Gemini's idea part 2

"Really Virgo? You're only doing this for spite!" said Taurus.

"What? Of course not! This is a hobby of mine," retorted Virgo.

"Throwing books into a fire is a hobby of yours?" asked Taurus.

"It sure is," replied Virgo. Then he tossed the book that he was reading earlier into the fire in their backyard.

Taurus gasped in horror. "Virgo! Burning books is a sin!"

"Good thing I don't care. Am I right?" asked Virgo.

"I refuse to burn a book."

"You have to."

"No I don't."

"Hey! I had to read that book and I still don't know what happened to Janet."

"Then you should of READ the book. That way you'd know what happened to Janet."

"Burn that book."

"No."

"Burn it! Burn it! Burn it!"

"Oops. A bunch of dirt came out of nowhere and smothered the fire. I guess I can't burn it now."

"That's alright, I'll light a new fire."

"You carry matches in your pocket?"

"Yeah. You don't?"

"No!"

"Well that's not my problem."

"Ugh why are you like this?"

"Why are you so boring? It's a wonder Aquarius is dating someone like you." Then a hole opened up under Virgo's feet and he fell down. Taurus looked down at Virgo. "Taurus that wasn't nice."

"You just said something that wasn't very nice to me." Then a branch grew out of the hole and Virgo climbed out.

"I had to read one page so you have to burn one book," then Virgo lit a fire. "Burn it."

Taurus sighed and chucked a book in the fire. "Happy?"

"Yes, I am."

  Aries and Capricorn were in the back yard. They decided to ignore Virgo and Taurus who were in the middle of an argument. Aries nailed a target to the tree house.

"We're trying archery?" asked Capricorn.

"Yeah. It's pretty fun," replied Aries. Then she passed Capricorn a beginners bow while she kept the more advanced bow.

"Is there a proper way to shoot this or is it as easy as it looks in the movies?" asked Capricorn.

"You just pull back on the string but you have to have the right stance," explained Aries as she quickly put her hair in a braid. Then she showed Capricorn the proper stance. "Now just pull back until your knuckle brushes your cheek and then release." Capricorn pulled back on the bowstring and let it go. The arrow flew past the target.

"I missed."

"That's alright. Barely anyone hits the target their first try," reassured Aries.

"Did you hit the target on your first try?" asked Capricorn.

"No, but I didn't take long to learn. Watch me." Then Aries got in the proper stance and shot an arrow. It hit the bullseye. Capricorn stared at Aries for a second. "What?"

"Sorry. You just look a lot like Katniss Everdeen when you shoot a bow and arrow. Especially with your hair in a braid like that," said Capricorn.
