"Check me out! I can hover like a pro." Talia said as she floated in the air.

"Keep practicing like this and I won't have anything left to teach you." TJ chuckled.

"Alright, break time." Talia said as she came back to the ground. "I want my dad out of the loop."

"I understand." TJ said.

"If he found out that I have been hanging out with some boy after school, he'd lose his damn mind." Talia said. "There's not a lot of boys that can stand up to that kind of pressure. He is the world champion after all. No offense, you're strong, but my dad can still turn you into a pretzel."

"Hehe, random question, did you and your dad ever spar?" TJ asked.

"You're kidding, he'd turn me into paste." Talia said. "He hasn't put me in any drill from a while. I've been doing my own thing."

"That's what I thought. She surpassed him ages ago."  TJ thought. "So, hypothetically, what if someone actually did beat your dad? What would you say to that?"

"To be honest, I kind of wish he would lose." Talia said. "This fame has gone to his head. It's been annoying me since I was little."

"Good to know that she won't take it personally if I knock Takato Sai out of the tournament." TJ thought.

"Alright, break time over." Talia said as she stood up and began stretching. "Mind if I ask who taught you to be such a boss at martial arts?"

"My uncles and aunts, who you saw before did but my father and mother are the biggest reason why." TJ said.

"That makes sense." Talia said. "So, when do I get to meet your parents? Or your father more specifically."

"Well, you can see my mother." TJ said. "She just came back from shopping, but my dad isn't really with us."

"But he'll be back soon, the old lady is bringing him back from the dead to fight in the tournament with us!" Mya squealed.

"Wait, what? Back from the dead? Did I hear that right?" Talia said.

"Sis, we were supposed to keep that a secret." TJ said.

"Oh, I forgot." Mya said.

"Oh wait, I get it. Your parents must've divorced, and your dad's gotten remarried, and his new wife is bringing him to the tournament for the prize money." Talia said.

"Uhm..." TJ said.

"Well, let's get back to training." Talia said.

"Uh, sure..." TJ said.

A Few Days Later:

"Man, she's a real pro now."  TJ thought. "You've came a long way, Talia . I really don't have much left to teach you."

"You've been a great teacher." Talia said. "So, this means I can start prepping for the world martial arts tournament."

"Yeah, us too." TJ said.

"I'll fly home this time." Talia said. "See you guys at the tournament. Later."

Talia then flew away.

"So, does that mean she's not coming back tomorrow?" Mya asked.

"Yeah. So, what do you say we make up for our lost time?" TJ said.

"Yeah!" Mya said.

"Now, show me some hustle!" TJ said as he and Mya rekindled their sparring.
