Hard Training Lesson

"Yea Finn, come on... you are very strong and fast, but you still have a lot to learn... Luckily for you, I'm all willing to teach you everything I know... and I want to show you some good techniques too..." - Tsuri said flirtatiously, as she grabbed Finn's arm, and dragged him out of the table, now realizing what could happen if he went to train with her. But as he started to get nervous, Finn noticed how his friends didn't think much about the sharkgirl's tone, and they didn't even move, or look at him, as they continued talking at the table. He lost all hopes, and accepted the fact that he had to train with Tsuri once again, since not even his girlfriend was going to get in the way.

"Bye Finn, hope you learn a lot!" - Zoey shouted to Finn, with a teasing, and enthusiastic smile, as she knew what could happen with him, and was actually expecting Tsuri to have fun with her boyfriend. And after seeing how his girlfriend wanted to make him nervous, and let him go with Tsuri, Finn just stayed quiet, as he walked with the sharkgirl to the lake, to presumably train more, but he really didn't know what she would do to him, specially now that they were completely alone at this part of the village.

"Alright, I know you must be thinking about a lot of things... but you can worry about them later, we are actually here to train... maybe later we can talk about your problems, or discuss what you think feel about your mission, okay?" - Tsuri said, as soon as they arrived at the lake, and while Finn was relieved to hear this, he was actually a bit confused, as to what he was supposed to do.

"Okay... but what are we going to do today?... I forgot what we did last time, so what types of exercises do we have to do?" - Finn asked, genuinely confused, as a lot had happened after the last time he trained with Tsuri. With all the tasks, sex, and trying to seduce Sayuri, he has forgot about most of his training, although he did remember his endurance test, which Tsuri also recalled fondly, and looking back at it, she was looking forward to doing that again.

"Of course, there is no way you forgot about what we did last time... but if you want to do it again, then you must run twenty laps around the lake, climb that steep hill over there, and chop some trees off... That should be everything for today, do you understand?" - Tsuri replied playfully, as she didn't want to focus on having fun right now, and instead, actually make Finn train, and do some work, to get his muscles bigger, and prepare him for his departure, that seemed closer than she expected.

"Uhh... fine..." - Finn replied, a bit nervous, as he wasn't sure about doing all of those exercises Tsuri told him, but since he wanted to clear his mind a little, and get stronger, he decided to do them. Even though they seemed very difficult, he was relieved, as it wasn't having sex with the sharkgirl, which was fun, but a little akward, or even scary, the last time he did it. So with the hopes of only training, and returning to talk to his friends soon, Finn began wit his first exercise, although, deep down, he knew things were not going to be so simple with Tsuri, or with any girl that he just "talked" to, it never was.

First, Finn had to run the 20 laps around the lake, and while this seemed easy at first, he soon found out that it was incredibly exhausting. The Autumnside Lake is usually a warm, cozy place to talk, but not a lot of breeze came in, not like the beach, so as Finn ran, and ran more, all around the lake, he started sweating real fast, and just in the first few laps, he was already feeling a bit tired. Tsuri only watched, as Finn struggled to run his laps around the lake, that wasn't even small, and as she noticed how he was sweating, she laughed a bit, since she enjoyed seeing him work hard, because that meant he was really pushing himself. And if that wasn't enough, Tsuri came up with a way to make Finn work harder, and sweat even more, by giving him limited time to finish all of his exercises.

"Come on Finn!! You can do this!! You just have to run a couple more laps and then you can climb the hill!! Hurry up though!! You only have an hour to do all of your exercises!!" - Tsuri shouted, with a mischievous grin, as she knew what Finn's reaction was going to be. He was confused for a moment, but not because the sharkgirl was unclear with her instructions, but because he didn't believe he could do all of this in under an hour, but after a few more laps, he felt capable of doing it. So after realizing Tsuri was being serious, even when she was laughing, Finn tried to focus, and get all of his exercises done, in the limited amount of time he had, even if his body wasn't able to, he was going to try, because that's what a good warrior would do.

After encouraging himself, and getting some motivation from Tsuri, Finn speed ran his last few laps, before taking a small break, where he drank some water, directly out of the lake, which was a bad idea, before immediately running to the steep hill, that he was now supposed to climb. It was one of the small hills behind the cabins at the lake, and while it wasn't too tall, its surface was very rocky, so it would be dangerous for him to climb. Finn didn't feel too confident about his rock climbing abilities, but after being reminded of the time he had left, he quickly jumped at the hill, latched on to one of the small rocks, and tried making his way up the hill.

"WOO!! There you go Finn!! Keep climbing!! You are almost at the top!!" - Tsuri shouted cheerfully at Finn, to encourage him even more, as he continued climbing the hill. He was only halfway up the formation, but after hearing Tsuri's words, Finn got a bit more energy, to do a few big jumps between rocks, and while they were very risky, he hopped his way to the top, and spent a good minute celebrating this small accomplishment. But after he reached the top, Finn really didn't know what he had to do, and even though he had plenty of time to complete his last exercise, he forgot which one it was, until Tsuri told him.

As Finn's last exercise was chopping trees, the sharkgirl threw an axe at him, that with her impressive strength, it went to the top of the hill, where Finn gracefully catched it, and immediately felt how heavy it was. After running, and climbing, his muscles were already tired, and even holding the axe was difficult for him, but since he knew he couldn't take a break, Finn found a tree near him, that was luckily on the hill he climbed, and as he prepared to chop it down, he felt how all of his energy left, as soon as he tried to swing the axe. He really didn't have the strength to chop the tree, and even when he tried, and gave it a few hits, Finn felt like it would be impossible for him to do so, and was very disappointed at himself, and at the fact that he barely chipped the skinny tree.

"You can do it Finn!! You have enough time... just make sure to channel your energy and strength, and give that big tree a good swing... that should chop it down!!" - Tsuri shouted again, trying to help Finn out, as she was very amused to see him exercise. And as he tried taking her suggestion in consideration, Finn relaxed his arms for a couple of minutes, before taking a deep breath, and grabbing the axe once again. With determination, and the last bit of strength, and energy he had, Finn swung the axe, at full speed, at the big, but thin tree, that after being hit with all of that power, it almost broke, and got Finn excited for a moment, before realizing he had to swing the axe again.

Now, completely exhausted, and with very little energy in his body, specially his arms, Finn almost lost his balance, and fell down the hill, as he gave the tree another hit, and with a second swing of the heavy axe, he managed to finally chop down the tree, and finish his training lesson for today, or so he thought. Tsuri immediately cheered for him, after she saw the tree fall, and as he took a moment to rest, while lying on the top of the hill, Finn felt very proud of himself, and was even impressed at his own skills, as he never thought he could have done this. He believed these exercises were unnecessary hard, but he had to expect that kind of difficulty in his training program, so Finn didn't mind, and still felt good, for finishing the lesson in just 52 minutes, although it took him a few more minutes to climb down that steep hill.

"Great job Finn... See, I knew you would be perfect to become a warrior... You are so strong, fast, and just so skillful at manly things... even at sex..." - Tsuri greeted Finn playfully, after he reached the bottom of the hill, and completely exhausted, smiled at the sharkgirl, since he was happy to see her so proud. In reality, Tsuri was supposed to do something much more difficult for him, and she even thought he wouldn't be able to complete these exercises, specially with the time limit, so she was very surprised, and kind of turned on, by the fact that Finn accomplished the seemingly impossible, as he loved strong guys.

"So anyways, congratulations on completing your lesson today... This was a real hard one, so I'm impressed... But now that we got that out of the way, we can talk about whatever you want... maybe you are not sure about taking this mission now that you know where we are taking you... or you hate us now... If that's the case, Erys could easily persuade you into coming with us, and you won't have to think more about it..." - Tsuri continued saying, after not getting a response from Finn, to start a conversation, that she had interrupted this morning. But now that he finished his training, and alll he wanted was to rest, Finn had to kindly turn down her offer, because he was really not in the best shape to talk, and even less move.

"No... I mean- it’s not that... I don't think I can say much about it... I don't know how to discuss this situation, you know?... It seems very complicated for me, and I don't know if I'm in the best state, or maybe the best moment to talk about it..." - Finn replied casually, after seeing how lighthearted Tsuri was being, and getting comfortable with her, as he believed that she could also talk to him, and teach him things, or solve some of his doubts, and problems, like the other monster girls did with him. But while Finn felt safe, from knowing Tsuri supported him, and was there to talk, he wasn't expecting her to react the way she did.

"Oh, I get it... You are exhausted from the training, that's completely fine, you don't need to worry about it... I'm actually glad that you don't want to discuss that topic with me..." - Tsuri said, with a friendly smile, but with a gradually suggestive voice, that caught Finn off guard, as he thought the sharkgirl was lying about the conversation, and she didn't actually want to talk with him. He was a bit suspicious of Tsuri, but he decided not to say anything, as the sharkgirl continued talking, and explaining something she had in mind.

"Because now that our training is over, there is something more than I need from you... It will be very special, and you would make me very happy if you decide to do a small favor for me..." - Tsuri continued saying, with the same playful, but slightly suggestive tone, that got Finn a bit confused, but very curious to know what she was planning.

"Yea?? What are you talking about?? What do you need me to do??" - Finn asked playfully, as he found Tsuri's new behavior odd, and wanted to find the reason of why she was acting like that. He was actually hoping he wouldn't do more exercises for today, because he knew his body wouldn't handle it, and from his past experiences, Finn had a good idea of what might happen, and was expecting something wild, or unusual, from Tsuri's response. And while he knew this could have something to do with sex, like every time he talked to girls, Finn was very surprised, and even really weirded out, by what the sharkgirl had to say...
