Altan POV

*4 years later*

"Morning kiddo, are you excited about tonight?" Mama asked as I walked into the kitchen. 

"I'm a little nervous, papa said his shift was pretty painful." I said. 

"I don't want to scare you… but it just might. A tiger has over four hundred bones compared to our two hundred something." Mama said sipping their coffee. 

"Great… that's going to be fun." I huffed. 

"We'll be there with you kiddo, it'll be ok I promise." Mama said, smiling and I nodded. 

"I guess I better get going to the training grounds, hopefully, Skylar and papa go easy on me. Skylar had me lift two cars stacked on each other to test my basic strength." I said. 

"Wow, you're stronger than your papa already." Mama winked. 

"I thought papa started his training pretty late?" I asked. 

"I was trying to get you pumped up for training. For the past few weeks, you've been coming home practically crawling in than when you leave. It worries me you're working so hard. I wasn't there when your dad first started his training but if it's anything like what you're going through, I'm honestly glad I missed it or I may have broken down seeing him half dead." Mama said.

Well it only half worked because now I'm nervous as hell and dreading tonight.

"I'll have papa heal me after training. He usually does but I still end up feeling like I got hit by a train." I said and mama cringed.

"Well good luck kiddo." Mama said and I nodded. I wonder where everyone else is. I didn't see mommy Vince or dad Seth, Eric, or Nathan. 

Soon enough my questions were answered when all five of them were at the training grounds with Skylar. 

"What are you guys doing here?" I asked. 

"The kids are playing with the other pack kids so we came to watch your training." Dad Nathan said. Sometimes I forget the babies aren't exactly babies anymore, they're four years old now.  

I smiled and hugged them. "Thanks, guys." 

"Go stretch, it looks like Skylar and your papa are just about set up." Dad Eric said and I nodded. 

After I finished stretching I walked towards papa and Skylar.

"We don't exactly have an arena like New Moon does but we have a powerful wolf prince who can put a barrier around us so no one gets hurt." Papa said. 

"Why doesn't that make me feel any better?" I said and he just chuckled. I could be a danger to the pack and he's laughing. 

"Because you're a good person and care about people's safety." Papa said and I just sighed and we got started. 

We first practiced my endurance. I was able to pick up most vehicles so for today's test I had to pick up a military tank. How we got a tank is beyond me but I have a feeling that grandpa Sebastian called in a favor. 

"Fifty more overhead presses kiddo." Papa said and I could only imagine I was sweating like I just came out of a sauna and breathing heavier than I ever had before in my life. 

"Ok that was five hundred, well done kiddo." Papa said smiling at me. 

"Thanks, papa." I said and drank some water and Dr. Balwin checked me out.
