DeathMatch: Tournament of Blood

[Shenzii]

The practice had begun. Ryn maneuvered her way through the course, plucking off robots one at a time. They were difficult, but this was the best way of letting off her steam. Once she was finished, she only had a few gashes and bruises. She walked out and put her guns back in the holsters after the last robot crumbled. "Thanks, fix them up and upgrade them." She walked out and back to the court yard. "If you don't mind, I'd like to take Y with me. You've done nothing so far." She looked at Y with a smile. "Come on. We'll start you off with getting a feel for your gun." She waited for him.

[Entaru]

Y nodded and followed...his mind silent.  No need to alert the others about something he wasn't even sure happened

[Shenzii]

Ryn looked at Y. "Is everything alright?" she asked as the walked to the shooting range. She sensed something was bothering him. His mind, although quiet, was far from at ease.

[Entaru]

Huh?...Oh, its nothing.  Still tired I guess.  Last night was the first time I've actually slept so I'm still a bit hazy.  They arrived at the firing range as he finished his thought.  So...firing a gun...shouldn't be too hard.

[Chrono Blackwyng]

Chrono was off on his own again, he tried to avoid the heavily guarded areas since he assumed that since he got here, he and Ryn were on steadily worsening terms. He managed to find a room with cars that looked mid-way through either construction or repair. He had an all too familiar itch to start building again, but part of him was nagging that Ryn would walk in and shoot at him while he was working on the cars, but he assumed she would be too busy with Y to even bother him if he was doing something constructive, regardless of wether it could be used to kill.

With a flourish of his right hand he 'made' the small book appear again, and started flipping through the pages for anything on vehicles. He had, during his days at DeathMatch, realized that the book was not made of just his father or ancestor's works, but anything he had a desire to learn. Of course, anything outside D.I.Y. or practical knowledge, was not in a language he was familiar with. So, he put curiosity aside and kept focused on the cars as he went to 'work'. If she starts shooting after I fix the cars, I at least have something to drive away in...

[Shenzii]

Ryn sighed. That's not what I'm reading. You can't hide things from me Y. You will learn that. It's a curse really. Some of the things I find out aren't pretty. But that's what I get for having this so called gift. She looked at him. "Alright. So take this." She took a black desert eagle from her back pocket. "This will be what you use for now." She handed it to him. "Now, when you go to shoot the gun, keep both eyes open. On the top is something that will help you aim better. Make sure whatever your aiming, this is right near." She walked a couple feet away and stood in front of him. "Now aim, don't worry if you pull the trigger. I didn't load it yet." She stood still and waited for him to aim. "Hold it with two hands, that way you have a better hold on it and it doesn't move some much because of the recoil."

((the purple is her speaking aloud))

While waiting, Ryn thought about Chrono, opening the link. I'm sorry. She said before closing the link once more. She felt guilty for acting the way she did. She wasn't used to someone going against her orders. She was a leader, and didn't know how to act any other way.

[Chrono Blackwyng]

Chrono stopped right in the middle of his repairs when he heard Ryn, and quickly looked about. He could only make out 'sorry', but tried not to let that distract him from doing something that could pay off later on; or, kill him if she tries to run him over with the same car. Maybe I should keep quiet about this until she finds out anyway.

He managed to get one of he cars to be seemingly repaired, but didn't have the keys to the car. He starts looking around for the key, and manages to find a janitor's worth of keys, obviously more than the amount of cars in the room. He opened up the car and did a successful test start, then turned it off before looking at the keys."Wonder to whom these keys belong..."

[Entaru]

Y looked at the gun and lined his eyes up with the sight and aimed at Ryn.  Suddenly his mind began to fill with numbers and calculations.  He could hear himself talking incomprehensibly in his own head as the he unconciously went through equation after equation.  Then, in a flash, the equations were gone and he realized that even if the gun WAS loaded, the bullet would have never hit Ryn in the first place.  Your sight is off...way off.

[Shenzii]

"Not mine... Yours." She walked over to him. "You need to adjust stuff... To fit what you think is the correct aim. I've been plucking people off for years... My sights are never off. I set this one off on purpose." She went back to where she was standing. "Fix it."

[Entaru]

Y looked at the gun and more equations began running through his head.  His hand seemed to act of its own accord as it began tapping, twitching, and turning the sight.  A percentage number kept rolling through his brain as the hand nudged the sight into place.  eEeigHtTY-ssSEvEeN...eEeigHtTY-fFfivvE....eEeigHtTY-eEeigHt...NnIineTyy-tThhRREe...NnIineTyy-TtWoO...NnIineTyy-ssIIxX...NnIineTyy-eEeigHt...NnIineTyy-ssSEvEeN...NnIineTyy-NnIine...NnIineTyy-TtWoO...ooOneE HHuNnDrEed!!!

As 100 was calculated, Y's hand jerked away from the gun and slammed to his side before he regained control of it once more.  Finished...  Y had only seen the numbers, so he didn't even notice the old voice.

[Chrono Blackwyng]

Chrono managed to fix at least half of the cars before he saw a maid at the door with her cleaning tools, and almost dropped them all when she saw Chrono under the hood of a partially-built Ferrari. The maid slowly closed the door and made her way to the weaponry room to clean the floor. "How is it that if Ryn doesn't find out first, a maid always seems to find me while I'm working?!"

[Shenzii]

Ryn smirked. What Y didn't know was that Ryn knew what was going on in his head. All of the numbers, equations, she sensed, heard. She stood quietly. She took out of the pouch on her hip, a clip for the gun. "Put this in and fire at him." She smirked her devilish smile once more.

[Entaru]

Y took the clip and slammed it into place.  The calculations took over again as he aimed.  Wind velocity, gravity, air resistance, bullet drop, the angle of the target, all variables were checked and double checked in the instant before he pulled the trigger.  His trigger finger pressed against the trigger rapidly, causing the gun to sound closer to a burst rifle than a pistol as all the bullets traveled down range.  There was a single bullethole where he had fired.

[Shenzii]

(there is no dummy...)
Ryn stood and famished quickly. The bullets struck the brick behind where she was. She reappeared next to Y. "for someone who hasn't fired a gun before knows quite a bit," she smirked.

[Chrono Blackwyng]

The faint yet distinct roar of a ferrari is heard in the armory, which originated from the garage where Chrono just finished fixing all of the cars. "Take that College education!!" he yelled as he got out, opened up the car garage door, got back in, and drove outside before doing doughnuts in the dirt...
