I tell her not ta!"
"I see. Well then, might I suggest you look at it from a different perspective?"
"What?"
"You still see her as the slave girl you saved from that Brothel. Why not open your eyes and see her for who she really is?"
"What're ye talkin' about?"
"I see. I want you to activate your Aura."
"All right." Geoff said activating his Aura.
"Good. Now. I want you to focus it on your eyes."
"What! How?"
"Concentrate on your eyes."
Geoff thought about his eyes, and he could feel his eyes buzz with intensity, and he could see sky blue through his eyelids. "Now what?"
"Open your eyes."
Geoff did so, and when he looked at Rubé, it was like looking through crystal clear glass or water. "Whoa." He spoke.
"Good. Now. Look at Awena when she comes in, and you'll see what I'm talking about."
They didn't have to wait long.
"Sorry Master Geoffrey." Awena said. "I... Why are your eye's like that?"
Geoff could see Awena. Not the Awena he'd rescued from the Brothel, but a new Awena. She stood at 5 foot 6 inches with blonde hair and rabbit ears. The Irises of her eyes were grey, and her skin was the color of cream.
"Master Geoffrey?" Awena asked. "What's wrong?"
"I'm sorry Lass." Geoff said. "I'm so sorry."
"For what?"
"Fer looking at ya as someone who was broken."
Awena gasped and held her hands to her mouth. "Why Master Geoffrey?"
"I thought tha', tha' place still had a grasp on ya. I thought tha' ye needed ta be treated more delicately. Whenever I looked at ya, I still saw the girl I rescued tha' night. I didn't see who ya'd become."
Awena knelt down next to Geoff. "Why Master?"
"I can answer that." Cliff said walking into the training room. "You see. Young Master Geoffrey was so horrified by what he had seen that night that it was forever burnt into his mind, and he had nowhere else to direct his horror, so he saw you as the girl he'd saved from that horrible place and directed his rage at the Ace Ops."
"Oh. Is that what happened Master Geoffrey?"
Geoff could only nod.
Awena hugged Geoff. "I'm so sorry Master Geoffrey. I didn't know you were under such a strain. Why didn't you say anything?"
"I didn't know myself."
"He wouldn't." Cliff said. "The mind is a powerful thing. It can play the cruelest tricks on us if we aren't careful."
"It's true." Rubé said. "I broke many enemy soldiers when I served in the Atlesian Military."
"Rubé?" Viridian asked walking into the training room. "Are ye here yet."
"Yes. Hello Viridian."
"About time ye got here."
"Are you ready old friend?"
"Do ye even have ta ask?"
"Great. Then let us begin." Rubé said pulling a gun from his suit and shot at the four corners of the training room before pulling his pocket watch from his vest and swung it behind him before he was pulled back.
Viridian changed 'Boom-N-Doom' from the Blacksmith Hammer to the Double Rifle, and fired at Rube, but he was gone before the rounds even left the chamber. "Still as fast as ever I see."
"Of course." Rubé said before he activated his mocha colored Aura, and the rings on his middle fingers, as well as the watch on his right wrist, the bracelet on his left wrist, and the necklace around his neck glowed, and created Hard Light Dust gloves, gauntlets, and a Hard Light Dust Helmet.
"Whoa." Everyone exclaimed at once... Everyone except Velvet who was practically drooling at the sight of other Hard Light Dust Technology.
Viridian pulled the trigger again and hit Rubé in the chest, but the rounds bounced off harmlessly. Rubé snapped his whip at Viridian, but Viridian activated his Semblance and sent the whip to the floor. Rubé pulled on the whip pulling it back to him before he snapped the whip at the place he'd shot behind Viridian, but he twirled the whip and it spun down before he pulled back, and it caught Viridian's leg.
Viridian activated his Semblance increasing the gravity around the chain and aiming at Rubé. The barrel glowed an ominous purple-black, and he pulled the trigger. Rubé pulled his arm up and a pure white two foot by three foot shield appeared from his wrist, and took the shot. Rubé charged Viridian and pressed the top of the pocket watch. Two rows of razor sharp thorns popped out of the chain whip cutting into Viridian's Aura causing him to look down and hiss at the sudden pain.
Rubé ran past Viridian and spun his whip to wrap around Viridian. Viridian knew what Rubé was going to do and changed 'Boom-N-Doom' back to the Blacksmith Hammer and swung at Rubé. He decreased the gravity on it but increased it as it hit Rubé.
Rubé went flying, but he kept his grip on his chain whip. The Whip pulled taut, tripping Viridian, and he threw the chain at the spot he'd shot magnetizing the tip of the whip and pulling him to the wall. He hit the wall and landed... hard.
"Time!" Geoff said. "Can ye two keep going?"
"I'm almost offended Geoffrey." Rubé said. "I've been hit harder than that and still walked fifty miles in full Atlas gear."
"I don't doubt tha'!" Geoff stammered.
"Are you all right Viridian?" Rubé asked.
"O' course I am." Viridian said. "I wrestle wit' an Ursa! O' course I'm all, right?"
"Bob?" Geoff asked in awe, shock, and horror.
"Yeah." Viridian confirmed. "Bob an' I wrestle all th' time."
Mathematic equations appeared in the air in front of Geoff's eyes as he tried to puzzle out how that was possible.
Chibi Geoff
Inside Geoff's head, the small Chibi Geoff looked at his computer screen. "This... this... this does not compute!" He yelled as he flipped the table. "Alright I'm out." He said before walking to the door and walked out."
Geoff
Geoff looked at Viridian in complete and utter confusion and said the only thing he could.
"How?" He asked in Velvet's voice.
He looked at Velvet and saw her asking Viridian.
"How do you and Bob wrestle?" She asked.
"Let me show ya." Viridian said leading them outside.
The group watched in amazement and Horror as Viridian pinned Bob.
"See." Viridian said. "Bob an' I wrestle all th' time."
"What?!" Coco stammered. "How?! Why?! I have so many questions!"
"I'd like ta see ya be a blacksmith lassie." Viridian said. "It makes ye strong. Yer uncle and Geoff know what I'm talkin' about."
"It's true." Geoff said. "Smithin' makes ye strong."
Velvet slid up to Geoff. "Will you show me?" She asked.
Geoff blushed and looked around.
"Come on Master Geoffrey!" Awena cheered. "Show us!"
Geoff looked at Viridian who grinned a wicked grin and flexed with a creak of his battle gear. Then he pulled up his shirt to reveal a rippling six pack.
"Yer turn lad." He spoke.
Geoff Blushed as he flexed, revealing muscles that strained against his shirt to the point of pulling on the stitching's.
Velvet touched his arm and shuddered in delight as she felt his arms.
Geoff reached down and pulled up his shirt to show his own six pack.
Velvet tentatively reached forward and lightly touched his stomach before pulling back. She reached forward again and touched his stomach again. "Wow." She gasped.
"Get a room!" Coco shouted causing Geoff to drop his shirt and Velvet to jump.
"Be nice." Tyra said.
"What?" Coco asked deflecting.
"You know what. Now be nice or you can sleep in your own room tonight."
"I'll be good." Coco yelped as everyone else burst into laughter.
"Now." Rubé said. "Should we get onto the next fight?"
"Yes." Coco said. "Who wants to fight me!"
"Me." Viridian said swinging 'Boom-N-Doom' into his open palm.
"Bring it old man." Coco said gripping 'Gianduja' and swinging it in an arc."
"Back up." Viridian said.
Everyone but Coco and Viridian took several steps back.
"Anytime Yer ready lass."
"Age before beauty." Coco countered.
"Either way Yer goin' first..." Viridian was cut off as Coco brought 'Gianduja' down where he'd been mere seconds earlier.
"Hey lass! Ya missed!"
"My bad." Coco said changing 'Gianduja' to the Gatling Gun and aimed at Viridian.
Viridian aimed his hand at 'Gianduja' causing the tip to glow red before it dropped sending bullets into the ground.
Coco pushed against the gravity and aimed it at Viridian who dove out of the way and released his Semblance causing Coco to overcorrect and swing it into the air, shooting bullets into the air. He spun around and changed 'Boom-N-Doom' to the double rifle and shot a Gravity Dust round at Coco. It hit her in the chest and sent her flying.
Viridian changed Boom-N-Doom to the Blacksmith Hammer and jumped in the air and increased the gravity around the head of the hammer and brought it down on Coco.
Coco caught the hammer with her hand shattering her Aura. "Hey old man." She spoke. "Looks like you've been left... holding the bag."
"Wha'?" Viridian asked.
Coco threw her bag at Viridian catching the strap on his neck, and nut shotting him.
"AH! SHITE!" He yelled. "OW! BLAST YE LASS!"
"You shattered my Aura!" Coco yelled.
"And your arm." Tyra and Velvet said in unison.
"What?"
"We heard a crack." Tyra said. "You'll want to go see a healer."
Coco looked at her arm. It felt odd. She shook it and gritted her teeth. "Fuck!" She yelled.
Geoff stared down his opponent.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" Yatsuhashi asked.
"Yeah. I need ta see just how much I've increased. I've already fought Coco. Tha' means I need ta fight ye, Fox, an' Velvet."
"All right. If, you're sure."
"I am."
"Begin." Coco said starting the match.
Yatsuhashi brought 'Fulcrum' down on Geoff but was surprised when he felt no resistance. He looked to see that Geoff had moved out of the way and swung his Halberd around and down on 'Fulcrum'. He parried, and sent Geoff stumbling back, but Geoff spun with the grace of a dancer and twirled before swinging the 'Junkers Toolkit' at him again, this time scratching his Aura. He batted 'Junkers Toolkit' to the side and jumped back before reaching over his shoulder and grabbing 'Guillotine'.
Geoff just smirked and shifted 'Junkers Toolkit' to the long-range assault rifle before pulling the trigger letting loose bursts of bullets that peppered Yatsu's Aura.
Yatsuhashi crossed his swords over his face to prevent as much damage as possible and waited until he heard the click signifying that Geoff was out of ammo. He looked at Geoff and saw him press a button on the edge of 'Junkers Toolkit' and heard beeping coming from his feet. He looked down to see the bullets flashing red. "Shit." He swore before jumping towards safety only to be caught in the explosion and sent to his knees.
Geoff took his opportunity to rush Yatsuhashi when he fell to his knees. He grabbed Yatsu around the neck with his Halberd and pulled up. "Yield." He spoke.
Yatsuhashi head butted Geoff with the back of his head which was a mistake. Geoff began glowing white and exploded shattering the rest of his Aura.
"Holy shit!" Coco yelled. "What the hell was that?"
"My Semblance." Geoff said. I've gotten a better handle on in now. I used to pass out after one use."
"What!" Velvet yelled.
"Yeah. A Semblance is like a muscle. Ya have ta work it out oth'rwise it becomes atrophied an' useless. I spend an hour every day blowing meself up so I can use my Semblance wit'out incident. I can currently use my Semblance three, maybe four times before I pass out now."
"You know that doesn't really inspire confidence." Velvet said. "WAIT! When do you practice! What time! I haven't seen you around when it happens."
"I used ta practice at Atlas Academy. I would kill th' cameras for 'n hour, and practice, but after a while th' Ace Ops and General Ironwood would try ta spy on me. I'm not sure why, they've seen me use my Semblance before, but they always do."
"Want us to do something about it?" Coco asked.
"Nah, thank ye lass."
"Okay. If you change your mind, let us know."
"Will do lass."
Awena looked at Fox. "Hello." She spoke.
"Hello." Fox said. "Are you ready to fight."
"Hold on." Awena said. "Master Geoffrey?" She asked meekly.
"What's up lass?"
"Would you use the shock collar please? Just for a few seconds?"
Geoff felt his stomach tighten. "I don't know lass."
"Please?" She asked with big puppy dog eyes that rivaled Ruby's.
"Oh... Shite. I suppose so." He spoke.
"Thank you, Master Geoffrey."
Geoff took out the remote to Awena's shock collar. His hand shook as he tried pressing the button, but he couldn't. He felt someone put their hand next to his, and he looked over to see Velvet. She held his hand, and together they pushed the button.
Awena screamed out for the three seconds that Geoff and Velvet pressed the button on her shock collar. When the shock stopped, she looked at Fox, her legs were shaking so much, and she wanted to release the tension from between her thighs, but instead, she glowed gold, and harnessed her tension into power.
Fox wasn't sure what to expect when he heard Awena scream, but it wasn't for his scroll to warn him that something was coming at him fast. He dove out of the way and kicked out, only for his foot to catch on something and him get pulled off track. He spun in midair and landed in three-point landing. He activated 'Sharp Retribution' and listened, but he was caught off guard as Awena hit him, digging into his Aura. "Shit." He swore.
Awena took everything that Master Geoffrey had taught her about boxing and used it to fight Fox. She was surprised at how good she was doing when Fox jumped and brought his fist across her face. She wiped her face and spit blood before she jabbed him in the chest and sent him flying.
'What the hell?' Fox thought as Awena sent him flying. 'Is this her Semblance? It's amazing!' He flipped and landed before he rolled to his feet and scanned the area. "She's right behind me, isn't she?" He asked.
"You guessed it!" Awena yelled picking Fox up and slamming him out of bounds.
Everyone looked a Awena in shock.
"What the hell!" Coco yelled. "How were you able to beat Fox?"
"Um... I-I'm not sure." She said as she deactivated her Aura and fell to her hands and knees.
"Awena!" Geoff yelled.
"I did it Master Geoffrey." She smiled. "I conquered my Semblance. I control my Semblance, not the other way around."
"You did great." Geoff said. "Get some sleep. You've earned it."
"Thank you, Master Geoffrey." Awena said with a yawn before she curled into a ball.
Geoff picked Awena up and carried her up the stairs and to her room.
"What the hell was that?" Coco asked.
"I think Awena just gained some much-needed maturity and growth." Rubé said. "Now sit down, and I'll explain what I saw during those spars when Geoff gets back."
Rubé looked at the group. "You did good today." He spoke. "But there were obvious mistakes. Who wants to take a wild guess at what those mistakes were?"
The group stayed quiet.
"Do you not know?"
"Um... Not really."
"Then allow me to point out your errors. Coco. You are too careless when you get angry.
Geoff you are too caring about your friends; caring about them is not a bad thing, but when it becomes a detriment to you and your Team or your other friends, that's a problem. You are also too paranoid. While it's good to be paranoid, being too paranoid is a bad thing.
Awena. It's good that you have overcome your Semblance's backlashes, but that is something that should have been taken care of long before now. However, it's not entirely your fault. Geoff should have been helping you rather than hindering you, but it's not all Geoff's fault either. You could have taken the remote to the shock collar.
Viridian... You are too erratic as always.
Yatsuhashi, you are holding back, and not in the "Oh. I might hurt my friends." kind of holding back. I mean the "I'm scared of my own strength." Kind of holding back. Stop it. What's going to happen when your friends are in danger, are you going to hold back then? The answer is no, because you are going to begin fighting your friends like you mean it, because it not only hurts you, but it also hurts them. So, stop.
Fox. While you are a skilled Huntsman, you rely too much on your technology."
"How else do you expect me to see?"
"Your hearing is enhanced, no?"
"Yes, but..."
"But nothing. You can enhance your hearing the same way Geoffrey enhanced his sight. Do you have any idea how useful enhanced hearing would be for your team?"
"What are you saying?"
"Activate your Aura and focus it on your ears."
Fox did so... Begrudgingly, and he heard... no saw... He saw. For the first time in his life, he saw. Granted it was more like echolocation than true sight, but hey, when you hadn't been able to see for most of your life you took what you could get.
"Fox?" Velvet asked.
Fox looked at Velvet, and saw her, actually saw her, for the first time. "Velv?" He asked.
"Yeah. It's me."
"I can see you." He spoke.
"Really?"
"Yeah. It's not traditional sight, but I can see you. I can see all of you."
"You know what you need to do." Rubé said. "Just work on these things, and you will become unbeatable."
"Really?" Velvet asked.
"Yes. You saw how Viridian, and I fought. Once you have overcome your obstacles you will be able to fight like Viridian and I."
"Really?" Coco asked. "I'll be able to fight like you someday?"
"Yes."
"Then I'll train to become as strong as you."
"No." Rubé said. "You'll become stronger than me."
