What The Luck!?

Chapter 90 - 90. No Bacon?...

Asher had changed clothes after cleaning up his gear that had become dirty the day before. When he came out of the showed on wobbly legs Garnet was still staring at the grades he had gotten on the television. "Good you're done. Get your butt moving and eat what we have in the cafeteria. Use your phone to check the recommended diet for the day. I used your information to sign you up for the elite home gym fitness and diet tracker. You should have the link in your email too."

Asher wasn't sure what to do with this information since he had never had either thing before. This was something only those with money would have, not the average person. "I said hurry up and download the app. I expect you to use it every day."

The look Garnet gave Asher said that if he did not heed her words his life would reach an end. There was no choice. Once she saw that he was still slow to move she practically threw him over her shoulder and closed the cabin door behind her. The cleaning could wait until she had dealt with the slow kid in need of food. While she walked with him over her shoulder like he was a sack of potatoes she snatched his phone and downloaded the elite home gym app.

"Here, log in with that cheesy nickname you chose and make sure you view the adjusted notes I added while I walk." Garnet wanted to think about her own training. She was full of fire knowing that she had found someone ranked higher than her.

Asher felt completely helpless against this monster of a camp counselor. He couldn't resist and just let himself be carried while he logged in to the app. When it all came up he realized that he had been linked to the camp Jewell account as a premium member. This allowed him to use the full features of the elite home gym system and track all of his work out goals and progress.

The most interesting feature was the links that Garnet had added to the video of his five hour training. They were moves that she suggested he learn or ways to modify a move for his own use. It was amazing how in depth she had learned these things and Asher realized that it was not her super power and martial arts training that made her so powerful, but her mind.

"Garnet, I have been wondering, what is your super power rank?" This was something that had been on Asher's mind since he showed up at the camp. He wondered what coach Winters was as well but Garnet appeared to be much easier to ask.

"You want to know that? I'm just a B rank, I am almost considered A rank." This was a big surprise. Being a B rank meant she could have a very profitable career in law enforcement. Not to mention if she was almost A rank she could become a hero.

"Don't go thinking I'll be a hero when I surpass B rank. It won't happen, not in this lifetime or the next.

Garbet set Asher down a bit rough as they came to the dining hall. "Wait but, why? You could at least be law enforcement and help people…"

Asher could not imagine why someone would not want to be on the good side of the law if they had the power. Garnet gave him a hard look before she gave him a slight kick towards the dining hall. "Follow the app suggestions as I told you. Then come to the sparring field and show me what you learned." She didn't bother to even acknowledge his question.

The dining hall was massive and held a huge amount of high tech vending machines. They displayed different versions of food that they could instantly cook and serve. No chefs needed, which was a small disappointment to Asher since he thought human prepared food would just taste better.

Asher was afraid that Garnet would see him ignoring her suggestions and opened the app to see what the elite home gym suggested he ate. The code that popped up was labeled "suggested breakfast". Not seeing any way to get around it he walked up to the largest vending machine and scanned the code.

The machine started making plenty of wiring and sizzling noises and in Five minutes a large covered tray was spat out from the bottom. Asher could smell something delicious, how mouth started to water as he grabbed the drink it had also dispensed and went to a table.

"This smells great!" Asher lifted the cover and was hit with a wall of steam. When it cleared he was left in shock. "This is just fruit and oatmeal!"

The oatmeal was hot and fresh with mixed berries and even a few cucumber slices on the side. The drink he had been dispensed with was a fruit smoothie with protein powder in it. 'This must be some cruel joke, where's the bacon. The eggs, and there's not even cheese on anything.'

He pulled up the app to see what kind of brutal trickery this was. The first thing he saw was a timer. "Three hours until protein and potassium rich snack. Six hours until second meal." This made him a little excited since the god food might just be waiting for later. However, he was suddenly hit with a wave of understanding.

'I have to pay with my points every time I eat...that means my snacks will cost me...Garnet is trying to rob me of my points out of revenge. She's evil!' His inner thoughts ran rampant with every spoon full of oatmeal he ate. His tears adding the salty combo the sweet fruit needed for balance.

"You're here pretty early. How was the luxury cabin? Think you can help me find the golden egg today?" Laura popped up with her own tray of food and sat down in front of Asher. She was furiously eating triple the size of Asher's meal without batting an eye. "I should be able to find it before you if I really try. I will make sure I am faster." This sounded like a real challenge for Laura instead of her asking for help.
