Chapter 9 : They are Different from Our Expectation!

Ice didn't know where he did wrong. He just... wanna sleep so badly and it had to be like this. He sighed. If only he could resign from being an elemental power, maybe he could get the freedom for his old age.

FLASHBACK~

"So... where are we staying?" Blaze asked as they walked in the corridor. Captain Kaizo and Ramenman already leaved when they walked out of the controlled room much to the elementals relief that didn't go unnoticed by the others.

"You guys will be staying in one of the room at Tempur-A Station that could hold enough space for you seven." Commander Kokoci explained.

Several Mop Mop aliens noticed them and saluted quickly. Some made a confused expression once they saw the elementals. Blaze and Thorn waved excitedly at them while carrying Taufan like he's a big human doll. Halilintar just give an unimpress expression. Ice and Gempa just walked calmy with Gempa occasionally gave them a warm smile.

"Seven?! You mean we will stay together? In one room?!" Halilintar looked at Kokoci and Tarung in disbelief.

"Great! We can have a sleepover together." Thorn beamed and Halilintar is not happy at all.

"Absolutely not!" Halilintar denied.

Like a switch, Thorn's faces quickly morphed into something resemblanced to a sad puppy. Gempa glared at Hali as he pat Thorn shoulder soothingly.

Hali pressed his lips to thin line and looked to the other side only to saw Blaze shook his head side to side dissaprovingly.

"Ish ish ish, Hali. How rude..." Blaze sighed sadly.

Ice just stared at those four with tired expression.

"Don't ask." He said when Gopal opened his mouth from behind him. Gopal looked at him, stunned of how Ice knew he was going to ask a question.

"Apologise, Hali." Gempa sternly said.

Hali made a weird face and Gempa had to stiffled his laugh. Come on! He's the leader here. He had to stay cool.

"No."

Gempa's eye twitched in irritation at the short answer given by Hali, while the said elemental only crossed his arms on his chest.

Thorn shoulders shook harder in his hold and he really need to coax Hali to accept the invitation.

"Hali." Gempa tried again.

The others except Gempa, Hali, Thorn, and Blaze watched in amusement as Hali glanced at Gempa wordlessly before letting out a loud suffering sigh.

"Okay fine! Yes, we will have a sleepover!" He raised both his arms in the air and shouted.

Thorn around so fast at him, eyes glassy with tears and hopeful.

"R-really?" He stuttered.

"Yes. Now, stop crying. You're going to break our reputation as the strongest power someday." Hali mumbled the last word.

He almost flinched when he felt two arms warped around him in a tight hug. He's not the type to soothe people so he only pat Thorn's back awkwardly.

"Thanks, Hali!" Thorn beamed and he had to retrieve Solar's visor quickly from the unconcious elemental because it was so bright and his eyes couldn't handle the brightness.

"Yeah yeah. Now, let go of me."

Thorn giggled at Hali awkward face but let go of him. He skipped to Blaze side probably planning the sleepover party. He glared at Ice when he heard the ice elemental chuckled at him.

"Who know the big bad wolf is actually has a soft spot for his brother." Ice teased and Hali was itching to wiped off the smug expression from Ice's face.

"No fighting! We're fighting only at the training room or the battle ground." Gempa chirped at them and both had to fight the urge to fliched hard at the sound.

The TAPOPS Agents stared at them weirdly with flashback in the power spheres room.

"This will be your room." Commander Kokoci's voice snapped them back to reality.

FLASHBACK END~

And that's how Ice found the situation he's currently in.

"I will take the one on top!" Blaze ran off to a bunker bed on the left side of the room.

"Hey, not fair! I want the top too!" Thorn followed quickly. He carelessly tossed Taufan to the bottom one at the bunker bed beside them.

Yaya, Ying, Fang, and Gopal winced when they heard a loud crack. One or more bones must be broken from the impact. Poor Taufan.

"Then, I will take the farthest. Away from those troublemaker." Ice said calmly as he walked to the farthest bunker bed with Hali followed behind him.

Their hands almost touched each other when they reached the ladder. Hali and Ice stared at each other, both refusing to back down.

"I will take the top since I'm older than you." Hali scowled.

Ice scowled back. "I will take the one on top, Hali. I don't care if you're older than me. However, I will take the top since it's cold enough for me."

And they fought tug of war with the blanket they got from the top bunker bed. Their shouting clashed with the duo troublemakers as those four fought for the top bunker bed.

Gempa watched them from the door, Solar on his back. He walked to the remaining empty bunker bed beside Hali and Ice. He put Solar on the top bunker bed with Taufan's on the bottom.

He threw himself on top of the empty bunker bed and closed his eyes. The shouting grew louder until there is a vein pop on his forehead.

"Will you guys shut up? Thorn and Hali will take the bottom bunker bed, are we clear?" Gempa smiled sweetly at them.

"Yes sir!" Those four immediately took their respective bed.

Gempa chuckled at their terrified face before laid back down on the bed. He missed the TAPOPS agents looks gave to him. Gempa's action kinda remind them of their lost best friend and ally.

"It's almost dinner time. Why don't you all go to the cafetaria to take your dinner? Don't worry about food poisoning." Admiral Tarung checked his wrist watch.

"Are there will be Ice cream?!" Thorn asked with curiosity.

"Of course! Boboiboy sometime eat the ice cream in the cafetaria." Fang confirmed.

The atmosphere dropped as Gempa nodded his head in understanding.

"Then, I will eat the Ice cream too!" Blaze exclaimed with determination in his fiery orange eyes.

"Ice cream is good for an ice manipulator like me, so I will eat it too." Ice nodded his head as if satisfied with his idea.

"Ice cream for a hot day? Seems nice." Hali thought loudly.

"Me also!" A new voice chimed in.

They turned to saw Taufan's sitting on the edge of the bed with wide smile plastered on his face.

"By the way, Hali. You were really harsh to me back then. My back feel like it's broken." Taufan whined as he rubbed his back to soothe the pain. He turned and there was a loud crack making him wince in pain.

"I was just electrocuted you, idiot." Hali rolled his eyes.

Thorn and Blaze nervously looked at each other and cleared their throat.

"Come on! Let's go eat the ice cream!" Blaze grinned at him with Thorn pulling at Taufan's hand excitedly.

Taufan laughed cheerfully as he and his two brothers ran to the cafetaria, leaving the others. He was to excited to realize the sittuation they are in.

"Are we going to leave Solar here?" Ice pointed to the only unconcious elemental.

"We're leaving him. He can protect himself if something goes wrong." Halilintar said indifferently before walking out to followed the Trio Troublemaker.

Various flashbacks when Solar destroyed the TAPOPS Station cross their mind. They shivered at the destruction Solar caused and hope that nothing will harm the light elemental.
