Zora looked in quiet awe at the bullets and at the odd assortment of gems. She had had no idea that you could actually enchant bullets - she had hoped it was possible, but she hadn't known if it could be done or not.

Looking at his jacket, Zora had to admit it was pretty darn cool. Unfortunately, she wasn't sure she could wear it every day - especially at work. But she did want one... maybe, she should get one anyways... the thought was tempting.

"What type of protection charms would you recommend?... and, I'd love a jacket if you can make me one?... " she admitted as she admired his.

"Oh, and what about a firearm, a gun to go with the bullets?" she asked seriously, "What would you recommend?"

"Well, really the point is having wearable protection that's not super conspicuous. A piece of clothing is doable but those take time. More time than you probably have. I'd say something that can block offensive magic, and your standard small caliber bullets. Nice thing about this island, people depend on their own mojo to the point they forget that mundane methods exist."

He pulled open a drawer on the bench and set a pistol down in front of Zora. "This is a Glock 9mm. Standard issue police side arm. It should be effective enough for what you need. That said, I can't sell this to you in good conscience without knowing you know how to use this thing. If you don't, I'll show you.

Zora shook her head, "You are going to have to show me. I do not know how to shoot or use a gun," she said with a quiet look of unease. "I am not even sure how to hold one properly," she admitted almost embarrassed by the fact that she didn't know even the basics of handling a weapon.

Donny nodded, he already had a feeling he was going to have to teach her how to handle a gun anyway. "Well, don't worry, I'm going to walk you through it," upon saying this he'd spend a decent bit of time explaining how to handle and care for the gun, going out of his way to keep it easily digestible for Zora. He even gave her some detailed instructions that she could take with her.

"Now as far as shooting goes," he got up, gesturing for her to follow him. It was a short enough walk down to a fairly empty corridor that was covered in bullet holes, blast marks, and well other damage. He rolled a dummy out, an anatomically correct dummy, the organs could be vaguely seen.

"Alright, aim for center mass, the torso. Generally speaking no one likes getting shot... shit hurts. This doll is obviously anatomically correct, take a shot," he handed Zoraida the gun and stood next to her.

She watched Donny with fascination and very carefully... how he handled the weapon, loaded the gun, everything. He made it look easy as he loaded the chamber and then handed it back to her. It didn't even look that heavy... until he placed it in her hands and she saw that the gun was heavy-ish in her small hands. It was more weighted than she thought it might be.

Looking at Donny first when he told her to take a shot, Zora then raised the gun and held her arm out straight, then as she pulled the trigger, she closed her eyes and let off a shot, hoping it would hit somewhere on the doll.

(You can decide how bad my babs did. lol)

She closed her eyes and pulled the trigger. The bullet grazed the dummy's arm, and Donny gave her a look. It wasn't frustration, more like amusement. He figured it was terrible, but not the worse he'd seen. He'd give her some advice.

"You have to look at your target if you wanna hit em, unless you're me. But you're nowhere near that level. Steady yourself and focus on this fucker, his name's Clyde. Don't take your eyes off him, he's one bad dude. Take aim, the gun's part of you and fire right at his damn heart, because he's coming for you."

Zora opened an eye as soon as she heard the shot and felt the unexpected kickback, glancing curiously at the target now, she frowned a little, frustrated really, when she saw that she must not have hit it. Glancing up at Donny, who was looking quite amused, she reddened when he told her basically to keep her eyes open if she expected to hit Clyde.

"Right, eyes open, Clyde - bad dude," she said with conviction as an image of Detective Miller actually flashed in her mind. Nodding, she held the gun up again, took a deep breath, and pulled the trigger. This time, to her surprise and delight, she actually hit the dunny. It was on the upper chest by the shoulder.

"I hit Clyde!" she said excitedly, feeling rather proud of herself, and smiled at Donny. "I actually hit him this time, and no closing my eyes either!"

"Yes you did, got em good! Great job," Donny emulated Zora's excitement. Meanwhile the dummy seemed to heal itself from the damage that was done to it.

"Now do it again, but better. You're not gonna have that kind of time in a real fight," he said, pulling a revolver out of one of his pockets and unloading all six shots into "Clyde" with inhuman speed to punctuate the point. From the bottom up: both kneecaps, the gut, heart, throat, and head. Donny twirled his gun and put it back into his pocket. Clyde of course recovered from the damage, pushing the bullets out and returning to his original state.

"Fuck 'em up, Buttercup."

"Wow..." Zora breathed in amazement when she saw Donny shoot the dummy, Clyde, dead on, in six different places. She then glanced up at him extremely and visibly impressed at his shooting ability.

"I don't know if I can do that," she admitted with some uncertainty, looking from Donny now to Clyde. It had looked easy enough - aim and fire quickly - but she doubted that it was that simple. She was pretty sure that Donny had just made it look easy.

Taking the gun from him again, Zora studied Clyde for a second, deciding where to start. Then she aimed and fired a succession of six bullets. Most of the bullets had hit or grazed Clyde, though not exactly where she had intended them to go. She had aimed for the knee and got the foot, as well as hitting the groin instead of the thigh... the biggest faux pas was when she accidentally got Clyde in the face instead of the chest or shoulder. She had raised her arm a bit too high and fast.

"Oops... I think I may have killed Clyde..." she grimaced as she lowered the gun and look to Donny. "Sorry about that."

"Oh geeze... I meant just take a single shot at his torso. Remember, if you're pulling a gun out that means your life should depend on it. Be ready to kill or maim if necessary," he wasn't mad or anything just kind of amused. The Clyde simply reset once again. "You shot him in the dick though, that was kinda funny. I'm giving you an amusement discount and a free stun baton for that."

"Remember what I said, and take the shot. But just one this time... stick to the basics, and don't waste ammo."
