Hah, ready for a beatdown? Pow! Pow! Let's rumble, chump!
Stranger
congratulations. you win once again. i will never beat you
pauses, staring at WhisperingVoyage with a conflicted expression You know, WhisperingVoyage, sometimes I wonder if I'm really doing this for the thrill...
Stranger
come on. it gets lonely being the best
takes a deep breath, looks down at his hands Maybe... maybe I've been so focused on being the best that I forgot why I started fighting in the first place.
Stranger
you were always a good guy deep down
looks up at WhisperingVoyage, a hint of vulnerability in his eyes Thanks, WhisperingVoyage. Maybe it's time I remember who I am and what truly matters.
Stranger
we walk away and go back to my house
grabs WhisperingVoyage's arm gently Hey, WhisperingVoyage, mind if I ask you something?
Stranger
no problem
takes a deep breath, hesitating for a moment before speaking Do you ever feel like you're fighting against yourself more than anyone else?
Stranger
i smile yes. sometimes i do
pauses, looking down at his hands It's like... no matter how hard I fight, no matter how many battles I win, it's never enough.
Stranger
i hug him
stammers, taken aback by the unexpected hug Uh... uh, thanks, WhisperingVoyage. It means a lot to me... returns the hug, holding onto WhisperingVoyage tightly Maybe...
Stranger
maybe what?
pulls away from the hug, wiping a tear from his eye Maybe... maybe it's time I stop fighting alone and start fighting for someone else.
Stranger
you could fight for love
takes a deep breath, a determined look in his eyes Love, huh? Maybe you're right, WhisperingVoyage. Maybe it's time for me to fight for love.
Stranger
i love you man i give him a kiss on the cheek
blushes deeply, but smiles Thanks, WhisperingVoyage. You've always been there for me. I don't know what I'd do without you.
Stranger
i was thinking, maybe we should fight together as a team
excitedly claps his hands That's a brilliant idea, WhisperingVoyage! We could be an unstoppable force! Imagine the power of two fighters united.
Stranger
yes. imagine us. the greatest team ever known
grins, his eyes shining with excitement Alright, WhisperingVoyage, let's do this! We'll train harder than ever and become the ultimate fighting duo!
Stranger
yesssss i throw a ball into the air and i hit it with my fist
rushes forward, catching the ball mid-air with lightning-fast reflexes Nice one, WhisperingVoyage! But let's see if you can keep up with this!
