"You think your being pushed to the limit right?" Ben asked as they walked. "Your tired and sore. But trust me. Gwen's going easy on you."
Roxie rolled her eyes. "Just no leaving the house'
"Ranch dressing is fine" she said
"You're here to see Sam aren't you?" The Waiter asked.
They got to Mr. Smoothies which had a huge selection. Herb felt some of the items here didn't belong
"No just felt like getting a bite to eat" she said
Ben got a carrot smoothie and bought Herb a blueberry smoothie. "So you can sleep at my place. We'll be getting up at five every morning and going on a 10 mile run." Ben said.
"Hmm." The Waiter said writing down her order. "Alright the salad will be here shortly." He walked off.
"Thanks" she said.
He came back with her Salad.
Ben looked at him. "Human beings if they pace themselves correctly can outrun a horse with minimal training and running experience. Not because we're faster but because we will out distance them. We have the capability and endurance to do difficult things even if they seem hard. People who join the military recieve this kind of training on week dude." Ben said. "This isn't about my life being screwed over. Being a superhero is awesome. But it did force me to change. And if being a super hero is a good deal more difficult than being a soldier. You want to be able to handle yourself without powers you train. You push yourself to the absolute limit of capabilities and you break through. But fine. We'll start smaller. 5 miles."
"That's too bad." Tyson says. "You could mess around and accidentally kill one of my targets, and that's no bueno."
Ben sighed. "Look man... Call me screwed up if you want but being a hero requires discipline and training." He said. "I learned that hard way. You want to be a hero you have train, you have to be dedicated, and you have to push yourself. But it's your call. We'll run one mile each day. And cut the martial arts training to two hours." Ben said
"Oooh the poor little mercenary loses a target Soo saaad." Harry said. "Hey plenty of people want other people dead so grow back bone and stop bitching about it."
" thank you." She said as she got her food. For a split second she zoned out but bit went easily unnoticed by most.
A smirk grows on Tyson's face.
Sam walked past her. "Hey!" He yelled at someone. He walked to up one of his waiters. "You never treat the customer like that. You hear me ever even if they say something you don't like." He said. The customer whoever it was seemed to have said something rude cuz then Sam turned to him. "And you. You can't say that to people
"I know. Martial Arts isn't brute Force. In fact it's kind of the opposite. And trust me. No matter your role of you participate in the hero game you need to have the physical and mental capabilities to Handel yourself in a fight." Ben said. He looked at Herb. "Well then we'll make an excuse to your Mom when we get back."
