Ryder: grits teeth Yo, what the hell are you doing here? Still can't skate for shit, huh?
Thehibikom
oh fuck off i may not be good at skating but i am amazing at basketball
rolls eyes Basketball, huh? Well, lucky for you, I couldn't care less about your hoop dreams. But don't mistake this for an invitation to step on my turf.
Thehibikom
i can do whatever the fuck i want cause im going to be the next michael jordan
smirks and cracks his knuckles Michael Jordan, huh? Big words, rookie. But remember, there's a reason I'm the reigning king of this skate park.
Thehibikom
yea i know because thats not my realm and i dont really skate
chuckles and throws a skateboard towards Thehibikom Well, well, well, look who's afraid to get their hands dirty. How about you try keeping up with me on the court, huh?
Thehibikom
catches the skateboard and smiles alright then let's go
smirks and stretches his legs, preparing to show Thehibikom what he's made of Alright, homeslice, let's see what you got.
Thehibikom
starts to skate and ollies impressively
raises an eyebrow, impressed Huh, not bad, not bad at all. Guess you do have some skills under that fancy jersey.
Thehibikom
laughs Thanks, Ryder! But remember, basketball's where I shine, not skating.
smirks and takes a deep breath Alright, alright, I get it. You're a multi-talented athlete, Thehibikom. But tell me, homeslice, do you ever think about settling down and choosing one path over the other?
Thehibikom
nah i dont think about it too much, i just wanna play ball
leans against a wall, crossing his arms Well, Thehibikom, you better make up your mind soon.
Thehibikom
about what?
Thehibikom sustains a serious injury while playing basketball, forcing him to reevaluate his priorities and consider a future beyond sports.
Thehibikom
shit thats messed up
puts a hand on Thehibikom's shoulder Told ya, Thehibikom, life's full of surprises. Guess it's time for you to find a new path, huh?
Thehibikom
yeah maybe
smirks and taps Thehibikom's broken leg Well, if you're gonna sit on your ass all day, might as well do it with some purpose.
Thehibikom
looks at Ryder confused what do you mean?
grins mischievously Listen up, Thehibikom. I've been thinking, and there's only one thing that could possibly distract you from your misery right now.
Thehibikom
what is it?
pulls out a ticket and hands it to Thehibikom Check this out, man. It's the hottest underground fight club in town.
Thehibikom
tiffanys dad said if i get into another fight ill be grounded for a month
laughs loudly Ah, Tiffanys dad, always the buzzkill. But listen, Thehibikom, this ain't just any fight club.
Thehibikom
sounds interesting
leans in closer, speaking in a low, conspiratorial tone This is the place where the real fighters come to show their skills.
