#ReIgitnion: Maintenance Checks

[hyperforcereignition]

Running through the city on patrol was one of his favorite parts of it. Running across rooftops with reckless abandon, flipping through the air only to land on his feet…

It brought back some pleasant memories of watching videos on parkour late at night, texting his friend and planning to meet up somewhere to try out what they had seen.

With various degrees of success.

In reality, Chiro hadn't been that good at it. He fell a lot, even wound up injured a few times bad enough to require a hospital visit…

Or three. He honestly lost count. Between him and his friend, they had about six hospital visits for these antics under their belts.

Now, he was actually learning how to do such feats safely, mostly using the training room's simulator programs and then applying it to patrol like he was now.

His stomach did somersaults while he flung himself across a gap between two buildings.

The monkeys were nearby, always ever watchful of their young leader - just in case.

Today in particular though, they noticed… something was off.

Chiro was keeping up like usual… but they caught a glimpse of another boy his age trying to catch up to him… and when Chiro noticed him, he only smirked and started doing more complex tricks, prompting the other young man to do the same.

"Who is that?" Otto asked.

"I don't know but he's picking up the pace." Sparx answered.

The boy was an inch or two taller than Chiro with dark skin and wild deep blue hair. His eyes, an unnatural shade of violet that gleamed with mischief.

"Hey, Ichi!" The boy called, with a laugh. "You know, you can't outrun me forever!"

Chiro growled.

"I told you once, I told you a thousand times, stop calling me that! Only Mila's allowed to!"

"Kid, you know that guy?" Sparx remarked, looking back at him.

"Unfortunately." Chiro deadpanned before he laughed. "It's a story I'll tell… if he can catch up!"

Antauri stopped short, signaling the others to do the same.

"Pardon?" He raised an eyebrow.

Chiro stopped short before he noticed the boy catching up and made a break for it, shimmying up onto an air conditioning unit.

"Come on! You don't see me for awhile and NOW you can't catch up? For shame, Pizza Boy!"
