[When the camera clicks on, it first pans over to what looks like a desolate wasteland. There are bodies and body parts strewn everywhere, craters marring the landscape, and the only thing breaking the erie silence was a strong breeze occasionally cutting across the land.

Suddenly, the camera shifts, giving an up close and personal look of someone's purple iris. It then pans back, revealing Haru making a skeptical face at the journal, as he tries to get it to work. He uses it so infrequently for making posts he still barely has an idea of how to use it properly. Thankfully, he takes notice that the thing seems to be working.]

Ah, cool! It's working! [He flashes a big grin at the camera as he puts the journal down on the ground.

He pauses for a moment, contemplating what exactly he's going to say now that he's got the chance to say it. It's really something he should have considered BEFORE turning on the journal, but, ah well. Spur of the moment ideas and all that. Finally, he opts to speak up.]

Hey, some of you guys out there use the Battle Dome pretty regularly, right? I was wonderin' if I could borrow some of your training simulations? I had one that was workin' out pretty well for me there for a while, I guess it's gettin' to be too easy for me now. That's probably a sign I need somethin' different now, right? [Another big, happy grin.] So you got any cool ideas?

[He ends the recording there, and sets up a few (poorly done) filters.]

[Filtered to Shuda | 30% unhackable]

Hey Shuda, I was wondering if you could give me some help with my training, too.

[Filtered to Vegeta | 30% unhackable]

Hey, Mr. Vegeta! I got the hang of that thing!

[Filtered to Elie | 30% unhackable]

Hey Elie, umm...

[he cuts off his sentence early on that last one.]

Is that so, Haru-kun? [He says, pressing his fist to the palm of his other hand. Very, very innocently, of course.]

I would be glad to show you a training simulation worthy of Team Gai!

Really? Awesome! [He doesn't know what Team Gai is, but whatever it is, if this training simulation is worthy of it, it must be good.]

I'm glad that you agree! Come to the Battle Dome in three hours. You may perform whatever warm-up exercises you deem necessary in the meantime. And then... you shall learn a new definition of 'challenge'!

You've got it! I'll see you in three hours then! [That just leaves the question of what he'll do for the next three hours...]

I was wondering if you were ever going to ask.

Excellent! Use your time wisely!

[And when the time comes, Lee will already be in the lobby of the Battle Dome, doing push-ups on the floor.]

[Why is he making this pathetic attempt at setting up a filter. He doesn't understand but whatever, he's not even going to try to fix it for him either.]

Really? I'll believe it when I see it.

Then come see. I'll show you.

Well, I was workin' on tryin' out some other stuff there for a while, but I figure I should really get back to my swordsmanship!

[Haru used his time--or at least some of it--to recuperate in the lounge. So he comes down holding a water bottle. Proper hydration is key.]

Hey Lee. You're already here?

You mean you haven't been practicing at all lately?

[HARU PLS.]

Do you really expect to keep your skills sharp without constant training?

[Hydration? Bah, Lee can worry about such petty things later. He could be heard counting in what seems to be the 3000s before he notices aru and springs to his feet.]

Of course I am! I was filled with youthful anticipation at the idea of subjecting you to this simulation. So I came here early to prepare it! I have been performing my warm-up exercises ever since.

This had better be good, Haru. Where are you.

[Subjecting? That almost sounds ominous...]

So what's the plan, then?

I told you, I was practicin' other skills! [God Shuda, do you know how hard it fucking is to learn how to shoot ki blasts on your own? You don't 'cause you don't know shit. Don't even have special techniques without your Dark Bring!]

I'm at the Battle Dome, of course! [Gosh, Vegeta, did you not listen to his post at all.]

The plan? I shall accompany you into the simulation that I have designed! And we shall see how you fare against the enemies within.

That isn't an excuse. If you did that every time you learned a new skill, all you'd accomplish would be forgetting the old ones.

[EXCUSE YOU in the future he will be able to take down Megiddo without a Dark Bring at all, so suck on that.]

[He's just making sure he's still at the Battle Dome-!]

Alright, fine. [And he just closes the journal, without saying when he'd be there, if he was actually going to show up, or anything.

But he does, since he was heading there anyway, walking in and looking for Haru so he can get this over with. He finds the chamber, and without knocking, will enter.]

Alright, sounds cool, dude. [he drops the water bottle on the ground next to the door.]

You ready, then?

I didn't forget anything, Shuda.

[Vegeta arrives just in time for Haru to end his current simulation.]

Cool, you made it!

I most certainly am! [He says as he winds up his arm and then makes his way towards the door.] As long as you yourself are ready... Let us proceed!

Then I'm sure you won't mind proving it to me in a sparring match.

I'm ready to go! [Fistpump! And onward they proceed into the chamber.]
