Chapter 6 - Training? Piece of Cake (yeah right (part 2)
Same routine the next day. I got up to find Teddy standing over me, with the same smirk. I threw another pillow at his face and pushed him out of my tent. Bombo smiled when he saw me. I smiled at him and apologized for the tackling and choking and whatnot. Zick and Elena smiled and we slapped high fives. Lay however, had been acting quite hostile but I was too happy to care. Teddy lead me to the same field and we resumed training.
Another monster came out, this one in chains. Chumba Bagingi, the showoff monster, as explained by Zick. My training this time was to stop Chumba from destroying everything within fifteen minutes. I started my stance. I took deep breaths. Chumba was released from his chains. Let the games begin.
IT WAS HELL. Not only did he listen to me, he broke my favourite watch trying to make it disappear. (putting it under a handkerchief and smashing it.) I was furious. Suddenly I stood still. A funny voice came out of my mouth. "Stop monster, for I am a monster Tamer and you must obey me." Chumba stopped. I tried to experiment. "Give me back my watch." Chumba grabbed the remains and dumped them on my lap. "Now... tap dance while...balancing on a rolling pin and ... eat a cake at the same time."
I won't say anything else. All I'll say is that Chumba has great balance. Terrence and Teddy smiled at me and Zick gave me a thumbs up.
Later I was trying to learn how to control my powers. The only thing is, I seem to not have any. I tried shooting lasers from my hand but nothing. Teddy kept assuring me that my powers will come soon. I just hope it does.
I tried again later, in the middle of the night. Teddy was with me, looking after me. I tried.
Nothing.
I must be the worst Tamer ever.
And if I'm the worst Tamer ever...
How can I fight in a war?
