Zoey's P.O.V
We were now back at home. It was rather interesting to see everyone else.
Something went down.
Ratchet had a slight crack in his glasses, and Crosshairs had been holding an ice pack on the back of his head. Cade seemed to be keeping his distance between the two.
Drift had a small bruise under his eye, and Bolt had a cut on his lip and a bruise above his eye.
Gadget was paled and shaking, and Hound and Soul’ were trying to talk him out of it.
“Looks like we got the easy side of things.” Queen’ mused
“Seems to be the case.” ‘Bee agreed
I grinned and nodded at bit
“Here let's go set up your frogs homes.” ‘Bee hummed as Queen’ was pulled over by Soul’ to help Gadget.
I'll have to ask them later what happened.
“Alrighty.” I nodded
‘Bee and I both slipped past the rest and went up to my room.
I got a three new terrarium for my frogs, toads, and lizards.
I haven't decided names yet, but I do know that one of my lizards is going to be named Dino.
I don't fully know why, but that's his new name.
‘Bee helped me set up each of my pets new homes and put them in there.
They seemed really happy. Then again I don't think they liked staying in a sink.
But then again I can't fully tell if they are or not.
“‘Bee, do you think they like their new home?” I asked as I watched Dino tackle one of the other lizards.
“Yep, I'm sure of it.” ‘Bee nodded after a couple minutes
I grinned up at him
“That's good.” I hummed to him with a hug
He chuckled back as he smoothed back my hair
“Indeed.”

Next afternoon
Zoey's P.O.V
I stood across from Bolt, who now had a slight bandage on his nose, but that didn't stop him from doing his practice with me.
“Alright Zoe, we're gonna try somethin’ easy.” Bolt grinned
He was wearing the same gear when he was working with Blaze and Xena.
I had a dark blue pair of soccer shorts, my converse, and a penguin shirt on.
“Okay.” I nodded, following along
Bolt slid his feet slightly apart while being across from me.
“This is a swift one that'll knock ya opponent down.” Bolt said
“Neat.” I grinned
“Very much so.” He grinned back
I then tried to mimic his position. Bolt was patient though, and he helped me readjust
“Now, when ya do it, aim for ‘ight below the ankle, the harder the better.” Bolt said
“Sorta like this.” I then heard Drift said and a split second later, Bolt was flat out on his back and Drift was behind him.
“Smartaft.” Bolt groaned
“You hit the wall not me.” Drift smirked back
I grinned slightly as Drift then helped Bolt back up.
Drift had one something new this time. He has bright blue and black shorts, a darkish blue t-shirt, and his shades. Along with his normal type of running shoes.
“Your footing is off by the way.” Drift said calmly as he repositioned me
“It's been a while.” Bolt retorted
“Clearly.”
Just as Drift turned to walk away, Bolt jumped at him to tackle him.
Drift turned swiftly, making Bolt miss.
I couldn't help but wince as he crashed into the grass.
“To be a tactical fighter, you seemed to have lost your tact.” Drift mused and he crossed his arms, looking at Bolt
“‘hut up samurai boy.” Bolt snipped back
Drift only watched him back.
Bolt then looked between me and Drift.
“Zoey, how about a visual demonstration?” Bolt grinned suddenly
“Okay.” I nodded
“Whatcha say Drifty?”
“Don't call me that.” I heard Drift growl softly
Bolt only smirked back slightly before he tossed a wooden staff at him, having one himself
I took a couple steps back as the two seemed to get in fighting positions.
I watched in amazement as the two battled against each other.
I thought Bolt was just good with guns and a lasso but he seemed pretty strong against Drift.
They each slid around another, countering the other's move. Bolt jabbed Drift in the chest and Drift returned the favor with a jab in between the shoulder blades.
It went on for several minutes, neither giving up.
Then things took a turn when they each pressed the staffs against eachother.
I watched in surprise as Bolt then spun his, making it catch onto Drift’s, before spinning it again, pulling it out of Drift’s hands.
Bolt then caught in, and now held both staffs.
In a flash, he swept Drift, making him land on his back. Bolt had the tip of one of the staffs pressed on Drift’s chest.
“Yield?” Bolt questioned, panting slightly
Drift grinned back slightly
“Of course not.” He said before he slid his hands underneath him and pushed himself upright, kicking the staff up into the air.
Like lightning, Drift did a flip and caught it with ease before he got back into position.
Dang.
That was fast.
Drift is good.
I grinned a little as they went on.
Drift countered every one of Bolt's moves. Eventually, Drift made a sharp jab at Bolt's shoulder, making him stumble back.
Drift quickly took advantage, because he then swept Bolt down, Bolt's staff rolled out of his hands as he fell. Drift then pressed his staff onto Bolt's chest.
“Do you yield?” Drift asked as he hair fell forward slightly, covering parts of his shades.
Bolt layed there for a moment
“I...yield.” Bolt sighed, giving in
Drift grinned and offered him a hand, which Bolt took, and helped him up. They then both shook hands, seeming to come to a slight compromise.
“And that Zoey, is your first lesson of sword fighting.” they said in unison, looking at me
I clapped eagerly
“Epic!”
Hey! So I actually managed to stick to the schedule! Mostly! I haven't got much to say, but thanks. Oh and below is of Xena, Bolt's outfit, Drift’s outfit, and Zoey's outfit. All below to me, minus Xena who belongs to DarkerStars
Peace out!
