"For aliens like Sledge and his gang they didn't know much about Earth customs, but what they did know was relaxing. Ever since High School ended in June, they were learning what was Summer Vacation was and somehow enjoyed it. They got to learn something about relaxing and not worrying about anything, more importantly Sledge was able to sleep. Not like any other day but a proper sleep which involved laying out in the sun without thinking about Mark's progression as a hero or the bounty's that were running around the planet. Right now it was just him and the sun that was shinning upon his exposed scaled body, which felt amazing."

Beach-Morning

It was a sunny as well bright day as Sledge was on the sandy outskirts of the beach not caring for anything in the world. With everyone doing their own business and no type of threat happening around him, he was laying on the sand resting peacefully and enjoying a long deserved nap.

"For a planet that hasn't discovered hyper speed engines or even making giants. There's some perks that I didn't expect."

Talking to himself as he had several materials around him such as a six pack of sodas along a tent blocking off the sun from his face. He was right now out of armor except for his mask since he didn't was his face being seen by anyone. Continuing to relax underneath the sun, he heard a set of footsteps coming over to him as it was blocking his sun.

"If your someone I caught back in space or someone that fought Invincible. I'm not in the mood, and has a very itchy trigger finger."

Telling whoever was right in front of him as he was ready to shoot the person as he aimed it directly at the being. Though as he opened his eyes during his rest, Sledge's gaze saw a familiar set of legs, gazing up he saw Poisandra wearing a heart shaped bikini along having her hair flow against the air while wearing a pair of yellow glasses.

"And you know if you ruin this new bikini, I'll break it."

Threatening him as she apparently joined him to visit the beach since this was the only time that she could have Sledge all to herself without needing to worry about anything. The bounty hunter nodded as well made space for his girlfriend so the two could look at the ocean together.

"I'd never dream of ruining your clothing my love, especially how that we have the entire place to ourselves."

Responding to Poisandra about that he kept a eye on the beach for a while seeing if any humans were visiting the place. However it seemed today was lucky for him since there was no humans in sight.

"Which I love you for Sledgums, cause maybe after this. We can do some things I like, possibly going to the mall. Visit a drive by movie, basic human things that couples do."

She listed of several things that they could do since Sledge was calm and not so grouchy he would listen to her and use to the moment to her advantage. However for Sledge, he smiled as he pulled her close making Poisandra laugh at how fast he brought her to him.

"I'd rather us stay here. And possibly do a activity that I've known you've been wanting to do since I started bounty hunting."

Thinking of something they could do as Poisandra felt his hand grabbing the side of her thigh which made the female alien yelp a bit. Realizing what he was doing she smiled seeing how after the time they spent on the planet, he decided to make the 'first move'.

"Really? It's about time you decided to do this. From how many costume women here I thought they take your eyes off me, but from the groping. I can see your still affectionate for me~"

Poisandra stating as she decided to put her hands on his chest and pin him to the blanket. Smiling at how he was now finally acting like a boyfriend, she was going make sure he understood what he was ignoring over the past years of them being together. Gliding her hand onto his chest and right towards his armored mask, she presses a button which allowed her to remove it complete. Seeing his scaled like face, she soon plants a kiss onto his lips expressing her love to him.

"She taste like candy. Shit, should have enjoyed these new forms right when we crashed on this planet."

Thinking to himself as Sledge begun to rub parts of her body making her quiver at his touch. Continuing to do this, the two didn't hear the breathing of someone there was someone else at the beach. The two teen aliens continued to kiss one another possibly about to consummate with each other.

"I guess your getting into the spirt of summer break."

Calling out at the two which made the two panic as Sledge placed a arm around Poisandra and aiming his blaster at whoever was watching them. Firing off a shot which destroyed some rocks by the water. Before he fired there was a bright light that disappeared in a instant, hearing the sand shuffling on the right side as they took a moment to see a recognizable face.

"Along having a weapon even in a public space like this."

Knowing the voice as it was Cecil, the human that had govern them a job to look after Mark Grayson as a teammate along to learn about his alien heritage. Groaning at the old man's presence, the two glared at him not amused with his teleporting act.

"What in the hell are you doing here Cecil? I thought someone like you would be looking over the atmosphere for. You know who."

Sledge questioning him about a certain Viltrumite that could come back to earth as well possibly turn the planet into a living battlefield. Cecil could see how annoyed he was along how seeing him would be the only way he could take anything seriously.

"GDA already have several counter measures to handle Omni man if he plans on returning. However, there's a certain issue you and several of your teammates have forgot to do since you began to blend into human culture."

The director informing the two as he brought out a file showing both his and Poisandra's human names. They came from the high school that they were attending, handing it to them Sledge and Poisandra looked at them not understanding what they meant.

"Passing your classes. Your aliens that have traveled to planets how the hell could you have managed to survive this long without understanding education?"

Questioning the two since for most of the time they had spent at Mark's school it's shown that they haven't been passing them. They managed to get pass the other grade due to them being 'out of the country'. However that didn't help them in passing their classes as well making sure they didn't get held back.

"Well back on my planet I didn't exactly need a education, just needed to show both my beauty and charms to everyone. Learned everything from Sledge when we first met."

Poisandra stating to the agent about where her 'education' came from. Cecil looking over to Sledge merely raised a eyebrow on what he taught her during their time in space, which now was worth jack since they needed to blend in amongst the humans.

"Like it or not while we've been able to handle your basic backgrounds, but the only one who's been actually blending is Wrench. And he's a damn robot."

Cecil stating that out of the group of aliens the robot knew more then them, to which Sledge merely ignored the human as he decided to put his armored mask back on since he killed the mood. Seeing how he was getting nowhere with the two aliens, he decided to put it in a answer which would help them understand their situation.

"Right now you two along Fury will be held back and people will suspect why you all are being in school while Mark and Wrench go to college. Which will me to remove you completely and have you placed somewhere that people won't see you. Meaning this day at the beach? No more."

Expressing that people will ask questions about their appearance in the school along how with them being noticed. They'd be hidden away from the public and wouldn't explore much, since Cecil did have a good grip over them as well their actions whenever their aiding Mark or the Guardians. Poisandra merely gripped her fist in a frustrated like response as he was basically saying it was either learn or get locked up. While that seemed to kill the mood of the moment, Sledge knew how they could get out of this situation.

"Then we need a teacher to help us get a quick study session. And I know just where we can find that geek."

Smiling at if Cecil wanted him and the others wanted to get their grades up as well stay in school and not get sent back to prison. Sledge new the right monster who would be easy to help them get a proper education, and would possibly be in the city since how much there was to learn here.

Later

At the new base for Sledge and his gang, there wasn't that much going on except for Mark who was invited over by Fury to do some hanging out. Though it resulted in a sparring fight as both he and Fury were in the training room fighting. The Viltrumite teen was avoiding the sword attacks the red alien lion was using, to which he was trying to electrocute him.

"I thought you wanted to play some games or go out, not try and take my damn head off!"

Mark shouting as he was taken by surprise when he came in. Grabbed by Fury's claws and thrown right into the training room and began to dodge numerous attacks from the red lion, Fury wasn't letting up seeing how he considered this 'hanging out'.

"This is how my people relax. And how you should be more serious with your fighting."

Fury responding at while he was considerable stronger than possibly anyone on the planet. That wasn't a excuse to act normal and try to fit in with humans, he needed to be focus as well stay on his toes. Swinging his sword left to right, Mark was moving to the side watching his movement.

"I get it. But right now we haven't dealt with any problems from your bosses friends or even that of villains. So I just want to.."

Before Mark could finish his sentence of trying to pretend in having a normal life, Sledge did a strong right kick into his chest sending him right towards the wall. He felt his strength within the foot, dusting himself off. Mark looked over to the side where he was being watched by Wrench and Curio who were sitting by the sidelines watching the two train.

"He said if we help you he'd tear us apart. If you survive I'll give you candy!"

Curio expressing a joyful like tone while showing some candy for Mark if he'd survive the training, the black haired teen rolled his eyes at the response as he decided to try and use his head in the matter.

"If this training, then why the hell are you using a sword? We're not in Japan. If you want to fight me then at least use your claws."

Taunting the lion about how this should be a honorable fight then one having a weapon. Fury looked at his sword and seeing how Mark was correct, hurling his sword straight at Mark. He rushed him as well tried to punch his face, however Mark took the moment and threw him against the side and hitting the ground. Getting onto his knees, Fury snarled at the boy seeing how he was getting serious.

"Finally, bout the time you get mad."

Responding to the quick movement as got on all four growling like a actual lion while for Mark, gripped his fists tight seeing that Fury might not be holding anything back. Before the two could engage in a proper fight, a loud blast sound came from a weapon which came from Sledge. Both he and Poisandra return seeing his friends fighting one another.

"For fuck sakes, we come back and we see you two brawling? Should have called me."

Stating as he wanted to try and fighting both Mark and Fury at the same time. Walking over to Wrench as he required some of his intelligence on a personal matter, Poisandra looked upset as Mark could tell that expression anywhere since they might have had a visit from Cecil.

"I can't believe he came in to ruin our Summer moment! How do you stand that guy anyway? He's so, he's so. Annoying."

Trying to not lose her cool along making sure to not ruin her makeup. Both the boys watch at how she seemed agitated which was Fury's thing, however there was a important part in Poisandra's words that were off.

"Poisandra? Sorry to be the buzz kill but, Summer's over. Right now people are getting their school supplies as well making sure they get a proper look."

Mark stating which made the pink based alien girl confused as she thought he was joking, however Fury knew it as well but pretty much didn't care. Looking over to her sidekick Curio, he pulled out a calendar which showed showed the exact moment of when summer ends. This made the heat shape girl frown as well collapse on her knees upset at the moment of realization. Mark looked confused about the moment as he noticed Sledge and Wrench coming out.

"What exactly is going on and why is your girlfriend upset?"

Asking him since whatever was happening had to be messed up if it made his girlfriend wince. Sledge looking to Wrench the robot activated a hologram from his arm which showed a alien which had to come from the bounties that Sledge went after. It was a male creature with a chalkboard for a face along having a school theme appearance.

"Professor Strickler. A Educaton from the planet Learnoium, after his planet was blown up he traveled across the galaxy as a teacher for aliens. However he taught them how to fight and cause a wide amount of destruction. Sledge caught him easily after he was giving a study group a lesson on how to detonate explosives."

Wrench giving a explanation about who the alien was as well seemingly here in the city. Walking over to Curio and opening his bag, he tried to grab something and pulled out Mark's suit. Walking over he handed Mark his suit which had him confused on why Curio had his suit in the first place.

"Don't ask. Curio likes to take things, now lets go. I need a teacher if I'm going pass high school."

Sledge giving him a brief explanation about what was going on as he left Mark confused about what he wanted to do. Seeing how he wasn't get his answer, Mark followed the bounty hunter to see what the issue was and if the professor might be causing trouble in the city.

Downtown-Afternoon

Across the city and in the neighborhood was a street gang that was apparently had a collection of weapons and planned on ransacking a bank. However there was a problem that was going on, which involved a 'teacher' who was right now taking out their equipment and seeing what they new about the plan they might have done.

"You call this a welled out plan? Toddlers could form a better heist for stealing cookies then what you all are doing!"

Strickler shouted as he saw how several of the men had machine guns and began to fire at him. However he was able to stop the incoming bullets with a pointer stick. Hitting the tip at the ground, he sent a electrical bolt of energy at them which destroyed their weapons.

"The time for change is now! As your professor I will model you into the criminals of tomorrow, otherwise. You will fail at life, and lose it!"

Sounding like a teacher and motivating them, however the humans panicked at the sight of this strange creature and decided to run. Breaking through the doors and avoiding getting caught, Strickler walked out to see where they were heading off to.

"Delinquents, it's no wonder there are no proper villains known to the public eye. Only these rift raffs."

Stating as he decided to destroy the weapons so that they didn't come back to use them. As he made his way he noticed a shadow flying over him, looking above he saw Invincible staring at him as well noticed how the professor was studying him.

"Young man! Only animals with wings and vehicles may use the sky, or use equipment to achieve a feat like this. And it's important to greet someone upon arrival!"

Announcing as he used his left arm which was a gattling gun and fired right at him, though Invincible protected himself. They didn't feel like bullets but lasers, as well that they seemed to be set on stun.

"Well, then let me give you a introduction. Names Invincible, and it's your lucky day. Since your going be with the good guys."

Stating to him with a smile as well dropping to the ground in front of him. Before the teacher could attack him, he felt someone staring from the back as he turned around looking surprised at who it was. His captor Sledge, with a new appearance and appearing similar to Invincible's age.

"Don't even question me on the new look. But know what I'm giving you a chance to make up for the crimes you did across several planets. By, being my teacher."

Explaining to the teacher about how he was going to offer him a chance to try and do something better than teach criminals how to do crimes. Strickler, confused by this new side of Sledge looked at the two and taking a moment to asses the situation.

"I can see that this place has changed your barbaric personality to a somewhat 'tolerable' being. Along could see that the other isn't afraid of me, there is much education I could share. The question is this, while be treated like some prisoner."

Asking Sledge and pointing at Sledge seeing if this was a plow to capture him. The red eyed hunter was ready to answer his question in a aggressive manner, though Mark decided to play along like if this was school and raised his hand. Hearing the arm reached out Strickler's attention went to Mark to see if he had a answer.

"No. Because I'm a alien to, or half. Who's learned about a tragic background on what my species are, but denied their ways so I could be better. And Sledge, who you might think is still a brute. Has changed somewhat, so if he could do that. There could be for you, and to not waste any tutorage that you could gift him."

Playing onto the professor's side of education and not treating him as a threat. Taking a moment to think upon his answer, Strickler looked over to Sledge still seeing the eyes of a bounty hunter. Though could see a slight change in personality since the last time he encountered him, Sledge attacked him with no hesitation. However he wasn't doing anything. Turning to Mark who was curious about his alien side, to which adjust his glasses and puts his pointer away.

"I find your answer, correct! There is always change for young minds, and both your and Sledge will be able to learn new things with me around. As well for myself id given this opportunity."

Responding to the request of joining Sledge as he would join the team in order to better understand this planet and possibly learn what Mark's alien species was. Meanwhile for Sledge merely groans of how out of all the aliens he and the others captured during their time in space, he'd be recruiting a teacher. Though if he and the others wanted to remain out they would need a good education, even if it came from someone who might still have a grudge against them.

"Well then, let me give you a lift to your new home."

Mark offering the professor a ride as he walked over to the side and lifted him up in the air. Sledge activating his jet back followed after as the two as it as going be hard to explain the others on the professor's arrival. Especially if he was going to be working with them during their stay here in the city.
