Picture of Hunter on the side
Chapter 2
Alison's P.O.VI'm in the woods,where I usually am, and I can't stop thinking about those texts I got an hour ago. April is always pranking me but she's never done this. Maybe it's not April, what if it's a wrong number. I mean- there are about a thousand other people here that like archery, as well. Ya! That's it! Who would text me saying that, my friends don't even know that I'm into archery. It's not that I'm keeping secrets or that I'm hiding it from them they just never bother to ask. It must be a wrong number what else can it be? Yeah it's a wrong number.
It's been two hours sense the strange texts messages and I've forgotten all about them. Not really. I've been practicing on some dummies and targets and like always I haven't missed. One more wouldn't hurt. I think for a moment if I should throw one more or not and I decide that it would most definitely wouldn't hurt. I smile as I pick up a bow and arrow from my gym bag where I keep my equipment in.
I stand up and get in my position to fire. I'm aiming in between two trees in the middle there's a tall thin tree. In the center of that tree there's a big red dot that I spray painted. Every time I'm about to throw I try to clear my mind and focus on my target.
I pull back the string, getting ready to fire. My bow is about 40 lbs. Now for the people that don't know much about this stuff let me teach you a few things. This does not mean that the bow weights 40 lbs. it means that it requires 40 lbs. of force to pull back the string.
I personally like the recurve bows better but a lot of people rather use compound bows because there easier and they have wheels and cams on each of the limbs. Which makes it 75% easier because you don't need that much strength.
I personally think that the best arrows you could use are carbon fiber arrows. They're good to use if you want accuracy, durability and speed.
This is why I like to practice in the middle of the woods because I can shoot from far distances and I won't accidentally shoot a person from out of no where.
I move my feet, shoulder length apart to have a balanced stance. I place my feet in the direction of my target. I pull the arrow back using my shoulder and shoulder blade muscles. I put my index finger above the arrow, and the middle and ring finger below it.
1...2...3....↠shoot
I release my 3 fingers spontaneously and in a blink of an eye I see the arrow hit the center of the target making me smile happily.
That was easy
"Wow your pretty good," I hear a male's voice say making jump. My reaction is quick, I grab an arrow and with out even thinking I turn around and aim.
His right against a tree, if I aim and hit my target, which is his shoulder, the arrow will go there and he won't be able to move. Making time for me to run. I don't even bother counting or relaxing I just shoot.
He reacts fast and jumps to the side. The arrow hits the tree making me miss my target.
"WOOO! I'M SORRY! I DIDNT MEAN TO STARTL YOU!," the boy says raising his hands in surrender.
I relax when I see his no intruder. I put my bow and arrows down. I look up and study him, then realization hits me he's the new kid from school Hunter. Shit! I must of scared the shit out of him." I'm Hunter. Remember I'm the new kid, sorry i didn't mean to scare you. I'm new around here and I thought it would be a good idea to look around but I got lost. Then I saw you...," Hunter says look down at his shoes.
"Of course I remember. Uhm...sorry about that I thought you were some psycho killer or something" I laugh nervously. He doesn't laugh.
"so without even think... I tried to...well you know. Anyways I'm really sorry."
