I Should Thank You

Chapter 9| Improvement

Knock Knock

"What the hell?" I say groggily.

Knock Knock

"Shut up," I say a little bit louder.

I'm just trying to sleep, yesterday has been so hectic. After being dragged around till midnight really made me so tired. So whoever it is GO AWAYYY.

The door to my room flings open and my blanket gets thrown off way too far for me to go and grab it again.

"Get up or did you forget that training starts today." a voice said.

I slowly opened my eyes while shivering in the process. Dazai appears through my vision standing in front of my bed with crossed arms.

"You better be grateful I'm spending some of my free time doing this so get up."

Ugh iT's not Even 8 am.

I close my eyes for a few seconds before pushing myself to a sitting position.

"Fine... give me 10."

I sluggishly stand up and head to the bathroom while breaking out in a couple of yawns.

As I turn around to close the door, Dazai leaves the room.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

10 minutes later more or less

I enter into the small living room wearing somewhat sportswear that Riku gave me before with a few other clothes.

I notice Dazai peacefully sitting on the couch sipping on a cup of coffee.

The fragrant aroma drifted around and gave me a sense of calmness that I haven't truly felt in a long while.

He noticed my still self just stand and stare through the bedroom's door frame and decided to speak up now that he knew I was here.

"You're done. Here sit down and drink this quickly so we can get going," he says.

That's a surprise. I didn't think he'd do that. It's probably just nothing but,

"Thank you" I reply as I take a sip from the steaming cup.

After a few minutes of silence and me trying to drink up fast, I emptied the once full cup and we left for one of the vacant training rooms that's in this part of the base.

There were quite a few of them and they were all full of men and even women. They looked really scary. Most of them were unbelievably huge covered in piercings and tattoos, just what you would imagine the average criminal.

"See this room here? These are private quarters for executives and some high-rank members, You'll be training in here whenever" Dazai states.

We go in and I can tell it's already way bigger than viewing it through the glass in the hallway.

"First things first, I want to see how good your fighting skills are for myself," Dazai says.

"Wait, you want ME to fight YOU?"

"Yes."

He's joking, right? He's got to be kidding. Well, I have to hand it to him, he's pretty gusty to wanna fight me. He saw me fight yesterday, shouldn't he be a little scared. I hope he knows he doesn't have a chance. I've taken on men three sizes bigger than still wipe out their asses. Not gonna lie, he looks pretty scrawny. Well, I'll just say 'told ya so' after I beat him. He better be prepared.

"Well, you're asking for it."

Standing a little way away from Dazai, I prepare myself in a single stance that breaks as soon as I charge for Dazai in a sprint.
