"I'm not the strongest, or most reliable I guess…" She whispered.

"Then when the others were fighting off enemies all I could do was dodge…" She bit her lip.

"Those moments haunt me…" She whispered.

"Big sis…" Kari whimpered.

Kari stared in awe, then gave a hard nod.

"I wonder how we can become any stronger…" Tammy questioned aloud.

"R-Rick!" Tammy cried.

Rick and Maru quickly turned around.

"Oh!" He exclaimed.

"'Sup you two?" He smiled.

"K-Kari and I were just talking and we…" She balled her fists.

"WE WANT TO BECOME STRONG IN OUR OWN WAY!" She exclaimed.

"A-ah…" She whimpered.

As Rick turned away, Kari grabbed his sleeve.

"I think what big sis means is that we want you to help us!" She pleaded.

Rick looked at her, then turned to Maru.

"What do you think kiddo?" He asked.

Maru looked at him confused.

Rick chuckled as he knelt, whispering into Maru's ear.

Maru looked at him for a moment, then whispered a response.

"Okay, the consensus is in!" Rick exclaimed.

"We'll be more than happy to help you two out." He smiled.

Tammy and Kari beamed.

"Really!?" Tammy exclaimed.

"Big bro you're the best!" Kari cried, hugging Rick.

"Oi, oi, relax you two!" He chuckled.

"I promise you won't be saying that after my training." He winked with a devilish grin.

"Uh oh…" Maru whispered.

"Ah…" Tammy and Kari turned to each other nervously.
