The next week at school Choda is at lunch sitting with Benji and Aston while eating his food.
"Second week's here Choda, you ready"
Benji says with his usual unsettling grin on his face.
Choda finishes chewing his food as he picks up a milk carton.
"Yea im ready".
"You do plan on joining a quad right?".
Aston suddenly blurts out to Benji.
"That came outta nowhere, but yea Imma join a quad eventually why".
Aston looks at Benji with a serious look on his face.
"Well Chodas gonna make a quad and we need two more".
Choda continues eating ignoring the conversation.
Benji looks at choda with a blank expression.
"Aston...what do you plan to do in a quad, you cant fight at all and you have no typa powers".
Aston slouches in his seat shocked by what he just said.
"Well I've been working out so im losing weight, and I can just learn how to fight".
Choda turns his head visibly entertaining the conversation.
"Its not that simple, martial arts is something you have to put alot of time into learning. See i can already fight decently enough to defend someone else and I haven't even trained in anything yet".
Choda says as he looks into Aston's eyes intensely.
"You won't be in my quad until you can fight against me and do decent, because if you cant fight me you cant fight any thug, human or not".
Benji puts his hand on Aston's shoulder.
"Alright".
Aston says dropping his head.
"But look we need someone to scout out potential members right".
Benji puts on a funny face attempting to make Aston lighten up.
Riinnng
The bell for the end of lunch rings so the boys go to their separate classes.
As Choda enters his class he sees the girl from the first day of school who told him Aston was looking for him.
He walks to his seat which she's right behind and sits down.
"Hey".
She says while tapping on his back with a pencil.
Choda turns around and looks her in the eyes before immediately looking away blushing and starting to sweat.
"Whats up?".
He says avoiding eye contact.
"Its been a while since I've seen you what happened, you get a schedule change?".
She asked while resting her chin on her wrists with a soft smile.
Choda still avoiding eye contact responds.
"Yea i got most of my classes switched up last Tuesday".
"Ohhh ok how's your schedule"
She replies.
"Its good".
"Thats good to hear Choda, hopefully i get to see you more".
Choda quickly turns around looking straight ahead sweating even more blushing like hes a newborn.
Sixth period just got way better.
Choda thinks to himself in his head.
Later after school choda is at a basketball court near his house with Aston and Benji.
The sun still peeking at the city.
"Good runs good runs".
Benji says tiredly before collapsing to the ground in exhaustion.
"I told you sit out for the last game, you cant just try to keep up with Choda his gas tanks too big".
Aston says dribbling a ball while on the sidelines.
Choda walks off the court calmly as he whines the sweat off his face with his shirt.
A couple minutes later the three of them are sitting down watching the next game.
Benji turns to Aston nudging him.
"Aye man if yall serious about wanting to make a quad or whatever I have some connections so I can get us two extra members".
Aston looks at the ground thinking rubbing his chin as he thinks.
"Yea get two more and make sure they know how to fight though we can't just have anyone".
"You do know you're not gonna be in the quad right; You can just help in a different way or something".
Choda says while dribbling a ball between his legs while watching the game.
Aston looks at choda then back at the game.
"Yea i know, im just gonna be the guy behind the scenes or something you know".
"Alright so we got that figured out I have one guy i know can fight so we should go get him now".
Benji says as he hops to his feet.
Choda and Aston get up and start to follow him.
"He better not be too far either".
They say in unison.
As they arrive to a house in a ghetto-ish neighborhood Choda and Aston are visibly suspicious of the area while following benji who stops infront of a house.
"Here he is".
"So you gonna knock or what".
Aston asks benji afraid to get closer to the dark one story house.
Benji chuckles.
"Heyyy crystal boy im outside!".
"Yo what you doing, you tryna wake everyone up?".
Choda says urgently.
Benji turns around and looks at choda.
"Don't worry I do this all the time, he'll be out here any-".
BAMMM!!!
Suddenly a man in all black rams into Benji's side sending him flying landing with his pants down and but in the air revealing superhero tidy widys.
Choda gets ready to fight as Aston hides behind choda.
The man in all black with his hood covering his face looks towards the two; the streetlight illuminating him just enough to see his teeth bared clearly angry.
"S-sorry sir".
Aston says
Just after the man tales a few steps closer startling the two. His eyes now visible slightly glowing a beautiful but intimidating green color.
