Academy days (Book 2 of IA)

[7] Extra coaching

I was back in the underground MS training facility, even though it was in IIMT, the trip had to be done by skytrain. To give you a picture of how ridiculously big our school was, our school had scattered dorms housing up to 10,000 people. It also had 12 arenas including the one in the center. The school also have 12 arenas (including the one in the center), although the rest aren't as big and grand as Arena 1, they are still quite a considerable size. By the sea, there was a harbour, hydro dam, small aquarium, and even a coral reef farm. Around the center of the campus was a semi-circle of skyscrapers containing a mall, 100+ restaurant, gym, spa...etc. On the hills beyond was a vast stretch of berry fields and wind turbines. What's even more eye bulging is that the entire sky train tracks that run around the campus have a length of well over a hundred kilometers, with some parts of it even hovering directly over the sea.

If would be great if I can view it with her...

"Humble gods, please let our new coach be a hot chick..." Rumbled clasped his hand in serious prayer, and all I can do is stare at him blankly.

"Hey! What's wrong with being honest?"

"Nothing." That was an honest statement by me, though I find the notion of wishing this kind of thing openly as highly stupid, nothing else really.

"The two chicks in our team, they're first class..." Rumble gurgled, "But they're scary!" Rumble shook me by the shoulder and I simply remained poker face.

"Yeah, yeah. And why are you even here with me?" I asked, as the elevator door opened and we both stepped off.

"I wanted to meet the new coach! Plus, Dr. Cherrylove encouraged all of us to get more training; so I say: 2 eagles 1 arrow!"

I didn't bother to correct his idioms, it was probably an idiom in his native lands, judging from the way he said it. The moment we came into the light of the training grounds, an energetic shout echoed through the place:

"V for victory! I for intelligence! C for cute! GO VIC!" the long-haired figure shot her first into the air as she finished cheering.

We both stared at our new trainer speechless, then she turned around very rapidly and faced us. Instead of seeing her the slightest bit awkward, her face held only confidence.

"WOW! You guys are early! You guys probably just heard my intro, so you can both just call me Vic. From today on, I will be your new coach!" she threw a punch in the air, and gave a large energetic smile, showing off her perfect teeth.

Vic appeared to be in her early twenties and about the same height as me. She had long curly blond hair along with large dazzling blue eyes. Combined with her lean, curvy build... (ahem). Her yellow tank top showed off bits of her abs, though they nowhere as flattering as Isa's. For legs, I noticed she wore black yoga pants, and down from her knees too below, her legs were covered in yellow plated armor going all the way down to her foot in the form of a boot.
Realizing it was rude to stare, I quickly looked up to see if she was offended. She noticed my eyes and said:

"Ah! Those are robotic legs if you are wondering! Don't you think they're cool? They can do a lot of things normal legs can't!"

Completely caught off guard by how easy going she was I gaped, stunned as she took the opportunity to demonstrate by tapping her feet twice, followed by a clicking sound. The two of us watch in silence as a row of roller wheels popped up from the bottom of her feet.

"Jiang! Jiang!" She struck a ballerina pose as she drifted in circles around us.
After gods knew how many circle and ballerina poses, she finally stopped before us. And by that point, the classic hovering circle of angels, has been replaced by a hovering circle of Vic's.
