Just a warm up

Iron Mouth was really exhausted although it was not even midnight. Training at night was getting too much difficult , because it was stealing hours of sleep that his body was crying for after a entire week sleeping just a little.
Training was very simple and probably useless, but Fausto felt that such hours spent losing energy could gain results. basically the training was some push ups and squat to strengthen the body, his thin body didn't help too much . his arms were weak .
but his low weight helped a lot at the time he need to rely on agility.
he always practiced some moves that Sam had taught to him , nothing complicated. some kicks and some ways to block the blows.
Fausto was not very accustomed to fighting and he had to think before executing any move, and a second is too long in a real fight, when he left his instinct free the first move is always to bite the opponent, and because their teeth are always impregnated with corrosive saliva the resulting wound is really ugly and painful.The training was simple, yet allowed Iron Mouth to have more options in a fight, other than using his mutation as a weapon.
his priorities in front of a unexpected attack or for a counter attack always was to show his teeth, but if he wanted to avoid more deaths he should replace his first choice Bite for Block or Sweep the legs ... fighting on the side of justice was more complicated than it appeared, you cant kill even a bad person. Is this justice? But nobody said anything about breaking some bones to immobilize the bad boy before he can escape. The police would be responsible for him in the end , and if the police release the thief again the broken bones would prevent him from continuing with his bad life, at least for a while.

Usually during the day Fausto visited the luxury hotel where his new friends were .apparently both lived in separate rooms at the same hotel , neither said anything about this . the meetings were always in the Cielle^s room.
The voice teacher's first visits were very boring for him, he just taught him some breathing techniques and modulation of voice, but Cielle was very excited because this was the first step to convert him into her ¨little singer ¨ like he used to be called for Cielle in a affectionately way .
they seemed like real siblings, both had similar physical characteristics , specially the colour of the eyes and hair .and Cielle helped Fausto in everything she could, the age difference made it seem like a relationship between older sister and younger brother . Takumi keep his mouth closed but he was quite jealous with the attitude she took with Fausto . They give Fausto too much attention, but partly it was logical. it was only to fulfill the dream of a revolutionary band. anyway Takumi didn't wanted to do anything special to earn some attention, he just watched in silence and sighs every time she said ¨ little singer¨.
Things became rather more interesting when Takumi and Cielle joined the class the following week, the voice teacher that had been hired by Cielle from France only to train Fausto^s voice. he didn't liked all the attention very much because he felt himself under a great pressure,¨ I have to succeed ¨ Fausto whispered to himself every morning when he wake up . he was worried about meeting the expectations placed on him.
The following classes change, and with the basic knowledge for proper breathing and good modulation of voice there is nothing more to do that sing . and that was what they did.they sang a lot of different songs, from ballads to rock songs or punks. Cielle was very good for soft songs, his voice sounded very beautiful, relaxing and hypnotic at the same time. but that make you concentrate more in the melody than the lyric.
Takumi wasn't very good with slow songs, he always rush ahead of the music and ended long before the music. Despite his quiet appearance he had a great ability to sing in the rampant and uncontrolled speed of typical rock songs , he seemed to change into some one else when he took the microphone and sounded an issue of heavy rock, their movements became more fast and his voice lighten between the notes of music.
Fausto Martense, the incredible Iron Mouth enjoyed the karaoke despite the fact the simple task of remember the correct breathing and intonation in different songs was a little complicated for him . very often the nerves betrayed him and ended forgetting the lyrics.
¨ I wasn't born to be a singer ¨ he said disappointed by the lack of memory or when his voice failed in the middle of a sentence.
but he always returned to try when he received support from Cielle and Takumi. but deep inside Fasto felt very disappointed with each of his failures. ¨ they really are expecting too much from me.¨
