Psalms 55:22
The moment the students entered the gun range, they were greeted by a small woman telling them, "Clear downrange!" Joo didn't know what that meant but Pierce, who had experience with things like this, knew exactly clearly understood, so he pulled Joo out of the way of fire. The woman then shot at 5 paper human targets with a Kriss VECTOR, hitting headshots on each one, all while setting them on fire.
"Goddamn!" Pierce exclaimed. "She's one hell of a shot."
It had only been 7 seconds, yet Pyro already seemed like a badass. She started to ask the kids questions on Hangar 017, mentioning the grease she could smell on them. Pierce and Joo both smelled themselves, and she was right. Damn, just being in there made them reek of it.
Once again, Sandstorm suggested to let the children ask questions again, and the first one came from the one and only, Tommy Sanders. He asked if there were martial arts option here at the gun range, which actually got a chuckle out of Pierce with its stupidity l.
"Listen to this guy." Pierce started to say.
"Asking about martial arts in a gun range. Makes him even more laughable."
"Pierce." Joo snapped. "Stop shit talking him. It's not that bad of a question."
Joo turned away from Pierce and crossed her arms with a sigh. He tried to say something to her again, but she put her hand in front of his face as to say, "respectfully, shut up", which worked pretty well.
Pyro had the same thoughts about the question as Pierce, she found the question to be irrelevant and a bit stupid in a case like this. She also called him Bandages and Ginger, which Pierce frowned at, wishing he had thought of those names first.
Just when it seemed like Pyro had very well shut his ass up, Tommy definitely took it to heart. He began to literally rant angrily about how guns weren't the only weapons in the world, even cussing at her while stating it. Swords, Bo Staffs, and shit, he named them all to her. Then, this brave ass motherfucker called her "shortie", which is a horrible option, considering the woman had an arsenal of guns on her at the moment.
"Fucking idiot." Pierce muttered. "The hell is he trying to do, get expelled on his first day? Still want me to stop shit talking the guy?"
Joo didn't answer Pierce's question, but agreed with him. It was an irregular and dumb move to cuss out a teacher on your first day, especially one who was high ranking in the academy. She wanted to keep defending him so that Pierce wouldn't insult him any longer, but the more Tommy spoke, the harder it was to continue doing so.
Pyro seemed completely unfazed by the boy's harsh and brash comments. She explained that she knew that guns weren't the only weapons, and that she specialized in others, and then went on to talk about how he had some fight in him. Obviously. But it didn't just seem like some "fight", the guy basically had anger issues.
Pierce cocked his head a bit when Pyro picked up a gun and began to walk over to Tommy, and then his eyes widened in shock.
"Oh, gosh, she's gonna blow his goddamn brains out!" Pierce whispered, which got him a slap on the back of the head from Joo and a look that said, "No she's not, dumbass."
Then, Charlotte did the unexpected. She put the gun in his hand, pointed the barrel at her head and told him to shoot her. Joo let out and audible gasp, while Pierce remained silent, watching intently to see what would happen. Tommy looked shocked at first, just like everyone else, he hadn't expected her to tell him to do that. But a bit afterwards, he began to glare at Pyro, tightening his grip on the gun which made it seem like he was actually going to do it. Was he really that angry to kill a teacher in front of everyonem But instead, in two fast moves, he pointed the gun at the floor next to Pyro and pulled the trigger, causing a clicking sound to be heard. Nothing came out, the gun was empty.
Whew. Pierce thought with a sigh. He thought Tommy was going to fuck up his own life, just because he got angry because he asked a stupid question.
Pierce seemed to think that Tommy actually had self control, but completely making him lose all hope, Tommy quickly balled up his fist, and socked Charlotte right in her solar plexus.
"What the fuck is this guy's problem?" Pierce yelled out, not even trying to hide his disgust. Other students gasped as he hit her, and began whispering to each other about him.
Tommy threw he gun to the ground and glared at Pyro again, waiting for her reaction.
"Oh my goodness." Joo said while rubbing her temples. "Why-" she sighed heavily. "Why would he do that?"
"He's fucked." Pierce told her. "No way he gets put of this with no consequences. Dumbass."
