alyssa,you have been signed up.

alyssa's P.O.V.:i look the apparently pure black hedgehog over.

training already?

yes.

this is too easy.

i summon a panther made of shadows.

it envelops him,and i turn away,thinking that he is finished.

instead,my OWN shadow panther slams into me.

"what?"

dark is standing there,his hand pulsating with darkness.

"did i mention,that i am darkness given a solid form?"

to my surprise,wings burst out of his back,he grows talons,fangs,a forked tongue,a dragons tail, and scales.

"i am a dragonhog."

he runs towards me.

knowing that shadow is useless against him,i prepare to fight.

he doesn't look like he knows martial arts,so that is an advantage.

to my surprise,he avoids every punch and kick i can use,then hits me with a roundhouse kick so hard i am sent flying backwards.

however,he catches me and sets me down. i am surprised at that. he says to me:"this is not real combat,but do not think i will go easy on you. a real opponent wouldn't,and this is training against foes who know no emotion. only cold,hard,logic. and they will not hesitate to kill you,or me.

what they were made to do is kill us.

however,this is an advantage as well. they have no imagination.

now,here."

he tosses a heal unit to me.

you put up a good not good enough.

you will in time learn how to use the environment to your advantage.

now lets try again.

this time,i go all out.

turns out,we are evenly matched in this.

one hour later,we have completed the training.

END P.O.V.

now then,lets have a toast for our new member!

suddenly,metal dark walks in under the white flag of surrender.

hey,you don't think i would miss this party,do you?

you are surrendering?

yeah. i was made with your D.N.A.,remember?

good.

what about metal night?

night:sorry,but it would appear that metal night is still evil.

metal dark:metal night does not know i am here.
