Become the best

Misery was taking Mac back out of the pack land once again!  It was for the best in so many ways.  It was bound to make Mac enjoy being with Misery all the more for one perk and as another, he wanted to keep Mac’s training individual.  If the other kids wanted Misery’s help then they’d have to learn to give him respect and work for him as well.  Misery wasn’t able to throw away those he disliked but he could choose which grew strongest by his aid.

This time he didn’t even make the boy carry anything so he could have more energy when they reached their location!  Soon enough Misery would be off spying and playing a good pack member elsewhere so he needed to work the boy hard now while he could.  He needed to teach the kid to have full faith in him, how to be extremely observant, and how to train himself while Misery was gone.

He'd stop once they reached the base of the falls, similar to where they’d seen the ghost last time.  Once the main lesson was over they could perhaps do some more roaming farther out.  “Alright Mac, today we are doing something a bit more basic.  Something I think you’ll enjoy.”   Misery smirked already knowing the kid would love it.  “We get to spar, see how good you are.”   Truth was Misery hadn’t focused too much on fighting, preferring to work his mind but this would be good for the boy.  “I’m not the best in the pack, at least in terms of fighting.  However the more wolves you spar with the better for learning to adjust to different styles.”

Misery gave a thin smile, “I want you to be the best Macabre.  Don’t let me down.”  He was letting the boy know he was counting in him, hopefully, that idea would sink in.  “Think you can?”
