"Come on, boy! Don't quit!

Running through a obstacle course was the boy, Y/N Bowman. He leaps over a small wall before running up a big wall, before flipping to the top. Using his parkour skills, Y/N works his way before seeing a bow with three arrows. He runs to them before picking up the bow. He then sees three targets: a watermelon, an orange and a apple. He pulls and arrow and fires.

The arrow strikes dead center at the watermelon then he shoots and hits the orange and finally the apple. He puts the bow down before pulling out a staff before splitting it into two. He spins before seeing some China claypots and smashes them.

After the vases were destroyed, Y/N takes a breath before his father approach him.

Father: Well done, my son.

Y/N: Thanks father.

Father: Come boy. Let us go home.

The two leave the obstacle course not before taking the bow back. Long ago, both man and anthros live in harmony. Y/N and his father returned to their home.
