Akita's jaw dropped when he said the estimate, "7,000... miles...  That's too much!"  They all did get stronger in the last few months, and Akita was sure they could get their school far in the tournament, but 7,000 miles was excessive.  She believed in Master Roshi's training, especially since he was trained by one of the best himself, but she wasn't sure if the swim would do them too much good.  Then she heard Kiro's comment about the new Gis and shrugged, "I guess we'll just have to deal with it."  She ran to the nearest body of water when she heard Ally call out, "Wait!"

Ally had put her new Gi in a cloth bag.  She already owned an older Gi, but she would wear the new one to the tournament to look more unified with Kiro and Akita.  "Hold on!" she said and tossed a bag to both Akita and Kiro, "Put your Gis into the bag and keep it on your head.  Whatever you do, don't wet your Gi!"  Once her bag was secured, she dove into the water and led the two.
