Chapter 2

.

"So that's it! Highlights are don't use karate outside! Call people with brown as sempai and black belt as sensei! Bow before you enter or went out! Respect each other by bowing and whatnots!" Lynx scratch his neck as his chuckled. 

Melanie just sighed. "Just remember the rules and you'll be fine. If you break a rule or two, it's either be punish or kick out." Melanie emphasizes the last two words with seriousness. My stomach drop a little. Hell no. I know I'll love it here. 

Lynx and Melanie eyes then look at our backs. "Sempai," they greeted. I turn my back and saw another man bowing at the door. 

"He's sempai Calvin." Lynx  introduce him to us. I just nodded my head at him and turn back at front. 

"Are they the first batch?" I heard Calvin asking. 

"Hm! Quite a batch we have!" Lynx jumps up and down like a boxer. 

"Have you guys done the warm ups?" Calvin entered the dressing room via mirror. 

"Not yet, sempai." Melanie answered. 

"Do it now so we'll do the yoga next." Sempai ordered. 

"Okay sempai~" Melanie and Lynx chirped. They have playful smirks on their faces. Uh-oh

"Kiritsu! Stand!" Melanie ordered us. I slowly stands up as the other hyper stood. 

"First warm up is loosening!" Lynx started turning his hips with speed. I think he had turn it 180 degrees already!

"Follow us!" Melanie did the same thing. I shrug and did the same thing. I had already the flexibility so okay. I executed the first one easily. 

They started counting up to 10. 

"Next! Neck stretch!" They placed their finger tips below their chin. 

I have a feeling the warm ups are just something else. 
.
.
.
"NEXT! YOGA~" Sempai Calvin chirped happily. He was wearing the usual karate kimono with brown belt and his name in Japanese letters on his left chest. 

I squinted my eyes suspiciously. They laughed. 

"Sempai! You're too obvious! Azy knows something already!" Lynx pointed at me. 

"Oops." Sempai chuckles. 

.
.
.
.
Okay. I get it now. There were 5 out of 18 yogas I couldn't do properly and the others couldn't do majority of them. And so Lynx, Melanie and Sempai found them funny just because we couldn't do them. 

List of things I couldn't do.

First V-stretch. 

I have to do a V on my legs then after that. I have to kiss my right knee for 20 seconds, same thing for left knee and the ground. Yes, I could reach my toes but kissing my knee! Ouch! 

And so Lynx went to me and bend down my body for me. Lovely. 

"Ow! Ow! Let me go!" He bends it down until my forehead had reach my knee. 

"Okay count! 1...2....3...."

"Hurry up! Speed your counting!" I exclaimed. 

And the three of them laughed. 

Second was the bridge. I swear I'll get this one properly by tomorrow cause it was easy but still...

"Okay! Next, lie down on the ground." Melanie instructed us. 

"Then make a fist and place them on your abdomen!" I could seriously see them smirking again. 

"Then turn to your right!" And we did. 

"And lift your legs!" 

What?

I tried but I couldn't. Melanie lifted up my legs for me and let it go. My legs were shivering in fatigue already but they still counted slowly. ARGH!

Third was the Butterfly. 

"Sit on the ground then stick your feet together in front of you." I followed her. 

"Next, pulled them to your jewels!" Melanie chuckles. I just followed her and did so. 

"Next! Both of your knees must touch the ground!" 

Okay what?

Then I felt a foot on my knee. I looked and saw Sempai smirking. He then steps on my other knee and brings both of my knees down. I have to admit that was painful. 

"Okay!" I roared. "Count already!" 

And so another laughing fit. 

Fourth was the Diamond.

"Pull your legs a little bit away from your jewels until you'll form a diamond!" We followed. 

"Now, knees to the ground!" And I was in high alert. Sempai was now standing on Bail so I let my guard down. 

But now I felt another feet on my knees. I looked up and whined. "Lyyynx~ Don't!" 

He chuckled in amusement. "No can do~" And bring my knee down. I bite down my agony. 

Last was the most painful thing of all but didn't force us yet. 

"SPLIT!" All of them chirp in happiness. 

"Split?" I asked in bewildered. 

"Yup~" Lynx did a split. My eyes widen in disbelief. 

"Preparation first, of course~" Melanie giggles. 

"Fold your left leg and then straighten our your right leg." Sempai instruct us.

"This is preparation for forward split." Sempai added. 

Forward?

But we all followed his instructions. We sat on our foot for support and Lynx quickly stands up. 

"Those who couldn't execute this, don't worry~ We'll help~" He chirped in happiness while looking at me. I groaned. 

"Now kiss your knees!" 

WHAT?! This is a ballet exercise! I see this on TV! I thought that was that!

"What?" All of us was in disbelief. 

Lynx then went into the same position as us. Then he kiss his knees. "Simple~" 

"Because you're you." I excused. 

"Do it now~ Kiss your knees~" Melanie was already standing behind Kyla, Sempai was behind Bail and I stared at Lynx who was already smirking in front of me. 

"No. Don't you dare..."

He quickly went behind me and bend me forward. "Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow!" 

"Breath in and out, Azy~ It'll help~" he teased. 

"Shut it!" 

He just laughed. 

"Shit! Start counting!" 

And the same thing happened to my left. 
.
.
.

"Sweet, wasn't it?" Melanie laughed. 

The newbies and I were already breathing hard and I saw Kyla was panting the hardest. 

"Now forward~ Put your right foot forward and then split!" Sempai claps his hands once and we all followed. 

I followed and slowly bring myself down. 

"Wow~ Azy, you're almost touching the ground!" Melanie commented. I looked at my knees and saw they were few inches away from the ground. 

"Lynx, assist me." I heard sempai ordered.

I then saw Sempai at my back and put his arms below my armpits. Lynx was at my ankle; ready to pull. 

"I'll be supporting your weight and I'll slowly bring you down, kay?" Sempai said as he smirk. 

"No. Not okay." I plainly replied while glaring at Lynx with challenging eyes. Lynx and sempai laughed. 

"Okay go~" Lynx started pulling my ankle as Sempai was bringing me down. 

I think an inch or two away from the ground, I started yelling to stop. They let me go and I was finally free. 

"Don't forget~ There's still left and center~" Melanie chirped. 

 Argh!

And I stayed laying down on the mat. 
.
.
.
.
After the horror, we were giving a break. If you call laying down to the ground while panting a break, then it is a break!

Of course you can guess by now who are laughing. 

But I've discovered something~ Lynx couldn't do the center split so I swear I'll get the center split before he does! 

"Sempai..." Kyla called out. I push myself into sitting position as I faced the mirror. 

"Hmm?" 

"How many years have you spent in Karate?" Kyla asked. 

"About....6 years?" He answered. 

Woah....

I faced him and he nodded. 

"How about Lynx?" She asked again. 

"About....7 months?" Lynx answered while smirking,

7 months? And he couldn't do the center split yet?

"Melanie?" Kyla asked again. 

"Same as Lynx." She sat beside us. 

"Okay my turn to ask~" Melanie chirped. 

"Who plans to continue Karate?" 

I raised my hand. 

"I'm not sure." Kyla answered. 

"I dunno." Bail slowly sat up. 

Celine shrug her shoulders while smiling goofy. 

"So only you?" Sempai asked. I nodded. 

"Why?" He asked again. Testing me, huh?

I smirk. Yeah. I love smirking.

"Cause it's such a waste. I'm now starting and yet I'll just quit? Just like that?" I answered in sarcasm. 

"Same reason as me then." Sempai raised his hand for a high five and gave him one. 

"Tomorrow, it'll be more intense so be prepared~" Melanie claps her hands in excitement. 

All of us groaned and I lie back at the ground. 

I saw Lynx looking at me with a spark in his eyes.

Oh no you don't. I'll be fine by myself tomorrow. You'll not see myself in pain and whine ever again. 

I glared at him as he chuckled. 

For the love of.....ARGH!

Now what will parents do now they saw how their daughter is now lazing around? Why, summer class of course! And what's best for this girl is KARATE!
---------------------------------------

Chapter 1: Sempai, notice me?

'From what I have gathered, the Dojo is at the College Section of my school. Students with high belts or statues will teach the students in summer class? I'm still not sure on that. Then, classes starts at 8 AM to 11 AM.' Azy spit out the toothpaste in her mouth. I grab her glass of water and drink some. Azy started gurgling the water and spit it out. Azy washed her toothbrush and place it on her sink. 

She wipes her mouth with her towel. She walks back into her room and started changing. She slipped on her panty and sports bra. She applied lotion and deodorant. She smiles at her full body mirror but then frowns. 

'Did I...gained weight?' She place her right hand on her stomach. She then turn her body to have a clear view on her stomach. 'Holy! I did!' She paled more as she saw her bicep. 

She quickly turns and observed her other bicep. 'Even my biceps are huge!' 

Okay. Her stomach did not gain that much and her biceps are not that big. She just exaggerates but she's a girl and girls exaggerates that much. 

"Azy! Hurry up or you'll be late!" Her mom called out. 

"Okay!" Azy quickly gets her jogging pants and twist it up the hems until it reach her knee then a gray T shirt. Azy grabs her scrunchy and bag with her ipad in it. 

She quickly puts on her socks and jogging shoes. After that, she slings her back bag with one strap on her right shoulder and wears her scrunchy like a bracelet. 

She runs downstairs with hurry and jumps three steps and pose at the end of the stairs. "DONE! Let's go!" 

Her mom just smiled at her and opens the door and straight to her awaiting car. Azy followed and locks the door and hop on the car. 
--------------------------------------
Azy POV 

"Excuse me. Is this the Karate Summer Class?" My mom went to the girl who was in front of the table. The table was beside the door that was wide open. I can see inside despite standing behind mom. 

The floor was being cover with blue gymnastic mat. On the upper right corner, there were punching bags being sprawled on the ground. On the left upper corner, there were those kicking poles with sticks coming out from the side. From the left lower corner, there were cabinets. And the right lower corner what seem like a dressing room. 

Left side  of us were a big mirror and on the in front were pictures of Japanese people and their names under it. (They were in banners form and was in Japanese language)

"U-Uh yes, Ma'am!" The girl shuttered. 

"Shit!" I heard a curse. 

I saw man walking out of the dressing room shirtless. Well, this is not the first time I saw a man shirtless but a stranger? And with abs? Dear deity. I looked away as quickly as possible as I heard my mom gasped. 

"Lynx!" The girl gasped. "Get your shirt back on!" She hissed angrily. 

"Sorry!" And the man went back in. 

"I'm sorry about him, Ma'am. He just finished training and didn't expect guests." I turn back in the room and saw the man-with shirt now-walk beside the girl. 

"Are they the aspirants?" The man asked. Deep voice, I noted. 

"I think the girl beside this woman is." The girl sarcastically answered. 

"Oh right. Sorry. Follow me please." The man-I think Linx was his name?-gestured me inside. He was barefooted. Should I remove my shoes too? Nah. 

I walk in the room with my shoes on with a tiny smirk of playfulness. 

"Baby, I'll be back when the lesson is done, okay?" I twist my neck to her and nodded. 

"Kay..." I answered. Mom smiles and walks away. 

The girl stepped inside and removed her slipper. She bowed before walking totally inside. She placed her slippers in the rack beside the door. I didn't notice that one. 

"Baby girl, please remove your shoes and place it on the shoe rack." She smiled at me and gestured the shoe rack. 

'Baby girl?' But I ignored it. I bend down and remove my shoes and socks. I placed it beside the girl's slippers. 

"Okay. Since the others aren't here yet, we'll introduce each other! Me first. I'm Melanie, green belt." She smiles at me. 

"This is Lynx, yellow belt." Melanie gestured to the Linx. 

"Yo," he greeted. 

"Sorry for earlier." he chuckles nervously. 

"It's okay. My name is Azy." I intertwined my hands behind my back and bend my right knee. 

"Hi, Azy. How old are you, by the way?" Melanie asked. 

"16," I answered. 

"Oh! Did you just turn sixteen?" Melanie asked again. 

"Yes. Last last month." And I answered again. 

"Well, I'm 19 and he's 17. Actually, age is a sensitive topic here but don't worry about it~" I nodded my head. Well, it seems to be fair. I'm in the college section so there will be more older people here. 

"Well, just sit down for now and we'll wait for the others." Melanie assured me to on of the chairs. 

"Lynx, entertain her." Melanie hissed on the guy. She then smiles at me and went back to her table seeing there were more people coming. 

"Uh...Okay. Hi...what's your name again?" He asked while squeezing his eyes shot. He look up and concentrated hard. 

I giggled. "Azy. It's not that hard. How do you spell your name?" 

"Oh right! Azi! Well, how do you spell you name?" he shoots back. 

"I asked first." I crossed my arm. 

"Right. Feisty. L-y-n-x. Now, yours." 

"A-z-y." 

"Okay! Hi, Azy!" He grins at me and I must say, that was cute. 

"Hello, Lynx." I smirked back at him. 
----------------------------------------
There were fours of us. Me, a guy I saw in the high school section, a girl that might be 3 years younger from me and a kid. 

We were seated in front of the big mirror with another man and woman in front of us. Beside them was a board with words written on it. 

RULES AND REGULATIONS

It said. 

"Okay. Aspirants! That is you guys." The man open his arms on us and chuckled. 

"I'm Ken. Brown belt. I mean Sempai Ken." He chuckles again. 

"Sem...pai...." I know that word. Of course I know. I read manga and watch anime! And for the love of anime! The joke, "Sempai, notice me!" is at the tip of my tongue! But I have to hold it in. 

"What's a sempai?" the kid asked. 

"Senior student." The woman answered. She look strict as she cross her arms and look down on us. 

"I'm Sempai Gabrielle. Gab for short. I'm also a brown belt." 

"In here, we only call people "sempai" with brown belts only. We call people with black belts as sensei." Ken explained. Or maybe I should call him as Sempai Ken?

"People under brown and black belts are kohai. You guys are kohai. As well as Lynx and Mel." Ken explained more. He was the easy going type, I noted. 

"Uhm. Well, I'm sorry to day this but we have to go. We're only here to see the aspirants. Lynx and Mel was suppose to do the intro but they pushed us into explaining this part into you guys." Ken chuckles and pointed accusingly at Lynx and Melanie. Lynx and Melanie just chuckled. 

"The rules and regulations will be explain by them. There will be another sempai coming here as your instructor." Gabrielle explained. Lynx and Melanie was then seen walking to the front as it was seen in the mirror. 

Lynx and Ken bowed to each other. Then Melanie and Gabrielle bowed to each other. Lynx and Mel then changed partners. Lynx bowed to Gabrielle and Melanie bowed to Ken. 

Well, now I know. I was signed up into something Japanese so bowing was natural. 

Ken and Gabrielle was at the door. They bowed before walking out with their shoes. 

Lynx clapped his hands to get our attention. "Okay! Introduction!" He exclaimed. I groaned and I heard some of us too. 

"Tell us your name, age and....what else?" Melanie looked at Lynx embarrass as Lynx laughed. 

"Name and age is enough!" Lynx clapped his hands again. 

"Let's start with you." Lynx pointed at me. I was at the center for anime sake! Start at the corner. I gave him a nasty look as I sighed. 

"Azy, 16." 

"Next!" Lynx pointed at the boy at the left side. 

"Bail, just turn 17." 

"Okay next!" Lynx pointed at the girl at the end of our line. 

"Kyla and I-I'm 12." The girl had glasses on and from her soft voice, she was the shy type. 

"Last!" Lynx open his arms at the kid. 

"C-Celine and I-I'm 6." 

"Okay! Wow! What a batch we have!" Lynx jumps up and down like a boxer. 

"So let's start with our rules and regulations!"

Prologue


Azy was once again sitting on her bed with her headpost supporting her back. Between the headpist and her back was one huge comfy pillow.

Her rightboeg was straighten out while the ither was bend forward. Between her left leg and abdomen was her ipad. Azy was typing furiously.

'Az! Wanna hang out? It's summer!'

'Sorry. Mom won't allow me :('

'Oh okay then. If you change your mind, we'll be at the Fruity Shake'

'Thanks,' Az quickly closes her tab and went back to her online reading.

"AZYYYYY!" Azy sighed.

"Yes Mom?!" She called back.

"Get down here!"

"Okay!" Azy reculently closes her tab and set it down to her bed. She stretched and moaned in bliss when she heard popping sound coming out from her body. She sighed in content.

She jumps out of her bed and slowly walks out of her room and zombiely walks down of the stairs.

Azy saw her room grinning in theor sofa. "Yes Mom?"

"Az! How does Karate summer class sounds?" Her mom straight forwardly asked.

Azy's nerves burst in excitement. Yes, she had been laxing around but her sporty spirit hadn't died down.

"Really? No Advance Math summer class? Or Public Speaking class? Or Test your Brain classes?!" Azy quickly walks to her mother.

Her mom just nodded her head. "Yup," she replied.

"When do I start?!" Azy brains are now starting to create illusions if herself in a karate kimono.

"Next week. I'll have you enrolled tomorrow!"

'Awesome! This will be a piece if cake!' Azy confidently scream inside her head.

Oh how wrong she is. But of course, she'll have more than karate moves. :3
