The two opened the door to the fifth floor, now a huge battleground between the soccer and footballs aiming for the sign out sheet, and almost all the freshmen were caught in the crossfire.

Strider tapped Tori. "Let's end this quick. We can't afford to have anyone get injured or we'll be a man down."

"Fine. Leviathan! Let's Splash!"

Tori's hair rose and changed to a pure emerald, waving around.

"I thought you weren't going to use it!"

"Only for emergencies," boosting them with a kickstart as they headed straight into the action. "What, you expect me to use it in the middle of a match? That's cheating!"

Didn't you use it to cheat and get the answers for tests in the future?

"You were thinking about how I was using my Future Floods to know the answers ahead of time, weren't you."

Ah, busted!  "Kinda. Still plan to?"

"Well Leviathan hasn't shown me a lot about the future, but for now, I'll have to rely on my power. Though I only used it to help me and Mark."

"See, you do have a heart deep down for others," teasing her.

"Shut up or you can't date my sister anymore."

"We're not a thing!"

The two noticed Ron and Janill surrounded by Tennis and Clyde, the latter aiming for their teammate's legs. Strider grabbed Raven, apologizing to his friend before twisting their body parts around as a shuriken, and flung it at Clyde, striking him in the leg, while Tori chucked water balloons in their face. She made Strider jump on the locker, which propelled her in the air, drop kicking both seniors in the face and knocking them to the floor in one fell swoop.

Strider checked on the two. "You two okay?"

"We're good," Ron said while Strider picked up Raven. "Get the sign up sheet!" Meanwhile Janill took some of Tori's water balloons and pelted them at Topher and Clyde back and forth before they could get up.

The two of them proceeded to their next obstacle, where he could spot Durby and Zhichao being attacked by three familiar faces, which caused him to groan.

"Great, Akira's Trio de Dangers."

Tori was confused. "I thought villains had four lackeys? Someone brainy, some chick, a tough guy, and a strong guy above them."

"Depends on the series. Huh, now that I think about it, Xenosis has Chime, the person who attacked Kevin, and the other one that showed up."

"That's just three more people we have to take down, right?"

He hoped that was the case as Durby and Zhichao were getting pushed aside left and right. Strider and Tori went on the assault, splashing them from afar with balloons. As they noticed, they had no time to move as Tori lifted the locker into the air and rammed into them. Durby and Zhichao jumped out of the way and Strider opened his eyes to see the trio on the floor.

"Huh, that was easy."

"Easy for you. Mark and your old friend are fighting over the sign up sheet," Durby claimed.

The four then hurried past their classmates to find Mark with the sheet, struggling to keep it away from Akira.

"Give it to me! We have a game today!"

"So do we. You're just going to hog up both our times when we're going first!"

Akira kicked him in the chest, about to stagger him, but Mark rolled under his attempts to kick him again, only for Akira to fling a football and pin it and his shirt into a locker. The senior was about to finish the job when Tori flew in with a punch to blow Akira slightly back, freeing her man from harm and taking up the sign up sheet.
