We arrived at training, and everyone was ready. Angel led us into a huge place, with places to go behind, hide, all that... It was also build like a forest. Had trees, grass, sticks, everything.

We all had thick, heavy black vests on that went down our arms, and helmets. I looked at Angel.

"Why do we need vests?" I asked. She sighed, taking out something. A small gun?

"Because this is training," She tossed me the gun and I caught it. I looked at it.

"So we have to shoot each other?" I looked up, raising and eyebrow. She nodded.

"Teams are Landon and Brianna against Jayden and Skylar. Jayden and Skylar, you guys go at the far end. That is your home base. It has weapons, and ammo. This side is Landon's and Brianna's. You will hear a horn, and then you may begin. First to get the flag on the opposite side wins." Angel explained. My eyes widened. I've never used a gun in my life!

Jayden got a gun as well, the same as mine, and we started walking to our side.

"Pistol's. Not the best, but eh." Jayden observed his gun. So it was a pistol...

"You know how to use a gun?" I asked. He smiled, and looked at me.

"Nope, but it can be that hard, right?" He looked back at the gun, and reloaded it.

"I guess..." I said slowly. We made it to our side, and into this little room thing. It was obviously made out of wood, and it held all of our supplies. Jayden grabbed something, and tossed it to me, as he got one for himself and put it on his belt. I looked at it.

"Ammo, make sure you have it." He said. I nodded, and put it in my pocket.

Suddenly we heard a loud horn, indicating we had to fight now. I breathed in and out.

"Alright, let's move out. You take the left side, try to stay hidden, and I'll take right." Jayden said, stepping out of the little wooden shed. I followed.

"Can't I just come with you?" I wondered, quietly, ducking behind something. He was on the other side.

"No, it's better if we split up. Good luck!" He whispered, and then disappeared into some trees. I groaned, and looked around the grey block. Nothing in sight. I pulled my helmet down.

Let's do this.

I began creeping slowly in some tall grass. I heard something crack, like a twig, but it wasn't me. I dropped to the ground, the grass covering me.

I peeked my head over, and saw a body, quite far away. I couldn't make out if it were Brianna, Landon, or Jayden.

The body then disappeared around a block, and a gun fire made me jump. Someone had shot. And then I heard another, and a few more.

Jayden probably.

I stood up, and kept walking, staying low though.

I heard someone again, this time closer. I got behind a tall, wide thing sticking out from the ground. I crouched down, and reloaded the gun. I peeked around the corner and saw the figure, but closer. They looked directly at me, and raised they're gun. I brought my head back, just in time, and a bullet whistled past.

I heard someone coming closer, so I panicked, and as fast as I could, leaned over; then brought my gun up and shot. I pulled back again, my heart rate going faster. I heard something again, this time like someone fell.

I looked over to my other side, and saw Jayden moving up slowly. He had his gun drawn. He looked over at me, and I could tell he was smiling under his mask. He gave me a thumbs up, and then a gun fire.

He fell backwards and I gasped. He layed there for awhile, and I was about to scream for help when he got up, and moved behind a block. He looked at me, looking dazed, but smiled. I did too.

I peeked my head around the corner again, and saw someone coming closer. I shot again, and they shot too. I suddenly felt something like a pinch and a punch on my arm. I stumbled back, and behind the block.

My arm was throbbing with pain, and I looked at my arm. I couldn't see very well, so I lifted my mask up, and looked again. I got shot where there was no protection. Blood was soaking into the vest around the wound. I gasped, and touched it gently. I looked at my hand, and it was covered in blood.

Suddenly I heard someone curse. I jumped, and looked up, to see Jayden kneeling beside me. He had his gun, and his vest was split open in some parts, but no wounds. He looked at me, and lifted his helmet up.

"You okay?" He asked, looking at my gun shot. I nodded weakly, but honestly, I wasn't okay. "Alright, let me call in." He took out a walkie talkie, and pushed a button.

"Angel? You there?" He said into it, while pulling out some sort of cloth.

"Angel speaking, what is it Agent Washington?" Angel's voice came through.

"Skylar was shot, we need you to stop the training," He responded, putting the cloth on my wound. I winced in pain, and leaned against the block.

"We can't do that, Agent Washington. The training does not end until someone has captured the flag." Angel said. I looked at Jayden, and he looked mad.

"Angel, we need to get Skylar out thou-"

"No, Agent, we cannot stop it now. Finish it." She answered, harshly. Jayden looked at me, and he looked concerned.

"It's okay... I can do this..." I groaned, and got up slowly, to my knees. Jayden grinned a bit.

"Alright, let's do this together. No splitting up unless it's needed." He reloaded his gun, and so did I. I nodded, and took in a deep breath. My arm was paining, but I chose to ignore it.

"Ready?" Jayden asked. I looked at him.

"Yeah. Let's do this." We pulled down our masks.

We both stood up, and right there was the figure. I and Jayden both raised our guns and shot at the same time. The person dodged Jayden's bullet, but mine hit them directly on the chest.

They fell back, they're gun flew out of they're hands. We sprinted over, guns drawn at the person. They reached for their gun, but I kicked it further away. They looked at me.

"Hey Landon," Jayden said through gritted teeth. Landon smiled. "Hey, sorry I hit you, Skylar."

I shrugged it off, although it still hurt.

Landon jumped up like lightning, and kicked Jayden in the chest. He fell back, and Landon looked at me. We raced for his gun, but he dived for it and got it first. He aimed it at me, but I easily knocked it out of his hands with my gun. I then shot where he was padded, in the chest; again. He stumbled away, and Jayden tackled him to the ground.

"Run, Skylar!" Jayden yelled, and then was kneeled in the balls. I nodded, but grabbed Landon's gun before running off. I now had a gun in each hand.

I ran even faster as I saw the flag a few feet in front of me.

Wheeenn... Brianna stepped out from nowhere land, and shot at me once, twice, three times.

I jumped, as one tried to hit my legs (Which was unfair cause you weren't supposed to shoot there). I dodged to the side, as one tried to hit my arm. And I leaned back, as one tried to hit me in the chest.

I stood back up straight, and shot at her with both guns. I stumbled back from the force.

She dodged both, but it looked hard for her. She then gave me a puzzled look.

"2 guns?" She wondered. I smiled sheepishly.

"Me against you... its fair," I answered. I was then shot at again, this time from behind. But it wasn't at me; it was at Brianna. And it hit her in the chest, taking her by surprise. She didn't fall like Landon had, no, she just stumbled a bit.

She looked up, and I turned my neck around. Jayden was sprinting over, when Brianna shot at him.

He dived forward, doing a roll and then shooting at her 3 times. She got hit, again, but this time; she shot at me while I wasn't even looking.

I gasped, as I felt the bullet sink into my vest, and I fell forward. Thank god for bullet proof vests... although she was awfully close, so I know that went through, hitting me.

I spun around, using one of my elbows for support, and shot twice from each gun. She jumped, twisted, and even did a back flip. But, that was a stupid move. As she was in mid air, I shot; hitting her directly in the middle of her chest.

She fell to the ground, and I got up quickly. I ran past her and grabbed the flag. I ran past her again, and towards Jayden. We hid behind a block.

"What happened to Landon?" I asked, and then winced from the pain in my back. He smiled.

"Taken care of. All we need to worry about is..."

He stopped, and at the same time, we looked up. Brianna stood over the block, aiming her gun down at us.

"Her." I finished, and then BAM!

We both rolled out of the way, Jayden shot at her while getting up. I got up slowly, my back starting to throb in pain.

"Skylar, run back to our base, and get out flag too! Once you do, we're done and we win!" Jayden yelled, as he ducked from bullet firing.

"Alright! Catch!" I yelled, throwing the gun in mid air. Everyone stopped, including Brianna.

The gun flew through the air, and Jayden caught it, aiming both at Brianna.

I turned around, and ran as fast as I could. I wanted to prove Brianna wrong; that I was as strong as her.

I stopped running when I heard something. I looked over, and saw something in the small, fake forest. I walked over, and Landon was tied onto a tree. He was trying to get loose, and I burst out laughing.

"...I am going to kill Jayden after this!" He yelled, still trying to wiggle free. I continued laughing. "Skylar,"

I stopped, but still had a smirk on my face. "Yes?"

He smiled. "Go win this," He said. I smiled and nodded.

"Thanks," I ran off, towards our flag. I finally made it, and stared at the flag. I grabbed it, and held both up in victory.

"We win!" I yelled, and the shooting stopped. Suddenly, I saw Jayden in the distance, running towards me. He dropped his guns, and threw off his helmet. He ran over, and hugged me tightly. I flinched from the pain, but ignored it and giggled. I hugged him back and took off my helmet, and dropped my gun as well.

"We won!" He yelled, picking me up. I laughed.

"It's not like you just asked me to marry you, I said yes, and you picked me up. So put me down please." I said, and he put me down.

"Thank you." He smiled and then a look of realization went over his face.

"Oh yeah, let's go fix up your arm." He said, and took my hand, dragging me away.

"I also got shot in the back," I added. He looked at me, concerned. I rolled my eyes.

"I'm okay, so please do not pick me up and carry me all the way back over there." I pointed towards to exit. He smiled.

"I wasn't going to but now..." He then picked me up bridal style, and walked towards the exit. I sighed.

"I said not to, Jay." I muttered. He just smiled at me.

We passed Landon and Brianna. Brianna was untying him, and Landon smiled at us.

"Good job guys," Landon said. I smiled, and Jayden just nodded at him. Brianna said nothing. She was probably mad.

I looked down, and Jayden looked angry too.

"What's up with you? We won," I said. He didn't look at me, and just focused on the exit door.

"Yeah, but you got hurt, and that's no fun," He said. I groaned.

"I said I was fine!" I protested. He shook his head.

"Too bad!" He responded. I glared at him, and he just smiled. I rolled my eyes.

We made it back to the exit, and I bugged him until he put me down. I stood up.

"Thank you!" I exclaimed. He laughed and we walked into the Health recovery place. Something on me started beeping as soon as we stepped in.

"That would be your recovery beacon," Someone said. We turned, and Angel was standing in the door way.

"What's that?" I asked.

"It means that your hurt and you need to recover," She answered, walking in. I look around.

The place was cool. It was huge, had boxes everywhere, probably with weapons inside.

"Once you stay here for long enough, you'll be healed, all good to go." Angel said.

"How does that happen?" Jayden asked, looking confused. I nodded in agreement.

"I'm not sure, actually. Anyways, you guys can stay in here for awhile. For 30 minutes about, and then you may leave."

"Cool," I said. Angel nodded.

"I'll leave you two, and see you at dinner." Angel started walking out.

"Wait, Angel! We actually have plans," I yelled after her. She stopped, and raised an eyebrow at me.

"Oh? You do?" She asked. Jayden looked confused.

"We do?" He asked. I nodded.

"Yeah, we're going to Jayden's house for dinner. His mom wanted us over tonight," I explained. Angel looked like she had been insulted, but I ignored it, and smiled; just to bother her. She frowned.

"Well then, have fun. I'll see you tomorrow," She said, and walked out. I chuckled.

"We have dinner plans?" Jayden asked, turning to me. I sat down on a box, and he sat beside me.

"Yep," I said.

"...Cool!"

I laughed.

"So does that mean you're my date?"

"Whatever makes you happy at night," I stated, rolling my eyes. He grinned childishly. I just grinned back.
