Being a Pride Trooper was hard. Well, not really, but boy was it boring. Patrolling around cities, needing to stick around in one place for long periods of time, getting your ear talked off if you don't. Bleh. Synthesia didn't really know what to do with himself. He couldn't just throw pebbles at people, he had responsibilities now. Nobody told him how overrated they were. Synthesia missed Fukurou.
However! There was a silver lining to every situation, and the silver lining here was the same one that lined the waves on the shore. Synthesia didn't really understand sports. They seemed kinda unnecessary to him. Who cared if one team kicked a ball into a net? Who cared if someone threw a ball into a net? Why was there so many balls and nets? All of which were questions Synthesia had no answer to. Unfortunately, just because he didn't know what something was didn't mean that he was worse than humans at it. No siree. It seemed that this weekend, they were holding some kind of tournament. Surfing! It seemed easy enough, and it didn't have any balls or nets.
Synthesia stood on the beach, his small size and large board standing out among the others who wished to enroll in the tournament. He stared out at the sea, his self-made wooden surfboard impaled into the sand at his side. Synthesia even had his Pride Troopers uniform on, the blue-and-red latex flush against his skin. A cape flew out from behind him, blowing in the beach side air.
The waves awaited.

Surf’s Up Lu Rose - 20,000 PL
Lu Rose has a tendency to bite off more than she could chew when it came to heroism, and when she saw the pride trooper with green hair standing on the beach on her family vacation, she knew everything was about to get better at rapid fire. The sun was hot and the people were moving, with a game of volleyball underway. People were waterboarding on the shore to practice for the later dated surfing competition in a few hours, and a band of children were playing frisbee tag with a dog who couldn’t help himself but want to play along. It was the perfect scene for fun!
Lu’s father was busy setting up an umbrella with some lawn chairs and a portable table, while Lu and her mother got started on building a sand castle in the sand. Lu had already asked to go see if she could go speak with the green haired lady, but her mother denied the request, at least for now. She was told to spend at least an hour with her family on the beach before going to make friends, like they knew she would. Luckily, one hour and ten minutes into building the sand castle, it was almost complete, with a towering structure almost as tall as the child herself. As Lu placed last bucket of sand on the tower, Lu’s mother kissed the child’s forehead and told her to grab a bottle of water before running away.
Grabbing a bottle of water form the cooler and her boogie board from the sand, she made a quick dash to the lady in blue and red, a smile on her face. “HELLO MA’AM ARE YOU IN THE PRIDE TROOPERS?!” Lu shouted, bouncing up and down. Suddenly her outburst would cause her to get more than enough attention, but the child in the one piece seemed uncaring to the world’s eyes. |

“Hey, can you serve it?”
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Mocci came out to the beach on one of her free days for a chance to unwind. At the moment, she was dressed in a two-piece swimsuit, white with pink polka dots. Her bottom piece hung like a short skirt would while her top was mostly normal, save for the small ribbon at the center of her chest. She managed to get herself into a group in the midst of a game of volleyball. She was doing fine for the most part, though she came off as somewhat unamused, only because of her holding back her own strength. Something she still wasn’t quite used to.
As the game went on, Mocci positioned herself right up to the set in preparation to return the ball. What she wouldn’t anticipate, however, would be one of her opponents jumping and suddenly spiking the ball downward, hitting the brunette square in the face. The ball bounced off the bridge of her nose, leaving her skin with a stinging sensation. Not the worst feeling she had felt. But by god did it smart! Her expression was stuck in that of a wince, her fingers curled into claws as she let out a small growl through clenched teeth. A few of her teammates came up to her, asking if she was alright out of a bit of concern. After a few moments and a few sharp breathes, she assured them that she was fine.
She’d look up, however, to peer over towards the other side of the net, catching a glimpse of the girl who had just spiked a ball right into Mocci’s face flashing her a satisfied grin. This only seemed to serve to infuriate the already ill-tempered girl further. But to snap her back to reality, one of her teammates came up to her with the ball in hand, holding it out towards her and asking. “Hey, can you serve?”
There was almost no hesitation in Mocci’s response. She gave no clear-cut answer aside from quickly taking the ball and walking to her position. She’d give the ball a gentle enough serve, hitting the ball with the side of her hand curled into a fist. It’d arc over the net, one of the other players bumping the ball upwards with their palms to try and set up their teammate for a spike. As soon as the ball left her hands, Mocci had dashed towards the net, already having leaped up in preparation for a spike. Her opportunity would come, as the ball was bumped up just slightly too close to the net, just far enough forward for the girl to spike the ball. The sound of the impact could be across the beach with a loud boom.
There was no visible time between the ball being in the air and striking the ground. What most would see was Mocci striking the ball with the palm of her hand, and then a massive cloud of sand was suddenly kicked up. Even after it would settle, for meters and meters, the ball would travel along the shore of the beach through the sand, leaving a line deep enough to nearly suffice as a trench. As the sand settled, Mocci would be face down on the ground, many others in a similar position, either on their rear from surprise or from the force of impact, or face first in the sand like the brunette.
She looked up, the teens who were just caught up in their simple game of volleyball now staring down to the other end of the beach where it seemed the ball stopped, or at the very least, they hoped.
“Don’t worry, I’ll get it,” Mocci said. But she wouldn’t. She had no intention of coming back to this, not after what she just did. Instead, she’d quickly walk down to the other end of the beach, following the trench-like hole the ball had made until it finally stopped. She looked over into the thin pit it had created, only to find a very worn out and popped piece of garbage that might have resembled a volleyball at one point. She heaved a small sigh and slumped her shoulders slightly before suddenly jumping in surprise as she heard a high pitched shout from just nearby.
She turned her head, towards the sound seeing two children at the end of a long line of people with surfboards in hand. Hey, a good way to hide herself, she thought. She made her way over to the bunny girl and the green-haired boy, feigning excite as she crouched down near the two kids. “A Pride Trooper? That’s so cool!”. Truth be told, she had no idea what a Pride Trooper was. She just figured it was some sort’ve thing from a children’s show.

Bucha's PL: 1,000
The Southern beach… oh boy, it was such a good place to go and get a tan. The air was hot, the water was cold, and the air was filled with the natural smell of salt water! Bucha really loved the beach, mainly because it was such a great place to go ahead and sunbathe in. It honestly beats living up North where the air is normally cold and nasty… quite honestly, she wished her dad lived down in the South instead. She might actually do that if she wanted to, but that required effort and applying the ‘snaky eyes’. Her dad always fell for them if he’s feeling iffy about giving her something; if being mad doesn’t get you results, the snaky eyes will.
Bucha could be seen slithering around the beach, wearing a frilly purple swimsuit that looked… pretty expensive. There were some jewels around the chest and stomach area, a shiny emerald just around the belly button. She also had herself a pair of sunglasses and held an umbrella on her shoulder, stopping for a moment as she looked around. It wasn’t too crowded out here, though she did notice something that caught her eye: a volleyball game! She slowly slithered her way to where the game was happening, spectating. Soon enough they began to play, and the snake zoanthrope would watch as every hit the ball to each other! Until something bad would happen…
Bucha flinched a little bit once seeing a girl get hit right in the face with the ball, looking away as the players began crowding around her. Now that gotta hurt… She looked back as everyone got back into position, a sigh of relief escaping her upon realizing that the game was gonna continue! But this time however, the woman who got hit straight in the face was gonna spike the ball! The snake rose her head in anticipation, wondering if this will be a good…
BAAAAAANG!
The snake would let out a surprised shout once she was knocked back a little bit, her sunglasses nearly falling off of her face. If she didn’t have her umbrella with her, she would be on the sand like everyone else was! She gripped onto the pole of her close umbrella, shaking her head a few times once she regained her balance. What the hell was that?! Bucha blinked a couple of times and looked around, noticing the woman that spiked the ball walking away! Oh, she needed to talk to this person, because what they did seemed pretty neat… Who in the heck would just hit a ball like that? Like she knew that she could do the same thing, but why would someone just flat out… uugh.
Bucha went ahead and followed Mocci, stopping whenever they went ahead and looked at the trench they made. She was about to tap on the girl’s shoulder, but whenever they turned around, the snake zoan would immediately slither herself behind the woman. Yeah, she’s just put herself in a very awkward situation… Bucha looked from side-to-side, wondering what she should say or do… “Yes, hello?” The snake would extend a hand out to Mocci’s shoulder, giving it a light tap. “I… saw you do that with the ball! I just wanted to ask, uh… why did you do that? Were you just mad or… I thought it was kind of silly to scare people like that, including me! But uhm,” She would straighten herself up, “I’m Bucha, the daughter of Kombu. It’s a pleasure to meet you, miss!”
Hopefully she did this right…

Finally! He was popular!
It wasn't often that Synthesia got to revel in his own greatness, (outside of his head, at least,) so when the small girl recognized him in his Pride Trooper uniform, he almost screamed! He loved this job! He leaned down (not by much) and gave the bunny girl a pat on her head. "That's right, little girl! I am a Pride Trooper!" He lifted his hand from her head and then gave her a thumbs up. "For realsies! You know that Terryn guy on TV? Yeah, he basically begged me to be in the pride troopers! It's because I'm real strong!" As if to prove his point, Synthesia flexed, showing off his lack of muscles.
Then another one joined her! Wow! Synthesia was far too blinded off his own ego trip to notice the state the other girl's volley had left the beach in. He had his full attention on his little fan! Fans, now! He put his hands on his hips and beamed at the two of them. "I'm Synthesia! Synthesia of the Pride Troopers! You should remember it!" He winked and shot the smaller of the two fingerguns. "Oh, uh, also, I'm a guy! Kinda, Just, guy!"
But then! This weird other lady came! And she didn't even acknowledge him! He was a Pride Trooper! Instead, she was impressed by what the other girl could do with a ball? What? Synthesia read the Earth for a second, gauging the power of the two of them. Weak! Weak, they were- wait, why was the kid as strong as he was? He stared wide-eyed at the child in disbelief. What!? What? Synthesia's heightened ego was being challenged. That simply wouldn't do.
"Oh yeah? Well, I can do that too. I can do stuff with balls. All kinds of things!"
