SIDE MISSION 1: Big Guns

"Dad... It's so big and hard..."

"I told you, didn't I? Now touch it..."

"Oh wow... This is my first time..."

"How does it feel to you?"

"It feels so... strong and powerful..."

"Now, honey, do as Dad told you..."

"I-I'll try... Mm... Am I doing this right?"

"You're doing great Hana. You're getting there."

"Ah!... It came out."


Smoke came fuming out of a target practice drone, its head caved in due to the bullet trauma. "I did it dad!"

"You did great, honey. I suppose all that time you spent playing your video games helped a lot today." Jack said as he patted Hana's head gently.

"Now I put it on safety mode, right? Like.. This?"

"Yep. Good job today. Now, don't go using my pulse rifle on your own, alright? Only use it when I'm around and only when we're here in the firing range."

"Yes, dad!"

"Good girl. But what got you so interested in my pulse rifle anyway?"

"Well.. I wanna be a cool hero like you are, dad."

"O-oh, really?"

"Yeah! I wanna be a cool hero that helps people from the bad guys, like you! It's my dream!"

"I see.." Jack knelt down and rubbed her head gently, smiling at her. "I'm sure you'll be a great hero someday, Hana. One that will bring a smile to everyone's face. Don't ever give up on that dream, okay?"

Hana stepped closer to Jack to give him a tight hug. "I'll do my best dad. I might be an even better hero than you!"

Jack chuckled and returned her hug, rubbing her back. "I'm sure you will, honey. Now, it's about time to get dinner started. But I'll be making a lot tonight so I could use some help from a hero right about now!"

"Ooh! I can help! Me!"

"Just the hero I wanted to see! Let's get to work then. It's your favorite."

"Fried chicken?"

"Yep. Just the way you like it."

"Yess! Thanks dad!


A/N: I couldn't help myself lmao. Just a fun little side-story here. Still thinking of what can/should happen in the following chapters. If you have any ideas, feel free to tell me through either a review or a PM!
