Jesse was putting bullet after bullet, round after round into the targets in front of him. He missed all of them. He was growing frustrated with himself, feeling the Blackwatch commander's presence behind him. He had already gone past the point of failure into no return.
He feels a hand on his shoulder and he freezes up as he's spun around to be face to face with Gabriel Reyes. "Jesse." Just hearing his own name from the man was enough to send chills of fear through him. He was thoroughly afraid of him.
"I-I-I'm sorry! I was trying, I really was!" Jesse says as he starts panicking.
"Sorry doesn't save your comrades or your own sorry ass." The other growls back looking more pissed off by the second.
"I'm-" Jesse was about to say 'sorry' again but was cut off with, "Words don't save lives, save your worthless breath."
Jesse backs away a little, Reyes following a moment later until Jesse has effectively backed himself against a wall. His commander grabbed him by the collar of his shirt, easily lifting him off the ground. "Even a child can shoot better than you." He spat at the younger.
"I-I-I," Jesse repeats over and over as his breathing quickens, not knowing what he was trying to say but wanted to respond. Reyes stare petrified him.
"How long?" Reyes starts, "How long until you can shoot a damn target? If you were ever put on a mission everyone would die, or you would try and be a hero and die alone." The man's voice had risen to blatant yelling despite he was right next to who he was talking to. It drew other's attention, watching the kid being beaten down by Reyes once again.
Jesse, meanwhile, was in a mini panic attack the whole time, afraid of being hit and wanting to curl up and disappear. The dam betrayed him long ago as his face is stained with tears just wanting to get away from the older.
"What kind of cowboy can't shoot his target, hot shot?" He growls as he drops Jesse to the floor and storms out. Jesse crumpled into himself on the floor in his mini freak out.
Ana happened to be passing by the doorway when she saw the Blackwatch commander storming out, the entire training field gone quiet, "Oh dear," She mutters as she rushes in, "He's done it again, poor kid."
She kneels down by Jesse, putting his head in her lap trying to comfort him. "Shh, shh, darling. You're okay, just breathe. Gabriel left."
When he calmed down enough he sat up and hugged Ana "I really don't deserve you." He says.
"Hush cowboy, everyone deserves a little love every once and awhile from their mamma."

God dang it, I love Ana as a mother figure, screeeeeeech. I did this off the top of my head and might do a similar one but minus our beloved Ana mom.
