Tactics and Teamwork, Wednesday - Second Period

When students arrived,  the danger shop didn't look like anything in particular. Just a big, empty room. Pretty boring,  to be honest.

"Welcome to Tactics and Teamwork," Washington said. "I'm Agent Washington,  your instructor. We'll have further introductions after running drills. Get to it."

Cardio was important when it came to not dying, kids! Just be glad he didn't have time to plan out the perfect obstacle course for you as well. 

This was also a good way to gauge the fitness levels of the class. Just... don't puke or anything. He wasn't going to clean that up. Only once laps were completed was everyone presented with a very basic set of body armor in either red or blue and a paintball gun with the same color bullets. Fair warning, even with the armor, it would still sting.

"I'm aware that there is an uneven number of students in this class, so for the purposes of team exercises, there will be a simulation soldier programmed into the system to assist you," Washington said. "For this class, I want to see where your skills are at working in working as a cohesive team against one another. The objective is to remove all the opponents on the other team from play by hitting them with the paintball gun."

The room changed into... well, pretty much like it was before. Only this time, there were large storage crates scattered around for cover.

"I'll be keeping an eye on your progress and will step in should anyone get too... enthusiastic."

"Oh. Um, good." That was a good thing right? Getting used to it?
soniaroadsqueen: (seriously)

"No?" The denial came quickly, but didn't sound entirely convincing.

"I just, um, it's harder to move with this on?" And Ringo was used to having freedom of movement.

Well, that was true. "I guess I could give it a try."

She nodded in determination and slowly bent backward, her hands reaching up and back as she sought to settle into a back bridge. Unfortunately for Ringo, she couldn't quite arch her spine as easily, and she over balanced before flopping down onto her back.

Ouch.

Well, okay, it didn't really hurt. The armor had cushioned her short fall, after all.
soniaroadsqueen: (straight at you)

Ringo took his hand and pulled herself back to her feet. "Thank you," she said, trying not to sound doubtful.

And, actually, she realized that he was probably right. She would get used to it over time, and figure out how she actually could move.
