Heroes of Inertia

Chapter 5: Tsun Tsun

Tsuyoi sat in his room marking the fastest course toward the next village. Pando got some well deserved rest. Nekro gave exposition. "I'm the oldest of my brothers." Nekro explained. "All three of us have different mothers, I guess you could say our dad's been around.. But that doesn't stop us from being close! Tsuyoi is book-smart, when we were kids he was always reading and asking dad question after question. Pando is kind of a dork. Any chance he gets to hangout or something he takes, coming here was a dream come true for him. An adventure through a new land. Especially after dad died we needed to leave home and start anew." Nekro rambled sitting on the bed. "What about You? All you talk about is your brothers. I wanna know more about you. Hell I don't even know your name yet." Nicole spoke curiously. "A lot of my "backstory" is something I don't like talking about." Nekro said laying down. "Oh come on! Just tell Me!" Nicole said impatiently. "Nope! Night!" Nekro said shutting off the light. "You're a butt." Nicole said sitting on the bed. "Oh shut up and lay down." Nekro said tugging on her tail. Nicole blushed and smacked him. "Don't do that!!" Nicole said probably waking up the entire inn. The next morning Nekro and Nicole left the room due to the checkout time of the inn. As they entered the lobby Tsuyoi was already there sitting waiting for them. Pando was getting breakfast. Tsuyoi immediately broke out laughing at the giant red hand print on the side of Nekro's face. "Was she too rough?" Tsuyoi said implying not child friendly things. Nekro was about to speak when Nicole's hand met his face once again. "Make him shut up!" Nicole commanded. "If you want him to shut up why hit me?!" Nekro said now on the lobby floor. "Because you're closer!" Nicole said as Tsuyoi laughed again. Pando walked back into the lobby with a pancake hanging out of his mouth. "Was she too rough?" Pando said sarcastically. "I already made that joke." Tsuyoi said smiling. "Nice!" Pando said as they high fived. "You guys need to be fired, out of a cannon, into an ocean, that is somehow on fire, filled with piranha, who somehow breath fire." Nekro said with a grain of salt. "Well thanks for letting me room with you. Not as thankful for what you did during the middle of the night." Nicole said with a slight scowl. "Hey! I thought there was a spider on your ass! I was saving your life!" Nekro said covering up the fact the he just wanted to smack her butt. "Well I'm headed to Muto Village. Where are you guys headed?" Nicole asked as her ears twitched. "Actually we're headed to the same village!" Tsuyoi spoke being the one with a map. "God damn it." Nicole said face palming. "I guess your stuck with us! Nekro said smacking Nicole's butt. Within an instant Nekro flew through the door of the inn hitting a tree. "Asshat!" Nicole yelled blushing. "You found yourself a Tsundere!" Tsuyoi said standing up. And within another instant he also flew through the door and landed on Nekro who was beginning to stand. Pando not wanting to be hurt walked passed Nicole afraid of her wrath. "Savvy." Pando said as he passed her.
