Practical Weaponry [Wednesday, Period Four]

Upon entering the Danger Shop, the class would have found it set up to resemble the outskirts of a Madagascan marketplace. Bond leaned against a wall on the second story of a dilapidated building overlooking a crowd intent on betting on the outcome of some sort of animal fight. In the distance they would have been able to see a construction site.

Once the class had joined him in the building Bond began. "Good afternoon, class. Today we'll be looking at parkour, which is the art of getting from one place to another as quickly, directly, and efficiently as possible, regardless of the obstacles in your path. While this may not immediately sound like a weapon, practical or otherwise, any other skill you may learn in this class will be useless if you cannot get to or away from a given fight in time."

He nodded in the direction of the crowd. "In this exercise, you will take turns playing the role of an MI-6 agent, who along with your partner in the crowd is observing a bomb-maker with the intent to capture," Bond said, indicating a man in the crowd. The burn scars on his face made it clear which of the two he was supposed to be. "However, your partner managed to raise his suspicions and he's about to flee the scene. Given that your partner is currently trying to avoid a cobra bite, it's up to you to give chase and apprehend the bomb-maker."

"Your main tools in this exercise will be your wits and your environment, but you will also be armed with one of these." Bond held up a handgun. "This is a Walther P99. Semi-automatic handgun, nine millimetre calibre, fifteen rounds in the magazine. However, given that your objective is to capture the bomb-maker alive, you are to use it only as last resort, and if you shoot anyone who is not a direct and immediate threat, you will fail the exercise."

"So, who wants to go first?"

Right about now, Hannibal kind of just wanted a damn break. Of course, that wasn't coming so with a wince of pain, he jumped into the cherrypicker, got himself acclimated to the controls and propelled himself down, trying to get there before the white van could pull away.

Dinah used one of the girders as a Bat-pole pole with her hands wrapped in rags that were lying around, instead of the cherrypicker. She had no idea how to turn that thing on.

She was still less than a block behind the bombmaker as he left the site.

No more vehicles. No more technology. No more--

Staring over yet another ledge-like thing.

He was just going to have to wing this one.

After a deep breath, he abused the thing's bloody structure to climb down as fast as he possibly could. He hated Bond fiercely. Bloody vehicles. Sweet mercy, what the cock was up with that?

"This guy doesn't quit," Kyle muttered to himself and started to climb down the cherrypicker instead of using the controls. He was down pretty quickly and after the van.
