Piers was taking me to a huge building. 'What is he going to do with me?'

"So, do you have any idea what we're going to do?" was Piers asking me. "No, I really don't know." I answered. Piers was grabbing my arm and we headed to the reception. He seemed to pay for something. The woman at the reception is leading us to a room. As soon as I saw the room, I knew what he has planned! I opened my eyes widely. "Piers! I've always wanted to do that. How did you know?" Piers just smirked at me. He was rubbing the back of his head while he gave me the answer. "Chris told me." Ah well, Chris knew everything about me. What I like, what I hate and so on.
The shelfs right in front of us were filled up with laser guns. It's laser tag (I don't know how it's called in other countries o.O) of course. I've always wanted to do that.
Piers and I were taking a gun and the gears. The guns were connected with a vest, which has some spots to shoot at. Each one gave specific number of points, so shoulders gave 50 ptk, back 30 ptk and chest 60ptk.

"Ok people. Come here so we can split you up into teams!" was the employee yelling.
"The two of us would like to be one team!" was Piers responding. "What, only the two of you? You know that won't be a good idea." The employee was grinning. "Okay, you two against the rest, did I hear right? There are 16 people." he wanted to make sure. "Yes! We are sure" Piers said firmly. I nodded to confirm his statement.
"Okay then, as you wish. You to build Team Alpha, and the others are Team Beta." The employee was still grinning as he opened a door. There was coming a lot of fog out of there. This looked so exciting!

Piers and I were entering the area first, we split up in different directions. After a little while, the others were entering the area, too. We both had already spotted a great position and were waiting for the others to come, so we could shoot them.
Cowered on the wall I was waiting for the first targets to come, concentrating on every noise around me. I was noticing some footsteps coming closer and closer. When the time was right, I leaned out of my cover and with some targeted hits I shot them. There were 3 of them, and I hit the chest from everyone. And since your gun was blockaded when you get hit, there was time for me to find a new cover. While I was looking for a new cover, 2 other enemies were after me, they were about to shoot me, but I jumped to the side. After I hit the ground I made a quick role, aimed and shoot them again in the chest. After they realized that they were hit, they looked really surprised.

I ran away and found a new cover. To the right I saw again 3 people, they also were waiting for someone to come by. I had an idea, there was a barrel right behind them. I knocked at the wall and quickly I was hiding behind that barrel. They noticed this noise and all of them were slowly coming closer. I was awaiting the right point. I stood up, only my head and gun were visible, but they were to slow anyway. I shot them again in the chest and I moved to the next point. While I was running, I crashed into someone else. Totally out of reaction I pushed him away and was about to shoot, then I realized it was Piers. "Piers, sorry, I didn't saw you." I was explaining. "Don't worry, I didn't saw you either. How many points do you have so far?* Was Piers wondering. "I got now 480 points, and you?" "Damn, I have 450 points. You're pretty good. But there's still some time left." Was Piers meaning. "Ok, let's see who will get more points." I was challenging Piers. "ok, then good luck!" was Piers wishing me. "Thanks, for you, too!" I nodded. We clapped our hands and continued our hunting.

After a while the time was up and we had to go back to the base. All of us were leaving the area. Still full armed everyone stood there to wait for the results. Piers also came and he put himself right next to me. "So, how many points did you get?" was Piers wondering. "I got 3240 points. And you?" "Damn it, I have 3230 points, only 10 points less than you." Was Piers smirking. "So, you're better than me, you don't need that training next week." "But I would like to have it anyway, sometimes I lost my balance and had other little problems." Piers was looking at me and nodded with a smile on his face.
