"Wake up already."

A shadowy figure hovered over Ryou as he slowly opened his eyes.

"Wha..what time is it?"

"It's 8 in the morning. Which is generous of me. If you don't do well with today's training, you'll get up at 6, and so forth."

Ryou jolted up. He soon realized he was in a hotel room. Since yesterday, they had taken a train together to a hotel, and that was it. No training, no nothing. Just arriving at a hotel. Tsukasa obviously had nowhere to stay, since he was travelling with Ryou. The school decided to "generously" give Tsukasa money to help him with his internship with Ryou.

"Are you not already dressed?" Tsukasa just finished fixing the collar on his suit. "Get dressed, and meet me on the roof in 10 minutes. Training starts as soon as we can."

"Wait...what about something to eat?"

Tsukasa pointed to a granola bar and apple on the nightstand next to Ryou. "I'd hurry. 10 minutes isn't a lot of time." He strolled out, closing the door on his way out.

Ryou rubbed his eyes, slowly making his way out of bed. "Geez. This isn't going to be good."

********************************************************

Tsukasa tapped his foot impatiently, waiting by the door to the roof.

The door flung open, as Ryou burst out, and fell flat on his face.

"Wow, even with a minute to spare. Maybe you aren't as bad as I thought."

Ryou got up, trying to catch his breath. "So...what first?"

Tsukasa pointed across to the building opposite to him. "Go over to that building, and use a Ridewatch that isn't speed-related and avoid what I'm firing at you."

"What did you say?"

"I'm going to shoot at you, do your best to deflect the shots or avoid them. If you get hit 5 times, you'll climb down the stairs, back up, without the help of your powers, and attempt it again."

Ryou felt like collapsing. "Really? Isn't that...kind of...harsh?"

"Are you questioning my methods?"

Ryou quickly jumped over to the other building, which luckily wasn't a far jump, and faced off against Tsukasa.

"Fine. If that's what you want." Ryou took out a Ridewatch, and thrust it forward in front of Tsukasa. "I'm going with this!"

 "I'm going with this!"

"Henshin!"

Ryou clicked his Ridewatch, as a mixture of dark purple and white energy surrounded and enveloped him.

"Armor Time! Fang! Fang!"

"Armor Time! Fang!  Fang!"
