Never far apart

11// Butt Kicking Is Fun

Raven POV

I woke to someone looking down on me. Without hesitation I kicked him in the chest and brought the dagger that was strapped to my belt underneath his chin. "Raven!" sputtered wide eye Cole.

I sheathed my dagger and helped Cole up. "Sorry I'm just really jumpy." I said with a sorry smile. "Yeah no kidding." he says studying my face. "Woah!" jay said from behind him. "You completely demolished our training course!"

I glanced at the course and smiled apologetically. "Sorry." I mumble. There was about a dozen arrows in each of the dummy's heads, some swords strewn on the floor and a shuriken lodged In the wall.

"From the way you took down Cole, I'd say you're well trained." Kai said picking up a sword that was oddly bent. "I agree. You're physical appearance has strengthen. But you do seen to be lacking sleep." Zane informed me after scanning me.

"Lacking sleep? How late did you stay up?" Cole said shifting into his overprotective big brother mode. "Uh.... all night..." I mumble plucking my bow string. "What?!" he says his eyes widening.

"That's impossible! No one can learn how to be a ninja in a night!" Jay says spreading his hands. I grin and blow some hair out of my eyes. "Oh really? Bring it on sparky."

Jay's expression went slack. He looked at the others pleadingly but they only backed towards the wall. "Um, I don't want to hurt you." he says trying to reason with me. "Fine i'll make a deal with you. Whoever wins gets named The Lord of buttkickery and gets a day off from training." I held out my hand. "Deal?"

Jay looked at my hand then back up at my eyes. He reached out and took my hand. "Deal." he said with his usual impish grin.

We took our stances. Nothing happened for a while, but then Jay made the first move. He threw a sloppy punch which I easily dodged. I grabbed his wrist and flipped him over my shoulder. Zane,Kai and Cole all winced as Jay hit the ground with a thud.

Jay glanced up at me then leaped to his feet. He took out his nunchucks and zapped lightening in between my feet. The next bolt of lightening he threw at me I flipped over. When I landed I sent out a wave of thunder that knocked jay overboard and into the water with a splash. I grinned.
"I win."

I glanced over the railing and saw Jay flailing about in the water. I bent over the railing and offered him my hand. "C'mon sparky. Take my hand." I say as jay takes my hand and I help him back onto deck.

"Wow. Good job." Cole said beaming. Jay wiped his hair out of his eyes. "I think it's only fair that I give you a congratulatory hug." he said wrapping his wet arms around me. I laugh and pry him from me. "Great. Thanks. If anyone needs me i'll be hibernating." I say going below deck and entering my room.

I change into my pikachu pants and a random shirt then collapse onto my bed. Training does suck.
