Weapons And How To Use Them

Scarlett took both the omegas to the weapon room. "Come in, " She said as she opened the door. "It's been a long time since I last came here. This is the first time I step in here after Keiran took charge as the Alpha, so that makes it almost two years, " She looked around.


The omegas were both awestruck and amused as they saw the collection of knives, guns, and swords. Rain softly touched the shiny blades but quickly retreated because he was afraid of being hurt by them.


" There should be more, I think the pack warriors took it for training," Scarlett muttered as she walked towards the knife section.


The room was pretty huge and the only thing in there were open shelves that had different knives and guns.


'And Scarlett said there's more?'


Evelyn gulped as she thought about it.


" Hey, guys…What are you all doing here? " They all turned to see Josh staring at them from the doorway.


"Hey, Josh!" Rain chirped happily. "We came to see the weapons," He skipped towards the beta who ruffled his soft blonde hair.


"I brought them here because I wanted to teach Evelyn about the weapons," Scarlet replied to the beta who smiled.


"That's a good idea. I'll help, " He offered before walking towards them.


"We're starting with the knife section because it's my favorite," Scarlett's excitement was slipping through her voice as she spoke.


She took out a knife from the shelf and held it in front of Evelyn. "This is a bowie knife, very sharp and fancy. I've always liked this," Scarlett explained before giving it to the omega. Evelyn stared at the knife and slowly ran her fingers and on the blade, being conscious of not hurting herself. The blade was shiny and it was double-edged at the point.


"Next up is a push dagger," A small blade with a 'T'-style handle was held in front of the omega.


"Why is the handle like this?" She questioned, looking at the small dagger.


"It's like that so you can grip it in the palm of your hand," Josh took the knife from the omega. "Like this," He showed Evelyn as he put the knife in his palm resulting in the blade protruding from the front of his fist between his fingers.


"That's cool, put it in my palm too! " Rain chirped, making Josh chuckle.


The beta turned to the excited boy and taught him how to grip the knife.


"It's actually really advantageous if you know how to hide it properly," Scarlett said, taking another set of similar blades from the shelf. "These are some bigger and fancier versions of the push dagger, " The former Luna said, showing the omega some push daggers with long blades and eye-catching designs.


"I really like this….can I keep it? " Rain titled his head, giving puppy eyes to the beta.


Josh laughed and ruffled the omega's hair again. " You can't, it's not allowed to keep weapons in the Packhouse, " The rejection made the omega pout.


"I'll show you something else, " Josh muttered before pulling out a box from the top shelf. "These are ninja throw blades and daggers, " He said excitedly, opening the box to reveal star-shaped blades and some black daggers.


"They're beautiful," Evelyn breathed out, looking at the fancy looking blades and daggers.


"Yes, they are. These are a new addition to the weapons. We're all still trying to master it," He said before he pointed to a door in the corner of the room. "That's our practice room. Do you wanna go in there?"


"Yes," Rain was the most excited in the group. The omega loved to see and experience new things.


"Come on," Josh smiled before he walked to the room with the box of blades and daggers.


The practice room was really big. It seemed like a hall for practicing archery, gun shoot, and knife throw since there were a lot of targets.


"This is the knife throwing section," Josh pointed with his elbow before he put the box on top of a small round table on the left side of the hall. "That's the gun practice section," He pointed to the right side.


"But I never heard gunshots from here," Rain tilted his head. "Guns are loud, aren't they?" The omega fought a frown, confused.


"This room is soundproof," Josh said as he took out the blades. Scarlett was lazily walking around the room while Evelyn looked at all the things with amusement shining in her bright green eyes. "No one knows we practice guns. We only started using guns forty years ago and that was because the hunters were using this technology against us. We couldn't fight them only in our wolf forms," The beta said, neatly placing the daggers and blades on the table.


"Hunters….." Evelyn muttered, the word rolling out of her tongue leaving a bitter taste.


"Who's hunters?" Rain asked before flopping down on one of the chairs.


"Hunters are humans or sometimes other supernatural beings like us, " Scarlett started, "Humans were the first ones known as hunters. They used to hunt us and other supernatural beings like us because they were afraid of our power but that changed long ago. Now, hunters include humans, vampires, and even werewolves. They're a group of people who kill and attack people when they are offered money for the job." Scarlett heaved a sigh. "Hunter attacks are surprising which gives us no time to prepare or plan anything. This causes most of the Packs to lose a lot of warriors."


"Why are their attacks surprising? I mean, we have a lot of warriors guarding the borders," Evelyn frowned.


"The guards are not enough, my dear. Hunters….they are mysterious. Nobody can tell when they're going to attack us……. There's only a small chance that we'll know before they come," Scarlett smiled a tight-lipped smile.


"I'm scared," Rain muttered, his bottom lip jutting out.


Scarlett cooed at the adorable boy. "You don't have to be scared, my boy. Since our Pack is really strong, nothing bad will happen." She ruffled the omega's hair.


"Luna, come look at this," The beta called Evelyn while he took a kunai knife. Josh gripped the knife and stepped back a little, his eyes focusing on the target for a few seconds before he threw the knife in a swift movement. The knife hit on the first red circle. "Sh*t! Why can't I hit the yellow circle till now?" Josh grumbled.


"But that was so cool! Show it again! " Rain jumped from his seat.


Evelyn watched closely as the beta took the knife again and threw it. This time the knife hit the second red circle, making the warrior smile. "I think I'm improving,"


"Can-can I try it? " Evelyn asked, a little unsure.


"Yeah sure," Josh gave her a small smile before giving a knife to the omega. " Choose the hand you're more experienced in and take a position you're comfortable with," He instructed.


Evelyn nodded and took the knife from the beta. She put her left leg back and took a deep breath, eyes focusing on the target. The omega bit her lips as she moved her wrist and threw the knife.


"Wha-How? That's wow… " Josh stuttered, blown away by what just happened.


Evelyn frowned before she once again focused on the target.


The knife was there in the middle of the target inside the yellow circle.


The omega smiled and turned to face the three shocked faces. "I used to throw stones at fruits when I was in the forest," She smiled, but they were just staring at her with their eyes ever so wide...
