I try hard not to laugh. Unfortunately though, I gave Xavier the exact opportunity he's been waiting for. Without flinching, he takes aim. He fires, and I barely have enough time to duck. I can hear as he begins to make his way up the silo. No where to hide, I stand up at the far end of the silo, waiting for Xavier to approach. The sound of him climbing unwavering, I get ready for his head to appear at any moment. Before I realize what's happened, I feel a sharp pain in my chest. I look down to see a purple dot over my chest. I ben my head down in defeat, and wait as Xavier makes his way up.
To my surprise, Jax climbs up the ladder.
