War'nak<br/>Message<br/><br/>Once out by the lake, it took Karren showing her how to load the rifle in her hands once before she was able to do it properly. A little over a week ago, Kai never would have dreamed of holding a gun, much less learning how to use it so she could kill someone. It wasn't even a 'if push comes to shove' situation. She was learning how to shoot both guns so she could kill anyone who came after her family.<br/><br/>Her family? Only a few days with these people, these shifters she hardly knew, and they were already family to her? She hadn't had a family since her parents died; no one to take care of her but herself. Yet there she was, shooting bullets into trees across the lake with ease so she could take down anyone who came after Karren and her little family. Warren came first, he always would, but she'd tear anyone apart who threatened to hurt the rest of his family. It was a strange thought to her; downright foreign. But it made her feel warm inside, feel something that she hadn't felt in a long time.<br/><br/>It took all of twenty, maybe thirty minutes tops to learn how to aim the rifle properly, how to use the scope, and how to stand so that firing it didn't knock her on her ass. After that, using the shotgun was a breeze. Except for the kickback; it was a lot stronger than it had been with the rifle. But once she got used to it, Kai was shooting like a pro. Sort of. She came pretty close to hitting whatever Karren told her to shoot at. Most of it was grazing, some light, some not so much, but when it came to aiming at someone, well even being grazed with a bullet would be enough to slow them down.<br/><br/>She just hoped that when it came down to it...she'd be a good shot.
