hamuko laid down beside senku with her arms and legs spread out. she was panting as hard as she could, trying to catch her breath after the furious blowing she did to heat the iron.

she didn't do much before she decided to give up, choosing to accept her fate and die again for the second time.

the burgundy haired was sweating so much, her stamina left zero to none. she was sure she was going to die again, in a slow, torturing, agonizing death.

in front of her were all four of her friends, doing their best to blow air to heat the iron, each one screaming in both determination and exhaustion.

"damn it, my arms are gonna fall off!" chrome cried out.

"if you slack off, the temperature will fall! get your ass up and help, lazy ass!" senku panted, half screaming to hamuko who senku was sure, already passed out.

"how many more minutes do we have to keep this up?" kohaku shrieked.

the science enthusiast took awhile to answer, "that's right. at least a few dozen hours." he answered.

"iron making is horrible!" all of them shouted in agony.

"don't push yourself too hard, suika. go rest!" the blonde girl spoke when she saw suika falling to what really seemed like her death.

all five of them passed out when the weight of exhaustion fell down on top of them, though hamuko woke up earlier than the rest, considering she was the first one to lose consciousness.

the burgundy haired sat down and groaned out in pain, her shoulders slumped down and her arms were numb.

she crawled to were senku was, dragging her body towards him and instantly slapping him on the face when she saw the science enthusiast's soul leave out of his mouth.

"sen... sen-kun, don't die on us."

said boy grunted, trying his best to push the girl's arms off his face, though didn't work as his arms refused to move from their spot.

hamuko stretched her arms, putting one hand under senku's body and making him sit up with all her might.

she then crawled to where chrome was, pinching his nose to make him wake up.

"spiky-kun.. if.. if you don't wake up, kiyo-baa-chan is going to drag you to the river and drown you there herself."

the brown haired boy woke up with a gasp, coughing and patting his chest. he was so dead tired, he swore he has never worked that hard before.

the girl then moved to suika, lifting her up in her arms, or more like, dragging the little girl to where kohaku was.

"koha-chan, suika-chan, wake up! sen-kun, wake up! spiky-kun, wake the eff up!" hamuko yelled in frustration when all of them went back to their unconscious state. she fell back to the ground, panting and wiping the sweat rolling down her forehead.
