Discovery & Invention, Period 5, 5 Mar '08

Approximately ten feet inside the Danger Shop there was a deep, sharp crack in the earth, marring the otherwise gentle rolling countryside. Mohinder was pacing back and forth on the far side as he waited for the class to assemble.

"Today we'll take a look at mechanics, or more precisely ballistics," said Mohinder. "The science of projectile in..." A cannonball crashed into the ground at his feet, and rolled into the gap below. "...motion." Mohinder glanced back over his shoulder, hoping his programming had been correct. He talked on, briefly covering ballistics, and turning to focus on early siege warfare.

"I won't ask you to move the world with your levers," he said, looking from the moddable materials, tools and paintballs by the edge of the gap to the equally moddable walls and towers on his side. "Try building something that will mark your mark."

Sokka had his very own clicky-pen today, and was clicking it in time to some music in his head.

Sokka set about swiping as many materials as he could, in order to build the largest possible catapult.
