'𝐵𝑜𝑜𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑔𝑔' The y/n thought as y/n was done with their food which left them with nothing to do. Macaque has left to go training in his little training area and he instructed Y/n to stay on the couch and find something interesting to do which was y/n reading a book but....well y/n grew bored of it. With nothing to do y/n looked around the whole room. Walking around and inspecting a few things but even that grew boring for the human child.

So as any child would Y/n wandered off deeper in the dojo looking for something interesting.

Looking through the hallways as they walked carefully,  being mindfull of their steps as to not make any floorboards creak which they failed at a few times but...they're just a child...so you cant really blame y/n. Y/n hoped to see something interesting.

𝑆𝑚𝑎𝑐𝑘..

𝐶𝑟𝑎𝑠ℎ...

𝑤𝑒𝑒....

Y/n poked their head in the room curious where the noise was coming from and why it was so loud in the first place.

There in the middle of the room was Macaque, fighting his clones with his black and purple staff.

'Woow..so cool.' Y/n's eyes sparkled with excitement as they saw the monkey fight. Macaque pulled some cool fighting moves here and there which made Y/n grin even wider. After Macaque was done fighting all of the clones he began to store his fighting gear that he used during the fight away. As this was happening Y/n tried sbeaking up closer to see that purple and black staff up close as it fascinated Y/n.

"Heh...you're gon' have to try harder then that if you want to sneak up on me bud-" The monkey grinned with his back still turned to Y/n. When those words left Macaque's mouth Y/n fell through the floor appearing in the monkey's grasp the next second.

"Wah-!" Y/n exclaimed out of shock as they were hanging upside down from the Macaroni's tail "Nooo put me dOoowwn." The y/n cried out annoyed a bit "Naaah-" Macaque grinned as Y/n protested further pulling on Macaque's tail which to his suprise was quite hurtful.

'𝑇ℎ𝑖𝑠 𝑘𝑖𝑑 ℎ𝑎𝑠 𝑠𝑜𝑚𝑒 𝑠𝑡𝑟𝑒𝑛𝑔𝑡ℎ...𝑑𝑎𝑚𝑛-' Macaque chuckled as he let go of Y/n making y/n fall on the ground with a thud.

"Heyyy-! That wasn't nice!" Y/n pouted with puffed out cheeks when they got off the ground. Now starring at Macaque who was chuckling at the sight in front of him.

"Well I'm not very nice, bud." Macaque said, still wearing that smirk of his, amused at this situation.

"W-Well what were you doing anyway-?" Y/n asked determined to touch that black and purple staff of Mac's "Eh, just training-" Macaque shrugged with a bored out tone "Cool-" Y/n said with such an amazament that Y/n's eyes were covered in stars "I wanna do that too-!" Y/n started jumping up and down making small fighting like moves.

Macaque chuckled at the kid's enthusiasm- "Nu-uh-!" -but he declined "Why not-?!" Y/n said saddened by Mac's response. Macaque just looked at y/n as if the answer wasn't clear enough " 'cause you're a kid-" Y/n looked straight into Macacques eyes "And-?"

The two were holding the eye contact for good few minutes, not speaking, not blinking it was hard to tell if even one of them was breathing. It seemed as though the two had a quiet conversation. Eventually after a few minutes Macaque groaned "Ughh...fineeee-!" He rolled his eyes in annoyance but on the inside he was smiling altough he would never admit it.

"Yaay!" Y/n clapped their hands in exidement "Come on teach me-!" Y/n said with a smile so big one would say that it's inhuman "Alright, alright-! Calm your jits down bud-" Mac hushed down the overly exided child.

Step....

"Straighten your back."

Step....

"Bring those fists a bit higher-!"

Step...

"Perfect- now- do it again-"

Mac and Y/n have been training for over two hours, taking many breaks ofcourse (Mac can't overwork the child). Y/n was getting better and better at keeping up his fighting posture Mac has even showed the kid how to do a powerful punch on the punching bag. Although it didn't do too much damage from the child it still left a small dent in it.

"Oof....I can't anymore....am tired-" Y/n exclaimed as they dropped on the ground, starring at the ceiling with tired eyes "Hm...I guess we can end the training session for today- after all three hours seems like too much time of training for a small kid lile you-" Mac shrugged as he sat down next to Y/n.

"Mhm...my legs hurt-" Macaque grinned patting Y/n's head "Ohoho- wait 'till the morning with that one bud-!" Y/n chuckled sadly knowing what Mac meant by that phrase.

Y/n got off of the ground "I'll go and lay down on the couch then..." Mac nodded "Uh-huh." He didnt really pay much attention as he was already cleaning the stuff from training off of the ground.
