Rachel's POV:
"Shoot like this," Logan grabbed the gun from my hand and too it in his.He loaded the gun and pointed it towards the stolen cardboard people police officers in training use.
"Alright so you just aim and focus," Logan muttered as he aimed the gun.
He shot three of the cardboard figures, hitting all three of them and knocking them down. I stood there in full shock and amazement as I watched.
"You see?" Logan smirked as he handed me the gun, "Your turn."
I took the gun nervously from his hands. He must've sensed that I was anxious.
"Don't be nervous, you'll do fine," he encouraged me.
In this moment I smiled, thinking of how lucky I was that Victor had assigned Logan to teach me how to use a gun. If it were any of his other men, they probably would've lost their patience with me and shot me down or something.
"Now aim for the guy with the ski mask," Logan instructed me.
I did as I was told, aiming for the cardboard burglar. I took a deep breath, the area completely silent as I focused on the burglar's head. I slowly pulled the trigger, shooting the cardboard directly in the head and knocking him over.
"I did it," I cheered as the cardboard fell to the ground.
"You're a natural," Logan chuckled before scratching his stubbled chin, "That's not really something you should be good at."
"Whatever," I rolled my eyes, "I freaking did it."
I patted myself on the back as Victor walked out from the shadows, clapping slowly.
"Well done," Victor smirked as he grabbed the gun from my hand, "I was right about you being able to handle yourself. I actually have a job for you to do soon. I will discuss it with you later on this week."
I nodded my head understandingly. I had no problem with this at the moment. I had come to terms with what I had gotten myself into and what I was going to have to step up and do. My life was on the line right now, and I was in no way going to do anything that would get me killed.
"Tomorrow I need you to meet someone," Victor informed me.
"Who does she need to meet," Logan butted in.
"Someone from the remaining Eleven Demons," Victor answered Logan.
Logan nodded his head slowly, asking no follow up questions. I stared back and forth between them before Victor walked away. I blew the hair strands out of my face, putting my hair in a ponytail.
"Keep practicing," Logan ordered me as he held his own gun out at me, "I'll be right back."
I nodded my head and grabbed the gun, taking it form his hand. He walked in the direction that Victor had left through previously. I turned towards the remaining cardboard people and lifted up the gun.
"Alright Rachel," I took a deep breath, "Just aim."
________________________________
Victor had taken me out of the shooting yard after hours of practice. Logan returned shortly after and instructed me on shooting fast and right.
"Keep the gun," Victor told me as he handed me the gun he had taken away from me earlier, "You'll need one of your own if you're going to be one of my shooters."
I hadn't noticed until now, but I was the only female shooter that Victor had. All the other shooters were men, young and old. The other females all worked in shipment and hacking. They did the inside work. The fact that I was the only female shooter gave me both an excitement and thrill yet also made me nervous.
