I look out the window, it's raining pretty hard. It's getting darker, Levi rolling around on the floor... He stops when I get up, go to the wall, and hang a bounty poster up.
A bounty I've gotten a while ago, but why not a little knife throwing practice?
I walk a good distance away from the piece of paper, then get in a ready position. I quickly grab one of my knifes and throw it as hard and fast as I can. It goes right to the pictures head.
I sigh, I remember learning to do this. It being so fun and a good way to kill time. But now that I can almost do this without any imperfections is boring... Maybe I need to learn a trick, maybe I should look around for tricks... The saloon always has reckless people...
(Later at the saloon)
I make it to the saloon, Levi's muzzle already on. We walk in and look around the over populated saloon, people playing five finger fillet. Drinking contests and gambling...
I finally see the people I'm looking for, practicing what I was doing at home. Throwing knifes at bounty posters or random people. Them being pretty good, but one trick catches my eyes.
One of the men throwing the knife, it goes in a small curve to the picture. (Like a curve ball in baseball)
I'm in woah for a second then walk over to them. Then already wondering what a lady's doing with them.
"Get lost lady," "bet she can't even throw a knife." Another man buds in, making my blood boil.
I whip my own throwing knife out and throw it right beside where the other knifes are, then look to them. "I want to learn some new tricks, it's getting boring doing this.... Can you teach me some?"
They nod then think for a moment, hopefully they don't give me something to easy. "What about adding a spin?" I give him a questioning look.
"L-Like adding a nice spin on it, making it go faster!" I grab out another knife and do exactly what he said, a good spin on it. Then it digs in the wall with one last thud. "Ok then... What about the curve I was just doing?"
I happily nod then watch his small demonstration, "You want to add a good a perfect flick of the wrist, it'll help start the curve." I nod. I finally try it, I try but end up throwing it way across the saloon. Almost hitting multiple people.
"S-Sorry!" I run to the knife in the wall then pull all my knifes out, then go to the one way far away. I pull it out then look down at Levi.
"Let's go try this outside." We walk out of the saloon, I take his muzzle off then walk around the saloon. We make it to the back, I place a bottle right where I wanna hit. "I'm gonna do this if it takes my whole damn life..." I mutter to myself then start my long practice. Hours and hours of throwing the knife everywhere except the bottle, this is gonna take a long while...
{Hours later}
The day turned to night almost instantly, it hardly being able to see the bottle anymore. I guess I should go home and get some rest....
I put my knifes back then look around for Levi, no where... "Levi!" I walk around calling for him. "Levi! Come here!" I turn a corner then see Levi scratching at a wall while look up, I look up the building seeing a large figure just staring at him.
"Hey!" The figures quickly looks to me then runs off.
"Ugh. Come on Levi." He looks to me then calms down, we walk to the front of the saloon. I hop on Kira making my way home, hopefully that stupid Charles guy isn't nearby... He gives me weird chills...After a couple minutes of riding we make it home, as soon as I walk in it's like a magnet to metal... but me to my bed.
I flop on, my eyes getting heavier, the fluffy pillow and blanket so comforting. My eyes close and in almost the flick of a finger it's day again, birds chirping and Levi whining to go outside. I get up lately and let him out, he runs out and goes to do whatever.
