Tactics 201, Thursday Period Two, 31/01

"Hey, kids."

Lieutenant Kerrigan was doing her utmost best not to run her hand repeatedly through her hair, standing in the middle of a simulated canyon in her Ghost outfit. "We were going to do a physical exercise today, but due to circumstances beyond my control, the planning has been altered slightly. We'll be running another simulated exercise today.

"Having dealt with defensive fortification last week, we'll be working on our offense this time. You're to team up in groups of two-- one of you will be driving a Vulture cycle, which aren't hard to master, but I'd advise anyone with motorbike experience to choose this option to make it easier on your classmates, while the other uses four NPC Marines around the canyon walls to try to take the Vulture out. Vulture drivers, your job's to get to the flashing signal at the end of the canyon."

When in doubt, go with class plans a colleague came up with. "Good hunting."

Well, that did it. Sky was forced to dodge as a few random bullets nearly their mark and resolutely took off after Sokka, leaving the Marines behind in his haste. His own aim was pretty steady but off a little due both to anger and running over rough terrain.

"SUIT YOURSELF, THEN!" Sky yelled, firing.

There went that alarm again -- except this time it was his armor that was about to fail. Sokka made one last, desperate leap and reached the beacon, laying his hands on it as bullets peppered his body. Then he slumped onto the ground and didn't move for a long, long time.

"Owwwww... That HURTS."

Sky felt immensely guilty as he reached a good place to climb down and did so as fast as he could, running up to Sokka.

"Hey, man, are you alright?" he asked, concerned. "I hope I didn't hurt you."

"Nah, I'm fine," Sokka lied. "It'll take more than a few dozen pretend bullets to stop the likes of me." He grinned. "Besides, I totally won."

"You sure did. That was impressive," Sky said, nodding. He offered a hand for a high-five. "Great job."

Sokka slapped him some skin. "You, too."
