The Word.
Ok, im here
finally
good
lets get started then!
Right, well these three weeks, PE got alot more fun! Guess what ppl, we got to go and play PAINTBALL! yes i know! for free! amazing yes?! AHHA i guess im lucky i didnt get put into laser quest, its not the same really. Paintball is more fun! i feel like righting a compo on paintball:
GO! That single word echoed through me as i rushed for the safety of an old barrel. or so I thought. The moment I was behind the cylinderical hope of cover, i heard the distinct whiz of paintballs just missing their mark. Then, a sharp thud as the barrel was hit with one of those fatal shots. I risked a peek. There, just behind the enemy line, I spotted my enemy. Make that two enemies! i knew my chances were slim, but I had to try! I leaned towards my right and spied an opening. Fast as a fast paintball shooter, several shots went flying towards the distance, flying wildly. But then, i managed to get a hold of myself, and my aim was true. I watched in expectation as I followed the beautiful arc the paintball made, soaring, slicing through the air. Then, SPLAT! I yelled with glee. HEADSHOT!
Yes! With the ememies momentary distraction, I dived forwards out of the safety of my freind the barrel. Crouched behind a baricade, it was only that much easier to see what my main goal was. A small, insignificant cone, perched atop a wall. I fired a few shots in rapid succession. But then , I learnt something new. No, real life was not like computer games. Mostly, the shots flew randomly. I would normally blame the wind, blame the gun, blame the lousy mask, but I decided that there was a time for everything.
In that instant, I witnessed an awesome feat. My comrade was dead accurate, and that cone stood no chance against the awesome 92 meters per second speed of the paintball. Poof! The cone was no more. All we had to do now was secure our flag near enemy teritory, but could we do it? I wasnt sure. But in that moment, my question was answered. I spotted a creeping shadow, crawling towards the bridge that seperated the two opposing sides. In less than a short time, the flag was up and flying high! even though it was barely 20 cm tall.
Back back! we all yelled! victory was close. Oh so close. I ran in unison with my team, hoping not to get an angry nip in the butt from some stray shot. But finally, the 30 meter run was over. The war was over! we had won! VICTORY! oh yeah! we own. alot.
The end.
WOW that was a nice compo =) but now, its like, almost 1 am so i want to sleep .
BYE! hope you enjoyed that master piece of words =) I might reserve the not so glorious parts for another time. hehe =p
