[Bite – 5]
”Bite!” he said again, jabbing the stick at the pup. The Houluh pup growled and bit down on the stick, snapping it where it was already weak. Obsidion grinned and gave him a treat, he knew this was going to go well, but it was hard for him to think of some things for the moment. Stretching out, he hoped that he was going to figure out what needed to happen, but for now, well, he just had to go with what was going on he supposed. The man patted Robin on the head and yawned, wishing they could go home and rest for a bit, but they had only just started and that was the end of it. He had to get the rest of this training finished, he knew, before they could do his show and he would grow up the rest of the way to be an adult. Smiling, he looked at Robin proudly, he’d done well so far.

[Bite – 6]
Even though things were going well so far, he knew that there was still a ways to go if he was going to learn how to bite things properly before his show. Sighing, he wondered if it was really worth it in the end, but of course it would be when all was said and done, he just needed to get it done. Obsidion jabbed a new stick at the Houluh and smiled, ”Bite!” Robin bit down on it gingerly, breaking the stick a bit as he bit down on it. The man wasn’t sure what to expect from him, but he was hoping for something a little better than this. They still had time though, they had nothing but time today, actually. The man was still pretty pleased with everything though, and he patted the pup on the head and gave him a treat. Even though the stick hadn’t broken through completely, at least it had broken a bit, right? Wasn’t that the beginning of something good?

[Bite – 7]
With everything going a little better, he knew it was only a matter of time before they could move on to something else. Obsidion eyed the pup and then jabbed a stick at him, ”Bite!” The Houluh pup bit down on the stick and snapped it in half, finally getting a good deal of the power behind it that he needed. Of course it was still going to take a little while for him to get this done, he had to do it on command at whatever he pointed at, or whatever was a threat, he knew, but for now this was good and they could build upon it after a little while. Giving the pup a treat and tousling his ears around, the man hoped this was helping him out when it came to the training instead of just making it harder and harder. He didn’t know why it would make it harder, but hey, he figured if things made it easier, then things would make it harder and he would have to figure it out later on.

[Bite – 8]
With everything working out well, the man wondered what else he could do to get him ready for all of this. Robin was happy he was doing well at least, but the man had other idea for him. He pointed to the log next to him and said it, ”Bite, Robin!” The Houluh pup looked at him skeptically and then cautiously bit at the log. Nothing much happened, a little scratch from his teeth, but that was good enough for now, at least he had bit the log and not something else. Robin was doing much better, and he knew it was going to be easier, at least a little bit, to train him the next couple of things before the show and all that. Obsidion handed over a treat and smiled, stroking Robin’s back as he ate, and he hoped that this training wouldn’t be in vain. Maybe he should enter him into a contest or something, that might be kind of cool, though he wasn’t sure what kind.

[Bite – 9]
Sure, things could go wrong, but he had a feeling they wouldn’t right now at least. Obsidion smiled and patted Robin on the head one last time before pointing to the log again, ”Bite!” Robin bit at the log and a good chunk of the bark came off in his mouth. He spat it out and made a face at the man, who only laughed at him before giving him another smaller treat. Things were going to be great right now, he knew, and he hoped that the rest of the training would go as smoothly, though there was always a chance it wouldn’t. Frowning a little, he shook his head and hoped that things wouldn’t go backwards or anything. Just one last time with biting the log and then they could move on to something new, but he wasn’t sure which move to work on next. He would figure it out soon though, he had enough faith in himself for that.

[Bite – 10]
One last time and then they could move on, Obsidion knew that and he figured it would go well for now. ”Bite, Robin!” he told the Houluh as he pointed at the log again. Robin bit down as hard as he could on the log and off came some bark as his teeth made indents into the log. He was pleased with himself and he knew the man was as well, beaming at him from the side of him. Giving a bark, he rubbed his head on the man’s hand for a moment before giving a little yawn and shaking his head. If this was any indication of how training was going to go from now on, they had much more to work on before they could go back home, which was certainly a shame when he thought of it. Oh well, it didn’t really matter to the pup right now, and he just hoped that he would work out well enough in the end of it all.

[Claw – 1]
He would try to teach him how to claw next, he supposed, it only made sense to do what was natural after all. Well, this wasn’t as natural to the pup as biting was, but still, he knew it wouldn’t be too terribly hard when it all came down to it. Stretching out first, the man took one of the pup’s paws and slid it against the log, making sure his claws caught on the bark that was left after the whole biting training. Robin tilted his head at the action and barked as he said, ”Claw, Robin.” This would go well, he knew, but he needed to make sure there was plenty of power behind it no matter what. Obsidion smiled and then gave the pup a treat for doing a good job, if only to show him how it was done and all that. All he knew was that he thought he was doing pretty well when it all came down to it, though he didn’t know if he was really doing it alright in the end.

[Claw – 2]
Robin wasn’t sure what to feel about this whole thing, it just felt weird to him, using his claws and raking them over the log. He was sure the man knew what he was doing of course, but that didn’t mean much in the end of it. Frowning a bit, he glanced over at the man who was smiling at him and then said it again, reaching for his paw, ”Robin, claw.” The pup barked and looked down at his paw as the man took it and scratched his claws over the log again. Things were interesting, he figured, but this still felt weird and he would definitely need some work to be comfortable with this when it all came down to it. He was used to chomping on things, all puppies were, but scratching them like this? He wasn’t sure if he liked that at all, and it bothered him quite a bit to think about at this point.

[Claw – 3]
The pup seemed to understand a little of what he was supposed to do, however, and the man said, ”Robin, claw!” Robin looked down at his paw and lightly scratched it against the log before opening his mouth, ready for a treat. Obsidion laughed a bit and tossed one to him, wondering if there was anything he wouldn’t do for food at this point. Robin was pretty single minded though, and he seemed like the sort who would nab food from others just so he could have it or something. That was odd, but whatever, he supposed as he patted Robin on the back as he ate the treat. It didn’t take long for the treat to disappear, and he hoped that things would proceed better going forward than they were now. It was hard to take such time to teach something brand new to an animal, he had found, but that was alright, he didn’t really have anything else to do.

[Claw – 4]
It was all well and good that he at least knew the command already, but Obsidion had to get some power behind it. He reached out for Robin’s paw again and wondered if this was really the right way to go about doing this. Giving a shrug, since he didn’t know of any other way, he raked Robin’s claws over the log, leaving little trails behind them. Robin licked at his claws a little and stared at the marks before sniffing at them, wondering if that was what was supposed to happen. It made sense, he supposed, but that wasn’t exactly what he was hoping for. Maybe he didn’t know what he was trying for at this point, but that was alright when he thought about it with a bark to remind the man of his treat. Obsidion chuckled a little and tossed him a treat, which was quickly eaten by the pup.

[Claw – 5]
He had to figure out how long this was going to take. It was already taking awhile, but he hoped it wouldn’t take longer than it took him to learn how to bite well. Obsidion rubbed the back of his head and he stretched out a little bit as he wondered what was going to happen in the future. Sure he was training up the pup pretty well, or so he thought at least, but what else could he really do and all that? Whatever, he would figure it out soon enough. ”Claw, Robin!” the man said, taking the pup’s paw and dragging it over the log, only a little harder this time. He gave a bit of a smile and wondered what was going through Robin’s head right now. It only made sense for him to be confused and curious, why was he going to need this anyway, he wondered? It wasn’t like he was going to go into the Pit or anything at least.

[Claw – 6]
There, he was getting a little better, but the man wasn’t sure they were finished yet. He still needed quite a bit more power behind the claw if he was going to use it right. Obsidion sighed a little and then pointed at the log again, ”Robin, claw!” The Houluh dragged his claws against the log and then looked over at him expectantly. The man frowned again and shook his head before giving him a smaller treat. That was all he got for now, he would get more whenever he did it with the correct amount of power, he figured. Looking out across the Park, he saw other people training with their animals, some big, some little, and he hoped that they weren’t quietly judging him or anything. That would be the worst, shouldn’t judge someone on how new they were to something of course. Of course that wasn’t what he tried to do and all that, so he hoped they weren’t as well.

[Claw – 7]
Everything was going well, however, he had to admit to that much. Robin barked at him, snapping him out of his daydream of growth and puppies, and Obsidion shook his head to get the cobwebs out of his head this time. He wondered what was going on, but for right now all he had to do was worry about the pup he had at the time, right? Giving a nod, he pointed at the log again, ”Claw.” Robin sniffed at it and then pulled his claws over the log a little harder this time, leaving some track marks behind them as they pulled across. Things would be better soon, they would be done with training after this and one more thing, and then they could do his show and he would be big finally. Not that he wasn’t big already, he figured, but he would get bigger, which was good for everyone involved in his growth, Obsidion figured with a grin.

It would be alright, they would get it figured out and all would be well. The man pointed at the log again, ”Claw, Robin.” The Houluh pup looked at the log for a moment and then reached out and clawed at it, a little harder than he had been doing but not quite enough for the man to be satisfied with it just yet. Still, he smiled, he’d done better than before and that was all he was really asking for right now, which was kind of weird at the same time. Obsidion fed him a treat and then rubbed the back of his own head, his short hair itched and he wondered what he would look like when it grew out a little bit. It didn’t matter much at the moment, and the man chuckled a little as he thought of it. What would Nadia say if she could hear his thoughts at the moment? It would probably surprise her that he was a little vain, but who knew at this point anyway?

[Claw – 9]
If only they were done already, he thought as he looked at the Houluh who beamed at him. He gave him a smile and patted him on the head before nodding and pointing at the log, they had to get this done soon, the day was starting to really slip away from them, ”Claw, Robin!” The Houluh tore through the bark with his claws and then barked happily when he licked at his paw a little. He was happy with what he was doing, and he hoped the man was as well. For whatever reason he didn’t know about, he really wanted to please him somehow, and if this was the way to do it, then he would, and that was that. All he could do was hope that things would work out in the future for them, and he again wondered what was in store for him soon. He would learn soon enough though.
