Firearms Discussion and Whatnot

Well, I ended up getting to where I am comfortable around guns. I went to the shooting range and was excited to do so. This was over 7 months ago. I'm doing much better and hoping to go for a concealed carry permit. I did have an instance where I thought someone broke into the apartment and was screaming, and I was in the bedroom where me and my boyfriend slept. So I quietly locked the door to my bedroom and assembled his Ruger and did a sweep of the apartment. Turned out it was just my neighbors yelling in the next door apartment And one time we had came home and the apartment door was open, and the boys weren't home yet, so me and my best friend were scared to death, but she told me to stay outside and quietly and slowly went into her bedroom (visible from the front door) and pullled out her shotgun and did a sweep of the apartment. We didn't see anything taken out of the apartment or anyone in, so we just guessed that we just didn't close the door all the way.

Derek listened intently to what she said. He would agree to keep calling her Krista, but he still wanted to know her real name out of curiosity. He wouldn't pry it out of her. He didn't like that she had to remember her past because of his arrogance. But right when she had told him about the sunlight, he knew it was no mere coincidence. He balled up his fist and punched the wooden table he sat on. "Son of a bitch!" he exclaimed, jumping off the table. He shrugged off his jacket, feeling heat of his body entrap the faux fur on the inside. He placed it around Jennifer's shoulders. "After school, I need you to trust me more than anything. I know that I promised to leave you alone, but there is nothing you can do to stay safe. This man is dangerous. He is not like the average serial killer and I can't explain it to you because he probably knows you are here right now. He is probably watching you right now. He probably watched you for weeks, if not months, before he proved to you that he knew where you were. There is almost no sunlight in this area during winter. This is the perfect hunting ground," he said, straightening the jacket on her shoulders. He took in a deep breath. He knew that she understood the severity of her predicament, but not the severity of a vampire.

Okay, I just woke up about an hour ago myself. Finally got called for a job offer x.x

Deal with the Devil

Jessilyn continued the same portrait even after he had moves. She looked over at him and back to her work. "There is a time in an artists life, when something phenomenal happens to them, and they are too infatuated with life to capture the phenomenal moment. As a demon, you are one of the most feared creatures on this Earth, next to lions, tigers, and bears," she said. She had finished the outline of the demon, and began painting the outline of the flamed mirror. She looked at the mirror, still using it as a refernce, even though the call to hell was no longer visible. "I decided to do an artistic work on you doing your chat with whomever it was you were speaking to. I shall call this piece, "The Devil's Deal". So, you need to possess someone eh?" she asked.

You may just get a laugh out of this <3

Well, I guess since this thread is here, I'll explain my first firearm experience. I was always afraid of guns. I watched my papaw (southern talk for grandfather) shoot the head off a 6 foot, 12 rattled rattlesnake. The noise scared me as a child and ever since then I had been afraid of being around them or seeing them. Well, I moved a few states away to be live with my boyfriend at the time who was in the Air Force and my best friend since kindergarden, and my boyfriend's best friend. My first night there, they all forgot about the guns scattered around the apartment and told me not to come in the apartment until they told me okay. So they hid all the guns in the gun safe except for a mosin-nagant that was hanging on the wall. They removed the firing pin which still did not ease my anxiety. So the next day, whilst my boyfriend and best friend went to work, my roomate and boyfriend's best friend Drake (i knew him from high school) decided to whip out a hand gun in front of me in the living room, causing an anxiety attack to flare up, but he dismantled it and showed me there was nothing to be afraid of. I spent 2 hours with him and finally touched a gun for the first time in my life. Well later that week they took me to a shooting range to get more comfortable around the sounds of shots being fired. My boyfriend wanted to take his 9 mil Ruger and shoot a couple of shots in it. So, i watched, and every time he shot a round I would jump. Then I decided to get ballsy and ask if I could shoot. Big Mistake My boyfriend stood behind me, close enough to help me if I needed it. I had to stop shaking in order to shoot the gun, and I took my time. I could feel my heartbeat in my throat and I felt like I was about have a nervous breakdown. They were about to pull the plug and just have me watch. I fired the Ruger. I don't remember if I hit the target or not, because my legs gave out underneath me and I passed out. Never have I ever, been so embarassed in my life. Drake had to pull the gun out of my hand and quickly put it on the table in our lane, and try to catch me. My boyfriend ended up catching me from behind in a full nelson type of movement. I had to sit down the rest of the time like a child in time-out -.-

Sorry that I kind of made your character go outside, but it was better than only having a few lines waiting for her to walk out with him xD I hope that's okay!

He nodded his head and walked to the door leading to the front of the building, holding it open for her. He waited until she followed him to the side of the building at the patio-type area that had tables during lunch time during the summer. He turned to face her, and he sat on the top of the table. He honed in on his sensitive hearing and could tell no one was within hearing distance. He could not smell any scents close to them to hear their conversation. "I know who you are. I don't remember your real name. But believe me when I say that you are in no way safe in this world. No matter where you go, he will find you. No matter who you talk to, he can get to them. But I want you to trust me. I know you do not trust me at the slightest bit, but I need you to. I'm not going to ask you to re-live your memories. I'm not going to ask you about the experience. And when I ask you this next question, please be honest. Did anything about the person seem abnormal to you? Did he seem almost, non-human?" he asked. He could tell he was being very pushy. He knew that by making her talk that she was jeopardizing her life, her parents, and anyone she ever cared about. But in reality, he needed to know these things. He needed to know if a vampire was heading into their territory. Werewolves had a treaty with the vampires dating back thousands of years. Although they both hated each other, the treaty was never to be broken or else there would be an all out war against one another, possibly bringing their existence to light. If this vampire was to invade Polina, then they had a shit storm heading their way.

He jogged faster towards her. He could see that she wasn't in no mood to talk to him, or if she even wanted him to bother with her. He couldn't help but feel horrible for her. He could sense this overwhelming feeling that maybe this was all a game to the serial killer. He just toys with her for years and hopes she gives in a fight. But once all the fight is left out of her, he would surely kill her for real the next time they meet. "I can't just leave you alone," he said, jogging up closer to her so that he could talk with her in private. He put his hand around her elbow, tugging at her. "Come with me. I promise you that I will leave you alone if you'll just hear me out."
