Training can be fun by Frank-A-Lanka on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

Connor let out a sigh as he walked down the stairs into the cellar. He pulled of his robes and undershirt, hanging them on the practice dummy in the middle of the room. He clasped his hands in front of him and stretched. It had been a while since he actually trained. Usually, his duties in Boston and New York or hunting in the frontier would keep him in top shape, but he had not been busy lately and he felt restless.

He squatted down and got into a pushup position, remembering when Achilles would be standing nearby and watching him as he trained.

He began to do his 100 pushups. His arms finally began to burn around 50 and he paused, just holding the position for a few moments. He remembered when Achilles would have added some weight by putting a sack of rocks on his back for the remaining pushups.

He let out a surprised 'oof' when a weight actually did land on his back.

"Good morning Raké:ni!"

Connor glanced over his shoulder. Rebekah was grinning broadly, straddling his waist. She kicked her legs a little as she leaned forward, wrapping her arms around his neck.

Connor smirked and did a couple more push ups, causing her to giggle. "Faster Raké:ni!"

He complied and smiled when she cheered him on.

Looks like training could be fun every once in a while.

I just had an urge to do something with Connor and Rebekah. I used to do this to my dad when he was forced to take my sister and I to work with him when I was little. He would work out afterwards and I always leapt on his back when he did push ups.

I'm probably the reason he has back problems now. He always let me do it though.

I had a feeling that Connor would be the same way

Enjoy dears!

Connor belongs to Ubisoft and Rebekah belongs to me.
