What The Luck!?

"So now we just twist a little more" Asher and Art were still practicing the move having trouble getting the force to translate from their legs to their fist.

"Think of it like stomping down on a spider then trying to push yourself away from it." Jane had thought of this since the move mirrored the last time she had seen a spider.

"What do bugs have anything to do with this?" Art was a little confused about this because he had never had a problem with a bug and preferred just to let them back outside.

"Pfft, Asher understands. Just look." Jane had figured out the move a while ago and was getting tired of watching the two boys mess up such a simple basic punch. They just needed to go with the basics and slightly change them.

"I wouldn't say it's like stepping on a bug and pushing it away. But it is definitely like stepping on the edge of a dollar and filing your hand out to catch your fall." His experiences from his previous life had been very different. Therefore, when he put Jane's theory in to motion the connection was different.

"Ugh, you make no sense either. This is annoying!" Art stopped down and put his full body force in to the punch. He moved almost exactly like the avatar in the game and the force of his punch had definitely improved.

"Why didn't you do that at first? We could already be trying out the next move." Jane was understandably irritated by Art who looked to have been able to use the slightly different basic move.

"Fine fine, lets learn this wheel kick." He rushed in to the next screen with the how to for the blue girl character. Her tutorial had a lot of big kicks but the best was the wheel kick.

When Art pushed play the girl in blue used her leg to bend their leg up and then spin on a single food releasing their heel in a sharp cutting motion. The momentum and the strength of the heel would definitely make this move deadly to any opponent in range.

"Not sure my leg moved like that...we should stretch first." Asher was already starting to stretch his calf muscles. Jane however was replaying the move and starting the basic stance.

"So i juts bend my knee like this…" Jane was talking herself through the move. " Then I use all my momentum and.." She swung her head with all her force. He heel narrowly missed Asher's head and proceeded toward the television stand.

"Stop, stop, stop!" Ashe yelled seeing that she was heading right for the television, In less than a second Jane was able to change the trajectory of her heel. Sadly it was now toward the glass of water on the coffee table.

The glass miraculously took flight and spun in the air. All three of them flinched waiting for the inevitable crash of water to soak them. Asher and Art closed their eyes just to what Jane let out a shriek.

'Oh no, Jane totally just broke moms glass.' Asher was fearing for Jane's safety as he peeked through his hands that covered his eyes. The sight revealed to him was the disheveled looking Jane dripping with water. She had given herself an unintentional bath. The glass lay on the carpet without a single drop inside, it had all landed on Jane's head.

"We should do this outside…" These were the only words to be said as she looked for a towel to dry off. Art was already in action heading toward the back yard. They could go back inside to look at the avatar again if they needed to. In the meantime they needed to get away from the valuables while attempting a new move.

Unknown to the three kids Asher's mother was preparing to head down stairs and yell at the three to go outside. 'Hmm that Jane has a good head on her shoulders. I will let it pass this time.' She decided to let her future daughter in law this one exception since she had realized her mistake. Having decided this Asher's mother sat back down and returned to the book, her ear was, as always, open for anything interesting.

"Alright so your kick looked pretty good. What did you do to get the force in your spin?" Asher wanted to jump right in to this new move. He had only learned a basic straight kick and thought that a flashy move like the wheel kick could really aid his combat prowess.

"Well I arched my foot a little and that made it easier to twist and flick out my foot." Jane tried it again while she spoke. The motion she used was clearly the catalyst to her improved twisting and momentum. However as she got her leg out she lost balance and her heel didn't hold any power. "Ah, stupid ground isn't flat." Jane tried to play it off like the ground was not flat and that made her mess up.

"Oh, right. It was the ground. Definitely had nothing to do with your balance." Art stuck his tongue out at Jane and tried to copy the kick himself. The thud that came from his butt hitting the ground caused a triumphant laughter to come from Jane.

"That my friend is known as Karma…" Asher shook his head at the two before attempting the wheel kick himself. He did what Jane had suggested and let his standing foot arch. When he felt he may fall backwards he went with the motion and flicked his bent leg out. The force that came from his transferred to his heel causing the force to all transfer to it.

He was surprised by this feeling but his body flowed smoothly and his heel slammed in to the grass causing a decent dent. "Whoah, bro how did you just do that first try?" Art stood back up excitedly. He had no idea how Asher had pulled it off so effortlessly.

"Don't try, just go with it. I let my foot kick out when I thought I was about to fallback and then then it just kinda happened." Asher tried a few more times finding that his theory was correct. He was able to perform the kick as long as he kicked out his leg at the right time.

Art and Jane easily followed him after ten more tries. They were by no means masters but having the muscle memory of how the kick should be performed would set them up for Monday's combat class.

"Alright alright, lets go try the last one!" Art had gained even more excitement. They were going to learn three new moves today that he was sure not many of their classmates would be learning. This would put them ahead in class and after they learned every move it would set them well ahead of their entire grade.

He pulled up the last avatar they planned to study. The avatar in black was moving their fists in speedy motions while changing their level with the bending of the knees. This gave the avatar an ability to strike vital points from multiple angles. "From what I can see the quick jab is not the important part of this move. It is the level change he uses in his footwork." Jane's deduction was supported by both of the boys.

"Then we will be learning then we will mix it in to the foot work coach Winters taught us. Hopefully she is OK with us changing it a little." Art felt he may be committing a taboo but figured that he needed branch out with his own techniques anyways so why not now?

"Let's do that first. We can add in the level changing to our foot work and use it to play tag. After that we can try to add in jabs and mix in the other moves we know. We need to be able to string them all together." Asher thought this was the best way to transition in to a proper flow for their combat techniques.

"Yes! We will need combos to get more points!" Art had started to fall in to video game world as he replayed and tested out the avatars moves. The edgy avatar had started to corrupt him. Asher and Jane dragged him back outside and forced him into their foot work game of tag.

The three started far away from each other finding their own rhythms at first. They had no idea how changing levels was going to influence their speed. Asher was finding that jis speed was much slower as he tried to bob up and down. His attempt to mimic a master boxer was funny to say the least. Art was trying his best but had only figured out how to lower his stance, unfortunately getting back up was the problem. Jane however was using her fastest speed to move through the yard, yet when she would try to change levels she would nearly stop moving completely. Their bodies could not cooperate with their minds. As a result they looked like they were trying to imitate chickens looking for worms in the ground.
