I had fallen asleep not to long after our discussion. rambling for hours can make you sleepy. I had seeked out a mossy spot for myself and black liked to sleep up in trees. Trees. that reminds me of that damn bird that nearly pecked my eye out. I wonder if I couldl find my way back I could scare the damn thing see how it likes to be frightened. I was woken up by the sound of Black's voice and his constant nudging. I looked up and he was grining. I didn't like the grin one bit. "Let's go...it's time to train Midnight" He lifted me up by the arms and I shook my head to wake up a bit more. Something was flung at me and I jumped. There was a stick at my feet. Smooth and carved obviously and about twice my height. I picked it up and looked at Black. He had one as well. He tossed his cape and hat on the ground, as well as his other weapons. "Let's start with defense Mayo, see how well you can manage with out lessons. I attack and you try and block" He explained, spining the rod he was using freely in his hands. I gulped. Then straightened as he came at me with a downstrike. I parried it easily, but the force made me almost bend backwards. I forced him back to stand and he swung again. I didn't see it coming and I was flung to the ground. I spat out the dirt and looked up at him. He beckoned me and I sprang to my feet. He attacked again and I narrowly blocked it. His staff swung down from mine and I jumped away before he could pull another blow. He twirled it and it hit my head crudely. I stumbled back a few steps and looked at my hand to see smeared with blood. He raised his eyebrows, "You're going to have to do better than this to have a chance in the town...wanna break?" I looked up at him and gave a fanged grin of my own, "Bring it on"
