"Take A Break"
"Start training level thirteen."
Cosmo watched as his human attacked the robot. He was on high alert but knew that his human wasn't in any real danger. The first time Keith had trained, Cosmo thought he was being attacked and had tackled the robot, unintentionally defeating the level, but his instincts had told him to protect his human. Keith hadn't been angry at Cosmo, because he was just following his instincts to protect Keith. Keith used that time to explain to Cosmo what he was doing and that he was not in any danger. Fortunately, the cosmic wolf understood and didn't disrupt any future training sessions.
Keith didn't even spare his wolf a glance. He had to keep his attention on the gladiator, which happened to be dual wielding. That suited Keith just fine as he could do the same. He had his bayard in his left hand and his Marmora blade in his right. He had been going for several vargas and was getting tired, but he wanted to see how far he could get.
Cosmo tracked Keith's movements across the training deck with ease, never once losing sight of his human. He was on his paws in an instant when Keith was knocked to the floor.
"End training sequence." The gladiator powered down before it was swallowed by the floor. Keith stayed on the floor, panting slightly. Cosmo padded over and nudged Keith in the side with his nose. "I'm okay, boy. Just tired."
Cosmo wiggled his body under Keith's arm and teleported them to Keith's room. He managed to get Keith to duck through a decent shower. Keith was at first going to put on a clean pair of pants and t-shirt, but Cosmo held out the pair of Red Paladin pajamas. Keith knew better than to ignore Cosmo. He took and put on the pajamas. Cosmo latched onto Keith's sleeve and tugged him down into his nest. Cosmo laid down, and Keith snuggled up against Cosmo's fur. He was so soft and comfortable. The cosmic wolf curled around Keith and laid his tail over Keith's legs. Keith's eyes slid closed as he fell asleep, content to rest with his wolf.
