It’s a Wonderful Day for Parkour

[itmeanstruth]

The twins had returned to the Nexus after a brief visit to their world. It was that time of year again - time for the American Ninja Warrior qualifiers.

For anyone passing through the plaza this beautiful afternoon, the grin on Minoru’s face said it all. He’d beaten the Seattle course, clocked in a great time and scored a spot in the Finals! But this was no time to rest on laurels. There was still a lot to do before he set his sights on Mount Midoriyama again.

“If I’m going to make it all the way to Total Victory this time, I need all the practice I can get!” He exclaimed while hopping on top a picnic table. The plaza and the surrounding areas were full of obstacles to train on. “Anybody want to race? Let’s do it!”

[open for anyone who wants to do a little freerunning or parkour. Either with Minoru or with each other, threadjacking here is fine by me.]

He sprinted past the fountain. Sure, it would have been faster to run alongside that railing on the ground, but it wouldn’t be nearly as much fun. And he couldn’t think of an American Ninja Warrior course that didn’t have at least a couple balance obstacles.

So, he hopped up onto the railing where it met the stairs and began shuffling after her.

He had extremely good balance thanks to years and years of this kind of practice, so he could move a little quicker than Tielle might be expecting.

It took her a moment, but as soon as she noticed him gaining on her she leapt off the railing, grabbing and pulling herself up on to a balcony before hopping up onto the rooftops.

"You're not bad, I'll give you that much. Granted, I do have a bit of an advantage."

She gave him a smirk, leaning against a nearby chimney as she took another sip from her stainless steel flask.

Minoru smiled at both the compliment and the continued challenge.

Unlike with the makeshift zipline, he didn’t hesitate to jump for the balcony. He grabbed the rails and climbed up, over, and onto the rooftop where Tielle was waiting.

“You’re great at this! I’m having a blast trying to keep up!” He grinned.
