Chapter 2 - Before the beginning 2

Carver and Keth both woke up. The birds were chirping, the sun was out Shining beautifully. A slight breeze of wind washed over them as they both sat up slowly.

"You ready for today Keth?" Carver said, smiling.

"I'm ready," Keth said as a maid appeared right in front of them. Holding 2 plates with food. She had smooth skin, light skin, and Black curly hair.

"The king told me to bring you 2 food." The maid said handing them their food.

"Oh, thank you." Carver and Keth both sat back down to eat.

"Because you're going to be coming here every day, what's your name?" Carver said before taking a bite.

"My name is Lizzy, I'm 18-years old, I look forward to living with you."

"No need to bow, me and Keth are pretty trashy."

"Hey, I'm not trashy! But yeah, no need to bow."

"So Lizzy Tell us something about yourself"

"Well, I just arrived here about 6 hours ago to be exact. The king found me in an alleyway wrapped up in a blanket about to starve to death. He walked over to me and gave me some bread, then sat down next to me and began to talk to me. He said," "living on the streets must suck, hey how about you come to live with me." "I scooted away and was about to leave until he said" "Wait wait, I know that sounds really suspicious and weird but, to be honest, I kind of want a daughter, ya know. And I have two boys at home and I feel like they need a sister." "Then he stood up and reached out his hand and smiled. It sounded like he was being honest, so I decided to take a chance, and that's about the gist of it, I know it's sudden but..." Izzy looks desperate to be accepted by them.

"That does sound like something that Dad would do... well anyway welcome to the fam," Carver said peeking over at Keth waiting for his response.

"If Dad and Carver trust you and accept you then, I do too, like Carver said welcome to the family."

Izzy's eyes lit up when she smiled and said "Thank you, guys."

"And also we got to go and get you some more clothes you probably didn't have the chance to get any more because all the stores were closed when dad found you, so we'll make that the ejective when we have a chance. And why did you try to act like a maid when you showed up?" Keth said almost finished with his food.

"I'm Not very good at introducing myself, and a lot of stuff was running in my head so I was just all over the place. hehe."

"No need to be embarrassed, Keth sucks at introducing himself as well."

"I'm not that bad."

"No, you're pretty bad at it Keth." The king said, popping up behind Keth and Carver.

"When the hell did you get there!"

"Calm down I just got here. So you guys ready to train?"

"More ready than I'll ever be."

"That's the spirit Keth, oh and Izzy will be training as well. And don't worry I already told her how it's going to be like."

"Well as long as she's ok with it, then let's do this!"

Carver and Keth both jumped next to Izzy.

"Ready, set, go!"

Carver and Keth both jumped to the side and rushed him, While Izzy ran directly down the middle. Izzy did a jumping knee, The king caught the knee, and soon as Carver and Keth were about to punch his sides. The king jumped backward. Carver and Keth, already having running momentum, grabbed each other's hand and Carver spun and threw Keth at him. Keth then tried to punch the king but he blocked then kicked him away. Then before Izzy touched the ground Carver got under her and pushed from her feet sending her into the air. Carver then ran at The king and tried to punch him in his stomach, but the king Dodge and was about to hit him, that's when he saw a metal plate thrown by Izzy fly at him fast. The king moved his head out of the way feeling the wind from the plate pass by his face. Carver came to an instant stop, then went for a leg kick. Izzy was flying at the king, Keth got up and ran at him from behind. "it's over." The king said to himself as everything turned to slow motion. The king caught Carver's kick before it made it to him, and dragged him in front of Izzy then moved behind Keth and grabbed his hair. Then everything went back to normal. "AAAH!" Izzy punched Carver with all her strength. Sending him into the ground making a crater big enough to put a house inside of it. Then the king threw Keth at Izzy before the dust cleared, Keth's back smack Izzy stomach almost killing them both.

After that loss, they lost over and over again.

7 weeks later... The sun was bright and It was morning and they were out on the training grounds.

"Alright, You guys ready for training?" The king asked.

"This time we're going to kick your ass for sure!" Carver said, pointing at the king.

"Yeah! Keth you ready!?" Izzy said with new clothes on.

"You already know the answer."

"Alright then. Ready.... set... go!"

Keth ran at The king and threw a punch that the king blocked and returned with three jabs that landed on his right crus. Izzy then threw a Kunai at the king, he dodges to the left. Carver got behind the Kunai and caught it and threw it at the Kings back, the king dodge to the left but Keth caught the Kunai and threw it at the king. Before the Kunai reached The King, Izzy punches the ground destroying it sending a shockwave Knocking the King off balance. Right Before the Kunai hit the king, He caught it. But then the King was surprised by electricity that shot out of the Kunai into the King Faster and stronger than a natural lightning bolt. The King was dazed! Carver Ran at the King and a nanosecond before the king came to his senses, Everything went silent as Carver punched the King in the stomach "AAAH!" Carver yelled as Izzy came up behind him Punch him in the chest "AHNG!" Izzy yelled as Keth came up behind Her and punch the king in the face sending the king flying through dozens and dozens of trees "AREE!" Even though Keth sounded like a girl when he yelled, he still did.

"We...did it," Keth said. Carver, Keth, and Izzy all paused for a moment.

"....HELL YEAH!!" Carver yelled at the top of his lungs Keth and Izzy yelled right along with him.

Keth then collapsed from those punches he took earlier in the fight but was still awake.

"I'm ok. let me just take it easy for a minute."
