episode 19

It is morning and the rest are suffering from "Tika's" cooking.

Shimarai:-[blue]for how long are we gonna eat this food.

Wreck:-don't worry about the food, it will be better soon enough.

Tika:-[blue]I'm sorry.

Stella:-actually, [smile]it's okay "Tika", I took a lot of time to master one thing, maybe you can master it too as quick as possible.

After breakfast it's time for the challenge and yet they still couldn't lay a finger on the bell.

Wreck:-really? This was the same as yesterday, now that's a "Stella" vu.

Yaguto:-you're too fast sensei, it's just not fair.

Wreck:-say anything negative as you like, this will get you nowhere, the only things you should focus on is how to defeat the enemy before the time ends.

"Stella" stood up even if she lost.

Stella:-I'm still standing.

Wreck:-now that's what I want to see, even after falling down you come back up and fight till you can't no more.

Shimarai:-if protecting someone means to fight till the end then I won't back down.

Yaguto:-I'm gonna take those bells one day, you have my words.

Wreck:-let's see about that…a mere recruited warriors versus an expert of all kind.

A few minutes later the three of them are injured and can't move.

Wreck:-my apologies you guys, guess I over did this challenge, didn't I? "Tika", will you come over here…this is the chance where I can show you how to heal someone.

"Tika" comes by and touch "Stella's" forehead like "Wreck" is doing to "Shimarai".

Wreck:-first things first is you've got to learn how to connect to the bo- I mean the wounds and their pain, once you have done that you must change the outcomes of the injuries, it's more like killing the pain and closing the wounds and scars, once you have done that you might be able to make the wounds fade quickly.

"Wreck" heals "Shimarai", "Tika" failed to heal "Stella" but she kept on trying, "Wreck" has already healed "Yaguto" and yet "Stella" is not.

Wreck:-guess the two of you would be here for a while you can keep on focusing till the end.

Shimarai:-isn't that too much for her.

Wreck:-…back to training you guys, we can't afford to make any distractions right now.

"Wreck", "Yaguto" and "Shimarai" went out for training.

Tika:-I'm sorry.

Stella:-do not be…this world forced us to be what we don't want to be, and we're not used to it either.

Tika:-no I should be…I was holding you back, I couldn't do things right instead I took time on it, when someone tells me to do what I couldn't it almost sounds challenging.

Stella:-…father told me this once, he said life was always a challenge, whether you want to run away from it or accept it.

Tika:-…your father is right, if I run now I wouldn't be able to help anyone.

Stella:-so do I, I want to help my brothers and go home safe and sound, whatever this adventure we might have we will stick together, cause brothers and sisters…should always look for each other.

"Shimarai" and "Yaguto" are standing on their fighting positions and tried to figure out a strategy against "Wreck".

Wreck:-…honestly, if you think strategizing with this amount of time is going to do anything you're terribly mistaken, while strategizing you should look for an angle before the enemy rushes in.

"Wreck" went to attack "Shimarai" while "Yaguto" is busy strategizing so they can't focus on what they were about to do.

Yaguto:-"Shimarai"!

Wreck:-c'mon, can't you act a little faster? I hoped you could be.

"Yaguto" shoots flame so "Wreck" would jump.

Shimarai:-(a little faster? Sure, why not)?

"Shimarai" hits "Yaguto's" flame to combine the attack and hit "Wreck" while he is in the air.

Shimarai:-[surprised]whoa , what was that?

Wreck:-impressive, you managed to combine your attacks…what are you gonna call this?

Yaguto:-I, I don't know, got any clue.

Wreck:-right now I would call it the "Flame Vortex" but it's your attack to pick one.

Shimarai:-sure, we could call it the "Flame Vortex"…so can we continue fighting?

Wreck:-if you want to continue you could stand up and face me now…or you could take a break and look for a greater strategy to go against me.

Yaguto:-(is that what and expert would say)?

Meanwhile in the "Ever Frost" near the lab "123" is micro scoping on the mountains by covering one eye then drills for the elements that are needed, after returning to the lab he began melting them and crafting.

Gaplock:-you look like you're using too much energy, and that causes your system to heat up quickly.

123:-illogical, my system cannot melt, rust or bend even with 1000˚C, and my electricity is unlimited.

Gaplock:-is that how your creator built you? Seems like you're the success!

123:-illogical, there is still one app that hasn't been installed yet in my system.

Gaplock:-is that so? This is why robots and humanoids can't blink, feel or laugh like a normal creature…cause you were built.

123:-that is what mocking is…and you were close on being racist against organs and machines.

Gaplock:-whoops, my bad, guess I almost gone too far.

123:-ha ha ha ha…thought it was hilarious but I could not laugh properly.

10 days later the four of them wake up for breakfast but it was almost good enough and in their training time is still the same results, although "Tika" has mastered healing and had her job to heal any injuries, and every night "Yaguto" "Shimarai" and "Stella" are meditating before sleep, the next day they tried a different method that is not to use their "Ki" for the day, "Wreck" got confused on what they were doing.

Wreck:-what's up? a "Ki" day off?

Shimarai:-we relied on it too much, thought to give it a rest.

Wreck:-hmph, you could be right…(and what if the muscle does connect with a "Ki", will it weakens if both is out of balance)? Alright, [come at me] let's see what you can do without your "Ki".

As the training begun they confused "Wreck" by pretending to use their "Ki" and they almost reached the bells but "Yaguto" was the only one who managed to touch them then failed with the others.

Yaguto:-damn, I almost had it.

Wreck:-a touch will not count in this challenge, you'll have to pull off from me for real…[laugh].

Yaguto:-What's so funny?

Wreck:-oh I'm sorry, you just reminded me of a story I read before back at my world.

Shimarai:-a story? Can you tell us what it is?

Wreck:- I can tell you…it was a super hero story, one man who had the power of fire going out there, fighting criminals and bad guys, every victory he makes he calls it justice, one day when his friend has overcome to vengeance because of children being tortured by an organization of human mutation for decades, the hero stopped him by his own life, his friend did not hesitate to hurt him that much, then he realized that what he was doing is wrong.

Stella:-wait, how come avenging his children is wrong?

Wreck:-a hero's quote…vengeance consumes the mind of the ones who lost someone and makes him be someone rather than himself.

Shimarai:-so what happens if he succeeds vengeance?

Wreck:-…he will be filled with more than just a nightmare…his bonds will be separated…and become alone and never be forgiven.

After hearing the story "Shimarai" and "Yaguto" had an idea.

Yaguto:-sensei, just how many stories do you know back at your days?

Wreck:-[smile]…[inhale]couldn't count.

Shimarai:-[confused]what do you mean?

Wreck:-…there are millions of them that I know, but I never counted how many.

Shimarai:-[excited]that's great…we can listen to every story and learn from it, you can help us understand everything by trying to teach us.

Wreck:-…[smile]sure, I can tell every story, but I will tell you one story each day and not all at once, is that a deal?

Yaguto:-[surprised]not fair, we could at least listen every one of them, listening to another one won't hurt, would it?

Wreck:-[serious]"Yaguto", are you telling me that it's pointless to be patient and get whatever the work done now?

Yaguto:-of course I want to finish every work quickly.

Wreck:-only an idiot would say that…patience is key in life and the end, do you think you're prepared for everything?

Yaguto:-…you're right.

Wreck:-guess waiting won't hurt, now listen close…every story I'm about to tell have a certain lesson, right now I told you about a hero who doesn't need to use his powers to stop a friend from leaving.

14 days later the three of them are pumped up ready for the challenge, they wake up and finally had a fresh and calm breakfast then went outside to where "Wreck" is.

Wreck:-…(a month have passed since "Klai" "Kira" and their parents took off and head to "Ever Frost"…a month, I have trained those three because of what they want to protect, they are the children of the Intelligent who sacrificed for their sake…if you're watching this "Kudorai" know that your children…are your future), are you ready now? If you took those bells that means you can go out there without my help.

Shimarai:-we know that.

Yaguto:-and we're prepared for those bells.

Wreck:-[short laugh]then let's begin, shall we?

"Wreck" releases his lightning "Ki", at the mean time "Gaplock" had a feeling that it is time for action since 7 seekers are ready but the last one needs a little time.

Gaplock:-guess it is time for action.

123:-you are making a big show, I can see that.

Gaplock:-now we are starting by hunting for the main target.

123:-you mean the Intel for "Elleghfrethin", humans shouldn't have this kind of knowledge when it comes to the hand of a criminal.

Gaplock:-I know one person who's innocent and has no clue he shouldn't have the knowledge…looks like the target is not very easy to capture, you should be sneaky enough to reach him.

123:-you spoke of a person without giving his name, I can identify any human just by knowing their names.

Gaplock:-[laugh]…it's "Klai".

123:-…you're laugh made no sense.
