The sun was setting on the base, and training was over for the day. Most of the soldiers had already eaten and retired to their living quarters, knowing the next day would be full of more training and hard work. A small group of them stayed in the dining hall, playing poker for quarters and drinking a case of beer one of them had picked up in town.
Outside, you could see a bunch of fruit lined up on the fence, glowing in the evening light. Eddie had his tongue hanging slightly out of the corner of his mouth, and he was aiming at the orange. He had already taken down a watermelon. He was doing better with his aim since Coco had given him the pointers. He breathed in through his nose and slowly let the air out of his mouth before pulling the trigger. He lifted his head just as it hit the orange, exploding it from the center. Eddie smiled proudly, moving over so Sean could wheel up and take a shot.
Sean held the gun up, no longer needing Eddieâs help with it. He went through the steps, lining the shot up, focusing, and then pulling the trigger. He looked up as the bullet grazed the side of a grapefruit and watched as it spun in wild circles before falling to the ground and bouncing through the sand.
Eddie slapped Sean hard on the shoulder. âItâs all right, buddy. You can always get a good job in a grocery store. You can explain to old ladies how to peel a grapefruit.â
Sean rolled his eyes. âAt least I hit it without the assistance of a demon.â
Eddie chuckled. âI am not ashamed in the least, and you shouldnât be either when I shoot that demon who is chasing you around the base in your wheelchair.â
Sean leaned his head back and laughed. âOkay, so he helps you with your shots. Thatâs great. Shouldnât you already be good with that? The rest of the guys are. The only way your demon would be fierce is if someone pulled it out of you and tossed it back in the pregnant woman. She straight scared the living shit out of about forty highly-trained military personnel, some black ops, and some Damned.â
Eddie fake-laughed. âYou keep at it. Wait until you get a demon. Watch it be a demon in a fucking wheelchair. In fact, Iâm half-tempted to cut oneâs legs off and toss him inside you. The invalid leading the invalid.â
Sean smiled. âI could probably still outrun you.â
Eddie laughed, shaking his head. âIâd fucking roll this wheelchair right off a cliff, my friend. You better hope your demon has wings.â
Sean smirked. âIâm pretty sure the one who saved your ass more than once did.â
Eddie threw his head back. âOhhhh, Seanâs got jokes.â
They laughed, slapping hands and looking out at the sunset. Eddie sat down next to him and let out a deep breath. Just then, Brock and Turner walked out onto the roof. Turner smacked Eddie in the back of the head and roughed up Seanâs hair.
