Chapter 5 – An Ork of Business

"Well done Dobby, today we'll see how you use a Shoota." I said to the Grot in front of me.

"But boss, isn't it just pulling the trigger?" Dobby asked.

"But if you just pull the trigger, will you hit your target?" I asked again.

"Yes?"

"No! It's not enough just to pull the trigger, you need to hit the enemy, if you keep shooting at nothing, it will only increase the chance of someone getting close and killing you. Now try to hit one of the bottles." I responded by pointing to the object in question.

We were at the back of our shack; I placed some glass bottles on top of some wooden boxes divided into different distances.

Dobby quickly waved with a smile on his face, pointed at one of the bottles and pulled the trigger, only to miss completely and hit the roof of another shack. I slapped my face in frustration.

"Listen Dobby, how about you calm down and aim for the bottle before you shoot? Know what? Do as I say. Firm your feet on the ground!"

"Yes boss!" Dobby did as I said.

"Second, hold the gun with both hands!"

"Yes boss!" Dobby held the gun in front of him with both hands.

"Hold the gun at eye level, but away from your face!"

Again, Dobby did as told.

"Now aim at one of the bottles, take a deep breath and shoot!"

"Yes boss!"

Dobby pointed at one of the bottles, took a deep breath and pulled the trigger.

BANG!

CRASH!

Moreover, he managed to hit the nearest bottle.

"See boss! I did it!" Dobby jumped with joy.

"Congratulations Dobby. Now do you understand what I mean? Hitting the enemy is much better than letting him kill you, isn't it?"

"Yes boss!"

"So keep practicing, there's still a lot of bottles left, and there's a lot more where those came from, we won't leave until you get them all right without too much trouble."

"You can count on me boss!" Dobby replied, returning to target practice.

While Dobby trained, I sat on the floor, leaning against a brick wall with Laenae's crib floating beside me, taking a quick look at the baby; I realized that she stared at Dobby with curiosity. Maybe she finds Dobby funny? On the other hand, maybe she is already learning about ork culture?

As if! As if! She is still too young to understand what is happening around her. A few thoughts came to my mind at the time. Perhaps I should have some weapons installed in Laenae's crib? At least for her to protect herself and help me during fights.

Another thought is if I should recruit more Grots to my team. I think I'm becoming an Oddboy, specifically a Runtherd, an ork that specializes in taking care of Grots and Snots and making them the strongest and fiercest, Runtherd often lead mobs of Grots and Snots onto the battlefield, giving orders to the little creatures.

I think that, because I don't hate Dobby, honestly I feel a little attached to the Grot, maybe it's the human side screaming louder when finding a being with low chances of killing me and who is loyal to me.

I wonder if it's possible to unlock all the ork abilities hidden in my DNA. Maybe I'll be able to become an Oddboy who specializes in all areas? If not, at least I can try to use and control the WWAAGGHH! power that all orks have.
