3rd Magic Bullet

Man, that was pretty weird, huh?  How much of all that do you guys think actually happened?  Was it an illusion or something?  Or maybe it was a really long and awesome dream?  Either way, the people in charge around here must be pretty powerful mages to affect a whole town like that for so long.

I'm glad the robot's gone and everything, but I kind of wish they'd have let me keep my other stuff from home.  But they left me the most important thing, so I can't complain too much.  Anyway, if anybody wants to join me since the weather's warmed up, I'm gonna be shooting some hoops after school today!

[Action; Friday afternoon - Mayfield High Gymnasium]

[Just like she said, Yuna's in the school gym after hours today, practicing on the basketball court.  She's wearing a loose shirt and boys' athletic shorts for lack of anything suitable for girls, dribbling the ball up and down the court and taking practice shots.  The hoop's too high up for her to get any awesome dunk shots or anything, but she does land over 90% of the shots she takes from mid-court or closer.  Anyone can feel free to come and join her during her practice, or when she's gone over to the bleachers for a water break]

Hah... I wonder if anyone would be interested in starting up a girls' team?

[Action; Friday night - Makeout Point]

[Yuna didn't announce this, but late Friday evening after the sun goes down, she's up at Makeout Point to practice some gunplay.  It's secluded and out of the way, she reasons, and the fact that she might be interrupting some hot dates seems not to have occurred to her.  At any rate, she draws a small rectangular card out of her pocket.]

Adeat!

[As the command leaves her lips, the card flashes and transforms Yuna into an awesome gunner outfit complete with magical pistol.]

All right, time to get some practice in!

[And she begins running all through the area, dodging left and right and strafing while firing magically charged bullets at rocks and various other pieces of scenery.]

Oooooh, a secret team, huh? Sounds mysterious~

[ahogevamp.livejournal.com]

I don't think it's anything like that... actually I'm not even sure why they're secret. Maybe Mayfield has something basketball in general?

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

Well, they're definitely not very good at being a secret team if somebody who's not even on the team knows about it. Assuming that's what's going on at all. Maybe I'll check it out anyway, though.

[ahogevamp.livejournal.com]

I was invited to check it out, that's all... so yeah I guess secrecy isn't really one of their highest priorities. Maybe it's like a secret club or a secret base... the secret part is there just to make it seem cooler.

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

I guess it worked, then, since I'm interested now!

[ahogevamp.livejournal.com]

Exactly... it's an ingenious mind game used to lure you in. And once they've got you, they'll never let you go.

...or something like that. It'd be pretty scary if that was the case, anyway.

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

That just makes me want to check it out more!

[ahogevamp.livejournal.com]

Aaron Taylor was the one who told me about it, so I guess he'd be your man if you want to look into it.

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

Aaron Taylor. Okay, I'll ask him!

[ahogevamp.livejournal.com]

Good luck. I'd teach you the secret handshake too but then I'd have to kill you.

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

Do they have a password to get in, too?

[ahogevamp.livejournal.com]

I think the referral from me should be good enough.

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

I bet if I just hang around here long enough, they'll probably show up for their next meeting.

[ahogevamp.livejournal.com]

Unless they're a basketball team that never plays basketball. But that'd kind of defeat the purpose.

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

Yeah, they should at least act the part if they're gonna call themselves a team. It'd look way more suspicious if they meet all the time and never actually play a game.

[ahogevamp.livejournal.com]

...now I'm kind of curious to see just what it is they do too.

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

We could always check it out together if you want.

[ahogevamp.livejournal.com]

Sounds good to me. I'm the one that got you into this mess... If they're actually secretly a cult or something, I'll cover your back as you make a break for it.

[gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com]

Deal! I'll hold you to that, you know.

[ahogevamp.livejournal.com]

Don't worry, I'm not the type to go back on my word... even in a situation like that.
