Natalie: Holy shit! I guess she did bow alright.

Alexis looks proud.

Alexis: Our daughters are at the top.

Jabberwocky Mon Mar 05, 2012 10:45 pm

Connor:"If you get deducted grounding time for this..."

Cruel Britannia Mon Mar 05, 2012 10:46 pm

Alex chuckles.

Alex: Why do I get the feeling this is going to lead to arguments at home?

Pockets Mon Mar 05, 2012 10:49 pm

Natalie: I doubt it.

Alexis: We may have to go out on a date just to save our sanity.

Cruel Britannia Mon Mar 05, 2012 10:53 pm

Alex: I think we're already well past preserving our sanity.

Jabberwocky Mon Mar 05, 2012 10:53 pm

Connor:"Well if it does...I'm entering the next tournament."

Pockets Mon Mar 05, 2012 11:03 pm

Alexis: You're right... we were probably crazy from the moment we brought home four babies at once.

Natalie: Oh, I'd love to see you out there. Think your parkour can measure up?

Jabberwocky Mon Mar 05, 2012 11:09 pm

Connor:"Hmm you mean to me? Well, I'm used to having walls and small places to run in high places..so the mat might feel a little under-welling at first.."

Cruel Britannia Mon Mar 05, 2012 11:12 pm

Alex: Four babies that are now four teenagers.....

Pockets Mon Mar 05, 2012 11:12 pm

Natalie: Yeah, well, you can't run and hide when you're out there.

Alexis: And any sanity that was left....

Cruel Britannia Mon Mar 05, 2012 11:18 pm

Alex: Meh...... like we were ever all that sane to begin with.

Jabberwocky Mon Mar 05, 2012 11:19 pm

Connor:"Hide?...I'm trying to decide if you are being a smartass or not..."

The tournament continues, with Alexis winning the Adult Female Full Contact Championship, Amanda winning the Adult Female breaking Championship and Julian winning the Teenage Weapons Kata Championship. Micah St. Clair is honored as the Kung Fu Teacher of the Year and is given 'Grandmaster' status. Now, the Teenage Full Contact Championship is about to be decided. Elizabeth is warming up with the rest of her team. She looks to Natalie, who is done for the day....

Elizabeth: I can't believe they said YOU won the Open Hand Kata championships....

Pockets Mon Mar 05, 2012 11:24 pm

Natalie is toweling off her sweat.

Natalie: I knew Uncle Micah saw how good I had gotten. Oh, Connor thinks he can take us on at the mat

Jabberwocky Mon Mar 05, 2012 11:27 pm

Connor:"Wait what? I never said..."

Cryonix Mon Mar 05, 2012 11:28 pm

Elizabeth: You honestly think....that all the judging came down to Uncle thinking you improved? I love you little sis...but God your delusional. And Connor thinks he can take us? ....Isn't his chosen sport acting like a runaway animal?

Jabberwocky Mon Mar 05, 2012 11:37 pm

Connor:"That's cute, come up with that analogy yourself sis?"

Pockets Mon Mar 05, 2012 11:38 pm

Natalie: Well, of course it did. No one else would be able to see all the little nuances he taught me.

Cryonix Mon Mar 05, 2012 11:41 pm

Elizabeth: Well, of course, dear brother. It came from the same place that the 'sloppy seconds' comment came from...

She smirks at Natalie...

Elizabeth: Well...either way, congrats sis.

Pockets Mon Mar 05, 2012 11:44 pm

Natalie laughs.

Natalie: Thanks sis. I told you I'd even the score.

Alexis walks over.

Alexis: I see you decided to come out of hiding Connor, welcome back. Have any of you seen Nicholas?

Jabberwocky Mon Mar 05, 2012 11:47 pm

Connor looks at Elizabeth

Connor:"How the hell did you find out?"

he glances at his mom

Connor:"Uh yeah....and he's probably fighting a wall somewhere

Pockets Mon Mar 05, 2012 11:48 pm

Natalie: I told her.

Alexis: Connor... be nice. Where did you see him?

Jabberwocky Mon Mar 05, 2012 11:49 pm

Connor stares at Natalie

Connor:"Well thank you very much."

he turns to Alexis
Connor:"Didn't see him."

Pockets Mon Mar 05, 2012 11:54 pm

Natalie: What? You knew she was going to find out anyway.

Alexis: Oh... well... never mind then....

She looks around worriedly.

Meanwhile....Nicholas is sitting in the food court, watching the tournament on television while finally getting some much needed food and drink. He finds a quiet center table and sets his tray down, and pulls out his much often read book, "CBCA Detailed Fighting Systems". He digs into his food and his huge drink as his trying to study the movements. As he's doing this....a few of the teenage competitors from the tournament seem to notice him as they put their food down at another table. Whispers are exchanged and one or two of them walk over to Nicholas...

Teen 1: Cramming for the Full Contact?

Nicholas: Oh....no. I'm not in the tournament. I'm just here to support my sisters.

Teen 2: Oh? Who are they?

Nicholas: Elizabeth and Natalie Edwards.

Teen 2: Oh....those two.

Nicholas: What do you mean....those two?

Teen 1: They just seem to win every tournament they're in...must be easy when they have 2 judges in their back pockets.

Nicholas stands up....slowly...

Nicholas: That is my Uncle...and my MOTHER you are talking about. You will not do that again.
