Today, when the students arrived at the Danger Shop for their final, they found it transformed into a cavernous abandoned underground train system.

As they entered, V handed them one of two things: a Super Soaker filled with red dye, or a bag of eight water balloons filled with the same.

"There is protective plastic for your clothing, if you wish it," V said once everyone had their equipment. "The objective is, obviously, to strike someone of the other team before they can do the same to you. Those of you with the water balloons may not reload - those are your only ammunition, and use them well. Those of you with the water guns may reload." He gestured expansively to two large buckets filled with the same dye.

"Water balloon holders, it is your objective to reach the inside of that train." He pointed at a long, silver train with the door cracked slightly. "You may run, hide, and operate in a guerilla fashion, or stand tall and face each other. It is entirely your choice, based on what tactics you choose. At the end of the class, those with little to no dye on them will receive a biscuit." He held up a tin of what appeared to be Christmas cookies.

"Best of luck."

[Okay, so basically, those with the water guns are chasing those with the balloons. You guys have an obvious advantage. Balloon guys, you can hide, duck, trip the others, etc., and make sure your aim is good with those balloons!

Here are the lists of who has what, because V totally has a reason for divvying them up like this:

Super Soakers: Layla, Teddy, Seely, Peter Parker, Peter Pevensie, Bridge, John, Z and Charlie
Water Balloons: Dean, Alec, Bel, Jack, Tyler, Pete, Aeryn, River, Alanna

Have fun, and thank you for being a *great* class. You deserve better than the attention I was able to give you for the past few classes. *hugs*]

Bel tried to keep the pile of trash between him and Kawalsky, but it wasn't providing much cover. He took a shot to the shoulder as he started to run away, throwing a balloon back over his shoulder.

The balloon missed, but Kawalsky lost his footing and ended up falling into the dye anyway. He picked himself up and started to chase after Bel. He didn't fire until he got within range.

Bel unwisely paused to snicker when Kawalsky fell. Unfortunately, this negated any ground he'd gained when he started to run. So when Kawalsky got back up and started running at him, he looked frantically for cover and found none. Well, if he was going to go down, he'd go down fighting. He took a couple shots to the chest as he launched three balloons at Kawalsky in rapid succession.

Kawalsky got pummelled, but that's what you get when you charge in. He kept firing back until he was out of dye, then lowered his gun and blinked away dyed water from his eyes. "I think we're dead."

"No cookies for us," Bel said mournfully.

"I think, in the name of baked goods, we should consider teaming up and making a play for the cookies."

Bel nodded thoughtfully. "What, take out V?" he said. "Or make sure someone survives without dye, and then take him out and steal his cookies?"

"I don't like our chances with V, so I'd say the other one. A guy in a mask has gotta be hiding something."
