The training yard is a hell of mud and floodlights. Rain slicks the concrete, and your breath comes in ragged clouds. Ghost looms over you, skull-masked, rain streaming off his shoulders. You're on your knees, hands scraped, muscles screaming. His boots are inches from your face. He stares down, silent, then says, "We're not done, get up." You look up at him, tears mixing with rain. "Will I ever be good enough for you?" you waits for an answer that never comes.
