The Journey Part 2: Out With The MJ & In With The Aja

Chapter 6: Chill Day

The next day Aja woke up Eva early that morning. "Huh?" Eva asked. "Come with me," Aja said and they left the room. "This is Oasis. This is our base outside of the city. We took over the abandoned parts of the city but there's still not enough space for all these people. All of these people lost their homes, family, and more. That's what we are fighting," Aja said and Eva looked around. "Oh my gosh, there are so many," Eva said. "We gotta end this as soon as possible or these people too will die," Aja said. 

Soon everyone else was us. They were all over the base today. Aja and her brothers eventually disappeared. "Has anybody seen Aja?" Ava asked. "Yeah, she should be training right now. We'll take you guys," Gwen said and they went to the gym that had a boxing ring in it. In it was Skyvern, Sharken, Grimm, and Terrador in the corners of the ring with Aja in the middle. They all looked beat and tired. "Are you ready?" Sharken asked. "Yeah," Aja said. "Okay, again!" Terrador said.

Terrador charged at her with a rock in hand. He threw it at her and she dodged it. She ran up to him and hit him a couple of times. She used her knuckles in the joints of his arms, kneed him in the back of his legs, she chopped him in the sides of his neck, and used her knuckles to hit him in the back. Hitting all of his pressure points to paralyze him. He fell to the mat. "Earth mages have to be grounded, and rock-like. So if you break their roots then make them loosen up and crumble," Aja said.

Skyvern charged her and tripped her. She smirked and landed on her hands. She kicked him and he fell back. He quickly got up and she came at him with a barrage of punch. She backed him up into the corner. Then she kicked him by the sides. He fell to the ground. "Sky mages have to be creative which means they use everything around them and have to think outside of the box. That also means that if you box them in and have all their attention on you, they can't pay attention to everything else and will have no other plans. That's how you beat them," Aja said

Grimm came at her with fire punches. She dodged his attacks and disappeared from their sight. "What?" He asked. She started to appear all around him. "Fire mages have to be focused and careful. If you make them confused it's over," Aja said and Grimm made a circle of fire. "They start to get careless just to protect themselves," Aja said as she snuck past his fire and gave him a good upper cut. He fell to the mat. "You get through their defenses easily and take them down,"  Aja said.

Sharken snuck up behind her, then put her in a choke hold, and slammed her into the floor. "Got you!" He said. "Water mages are sneaky and flexible," Aja said as she got up. "So you have to make them stiff so they can't get away," Aja said as she grabbed his arm. He tried to pull away but couldn't. "Damn it!" He said as he tried to turn his arm into water but once he did it turned into ice. "Oh crap!" He panicked. "Not getting away now, Sharky! Ah!" Aja said as she tossed him over her shoulder. She slammed him into the mat. 

"That's how you win a battle with all mages," Aja said out of breath. "But the only thing that can beat this girl is when all the people she loves jump her at once!" Her brothers said as they got. "What? AH!" Aja yelled as they jumped on her. "Got you!" They laughed as they landed on her. "Doesn't matter I still won!" Aja said and they tickled her. She burst out laughing. "Say, we are the best brothers ever and that we've won!" Sharken said. "No way!" Aja laughed and they kept on tickling her. "Help!" Aja said and they stopped tickling her. She tried to get up but they pulled her back down. "Aw, come on!" Aja said. "Nope! You're going to sit here and hang with us! Just like old times! The dragon pile!" Terrador said. "Come on, we're not kids anymore," Aja said. "Who cares? Are you saying that you don't like spending time with your brothers anymore? That hurts," Grimm said. "I never said that it's just-" Aja was cut off. "Go ahead take a load off! We got the base for the day," Doc said and Aja sighed. "I-I guess a minute wouldn't hurt," Aja said. "Yeah!" The boys said. They gang let the five of them be for the day.

When they came back later to check on them, they were all asleep in a pile. "Look at them. A real family," Turbo said. "Yup, a girl and her brothers. Even in the old times they were always together. They didn't act like Kings at all with her. They acted like a couple of teenagers. They had no parents so they aren't biologically related. Well the boys are but Aja isn't," Eva said. "What do you mean?" Jade asked. "This is what Aja said. But they found her as a little kid in a hole. She was like ten or eleven. The kings were only little boys when they found her but took care of her like a sister. They found her in the temple-like hole like she made hole in the ground and made pathways through it. The reasons, I don't know and Aja doesn't either," Eva said. "Then how did they know that they are related?" John asked. "Because they were all born in the same nest. Some eggs just took longer to hatch than others," Eva said. "Oh that makes sense," Vallen said. "Well let's leave them alone," Eva said and they all agreed. They first brought blankets in to cover them then left.
