Heibai's POV:
I have that Deja vu feeling like when i fight against Alfa. I think with that big sword, Jomm can't be as fast as i do. so i run up to start the fight. But to my supprise, Jomm is aiming for my right arm right the moment i try to make a hit. So i spin my body and let the his sword and mine hit each other. My hands are shaking because of the weight of that big giant sword. Suddenly, it opens up and release a lot of air, fling my sword away and try to slice my head. I dodge and jump back to make distance, he follow up right away, ready to pierce my chest. I jump up, land on his sword and kick him in the face, and jump up again to catch my sword whie Jomm is stunned and backing off. And just waiting for that, i aim for his neck and dash toward him. he raise his sword up and release the air again but this time, it aim for my face. i coudn't see anything. he jump up and use the side of his sword to smask my back. I spin again, just barely enough to block his attack, but, he kicked me on the head. I flinched and almost faint, but still some how landed fine and go up to give him a punch in te face. He punch me in the belly and this time i fainted

Jomm's POV: 
This guy pulled up a pretty good fight, but he isn't trong enough to beat me
Hyun: "is he dead?"
Jomm: "Seriously dude, you gotta stop asking if someone died after they fought me or Alfa."
Hyun: "so he is not dead?"
Jomm: "You know what, he is not, let's just take him to the medical center, shall we?"

I sigh while talking (this is Jomm's special talent that nobody else in the Dojo can do *wink wink)
and take Heibai to the medical center. There, he should be taken care of and wake up soon

I drag Heibai to the Medical center. Seeing Pax at the lobby, i think she just finish a battle. I call her and we have a little chat before we take Heibai to the recover room. It went like this
"Hey! Pax! Over here!"
Pax: "Oh, hi Jomm..." she look at Heibai on the ground, sigh and say "You gotta stop smashing new gladiator and drag them here like this"
"I don't see a problem, after all, they are all fainted and can't even argue about it"
Pax: "i'm too tired because of this happening every single time. Just help me take him to a recevery room.
"Alright, let's go"
Pax take Heibai's arm and I got the legs, we carry him in a recovery room
Pax: "So... How is this guy"
"Well, he got an approval from Alfa, but I want to investigate him a little bit, and I gotta admit, this guy is somewhat stronger than Shura from Zetabrand when he is beeing trained by Tention"
Pax: *shocked "That explain it, and even the letter Hyun gave me before you came"
"Oh?" I got interested "What does the letter say?"
Pax: "He wrote "I spot a pretty good guy in combat, he is a versatile one, but he haven't got much fights, would you mind beeing his friend and help him get some battle experiences?", I'm pretty nervous about it until you said that he got approved by Alfa. I could help him, but I might need your help too, Jomm."
"I beat him up like this, so I might gotta do something to pay for the injuries"
Pax: "What the?!" She point at Heibai's long sword slowly melting to a puddle and flow back to Heibai's pocket

Jinnu's POV
"Well, he can't just beat the leader of clan SOLDIER when he literally just get in the dojo"
That was my thought when Jomm grab Hei and pull him to a hospital. (That was what I think) But instead, Jomm go deeper into the Dojo. The previous times, the defeated fighter always go to the hospital in the city, why is he pulling Hei in the Dojo. There's a whole building in the Dojo that has the sign "Dojo Medical Center". I have never see this building before. And Jomm call out to a girl, she looks young, wearing a battle boot and having the stand that looks like Oxob. Apparently, her name is Pax, she is a young Gladiator.According to her, Jomm took a lot of new gladiator here like this (I won't even question it). When they took Hei into a recovery room, I turned back into my normal form and flow back to Hei's pocket in front of Pax and Jomm's eyes, I gave Hei a beat in the chest and he wakes up

Heibai's POV:
I feel severely pain when I wakes up, I grab my chest and breath heavily. Jomm sit there with a girl, looking at me full of sweat and wide open eyes. The girl speak first
???: "Are you alright? What happened to you? Did Jomm made that?"
Jomm: "c'mon, I punched him in the belly, and he is holding his chest."
???: "SERIOUSLY, JOMM, GET SOM..."
"It wasn't him, it's just my health problem, don't worry."
???: "right... Sorry for yelling in front of your face, my name is Pax, a gladiator."
"My name's Heibai, nice togot meat you, Pax"
Pax: "So what waswe your sword made of? How did you suddenly wakes up right after it flow in your pocket?
"Oh, this?" I took Jinnu and shape him into the exact long sword "It's a friend of mine, he can shape into different weapon by my will"
Jomm: "That's cool. I think I gotta go now, call me whenever you need anything!"
And he left with FREAKING speed
Pax: "don't mind him, he is always like that, but he is not a bad one. Right, do you think you need to stay here for a few days?"
"I don't really think I ne..." my asthma suddenly appear, stopping me from finishing the sentence
Pax: "yeah I think you gonna need to stay, I'll call a medical care employee."
*Hyun walks in
Pax: "Hyun? What are you doing here?"
Hyun: "Well, I'm here to give you good news, here's you RHG card, Heibai. Congratulation!" He talk with a slightly bigger smile than before.
"Hold on, I'm a Gladiator now?!"
Pax and Hyun: "yes, you have your RHG card ,So you are a Gladiator".
I scream internally in joy , now I can start the second step of the job that Jinnu need me for which I don't know yet
