" Try it on! Try it on! Try it on! "

Cyclone and the twins had been asking Leaf to put on the green outfit since this morning. Leaf chuckled as he turned to them.

" Okay! Okay! I just need to take this to Quake and I'll go try it on, " he said.

" Yay! " the three boys cheered. Leaf smiled at them. He stopped at Quake's door and knocked. There was no answer.

" Hm... Is he out? I didn't see him in the living room or in the rink, " Leaf said to himself.

He knocked again. And again. No answer to either knocks. Leaf raised an eyebrow.

" Maybe he is out. I'll just leave this here then, " he said. He put the box down and turned away.

" Okay. Let's get the outfit and see what it looks like on me! " he said to the three excited boys.

" Yes! Let's go! " Cyclone said.

" Last one into Leaf's room is a Tengkotak member!! " Blaze said.

" Ah! Wait! Don't barge into my room when you get there!!! "

Quake, Solar and Thunder were walking home after buying a few drinks for the team. Along the way, they were, of course, talking about ice-skating.

They saw a few suspicious people, mostly men. Quake, being protective, held Thunder close to him. Solar noticed this as well, and closed his distance with Thunder too.

Thunder looked at them, confused. Quake looked protectively at him.

" Don't look at them. Keep your eyes away or on me. Act like they're not there, okay? " he said to Thunder.

" Um... " Thunder said.

" Trust us. We'll be fine, " Solar said. Thunder looked at him for a moment, but then nodded to him.

They walked through the people. But a few of them started to approach them. Solar and Quake tightened their grip on Thunder's arms, which made Thunder more alarmed.

" Hey~ " one of the men said. Thunder's mind immediately started to panic.

" You're a beaut, aren't ya? " another man said. Thunder, of course, said nothing and turned away from them. The men smirked and raised their hands to grab him.

" Please refrain from touching him, " Solar said. He got into the mens' way of attempting to touch him.

Before they could do anything more, Quake and Solar got him out of there. They didn't stop until they made it inside the hotel.

" .... Thanks, guys... " Thunder said.

" No problem. Let's get to the penthouse now, " Quake said. Thunder and Solar nodded and quickly made their way in the elevator to the penthouse.

They made their way to their room when Quake finally saw the box Leaf left for him at his door.

" What is this? " he said. He squated and took the box. " It's for all of us though. "
