"HIYA! IYA! HEE-YAH!" a starry Shoyru shouted as she beat up Punchbag Bob.
Shoyrettani threw a few more punches, then stepped down from the ring. She glanced
at her sister, Shoyraitti, who was looking darker than ever before. But then
again, that was probably because she was constantly running off to do Quests
for Jhudora so she could get those items Jhudora was talking about which I,
faerieneggs4u, kept taking.
Shoyrettani turned away from her sister and
ran over to Shoyrianta and her other two sisters, Shoyrittik and Shoyrittan.
They were playing on Shoyrettani's new computer, winning Neopoints on Codebreakers,
which they put onto Shoyrettani's Bank Card. Shoyraitti huffed and went to see
the Techo Master.
"How much longer until I graduate?" she demanded.
"A bit longer. Be patient, my student, for it
is a virtue," he replied.
"Not in my book. I'm taking a two-week vacation,
I have errands to run," Shoyraitti said, going out the door and flying away.
The Techo
Master sighed. Some students never learned.

"Ah, my loyal minion. Shoyraitti," said Jhudora. "I suppose you've come to
try another Quest? You failed your last one, and you are now back at Square
One. Get me my Broccoli! You have 15 minutes!"
Shoyraitti whisked off and came back within
five minutes with the Broccoli. Jhudora was not pleased.
"You took too long! However, you came back within
the time limit, so I guess you can have this Noxious Nectar."
"I'll take that," I said. Jhudora handed me
the Nectar disdainfully. Shoyraitti looked darker than ever before.
"You! Whadda ya think you're doin', skipping
school like that?" I demanded.
"You're not the boss of me," said Shoyraitti
as she flew away.
***
"Nine hundred ninety-eight! Nine hundred ninety-nine! One thousand!" counted
Shoyrianta as Shoyrettani performed one thousand one-armed push ups. Her Diamond
grew a bit bigger with each day of intense training. Lately, it had stopped,
as there was now no training left that was intense enough for Shoyrettani.
"Have they built that gravity room yet?" Shoyrettani
asked.
"Not yet. They're still blueprinting it," Grutinadi
informed her.
"If you want something done, you gotta do it
yourself then," Shoyrettani said, flexing her muscles. She went to the site
where the gravity room was going to be built especially for her and began building
it herself. Her sisters and friends looked at each other, clearly thinking that
she was crazy.
***
Shoyraitti flew all the way to the Haunted Woods, where she meet Balthazar.
He growled at her before her scent could register, and once it did, he wagged
his tail a bit and lead her into a large tree.
"How's the Chosen
One? Has she meet her match yet?" Balthazar asked.
"She lost against the Pant Devil and a few Neopets
because she was careless, but that's about it," Shoyraitti said. "But I came
here with a little problem of my own. My owner, you know her, she's been taking
all the stuff I've been getting from Jhudora and either using it for my sister,
the Chosen One, or selling it. Do you have any way to stop her?"
"Yeah. I do your Quests for you, and you get
me some goods," Balthazar said.
"What kind of goods?" asked Shoyraitti suspiciously.
"Faeries, Codestones, map pieces, Paint Brushes,
and your sister's head on a platter. Or at least some of her Diamonds," Balthazar
said.
"Deal."
***
"Shoyrettani? Aren't you going to go to bed? You haven't slept for weeks,"
Shoyrianta asked.
"I keep telling you, I don't need sleep anymore.
This Diamond keeps up my energy as long as I'm well-fed," Shoyrettani replied.
"Anyway, I'm almost done, all it needs is some rewiring and programming."
"Whatever," Shoyrianta said. Though, she couldn't
help noticing, the room did look almost finished. It was dome-shaped and smooth,
built of titanium-steel-neometal alloys. Shoyrettani moved quickly around the
dome, uncovering and recovering wires, then going inside pressing lots of buttons
with little beeps and tweaks. The she uncovered a window, closed the door, and
typed in "10 times normal gravity."
Immediately, she felt heavier. She actually
began straining to do push-ups with both arms. It worked!
Shoyrianta watched as Shoyrettani exercised
in her chamber. She saw Shoyrettani breaking a sweat for the first time ever.
Shoyrianta ran to get the others.
