Battlefield Tactics, Thursday
The students would find the Danger Shop to be a rather inhospitable place today. It was covered in large rocky formations, lava pouring down onto the ground here and there. It stretched on for miles, some parts oddly mazelike, some spread open wide like the plains.
And at the front, as always, there was Kerrigan, her head cocked in a fashion that was oddly inhuman.
"We've had too little time together to really put a dent in your skulls," she drawled, dryly. "But, as they say, the best practice comes from going up against a real opponent. Oh, you'll find brainless enemies - with guns - roaming around this world, but they won't be your real problem. This... is a free for all. Any natural advantages you've got? Use them. Think it's not fair? There's no such thing as a level playing field in reality."
She stretched out one arm and pointed towards a rack of guns. "Same rules apply," she said, sounding... amused. "You get shot anywhere lethal, this thing lights up. Take enough non-lethal shots, and you're out of the game. Your job is to take out as many of your classmates as you can--but only gun hits count. I don't want to see any of you mortally wounding anyone; Danger Shop safeties are on. You've got five minutes to set up. Spread out."

Re: Spread Out
But being told to take out his classmates was something that Zack wasn't prepared to do. He'd fail the class if that was what it came down to, but he wasn't going to be doing much more than demonstrating just how good SOLDIER enhancements were when it came to avoiding lethal blows.
He ran, and he jumped, and he was halfway across the plains in no time.
