Air Gear [Roleplay]

Kirino woke just in time to watch the sun rise. She hadn't noticed how long they'd been there, but apparently it'd been most of the night. Rising from her seated position against the rails on the pier, she worked out the kinks in her neck and yawned.


She remembered some of the stuff he'd said the night before, and frowned. She was in the same position as him at this point. No family- not a real one, anyway. Sensei had been everything to her. Back when he was alive, he was all she had, and his death had been painful for her. Sometimes she thought she could still hear him laughing at her when she fell down, cheering her on, giving her advice.


"The sky is yours for the taking, Kiri-chan." she murmured. "All you've got to do is reach for it."
 
Martin woke up seeing her standing and watching the sunrise Sunrise?? I fell asleep on the ground?? He sat up from the pier. "At least I didn't fall asleep on dirt." he muttured to himself. He yawned and rubbed his eyes. He repeated Kiri "The Sky is yourss for the taking, Kiri-chan." He smiled "All you've got to do is reach for it." He stood up and looked at the sunrise "Whoever taught you that had the right thing in mind." He sighed.
 
Kirino spun around in surprise, she hadn't noticed he'd woken up.


"It doesn't matter now." She snapped, "I'm going for something to eat, I'll talk to you later if you aren't dead by then."


She turned and walked off the pier, heading in the direction of the closest cafe.
 
Martin watched her move passed him resisting the urge to stop her for a sec. "You're right... Talk to you later." He said putting his ATs on and moving off in search something to do. What was I thinking He rushed off and got bored before leaving the pier itself and turned to follow Kiri but silently.
 
::Tsuna was busy polishing his AT::


Tsuna "I'm coming Suiken!"


::Tsuna looked at his reflection in the high powered transport device::


Tsuna " I'll call you Spit fire."


::Tsuna's eyes sparkled as if there were another presence in the room suddenly. Tsuna grabbed his AT then ran down stairs::


Tsuna " Wait till you see what I did to the school wall Suiken.."


::Tsuna grinned before he grabbed a tortilla and made himself a breakkfast burrito for eating on the go::
 
::As Tsuna passed Suiken by the door, his mouth crammed full of eggy, cheezy, goodness, Suiken jabbed him in the side::


Suiken: "You pig! you make you wait for you, then I catch you eating a hot breakfast?"


::He laughed, and kicked off down the street.::


Suiken: "So... what did you do to the wall? some kind of trick pass?"
 
Wind rustled while Rina yawned, pulling an all-nighter was only tiresome when she became aware that she had.


“Hey”


Rina tensed, practically jumping out of her skin as she span her whole body to look at the person who had greeted her. A big hulk of a guy was standing there, about the same age as her with messy black hair. She smiled after her initial shock was gone,


“Hi” she greeted.


Their meeting was quick though, as a girl with auburn hair entered the scene slowly gliding on her air treks. It was when she was looking at the ground that Rina saw the guy was wearing a nice pair of AT’s and briefly looked back up at him. She couldn’t possibly steal again…


It seemed then that the girl finally noticed them, staring at the both of them; after her quick spiel on whether the two of them were customers or not, she let them in. Entering cautiously Rina looked at the cars in the building and then back at the girl, who had just taken off her AT’s.


Only to throw a wrench at the person entering loudly, Rina waited for the girl to not be so…busy. When she finally got asked what she needed help with she sighed, pulling out the plastic bag that contained her broken AT’s and plopping it on the desk.


“Can you fix these, or are they a goner?"
 
Kumiko frowned and opened the bag, dumping out the AT pieces, she put a hand to her chin and began to shift through the parts; thinking carefully on everything she saw. She picked up one particular piece and held it up, so the overhead lights shone through it; before setting it down. "I'll be honest when I say I don't usually fix Air Treks, but I'll do my best." She said honestly, hey... The best policy is to always be honest... At least then it's a bigger spectacle when you completely blow their socks off with how awesome she can fix things.


"So, here's the deal from what I see. The engine looks like it's still intact so I should be able to fix it. However the frame... Sheez it's like a jig-saw puzzle gone wild. The only way I'll probably be able to fix it is to either super glue it, or duct tape it. Your best bet is to buy a new one, but I can save the engine and wheels if you'd like?" Kumiko offered, leaning on the front desk casually.
 
::Suiken skated to school (which was mostly downhill, so it went by pretty fast). Now that it was daytime, Suiken could feel the full effects of the AT on the road, The wind ripped through his hair, the birds flew overhead singing as they flew, it was almost a perfect day, until he met "them". Standing off the side of the road were a small unfriendly group of Stormriders::


Stormrider 1: "Well Lookie here...! it's fresh meat!"


Stormrider 2: "Lets kick his ass, Teach him to ride in OUR territory!"


::The first Stormrider charged at Suiken, swinging a fist wrapped in brass knuckle. Suiken dodged backwards instinctively, but ran flat into a third member standing behind him::


Stormrider 3: "Gotcha! lets have some fun with this punk"


::Suiken's ATs grated feebly against the pavement as the Stormrider held him tight, the other Stormrider rushed forward to deliver a crushing blow, but Suiken remembered his special trick he had developed the previous night::


Suiken: {Corkscrew principle... I can do this...}


::He dug his heals into the pavement, and released the shock wave being compressed by both wheels simultaneously, the Stormrider holding Suiken lost his balance as Suiken switch directions almost instantaneously, throwing him in front of the crippling blow. The Stormrider cried out, and crumpled to the pavement::


Suiken: "One down! two to go! looks like the odds are more in my favor now punk!"
 
Okita grimaced, he never could get accustomed to the poor and way too swift fate of ATs.


" I can lend you a pair of ATs in the meantime, if you have trouble buying a new pair right away... " He said nonchalantly at the other customer.


" I assume you also live in this city, right? "
 
Kirino found a small cafe a few minutes away and bought herself a sandwich. She found herself an empty table and took a big bite, then choked a bit. Tuna... ew.


I should really start paying attentiion when I buy stuff... she decided, grimacing. She dropped the sandwich back on the plate and slouched in her seat. She'd wasted the last of her money on that sandwich, too. What a pain.


She pressed her foot against the bag that contained her Air Treks. If anyone took those, she'd go crazy.
 
Martin saw Kiri go into a small cafe and he stopped for a minute "Now should I stay here and eat or go to my backup spot" He thought for a few and decided to go in "Well gotta try something new right" He shrugged as he walked through the door and went to order something not noticing where Kiri went. He ordered a bowl of soup tired of having bread and sat down waiting, a few seconds later they called him over and he got his soup and went back to his seat right near the door. "We'll I'm in, what to do now I guess I'll wait for orders" He sighed drinking the soup.
 
Kirino saw Martin come in, and moved to sit at the same table as him.


"Are you stalking me?" she asked in all seriousness. "And if so, are you going to come at me with a knife if I try to call the police?"
 
::Tsuna smiled at his brother his throat still warm from the nice ooooozy breakfast he had.::


Tsuna" You'll see."


::Tsuna dashed out of the door::


Tsuna "woohoo."


::Tsuna rolled down hill the wind hitting his body so fast and hard that it took every ounce of his being to keep from blowing away. Suddenly some goons grabbed his brother::


Tsuna " Brother are these punks ruffing you up? Let me demonstrate to them how I marked up that wall!"


::Tsuna sped up he made sure to keep his momentum::


Tsuna{ For me momentum is key!}


Tsuna " After image principle!!"


:: Tsuna turned in a three sixty spin riding on his momentum as much as he could. Before a while the punk was seeing double. The punk got really confused then the real Tsuna quickly punched him in the face::


Tsuna{ Ow my hand.... Oh well.}


::Tsuna grinned as he dug his heels into the ground cracking into the asphalt::


Tsuna " It's imperfect...."


::Tsuna looked down whispering the previous statement under his breathe.::


Tsuna " I'm still not fast enough to execute more than one movement..."


:: Tsuna clenched his fist.::


Tsuna { I will eliminate this.}
 
Martin looked at Kiri for a sec "No, well I wanted to know where you all ate... I was going to go to my back up spot but I was to lazy to go across town just for a quick bite." He sighed "Want me to leave then" anger tainting his voice slightly as he stood up. He shifted out of the booth and started walking to the door. "Tell me when you got me a job then." He didn't take his AT's off and left not rushing anywhere, just went with the cool breeze at random.
 
Kirino puffed up her cheecks. Jeez, that guy had one hell of a temper sometimes, it was like he took everything she said so seriously for some reason.


She looked down at Martin's half-eaten soup. No use wasting it, right?


And with that, she pulled the bowl to her side of the table and starting slurping it up happily.
 
Martin picked up speed slowly and wandered still aimless for hours, he found himself back at his old Crew's hideout "What the..."


"Hey Prick!!" His old 2nd in command yelled "What are you doing back here!!" Martin turned "god dammit" Martin stopped completely "Your dead!!!" The other man yelled at Martin charging him Martin was ready to counter when he was suddenly grabbed from behind, the man collided into him with an AT still going pointed straight at his stomach "Gahk!!" Martin coughed up blood Damn he wasn't up for a fight now...
 
“The engine?” she questioned.


Rina remembered how the engine had stopped when she tried out her idea,


“I think I need a new engine…or a more powerful one, I’m trying to do something…” she notes.


Looking at the pieces again, she really wanted to keep her first pair of Air Trek’s her eyes darted to the mechanic again, then at the guy behind her as he spoke


“Thank you for the offer, I owe you big time” she said with a sigh.


“Yeah I live in the city…” she noted.


Then she looked back at the pieces and picked one of them up, and she got an idea.


“If I can get the installments I need, would you be able to put them together…? Along with a new frame and everything too…a custom Air Trek, but…I also want to keep a part of my old Air Treks on them. One of the jigsaw pieces or something, they are my first pair of Air Treks…” she trailed


She laughed a little.


“Am I asking the impossible?” she questioned.
 
Martin spat blood in the ones eyes and broke the ankle of the one that was holding him still. "Is that all" He roared blood splattering a bit. "You pick a fight with me, unfair at that, and you still lo--" He was decked right across the face sending him flying and hitting the ground hard, Cory was there in less then a second kicking Martin off the roof of a small construction shack building and hitting the ground again painfully.


Martin turned over onto his hands keeping himself from vomiting blood as well as trying to steady himself. Cory helped Martin up then punched him again sending him into the wall, Martin could barely stand How can I lose... He blacked out.


Cory's crew brought Martin back to the pier and dropped him off there with a note Watch where you go, this is your only warning. You are never welcomed back here again!! •©º®¥• Martin laid there half conscious "I... guhh..."
 
Kumiko looked up at her customer. "You don't need a new engine just yet, I can fix it. Most likely there's some rust build up which caused it to stop working, I just need some time to take it apart and clean it. Should be good as new." She paused for a moment and put on a thoughtful face as she rubbed her chin. "Nah, it's quite do-able actually. Just get me the parts and a list of the requirements you want from your Air Trek. Then just give me a deadline and I'll get it done for you. It's quite common for people who become attached to their vehicles to desire a small part of their old car put into their new one. I do it all the time."


Though she didn't mention this would be the first time Kumiko would be doing it for an AT.
 
“Great! I’ll have the list by tomorrow, the parts will probably take some time though” Rina explained.


All the girl could think of was how she was going to get the money to pay for the Air Treks and nothing else. She slowly tallied the price for the new frame, base and the special features she wanted, including air chambers. There was a pair of regalia that they were going to be based on…


“I guess you can throw the rest out…or whatever you do with spare parts” she noted


She then turned towards the guy behind her again;


“About those Air Treks…?” she asks with a smirk.


Even though getting a job was the first thing on her to do list, she knew she couldn’t survive without flight.


Maybe she'd be able to earn money in the process too!
 
::Suiken backed off and spun around so he was facing back to back with Tsuna::


Suiken: "Just one punk left, huh? That'll teach em not to mess with the NightHawks!"


::The lone standing punk ran a few steps back, and shouted::


Punk: "You've done it now! you've messed with the black cyborgs! we OWN half this side of town! wait till our leader hears about this, he'll come and kick your but!"


::Suiken glanced at his brother in a quizzical manner::


Suiken: "What's up with him? he's gonna get help?"


::but the lone punk was already skating away as fast as he could::
 
Looking from the broken down ATs to the girl who brought them in he sighed.


" I feel sorry for ya, mate. As I said, I can lend you some ATs as long as you promise to give them back, oh and give me your adress so I can find you if you don't. But I'm sure ya will. " He smiled as he said the last sentence, he didn't know this person at all but he didn't think she was going to steal them anyway.


" We can go pick them up now if you want? Maybe even race a bit or do a tag-game afterwards?


" You are free to come too by the way. "
He said at the mechanic.


" Seeing as you ride ATs too I figured you might want to. "

::Suiken Watched the stormrider flee across the rooftops, trying to shake off the weight of his words, and the adrenaline that was still coursing through his veins. ::


Suiken: "Well, that was... something... I wonder if he'll be back?"


::Suiken turned back down the hill, and coasted towards the school for a bit, soaking up the morning sun on his back::


Suiken: "Anyways, back to slightly more pleasant things, I heard a rummer... there was a guy in our class, who was really good at ATs..."
 
::Tsuna skated next to his brother. His head tilted to the side::


Tsuna" Oh, We should pay him a visit. Shouldn't we?"


::Tsuna was still a bit antsy from the encounter he span circles around his brother::


Tsuna " It could turn out to be fun."
