He was bored, so he did what he normally did when he was bored. Go outside and do parkour-type stuff. He wanted to get faster at climbing buildings, so he went slightly back, bouncing around on the balls of his feet, preparing to get a running start. He started running, but as he was running he noticed too late someone walking in his trajectory. He had built up too much momentum, but reacted as quickly, quickly vaulting over the person, twisting in midair. But he was too close to the wall of the building to perform the maneuver properly, his momentum causing him to continue to move, off of his feet. He quickly caught himself in a handstand, before pushing himself onto his feet.Ā
āYou good?ā He winced slightly as he wiped his hands on his pants, his hands a little bit scraped.
āI did it!ā the redhead announcing, bouncing up and down in excitement. āI got my nipples pierced! It hurt like a bitch and they were really sore for a while, but my tits look amazing! Do you want to see them?ā Ashley asked, not even waiting for an answer before she was opening her shirt, flashing the other person. āDonāt they look great?!ā
āFuck.ā His eyes widened, immediately looking away from her, looking up at the sky. He instinctively handed her his uniform jacket, to cover herself up. He wanted it to be clear that he had not seen nor wanted to see anything, by just continuing to stare up.
Panic set in as he quickly glanced around hoping that nobody had seen her, or had seen that he had accidentally seen her.Ā āDude, what the fuck, are you trying to get us in trouble?ā He asked, still looking up in fear that she hadnāt covered herself up yet.Ā āAre your tits away yet?āĀ
āDoesnāt that guy have a girlfriend,ā she asked as she was looking through her camera from the fourth floor and was just looking out the window people watching. āOr maybe they broke up? Do you know if that Senior Couple broke up yet?ā She asked to the person also in the room with her.
Before he could stop himself, he reached out, blocking the lens of the camera with his hands.Ā āWhoa, what the fuck are you doing? These people donāt need their personal lives outed.ā He was a bit touchy about this subject; he couldnāt have his secret outed.Ā
But his curiosity got the best of him, and he looked around quickly to see if there was anyone else around. When there wasnāt, he leaned down, and whispered.Ā āWhat senior couple?ā Perhaps he knew them.Ā

bio.
Ryderās home had always been a duffel bag.
When he was little, from what heās been told, his dad took him from his mom to take him on martial arts training trip. The important thing for both of his parents, was that little baby Ryder reclaim his title as a martial arts master: his fatherās master having been one of the most celebrated in Japan. He later learned that it was mostly what his father had pushed for, after finally reconnecting with his mom at the age of sixteen.Ā
And so, before he could even form sentences he was ripped from his motherās warm embrace.Ā
For most of his entire life he was convinced he never had a mother, only a faint memory of a warm embrace. For most of his entire life he was convinced he was poor.
He didnāt know where the money had come for them to travel the world, but heās pretty sure heās actually crossed a lot of borders illegally, thinking back on it. (They crossed from Japan to China by boat, and swam ten miles to the shore).
He and his father had a nomadic lifestyle, and from a young age Ryder was exposed to the art of gifting. His father was never really good at it, but he was good enough to often get them food and safe lodging.Ā
He didnāt know that it was weird, travelling across the world with his dad, never really settling for more than a few months in one place. But he didnāt mind it, it gave him time to better himself in all styles of martial arts. He has a certain affinity for more aerobatic martial arts, and since moving to the U.S. has improved in his agility by doing lots of parkour.Ā
He didnāt know it was weird till he was 15 and he and his father hopped on a plane to the United States, and suddenly dumped in his lap was the knowledge that he was getting a fiance. Before he had been born, his father and his fianceās father had agreed to engage their children, to ensure that the martial artsā legacy of their shared teacher would live on.Ā
Ryder was less than happy to say the least, as was his fiance. Then, he was dumped with the knowledge that his mother was alive and well, and that his family was pretty well off. If he wasnāt resentful of his pops, he definitely was now.
And so, to piss off his dad, he violently refused to the marriage, as did his fiance. But for the first time, Ryder had stability, a roof over his head, a mattress, a warm meal every night. And he canāt say that he regrets the engagement, because he doesnāt regret the home and mother he gained. Heās gotten past being mad at his father; he enjoys his martial arts too much. But, he knows that his father was in the wrong.
One of the things that he gained, that heās not too fond of is regular schooling. Being a nomad certainly meant regular schooling didnāt occur very often. But, it being his second year at the school, heās beginning to enjoy it (helps that heās a senior too) but just wished there were more martial arts-like sports.Ā Ā Ā
personality.
Ryder has all the makings of a cool person. Heās charming, handsome, and athletic. But thatās where the similarities end. Heās rather chill, and very adaptable, but heās always very eager to learn new exercises and stuff. Heās kinda annoying in the sense that heās very hyperactive, and sometimes when heās bored or running late, he kinda runs along the top of the lockers, or scales the buildings from the outside. Heās a bit sensitive, especially when people who know him point out his flaws, and heās very worried that heās not intelligent, but he also does not have the attention span to do the work.Ā
Heās referred to as The Martial Artist because he talks about martial arts a lot, and is one of the more athletic people.Ā
