"I see I'm still the better shot." It was a running commentary between the siblings from the moment Allie had joined the pair compared notes yearly and Allie always came out on top; it was that time of year again. It was Saturday evening and the two of them were currently at LAX Firing Range./p

"That was a practice round Allie Cat. I've got this in the bag this year. I have it on good authority that you struggled to re-qualify after your latest injury."/p

They always shot both a shotgun and their personal service weapon. "Shotgun first." She heard Don chuckle again as she sent two new targets down the line. She waited until she was certain Don was about to shoot and then she spoke again. "Oh and Colby and Megan have a bet going on the outcome of this." As she expected her brother's first shot went wide and he stepped back to glare at her. "Oh sorry, I meant to tell you that before we started. My bad." She smirked back at him and moved to start shooting. "That wasn't a practice shot Donnie."/p

You and what toaster?" Again her comment threw Don off and he missed his paper target completely hitting hers instead. "That one's mine." Don growled and unloaded the remainder of his bullets randomly into the black area of the paper target before he stepped around the partition and faced Allie. She just smirked at him once more before she spoke. "Admit it, life would be so boring without me." She turned and hit the button to bring the targets back to them. She looked at hers, all centered head shots save the single hole Don caused, and then at the mess that was her brother's. "Yup still the better shot. I just won Colby thirty bucks." Allie turned serious. "Rematch on Monday evening if we don't have cases? Fair and square shootout. Colby and Megan can join us to make sure no one cheats"/p
