Give that credit to Xyphate (Yes, refer to KH High School Times). The whole idea for KHS to have firebirds as their mascot is actually made up by me. Here is the replacement cast. (This happens after KH High School Times.)
So, I was just kidding about the wild card class which happens to be reading with Ryutaro! XD
Let us switch to P.E class where, even though Wang Hu Zhong is not part of the DNO or Star breakers, OR HD Academy for that matter, the Brazialian team has yet mysteriously gone for another vacation, so it's up for Da Xiang and the rest of WHZ to teach martial arts in P.E! :D
Note: This is their first time teaching at KHS. Hope they won't get fired by TCPS.
So it turned out that oddly P.E was next, although reading was next on the schedule, I, Sora, and Angelique quietly walked towards the doors to the gym, where we purposely crossed over to the Zodiac Wheel drawing in chalk that took up half of the courtyard.
Sora and Angelique stopped abruptly by the drawing, their faces taking turns of sudden surprise as I walked ahead, caring nonetheless about the stupid wheel anyway. I really didn't gain so much interest in what year of the animal you were born, because that sounded too silly and stupid to believe in anyways. I was walking 3 ft. ahead when I turned around to see Sora kneeled down and rubbed his fingers against the sun beaten scorching concrete floor.
"Look, Angelique." He pointed out. "Looks like maybe someone smeared the chalk linings on the wheel."
"Oh yeah. It looks like whatever he or she thought it was, it maybe looked like it was fun to destroy class property, right?"
"Yeah." Sora agreed as he stood up and walked toward me. "So what's next?"
"Our schedule says it's supposed to be Reading and L.A, but strangely it's P.E next."
"Oh." He bluntly said as he looked up to see Angelique walking towards us.
"Alright, lets go." She signaled with a wave, beckoning to follow as if she became the leader of our trio or friends group lately.
Once we entered, the gym doors were to our left while the locker rooms were to the right. In the middle that separated both boys and girls was the Coach's room. Coach Xigbar. Always when class started, he would either greet us in the gym as soon as we came dressed freshly in our gym clothes or we would wait for him until he came from his office.
This time, I knew the Freeshooter was not there at all, since all of the KHS teachers we almost knew and had were free for the first and second semester while on break under the confirmed order from TCPS.
Peeking through the window of the locked door, I expected Enzo to be playing computer games on the widescreen IT. (Haha! That monkey!)
But oddly, there was no Xiggy. (and no. I did not get the nickname giver adaptation from Demyx.)
Instead, no one was there except for a beautiful high collared, white sleeveless coat with yellow fur trim draped on the chair, not to mention another coat, rather a shirt which was teal in color with yellow crests marking the shoulders of the cotton fabric, was carelessly thrown across the desk along with a kimono hat and some I-ching Chinese coins hiding under the hat. Sora should obviously know which of these clothes belonged to which character.
"What are you staring at, Roxas?" Sora suddenly piped up, almost making me jump out of my skin in fear.
"Sora! Don't scare me like that!" I hissed sternly as I allowed him to take a peek.
He then reeled back in fear as if he'd just seen a scary ghost peek back at him.
Softly gasping and placing a hand to cover his mouth, he leaned his mouth toward my ear and whispered something that was supposedly non DNO, Starbreakers, or HD Academy related.
"It's Wang Hu Zhong." He whispered in surprise as he immediately ran towards the gym doors.
"What's with Sora?" Angelique playfully giggled as she joined by my side.
"I don't know. He peeked into Coach Xigbar's room and immediately knew it was the Chinese blading team substituting for Garcias." I shrugged in reply, as we both calmly walked towards the gym, curious to see what they were gonna teach us. Oh boy. I hope it's not karate or even worse, Beyblading. Sora would immediately join in and try his best to defeat the Zurafa blader with his customized top which was really in reality as a toy.
As soon as we entered the gym of KHS, our looks on our faces suddenly turned around.
There he was. The long dark hair with yellow highlights on the side. The large, green eyes and fair skin. His build is slim and compact with an evident musculature that most likely comes from his martial arts style training. Over a red, white lined shirt is a high collared, white sleeveless coat with yellow fur trim which was now replaced with a gray martial arts training top. A pair of loose white pants, end just above his ankles. On his arms is a pair of black, red and yellow fingerless gloves that come up to his elbows. A pair of dark blue and gray Chinese martial arts shoes complete his clothing.
After about a few slow punches, and fast kicks in the air (and not to mention the 'Hiyas!') He suddenly noticed us with his large dark emerald green eyes, sort of like Axel's.
"Hello there, class." He greeted while bowing down respectfully, "I'm Da Xiang Wang. You can call me Coach Wang or Da Xiang for short. Beware that me and my blading team here are substituting for Team Garcia and this is our first time teaching at this school. Please be respectful to your teachers today for I believe this is P.E. class and today we're going to show you some basic martial arts moves. This could be useful in your daily life for this is a good way to start up your day and become defensive against any danger around you."
The class nodded in understanding as the three of us found it very typical of a group of Chinese sub teachers trying to teach us martial arts. Well, at least for Angelique who looked very paled at the sight of Chao-Xin, sitting by the bleachers, currently in a dazzling conversation with his favourite students.
"Omg, so you're part of a professional sports team!?" Jenna's eyes glinted with hope as she squealed in fan girl excitement.
"Well, yeah. Beyblading, right?" the virgo blader smiled, showing his flashy teeth, but then he decided to keep it shut for he remembered that time when Da Xiang punched him hard in the jaw for accidently flirting with his sister. But that indeed happened a year ago, so visiting the dentist occasionally was quite a nightmare.
Jenna Clark and Ashley Krugler scooted towards him a little tighter and looked up at him with sparkly eyelashes and non stopping blinks.
"Beyblading?" Jenna playfully scoffed. "I never heard of that before, but I think you'd be perfect for Struggle! No, I mean it!"
"Yeah!" Ashley agreed. "We'd had so many close match follow ups on our varsity team, I think you could beat Olympic Heights or Riptide Wave!"
Chao-Xin looked confused now, "Struggle? I never heard of that sport, ladies, but tell me. How do you play it?"
While Jenna and Ashley were too engrossed on explaining the rules of Struggle to the virgo blader, I turned my attention back to Duh Shyang, whatever his name is, demonstrating perfect techniques such as grappling and striking.
"Grappling stipulates how much the style actually uses grappling techniques such as throws, joint holds, take downs, chokes, and all body movements to attack. However for Striking, it's different. It basically stipulates how much the style actually uses striking techniques such as blocks, elbow strikes, knee kicks, punches, and kicks."
His clear basic detailed explanation of martial arts ended with a student moaning in pain on the basketball floor. Yes, you probably know who it is by now. Sam was now rubbing his cheek as he yet nursed another bump that magically popped out of nowhere in appearance.
"Heh, whoops!" he nervously blushed and rubbed the back of his neck with an effect of an anime tear that appeared beside his conspicuous hairdo.
With Chi-Yun and Mei-Mei helping him up, Da Xiang volunteered for a student to come up and demonstrate it with him. It turned out that Sora was the Bey fan here, so I and Angelique closely watched closely as Sora punched with all his might towards the Zurafa blader's hands, only for his own to flap around in constant pain.
"Heh, I didn't warn you guys that I am strong, right?"
"Ow, dang. You do have some iron steel hands right there, Da Xiang. I can't wait to see you punch the gym floor. Then we'd be flying off of the ground with your 'Crushing Blast.'"
"I'm afraid that Zurafa can only do that special move. Heh, I wish I could do it." he thought about it closely before replying, "But then your school would fire us if I actually did that. You know what? Come and attend BeylinSchool. That way you'd learn anything you'd want." Smiling, he offered a hand and Sora agreed to shake it. "Ha, only if my mom would allow!"
Everybody in the gym shared a laugh.
"Alright, then Sora. Show me some kicks." Da Xiang helpfully continued, tying to get the younger to think about a certain kick.
"Uh, I can't think of any." He honestly shrugged.
"Okay, it's alright then. Does anybody know any basic kicks?" he asked out loud. None of them raised their hand except for Jenna, who waved it in emergency just to get his attention.
"Hm, one of Chao-Xin's girls wanna demonstrate it with me, huh? I think I better pick the spiky blonde guy here."
Wow, why did he pick me? I mean, I was not necessarily a fan of karate or martial arts although Ventus taught me a few moves.
"C'mon Roxas! You can do it!" Angelique whispered excitedly.
Okay, just a round house kick won't be that bad. Sure why not? I'm curious to see how either Axel or Demyx would demonstrate a round house kick towards Mr. Wang. Probably the pyro could get it perfectly while our Melodious Nocturne would twirl around clumsily and kick someone else in the head instead. Yeah, ADHD for him.
The Zurafa blader adjusted my standing position while saying, "Always remember to be positioned when performing a roundhouse kick, okay?"
I nodded in understanding. Slightly twisting my body to the right, and my foot placed in front of the other, as I stared and focused my target for his right hip.
"Whenever you're ready Roxas." He smirked as he continued staring back at me, hoping that I would clearly mess up on the spot.
"Hiya!" I wailed as I twisted my body and raised my right leg in the air juxtaposed to my target, only for his hand to cleverly snatch my foot, making me wobble out of slight balance. The class gave out a surprised gasp (including Angelique and Sora who gave out an encouraging thumbs up.) I smiled in return, but then it suddenly changed to look of shocking awe, not even believing in how he did it in the first place.
"H-How did you do that?" I asked in sudden amazement.
"Timing is the answer to everything, Roxas. You just have to find out when it strikes. Just like a snake." At the mention of snake, I still wondered if Reiji was not fired yet. I had to find out when science approached.
Shaking my hand in congratulating me for what I had just done, he dismissed me back to my seat and announced that we had 5 minutes left of class, so it turned out that we naturally brought up the speech of the roundhouse kick.
"Roxas! You were great over there!" Angelique said, hugging me softly.
"I really wondered how he caught your foot at such an amazing speed!" Sora said in awe as he now climbed down the steps from the bleachers and skipped towards Da Xiang, who was quietly conversing with Chi-Yun and Mei-Mei.
"Heh, just something that I learned from Ventus." I blushed nervously as I saw my class filed into a line formation, excited to see what Da Xiang, Chi-Yun, and Mei-Mei were handing out.
"Are those fortune cookies?" Sora questioned, as he looked ahead at the Zurafa blader ruffling some kid's hair in encouragement of his behavior.
"Looks like it." Angelique replied quietly as she curiously peeked at Sora's slip of paper.
"Whay are hu so cuvious!" he said playfully through a mouthful of the crescent shaped vanilla cookie.
"Just looking." She laughed in return as she felt a tug by Mei-Mei.
"Thank Ou fo bei'in good fuday!" she smiled, "Here ou goh! Chinese fortone ookie for ou!"
"Uh, thanks." She nervously smiled, wondering how she needed important speech therapy if she were to live on this planet.
Finally, I approached Da Xiang, who simply smiled at me and extended out his hand to reveal a fortune cookie for me. "Um, why thank you."
"You did well, Roxas. Someday if the BeylinTemple is imageneered, I'd have to invite you and give you some serious training. Perhaps you could bring your friends along too and we'll invite you and your friends to our restaurant. Hard work needs well earned rest. Take care buddy." He too, ruffled my hair, which is strange because Sora told me that Chao-Xin is the only one on the team that usually does that to who ever he hangs out with. But really, if it really were P.E subs between team China or Brazil, then I'd pick Wang Hu Zhong just because they're kinder and not so pushy other than Garcias. (With the exception of Faust, of course.)
And mostly, those kind green eyes of his make me want to see Axel again. I don't why but he seems very responsible for the leadership of his team and I really feel like he's training hard (whether in blading or Martial arts) and he's proud of his team.
I felt as if Da Xiang was the nicest, kind sub that was ever replaced with Xigbar, of course. He never got very challenging on the basic kicks part. He allowed me to take my time on the kick and softly and accurately block of all of Sora's punches. He even encouraged me on the kick and invited me someday to train at BeylinTemple and even have a good buffet at their restaurant.
Glancing at my slip of paper from the cookie, it gave out a proverb that read: Joy comes from adventure today. Time to shake the world.
On the back it gave out a Chinese word for sugar which was tang. And some lucky numbers for me to win the lottery next time.
The bell suddenly rang, snapping my thoughts apart from my head. In reality, we were late. We had to quickly change our clothes from gym to casual then rush off to our next period.
"C'mon Roxas!" Sora called out as he yanked my hand for I never left the sight of the Zurafa blader. Honestly, I'm no homo but he reminded me of Axel very much, please don't tell me why.
Once we were out of sight, the doors to the gym slammed shut and Team Wang Hu Zhong prepared to go home.
"No way in the hell I'll go to Algebra class!" Ashley announced as she sat on Chao-Xin's lap, "I can go on talking to this guy forever!"
"Yeah! He's so cute! I think he's much better than Xemmy!" Jenna agreed.
Ashley gasped, "Omg! Jenna! You wouldn't actually say that in front of him, would you?"
"Are you freakin serious? Hell yes!" Ashley countered as Chao-Xin blushed at the awesome convey between the two said juniors.
"Uh, thanks girls but you have to go to your next class." Da Xiang reasoned as he stood in front of them, arms crossed in a friendly manner. "Chi-Yun will write you a late pass, okay?"
"Okay." Both girls sadly mumbled as they picked up their fortune cookies and pink slips respectfully and left.
"So, what now?" Chi-Yun asked, as they all walked towards coach Xiggy's office.
Opening the door, Da Xiang heaved a sigh, "Well, we could either go back for some more training at the BeylinTemple or go have a fun feast at our restaurant. Sound okay?"
Mei-Mei shrugged, "lokay."
After they got changed into their blader clothes, Da Xiang picked up his keys to his Dodge Journey off of the desk and smirked at his teammates in return, "Ready?"
They all nodded in understanding and headed off towards the courtyard.
Pausing by the firebird statue that was placed in the middle, he looked up skyward and closed his eyes as a form of commingling.
Roxas, the key to your weapon is in your body, not with the blade. Joy comes from adventure today. Time for you to shake the world.
Yay! It was so awesome to see Roxas try out some basic martial arts kicks with Da Xiang! And for Wang Hu Zhong teaching P.E instead of Garcias, I just came up with that from my head. I mean team Brazil is truly annoying, so why not let team China get a chance?
Annnnd….. I think History with Julia is next! Oh gosh. Did I almost say his seme/parody name? XD
PLEASE REVIEW! :D
