Antonio asked, "What else can you do?"
"As far as I know, I can light myself on fire, light other things on fire, and visit Hell."
"Do you at least know how to use your weapons?"
"Yeah."
"You know how to shoot and reload a Dragunov sniper rifle?"
"Maybe."
Ethan grabbed the sniper rifle off his back. He said, "When would I need a sniper rifle?"
"Whenever you need to shoot things."
"What would I need to shoot with it? I already have 2 Makarov pistols. What would I need to shoot that I can't shoot with a pistol?"
"A chopper, a tank, a mortar, a howitzer, anything that's too far, a dictator, another sniper, a terrorist, or even a gene buster."
"When would I need to shoot any of that?"
"Whenever you feel like it."
"Why would I need to snipe a terrorist?"
"Terrorists aren't exactly the kindest people in the world."
"It's not everyday that you get to meet a terrorist."
"That doesn't mean you can't shoot them."
"I'm not heartless enough to shoot things at random. What did no man's land do to you?"
"Honestly, I was always like this. That just wasn't the part of me that I let out. We all have a dark side."
At that moment, they both heard the loud crack of a thunderbolt from right outside the house.
