Courtyard

My POV~

It was a beautiful day. The sun was shining, and the birds were chirping. I sat in the courtyard, meditating. The Rebellion laid on the ground in front of me. Then I sensed the presence of Clementine and AJ approaching.

"Good morning Garath." Clem said.

"Good morning Clementine. What's up AJ?" I replied.

"I came to train." AJ said.

I remembered my promise to train AJ. I stood up and turned around. He had his new sword in his hands.

"Ah, yes. I did say we'd be training today." I replied, as I picked up the Rebellion.

I knelt down and showed him the buttons on the handle.

"Okay AJ, pay attention. I need to show you each of these powers. Clementine and I can infuse our swords with elements at will. You on the other hand have to do it with these buttons here. This one with the red flame infuses your sword with fire." I started, as I hit the button with a red flame.

The blade of AJ's sword was encrusted with green flames

"Cool." AJ said in astonishment.

I hit the button again and the flames died out.

"Next, this button with the blue snowflake infuses your sword with ice." I replied.

I pushed the button with the blue snowflake and the blade was coated with ice. The ice didn't melt.

"Sweet." AJ said.

I pressed the button again and the ice melted.

"The one with yellow lightning bolt infuses your weapon with lightning." I said, as I hit the button.

The blade was immediately encrusted with green lightning.

I pressed the button again and the lightning vanished.

"Awesome." AJ said.

"Now, this red button here, activates a special blade. And you must be extra careful because this blade can cut through anything." I said in a calm, yet serious tone.

I pressed the red button and the steel blade went inside the handle as the lightsaber blade was ignited.

"Your lightsaber blade has a black core just like mine and Clementine's. But we each have a different color. Clementine's is blue, mine is purple, and as you can see, yours is green." I said.

"Amazing." AJ said.

"I also modified the handle for your sword. So you can use it with either one or two hands." I replied, as I deactivated his lightsaber blade.

"Thanks. Shall we begin?" AJ said.

"Of course." I said, as I stood up and drew my own sword.

"Now, get into a stance." I said, as I got into a Ko Gasumi stance.

AJ got into the same stance and was ready.

"Attack slow." I said. "Attack"

AJ followed my instructions and I blocked each attack.

"One. Two. Three. Four. Good." I said, showing him that I was clearly impressed.

"Good job AJ." Clem replied.

"Now, we'll speed it up a little bit, so you can get better." I said calmly.

AJ increased the speed of his attacks and he managed to hit my blade as I counted to four.

"Good." I said.

Timeskip: afternoon

My POV~

AJ was a fast learner, and he mastered everything I could teach him.

"Very good AJ. I'm proud of you." I said.

"Thank you Garath. At least now I'll be able to handle myself if I need to." AJ replied.

"Yes. Maybe someday, you will unlock powers of your own. Then you can truly be as good as me and Clementine." I said.

"Garath is right AJ. Maybe you might have powers like us. You just haven't unlocked them yet." Clementine replied.

"I'll do my best. Then I'll be ready to protect my friends." AJ said, bowing.

"That's the spirit." I replied with a smile.

"Hey guys. What's going on?" Louis said.

We just looked at him.

"Garath trained AJ the arts of swordfighting and martial arts." Clementine said.

"Impressive." Louis replied.

I sheathed my sword and headed for my gym, but then Louis called out to me.

"Hey, where are you going?" He asked.

I didn't respond. I just kept walking.

"Hey, your mother would never walk away like a scared little bitch!" Louis said.

I stopped.

"Louis, what are you doing? Don't get him mad!" Clementine said, warning Louis of imminent danger.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Louis slap Clementine. I let out a low, angry growl, and it was not human. I was preparing to change into my dragon form.

"Shut up you whore! Garath's bitch of a mother would be ashamed of him because he's walking away like a coward. You don't deserve him!" Louis snapped.

"What did you say?" I asked tensely. My voice was already starting to become demonic.

"You heard me. I called Clementine a whore, and then I said your bitch of a mother would be ashamed of you because you're walking away like a scared little coward." Louis answered.

I drew my sword and turned around.

"Garath, no!" Clementine shouted, begging me to stop.

But I didn't hear her. My anger was too intense. Louis's eyes widened with fear when he saw that my eyes were glowing purple which meant that he pushed me too far.

"わたしわおまえおころす！" I screamed angrily, as I rushed forward to attack Louis.

I hit Louis in the face with a Flying Dragon Kick before laying the smackdown on his candy ass.

Fueled by intense rage, I hit Louis with a flurry of attacks without giving him a chance to fight back. While Louis struggled to stand because of blood loss from all of the slash wounds on his skin, I spun around on my left foot and sent him flying into a tree with a Spinning Back Kick and unfortunately for Louis, my right leg was encrusted with Soul Fire. As Louis laid there, he was holding his chest. It was smoking where my Soul Fire had burned him. I stormed over to him and prepared to demand an apology from the bastard who dared to insult my mother. I towered over Louis as I infused the Rebellion with a combination of Dark Thunder and Soul Fire while pointing the blade at his throat, threatening to kill him.

"Say it." I said angrily, warning him of a horrible death if he doesn't apologize.

"Okay! I'm sorry! Please! Have mercy!" Louis pleaded.

The flames and lightning vanished, as I calmed down. But I still grabbed Louis by the hair and pulled him up before getting into his face.

"I'm warning you Louis. This is the first, and last time I'm forgiving you. So you're lucky that I'm letting you live. Don't make me change my mind." I growled, before dropping him.

With that, I sheathed my sword and headed for my gym. I stopped when a voice rang out.

"Guys! What happened?" Marlon asked.

He was running outside with the others following him.

"Louis just got his butt handed to him, and not in a good way." AJ answered.

"Why?" Violet asked.

"Let's just say that Louis made a terrible mistake, and it nearly cost him his life. He slapped me and called me whore. After that, he insulted Garath's mother." Clementine explained.

"What?" Minnie asked.

"Yes. He said that Heather would be ashamed of him for walking away. In reality, Garath was actually trying to do the right thing by walking away, but by calling me a whore and referring to his mother as a bitch, Louis provoked him. And as soon as he did, Garath spoke in a different language." Clementine answered.

"Really? What did he say?" Marlon asked.

"He said わたしわおまえおころす。" Clem answered.

Marlon and the others widened their eyes.

"Clem, that was Japanese for: I will kill you." Violet replied.

Brody walked up to me.

"Garath, is that true?" She asked.

"Yes. I warned Marlon to never speak about my mother that way. And I heard him give the same advice to the rest of you, including Old Douchebag. But hearing him call Clementine a whore was more than I could take. I mean, seriously. As soon as he called my girlfriend a whore, something snapped inside of me and I couldn't control myself. Psychologically speaking, I wasn't there. I literally felt as if I was gone." I explained.

"Clementine said that before losing control, you tried to do the right thing by walking away." Mitch said.

"Yes. I did. I knew that he wanted to provoke me, so I decided to head for my gym to let out my anger on training dummies. But hearing someone call Clementine a whore is more than I can take. Out the corner of my eye, I saw him slap her and that really pissed me off. Don't worry, Louis is alive. For now. But if he ever hurts Clementine again, he's dead." I hissed.

Without another word, I stormed into my gym and went to my training room.

"Computer... Abandoned fortress, and spawn a Diablosaur... Level 9." I said.

The scenery changed to the ruins of a fortress, and an ugly mutation broke through a wall.

The dinosaur roared at me, but I drew my sword and tied the scabbard to my belt. I got into my Ko Gasumi stance and prepared for battle.

(Meanwhile)

Clem's POV~

I followed Garath into the gym, hoping to help him. But he already sealed himself in the training room. So all I could do is watch as he prepares to fight a hideous demon.

The creature charged forward, but Garath was too fast. He fought it with a simultaneous pattern of dodges and attacks. His elemental powers proved more than a match for the Diablosaur because apparently his anger makes them stronger. Eventually, he killed it. Garath was breathing heavily, and he let out a low, angry growl with each breath. He was right. Louis really did piss him off, and I've never seen him so angry before. The scenery and dead demon vanished.

(Return to my POV)

I destroyed the Diablosaur with no trouble. With that, I decided to head for my music hall. I wanted to sing since it is something that I really like to do.

I arrived and set up the lights. The microphone came up through the floor and the music started. The song I was gonna sing was "Strut" by Adam Lambert. Little did I know is that Clementine followed me.

Clem's POV~

Garath walked into the music hall and everything set itself up. The music started to play and Garath began singing a really cool song. I danced on the dancefloor as he sang on stage.

"I wanna start a revolution
A type of personal solution
We all have got our own pollution
It's all about the execution

You got something to say,
Your hands are tied
Open your mouth, open it wide
Let the freedom begin
Get on the floor, just let it drop
Don't it feel good, don't it feel hot
Feel the fire within

I wanna see you strut (strut, strut)
Come on walk for me
Strut (strut, strut)
How you wanna be

Everybody's looking for some love
But they don't know
How to let it all hang out
And that's why they're solo (solo, solo)
Don't want to be solo (solo, solo)
Don't want to be solo

We're a complicated nation
And now we're in a situation
Let's take a make-believe vacation
And get yourself some validation

You got something to say,
Your hands are tied
Open your mouth, open it wide
Let the freedom begin
Get on the floor, just let it drop
Don't it feel good, don't it feel hot
Feel the fire within

I wanna see you strut (strut, strut)
Come on walk for me
Strut (strut, strut)
How you wanna be

Everybody's looking for some love
But they don't know
How to let it all hang out
And that's why they're solo (solo, solo)
Don't want to be solo (solo, solo)
Don't want to be solo

I'll be your mirror
Darling let you hair down
Show me what you're working with and let me see you
Strut, strut
Strut, strut
How you wanna be

Everybody's looking for some love
But they don't know
How to let it all hang out
And that's why they're solo (solo, solo)
Don't want to be solo (solo, solo)
Don't want to be solo

Strut for me and show me what you're working with
Strut for me and show me what you're working with"

His voice was beautiful and his song was very inspiring. As the lights dimmed and the music died down, Garath headed for the levers at the end of the hallway.

My POV~

I loved singing Strut by Adam Lambert. It was one of my favorite songs on Earth. Now I decided to head for the underground cave. It was late after all, plus I had plenty of food down there. I included a kitchen when I created the underground cave. As I headed towards the levers, I felt a gentle hand on my shoulder. It was Clementine.

"I know. I'm a monster. Go ahead. Break up with me. Louis was right. You deserve better than me." I said timidly.

"No. That's not true. Louis was the one in wrong. He shouldn't have said that. Next time, I'll handle him." Clem replied.

I thought for a moment, and imagined Clementine kicking Louis's ass. I liked it.

"Very well. Next time, he's all yours." I said.

"I would never break up with you for something like this. I love you very much. And if Louis ever insults your mother again, we can always go into our underground lair and have ourselves a night of passion." Clementine replied, as she caressed my face with affection.

"Thank you Clem. No one calms my anger better than you. And that's another reason why I'm glad you came into my life. If it weren't for you, I would've lost control and killed everyone here." I said.

"True. But nothing will ever separate us." Clem replied, as she pulled me into a deep, passionate kiss. "Now, let's go to our hidey hole and enjoy ourselves."

Without another word, we both went down to our underground cave and enjoyed ourselves a decent dinner in peace.

"Do you feel better, honey?" Clementine asked.

"Yes. I still can't believe Louis slapped you like that." I answered.

"Well, next time he's gonna be sorry if he touches me. I'll light his butt on fire for you." Clem replied.

I laughed.

"Oh, I'd love to see that. How about electrocuting his balls while you're at it?" I asked.

"Now that's a good idea. But for now, let us enjoy the evening alone." Clem answered, as we made out and began undressing each other.

Soon, we were both naked in bed. We climbed under the bed sheets and snuggled in each other's arms.

"I loved your singing by the way. You have a beautiful voice." Clementine said, sweetly

"Thanks Clementine. The song that I sang was called Strut, sung by Adam Lambert." I replied.

"That's a pretty cool song. I'd love to hear you sing again sometime." Clementine said.

"I'd be more than happy to sing for you baby." I replied.

We made out for a minute before pulling apart and smiled at each other.

"Goodnight honey. I love you." Clementine said.

"I love you too babe." I replied.

We fell asleep in a warm embrace as Clementine pulled me close to her, pressing her breasts against my broad chest. I didn't care. I love Clementine very much, and nothing's gonna separate us.
