Tre and Brandon stands in front of Brandon's house in the driveway putting bags in the trunk of his vehicle. Toby and Jalaan approachs bringing their luggage as well.
Toby- When did you get a van?
Brandon- IT'S A SUV! And it's a rental.
Jaiven- Well hope there's some space for our bags too.
Everyone looks back to see Jaiven and Zay smiling while walking up holding luggage of their own.
The group pulls off and head there way towards New York. Later on as they arrived Brandon states that he's gonna check them in the hotel first. After doing that and putting away the luggage, the group went on a walk to explore the area.
Toby- New York City, this is my first time actually being here.
Tre- I think this is all our first time being in New York.
Everybody nods their heads in agreement.
Brandon- The qualifying match is in three days. That's more than enough time to relax, and prepare for what's about to come.
Tre- Yessir.[punching his hand] I'm ready.
Toby- Indeed I can't wait to kick all your cans.
Jaiven- Isn't it a better idea to avoid fighting each other.
Toby while smiling- Well we can't control who we fight. If we don't end up against each other...cool. If we do...[the smile gets more menacing] good luck.
Random voice- AYE MAN WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU!
The group looks over to where the noise had came from.
Zay- Oh.
Toby- Looks like someone's beefing.
They see a stranger having an argument with another person who's barely paying attention to him.
Stranger- Watch where your going or I'm gonna kick your ass.
The other guy looks at him unfazed by his statement. Tar age twenty-two, short spiky cut black hair, middleweight class, wearing a high collar brown button up jacket(click-ons), dark brown rip off pants, and black crease-less shoes.
Tar-[growls]
The stranger gets shocked.
The group all thinking the same thing-(DID HE JUST GROWL AT HIM?!)
Tar then removes his jacket and pants leaving on only some what baggy shorts. Getting in his fighting stance growling menacingly showing his carnivorous teeth. Hands opened revealing short claw like fingernails.
Stranger- AYE MAN WHAT TYPE OF TIMING YOU ON?!
The strangers eyes opens in shocked as Tar had dashed right in front of him, gripping his face. He slams him to the ground standing over him.
Tar- ROOOOAAAAAARRRRR!!!!!
Stranger-(This guy's crazy.)
Random voice- Tar!
Tar turns around and the group looks over to see who called him as well. They see a man wearing a white tank top shirt smiling then turning around.
Random while waving his hand speaking casually- Grab your stuff we're leaving.
Tar grabs his things as the two leaves. The group continues their walk entertained by what had just happened. As they explored around the area tourist style, they eventually end back at the hotel as night came. Most of the group was asleep, except for Toby standing on the balcony of the room, staring at the scenery.
Tre- What are you still doing up?
Toby twitched in fear not knowing Tre was up as well.
Toby after calming down- I'm having trouble sleeping. My brain won't stop thinking about the forge. I mean, we're not even officially in the tournament yet. We still have have to pass the qualifiers. We don't know what we're gonna be up against out there. What if we lose?
Tre while laughing- Then we suck.
Toby quietly yelling- This is not the time for jokes!
Tre smacks Toby in the face. Toby was confused about the strike but instantly followed up with a slap of his own. Unfortunately Tre had blocked that swing as well as multiple swings that came after that one. He grabs Toby's arms restricting his movement.
Tre- Listen dude. Let's not go down the what if rabbit hole. We'll worry about the qualifying match when it's comes. Which is in like two days now, so until then let's enjoy the moment.
Tre then releases his grip as Toby calms down.
Toby- What are you still doing up?
Tre- Me? Oh I was snacking on some cornbread.
Toby- We have cornbread?
Tre- Not anymore.
Tre laughs as Toby stares infuriated. The next days starts as it is a beautiful morning, and the group is currently at a park.
Brandon-[WHISTLE BLOWS] PUSH, PUUUUSSH, PUSH!
Tre while struggling to continue doing pushups- Where did you even get a whistle from?
Toby then blows a whistle in Tre's face.
Toby- WHO TOLD YOU TO SPEAK?! THE ONLY THING I WANNA HEAR IS THE PAIN FROM YOUR PUSHING RECRUIT!
After hearing that Tre instantly stands up to his feet.
Tre- RECRUIT?! Nah fam you need to get down here and push as well.
Toby- And why would I do that if I also have a whistle.
Tre- That doesn't mean anyt...
Toby-[WHISTLE BLOWS].
Brandon- Looks like we got a bunch of knuckleheads over here.
The two turns around to see Brandon towering above them.
Brandon- You two wanna play...sprint.
Toby- Sprint? But I got a whistle t...
Brandon-[WHISTLE BLOWS]- FXXKING SPRINT!
The two dashed off and continued to run in circles around the rest of the group who were still struggling to continue doing pushups.
Jalaan- Just how long...is this gonna last?
