Legendary Volume 3 - Guilty By Design

Chapter 10

Luke frowned with contempt as he walked with multiple bags strapped to his back. He brought up the rear behind a fairly happy Ursa and Lisa, who were still sipping from their jug sized smoothie cups from the group's last stop at a shack a little while ago. Amar'e led, his eyes glazed over his Nexus which was displaying directions. The four walked along a highway, like they had for the past two days since Lisa's car had gotten totaled. (AN: Fillers Volume)

They've been traveling for nearly a week since the night of the club fight, heading West since then. No contact had been made with Matthew or Mesto Mecha since and it almost seemed like it had been weeks since they set out. Luke's shoulders were beginning to feel heavy from the luggage and he couldn't help but begin to feel aggravated that he was the one carrying it for the past two days.

"Oye Amar'e, you wanna carry your load already? I'm tired of being the only one having to hold everything."

Lisa looked back towards him with a scowl on her face, "Oh you're tired? Well too bad, this is what you get. Amar'e shouldn't have to carry anything because he didn't wreck our mode of transportation."

"You still haven't gotten over it? I've already said we'll get you a new car and we've been buying you whatever you wanted for the past week. Stop your whining." Luke retorted.

A vein appeared on Lisa's head as she stared back with a forced smile and bared teeth, "Funny you would say that when you're the one whining like a little..."

Ursa blocked out the rest of their spat and sped up next to Amar'e. He didn't even seem to notice anything because his eyes were still fixed on his Nexus intently. Ursa could see the GPS map on it but couldn't make out what it said without moving in too close to Amar'e. She wouldn't mind doing it but she had grown a little self-conscious about getting extremely close to him now. Not because he'd mind because he didn't seem to care anymore. Actually, Amar'e seemed to grow found of her and her sister now and that was a part of the reason.

Ursa couldn't help but feel like she was legitimately beginning to develop feelings for him. Sure at first she thought of him as cute and was playing around with him but she didn't see him as a play thing anymore. Amar'e had been extremely kind, sweet and a determined leader as opposed to Luke's abrasive personality. She couldn't help but sigh as she watched him but she had failed to notice that he was studying her with a confused look on his face.

"You okay Ursa? You have a weird expression on your face." Amar'e commented.

Ursa jumped back, nearly squealing as she realized she let herself become infatuated.

"I w-was um, just wondering about Heather, Destiny and Eric! You still haven't told us about them." she fumbled about to say something to justify her longing face.

Lisa turned towards the two looking curious, "Hey she's right, you have never told us the full story about them and why they left."

Amar'e stared ahead, almost sighing, "You guys really want to hear about that now?"

"I mean, we have nothing else better to do you know." Lisa replied.

"Alright...well we already told you about how the masters were gathering disciples right?"

They both nodded their heads.

"Well Destiny and Heather weren't exactly brought in by the masters when they first went to looking for disciples," Amar'e said and Luke scoffed but was ignored, " I actually found them both unconscious and brought them to the dojo."

"Found them both unconscious?" they questioned curiously.

"Not at the same time. It was Destiny first. She ugh...well let's just say I found her while relaxing in a park one day. She was naked and alone, I couldn't just leave her there."
