Azure's dream
It was a hot and sweaty summer day. Azure was sitting in the gymnasium, gazing at the bay.
Could she make it another round? - she thought. But her body grew tired, so hungry now.
She had been doing her usual morning routines of complex exercises for hours, and her belly was emptied. Time to head for breakfast! - she yelled hurriedly.
So there she went, skipping on every steps. She didn't make a new record that time, but she wouldn't mind. There was always rooms for improvement until the annual World's ninja warrior competition in July.
What were she going to eat, should she grab a quick snack from that newly opened Land of Lightning's food restaurant down the street?
A quick thought passed her mind as she opted for her favourite Ichiraku ramen's stall, but first Azure must leave her drenched suits and equipment behind.
So there she went, changing into her comfy clothing. She walked toward a familiar corner, turned right as the heaven's blessing in a form of noodles appeared before her.
Two bowls of pork ramen please! - Azure ordered. Unbeknown to her, Lord Hokage was enjoying his only day off with his son and daughter.
Your appetite is still large as always right? - Mr. Ichiraku commented. She worked hard for this, Azure smiled and nodded.
The noodles were soaked in this beautiful and milky broth. They were really thin, non-curly, and yellow. There were just a few ingredients: some mushrooms, scallions, red pickled ginger, and of course pork loin. Fell in love with this magnificent culinary beast, how could she not?
The fat was already concealing a little bit on top. It had such a tempting colour and creamy flavour that if Azure would sin, pray for it be attempting to reproduce with this ramen shop.
Eat well and grow stronger, she thought. For the pride of the Leaf resting on her shoulder, Azure devoured the bowls as if they were air and she were a dying astronaut.
She was a ninja with great skills. It was only natural for her to go on and become one of the best in the Gymnastic field.
Azure sure took her time! She even lost track. The food was so fantastic, she felt her body revitalized as if she had just been s*ed-fed by Sakura a healing flask.
So there she went, paying her bill and head back to her home to get ready for when the afternoon training began. Azure must rest well, so she turned her TV on. She watched it for a while then felt asleep, curling like a prawn.
The clock finally ticked. Azure woke up, ready to get fit.
She washed her face and combed her hair. Even though they would get messy again, she just did not care.
So there she went, running to the gym. Tis be her cardio, she breathed in! Azure became one with the jog's rhythm, As it were with her. With the Hokage's blessing by her side, she could even defeat demons like the Witcher.
If the gold medal was a crown jewel, Azure must surpass great titans before she could make it her own.
Our lovely girl stopped at the gym's front door. She came in with greater will power than before. Her gripped tightened with every molecule. Her arms as hard as machine tools!
So there she went, practicing and practicing! Refilled her bottle between every major repetitions, she would not even ask for help from anyone. Azure was determined to get plenty done.
Would her work pays off? She never asked. She had one goal and one goal only, for that she would outlast even Rock Lee. Her nimble foot work made moving around the pommel horse like a graceful dance. What a beauty! Azure was admired by every man.
Her landing was flawless, as perfected through many injuries. She always bound back with solace, learned much from her blistery.
She studied her history: knowing where she fell and the reasons, she overcame all, claimed victory through misery.
Would our girl achieve valedictory? We could only watch and cheer with our peers. But let me pop a beer to our Azure dear!
No matter what will happen, you will always be my hero. May you keep flying forward like an arrow! And may you find new motivation in temporal sorrow. We understand your hardship, truly known!
So there she went, packing up her bag as she headed out of the room. It had been one hell of a day. Azure felt like Brad Pitt's mummy raising from the long forgotten tomb.
Exhausted, her face's glittering with frosted sweat. Her braids freshly twisted, Azure wished she had not missed the sunset.
What a beautiful day.
What a wonderful girl.
What a joy she would bring to our village, let us cheer again for our pearl!
This is an attempt to retell Azure's hopes and dreams through these poem streams. May she reigns supreme among athletes from every team!
