MUNCH'S POV {Haven't seen this in awhile}

I load the laser gun and aim it.

"You know to shoot you got to press the trigger. Right?" Tuck asks.

"I know, just scared," I reply. Jackson comes by and looks at me.

"You can't be scared. This is a war. Close your eyes press the trigger. Done. It ain't hard. Then you'll feel good," she explains and walks away.

Why is Alex dating her again?

I did exactly she said and hit the outer corner.

"Not bad, but the target is center," Alex comments and I chuckle.

"Let's see what you got," I tell him. He nods and loads his gun.

He aims and hits bullseye.

Shit...

"It's not hard," he tells me. I nod and try again.

I hit closer to bullseye.

"See?" He tells me. I smile and nod.

He walks to Jackson and talks with her.

ALEX'S POV:

Do you have a better plan?" I ask Jackson.

She makes little bullets which contained whatever.

"Nope," she says simply.

I roll my eyes and look at the time.

Twelve o'clock.

"I have to go," I tell her. She looks up at me confused.

"Why? We have to train for this. We can't let them take over our planet," she snaps.

"Because I have stuff to do," I reply and grab my jacket. She follows me.

"What stuff?" Jack asks.

"Don't worry bout it," I reply.

"I'll come with you then," she says.

"I'm just going to the cliff. I have to do something there," I tell her the truth. Her eyes widen.

"Those things are alive! Are you crazy?!" She yells.

"No, but I just going to investigate," i explain.

"Fine," she says and walks back into the lab.

I walk out to my car an got in. I start it and head to the cliffs.

I see two other cars and park a distant away. I hide behind one of the cars and try to listen.

"The kids think there's an attack," I hear Gary's voice.

"What they don't know is this is for bigger ways," Gigi's voice comes up.

"Great job. Now, use their fears against them. I already handle Jackson. She probably will still freak out if she sees me again. But this time, the same way her dream was. These fears will kill these kids," a woman's voice is spoken.

Our fears?

Oh shit....

"These kids won't know what hit them. All Jackson needs to see is me. Once she does, she'll realize what's coming next. Her death," she continues.
