Desire

8 - impressed

Valerio's POV:

She didn't seem nervous at all.
Instead, she seemed confident and walked back to the start of the building where Louis, Nina, and Matteo were standing.
Me and Carla followed her steps.

We got to the shooting hall, the people practicing in the hall left the hall on my command.
The weapons were laid out.
Nina , Louis , Matteo and I stood on the sidelines and looked at Carla and Olivia and signaled to start showing what they could do.

Carla went first. She picked up the weapon and aimed at the sign at the end of the lane.

In total there were three boards and three different lanes, the first board was large and had large circles so was easy to hit, the next board was smaller and the last board next to it was the smallest and hard to hit. The first board went perfectly and she shot right into the circle, the second board also went perfectly. On the last board, her facial expression showed that she was more concentrated, hitting just a few inches off the center of the board.
Still she did a good job and we were impressed.

Now it was Olivia's turn and took over the gun from Carla.

Olivia's POV:
I grabbed the gun and aimed at the first board, it was too easy the boards were quite big and I hit the first two boards with no effort.
I walked to the third board and it was quite small so a bit more difficult. But I also hit it right in the middle.

I proudly looked back and saw that they were impressed .
Except Nina, of course, who looked at me annoyed again.

''Shall we move on to the next part? this was too easy."
I looked at Valerio and he nodded and held the door open for me and we all walked to the climbing wall where knives were thrown at you.

I noticed there was a button on the right top of the wall. You had to press it and then the machines would stop and you would have made it. A laiser shone from the machine through which you could see where a knife was being thrown. Carla went first and plastic knives were used so she wouldn't hurt herself. She quickly climbed the wall and dodged the knives, she was fast but unfortunately not smart. She was about to touch the button but a laiser shone on her back and seconds later a knife flew out of the machine and landed on her back . It didn't hurt because the knives were made of plastic, but I saw that she hated it.

Matteo looked at her.
''Good try, it was of course your first time''. and gave her a high five.

It was my turn. I stood at the beginning of the climbing wall.

Nina looked at me.
"Plastic or real knives?"
The only reason she asked was to screw me.

Valerio looked pissed at Nina and realized what she was trying to do.
''Nina don't be a bitch and put the plastic knives in it''.

I hesitated whether it was wise to do this.
''No, put the real knives in''. I said confidently.

Everyone looked at me confused.

Carla shook her head.
"Are you sure this isn't really a smart plan-"

I interrupted her.
"Yes I'm sure put the real ones in there please." I looked at Nina to indicate that she couldn't just get rid of me.

"Fine, but you'll never succeed." Nina spoke softly but still I heard what she said.

''Watch me''. And I winked at her.

Valerio signaled me that I could start and the machine was ready. I climbed around the wall with ease and fast like a spider.
The laiser aimed at my leg and I quickly pulled my leg in and a second later a knife flew into the wall where my leg had been a few seconds ago.
I climbed on with speed. Two laisers aimed at me, one on my head and the other on my back. And within a second I let go of my arm from the wall and what caused me to now sit with my back against the wall and my belly turned down to the others. Two knives flew next to me and I ducked in time. I continued to climb with speed and kept dodging away from the blades.
