The Multiversal Shadow

Asking To Fight

Y/n's POV :

"Ok bud, let's take a break" Macaque told me, I nodded went to take a breath from the training. I've been secretly training with Macaque for 2 weeks, accept for weekends or school holidays though. No one in school knows about this yet, not even my friends or parents. Well, that's the problem, sometimes I get to caught up in training I end up with a few wounds, I would sometimes go home covering those wounds and I think my parents are starting to get suspicions.

On the bright side though, everytime I go for training I head over to pigsys and I made friends with them. Mk, Pigsy, Mr. Tang and even a girl called Mei, but I still never told them that I'm from a different universe. That might take some time to tell them.

"Hey kiddo, you ok? Your starting to doze off..." Macaque asks me in a tiny bit concerned voice, this is kinda my first time seeing him like this. But I snapped out of my little thinking cloud and went back to earth the moment I heard his voice, "Hmm? Oh yea, I'm alright.... I'm just... Thinking of... Stuff..." I told him.

"Look, kid, I know we just met like 2 weeks ago but I can see that somethings bothering you, whats wrong?"

"I just... I don't know how do I tell my parent's... That.... I'm travelling universes, have shadowy powers that I don't even have yet... And.... That I'm fighting? I mean... My parents know that I need to learn about self defence... But, how do I tell them all of this? At once?"

I slowly get back on my cloud and back into the land of thoughts/ovethinking again. Until Macaque said something, "I know that this is hard, but, you don't have to do this alone, I can come with you and convince your parent's if you want?"

I thought hard, I mean, not having to do this alone lifts a big burden off my back already, but, am I sure of doing this? I thought for a bit more, and I thought 'why not? The worst thing that can happen is that they ban you from training'

I sighed and said "Why not?" Macaque understood and nodded along, "How about tomorrow I follow you in your shadows from lunch to the time your school ends? I'm sure your parents are going to pick you up then, you can tell them about this then" he suggested, "That is actually not a bad idea" I said.

So we agreed tomorrow after training Macaque just lounges around in the shadows until the time my parents come to pick me up, then I'll tell them about all the extra training and stuff

3.30 pm, the time that my parents pick me up from school. They told me that they would be 10-20 minutes late so we had plenty of time to wait for the classmates to leave so Macaque can come out of the shadows and to think of a plan.

So what we had planned was to just tell the truth and ask that if I can still train with Macaque in another universe.

As time began to tick, the more nervous I got. It almost got to the point where I had slight panic attacks because of over thinking it, but I managed to calm myself down.

The moment I saw my parents car arrive, I took a deep breath and told my parents to park the car and come in the school and that I needed to tell them something. They looked at me suspiciously but followed what I told them to do. I told them to take a seat at the canteen chairs and I took a deep breath and told them every thing. It started like:

"Mom, dad, I have something to tell you guys, remember when I would come back home with some wounds?" they nodded slowly,

"That's because.... I have been seeing someone, he has been training me to fight."

"What!? You could just tell us that you want to learn how to fight! Why do you wanna run off with some stranger?" my mom exclaimed.

"It's because.... Y'know what? I'll let him explain." I told them, and Macaque rose from the shadows. Surprising my parent's.

"I am The Six Eared Macaque, your daughter has told me much about you two. Your m/n and your d/n right?" he asked looking at their direction when he spoke.

"What do you want from our daughter?" my father asked cautiously.

"I'll start from the beginning." Macaque said, and started to explain that how he's from another universe and that I took his staff and how has his powers, he also told them how I travel universes and how's my training routines? Never knew I had one.

"So your ok with this y/n?" my mother asked. "yes, mom, I want to learn how to harness my powers and know how to fight." I told her.

"Alright, if your okay with this than we have to be too, it's not fair if we don't acknowledge your skills" my father said, my mother nodded along. With stars in my eyes, I nodded too.

At the end, everything was great. It all turned out great. Thanks mom and dad.
