For The Better//Septiplier

Chapter 4

                Jacks pov

  I wake up to banging on my front door. I groggily get out of my perfectly comfy bed and curse whoever is at the door. As im passing by my kitchen i see its only 7 a.m. So once again i curse whoever is out there. Its probably just the landlord with more noise complaints.

When i reach the door, i open it and just outright say, "What te 'ell are ye bangin' on me door fer?!" I hear a quiet 'Oh' and it finally registers who it is at my door, and where I'm at right now. Everything from yesterday comes flooding back to my head and i have to hold it from the whiplash of it.

"Damn. So it wasn't just a dream. What do ye want Fe? Can't you see it's only 7?" He chuckles, "Ok, first of all, nice bedhead. Second, the timezones are messed up for you, so, sorry about that. Third, it's training time!"

Training? The fuck? "What do ya mean training? Training for what? The Olympics? Ya, no thanks." I start closing the door, but his foot stops it. "Wow, you're difficult in the morning. Look, I'll buy you food, ok?" I smirk at him as he sighs. "Now that sounds like something i could agree too. I'll be right back. You can come in and hang out if ya want." I let go of the door and walk towards my room to change into something i can move easy in. As im looking, i can hear felix mumble something about it being a mess in here. So i shout back at him "Ya well, I live alone! So I dont have to clean!" He grumbles again but i cant understand him, so i ignore it.

I finally find some basketball shorts and a Nike shirt with the sides cut out. I can't help but notice the shorts look like sans' from undertale. I chuckle at that and change my clothes. After, i walk out to find Felix on my couch sitting on his phone. He sees me and stands up, then whistles. "Damn jack. Trying to impress someone with them plus one biceps?" I roll my eyes and grab my phone off the charger from its place on my counter. "Lets get our arses moving so i can get, whatever this is, done with."

"That's the optimism i want to see! C'mon! Lets go!" He skips out my door, while i drag my feet. I haven't had coffe yet, do ya blame me? How is he even this cheery in the morning?

We arrive at what looks like a cafeteria, and a huge one at that. The menu is a little overwhelming too. So i stick with a black coffe and a bagel, but felix puts an apple in my hand too. He said something like, 'you'll need all the energy you can get.' Which worries me a bit, but whatever.

  As we're walking toward a table near the window, I see a familiar floof of red outside. It's too quick to see anything but the floof of hair, so I brush it off and sit down. We sit and talk for a few minutes, and Felix also explains that this 'training' is because I have to be in my best shape. I know that can't be all of it though, so, without thinking I blurt out, "Why am I even here Fe? I'm just a normal human! Well, maybe not 'normal' but I surely don't have anything super about me. There must've been a mistake..."

  "Jack, Jack, Jack. There is no such thing! You're chosen. I thought the same thing as you when I first got here too! Yet, look at me now! I'm at the top of the school ranks! So don't give up before it's even started! We'll just have to work a little harder to get your powers activated." I roll my eyes at his inspirational speech, but I can't help but feel a little better about all of this. I give him a smile and stand up to throw my trash away. He stands too, so I give him a pat on the shoulder, "Thanks for the speech, Oh mighty lord of YouTube. Let's get this training started then!" He laughs at that and throws his trash away then starts heading towards the door that lead to outside.

  He stops right in the middle of a park looking area, which confuses me. "Um Fe, we're not trainings right here are we?" He stays silent but looks at me with a mischievous smirk, and I glare back. He raises his right hand and snaps his fingers loudly, I'm about to question what the hell he's doing, but I feel a lunge in my chest and suddenly we're in the same training area as yesterday. The same one where I possibly saw Mark. Which actually reminds me, I wanted to ask Felix about that.

  "Hey, Fe? Yesterday, when we came here, was tha-" "Ok! We'll start with basic gym training like running a lap or two, and work up to more difficult stuff. Alrighty? Ok." I grumble that he interrupted me, but start jogging anyway. Then my brain finally processes that, We. Just. Teleported!

        Marks pov (Ooo~)

  I'm walking back from the cafeteria, after eating a quick breakfast, when I get the feeling of someone looking at me. So I speed up my walk, but the feeling goes away quickly, so it must've been my imagination.

My mind drifts back to yesterday evening while I was training. I can't believe it, Jack is here! That's too good! I should probably visit him or something so he knows he has friends here. Felix is probably teaching him everything right now, and heaven only knows you can only handle so much of him.

  I head back to my room to change into more movable clothes. I'm want to do more training before finals next month. Now, you're probably thinking paper and pen finals right? Wrong. At the S.P.S, finals are battles against the tuffest in the school, Including some teachers. We have to beat three people if we want to get to another level. Kinda like school, but with more violence. Something like a video game almost, at least, that's how I like to look at it.

  I grab a random shirt and some basketball shorts, then change and make my way outside. Once I'm a couple feet away from the building, I make my wings appear and launch off the ground into the sky. Off to the Arena I go.

  It only takes me barely a minute to get there and land right in front of the doors. I can't just fly right into the arena, because there's an invisible force field over it. So I do the weird hand motions and it starts slowly opening. I hear the sounds of fighting, and panting of someone who just finished running it sounds like. Thanks to my super hearing, I can actually hear those details. My wings are still out so whoever is in here can see who I am just from those. I'm practically famous by these things, Not complaining though.

  I can't help but notice a speck of green and certain swede standing by him talking to him about a break. Then it clicks, it's Jack! I can finally apologize for randomly flying off like that yesterday! He stands up straight and chugs some water down. I fly up and land right in front of him quietly, so when he looks down I'll be the first thing he sees.

  He takes the water bottle out of his mouth and breathes, then starts looking down, but as soon as he sees me in front of him, he falls straight on his ass. I burst out in laughter, having to hold my stomach from how hard I'm laughing. "M-Mark?! So it really WAS you yesterday?! Why the fook would ya scare me like that?! Aaagghhh!!"

  I finally catch my breath, and speak, "Well how else am I going to make a big entrance to greet an Irish potato?" He grumbles and I put my hand out to help him up. He grabs it and I yank him up just to show off my strength. Well, That, and he's super light.

  It's then I notice his shirt and I can't help but look a little longer than needed. I've never seen so much skin from him. It's a little weird, at least that's what I think I'm feeling from it. I play it off by acting goofy, "Are you trying to show off your plus one biceps? Hah! Mine put yours to shame!" I flex my arm to prove my point, and I could've sworn I saw a look of surprise in his eyes, or something like that. "Ya well,you can't handle this BOSSNESS!" He flexes both arms at this, And we both laugh.

  "Hey! Septiplier! Quit showing off your manliness and get over here! I'm too lazy to walk over there!" I look at jack and he looks at me, We both roll our eyes and make our way over to Felix.
