The next morning, there was a loud banging on the dorm door.
"Ay, I've got your training today. Meet me in the courtyard dressed and ready." A high pitched voice yelled at Maddox through the metal door.
"What?" Maddox yelled back. "I can't hear you! Open the door or something!"
Silence. Moments later, the door creaked open, and a hand held the door. A hand with pink and black nail polish.
"I said, meet me in the courtyard. I'll see you there." The voice said softly.
Maddox was taken aback and he looked down. He was totally nude. Well, whoever it was wouldn't have wanted to see him like this anyway. He shrugged and got dressed in jeans and a black t-shirt. He walked out to the courtyard, but there wasn't anyone except for a little girl, probably in high school.
"Hey, little miss. Are you lost?" He asked the little girl who was wearing a torn up Hello Kitty shirt that hung off of her shoulder. Her hair was messy, but not unclean.
"Oh. Thanks for finally showing up. Let's go. Maddox, right? I'm Yang. Now, just try and keep up." She said, exasperatedly. Maddox gasped at the small girl.
She walked underneath him and pushed up on his chin, leaning close to his face. "Close your mouth. It's not attractive. Unless you're trying to pick up some hot fish ladies, girls don't like that look."
Yang leapt on a series of boxes and soon enough was standing on the rooftop.
"I told you to keep up. Newbie."
Maddox snapped back to reality and rushed to climb the precarious stack of boxes to the rooftop. He stumbled and slipped, hanging to the roof by a hand.
"Yang... help..." Maddox tried to say.
She sneered and stared down at the helpless Maddox. She shook her head and turned around.
"Ankle." She said.
"Wha-"
"Grab my ankle! Stupid idiot."
Maddox used his free hand to grasp Yang's small ankle. She walked forward, pulling him up.
Maddox stumbled up onto the roof, falling on top of Yang.
They stared into eachother's eyes for a split second where the world stopped. Yang closed her eyes and leaned closer.
"WAIT NOOO!!!" Yang yelled, pushing herself off of Maddox, slapping him in the face, giving him a nosebleed.
Maddox stood and brushed himself off, wiping the blood from his nose.
"Hey don't worry about it," he said smoothly to Yang. "It was worth a shot."
She turned back and gave a smirk, and opened her mouth. She closed it right away and nodded to herself and turned back around. "... just... keep up... Newbie."
She leapt up and down off the opposite side of the rooftop onto the next.
Maddox followed close behind Yang, her behavior subdued from when they first met. Now she would only give him a quick glance now and again to check up on him.
They'd been hopping roofs for at least a few hours now.
"Yang, where exactly are we going ?" Maddox asked.
"Oh, just to the old powerhouse. We have a secondary base over there, one that is just for the girls. I'm the only girl in the male chapter, and Dre is the only guy in the female chapter."
"Is there ever any... tension?" Maddox asked.
"Not usually. If there's new members, they usually have the hots for them for a little while, but soon, everyone just accepts it and moves on in life. In the female chapter, it is a little harder to get the girls to back off of a guy, than it is to get guys to back off a girl." Yang explained. "We're just doing a check up today. No business here, unless there's an emergency."
