Warehouse Snowball Fight
At the back of the warehouse is a door to a room that V has never seen before. “What’s in the room?” V asks.
“This is the training room. Normally you would have spent about a month in here getting ready for your first assignment but the schedule didn’t allow it.
However, the real answer to your question is, Karl. She’s in here practicing.” Finn says.
They both enter the room and are instantly blinded by the blackness of the environment relative to the brightly lit room outside. As they stood there letting their eyes adjust to the darkness a snowball catches V squarely in the back of the head; flakes exploding down the back of his neck and shirt start to melt instantly.
“Just wait!” says V smiling a mischievous smile.
“Waiting.” comes a female voice drifting through the room from no distinct location.
Finn and V’s eyes gradually start to adjust to the low light and V motions to Finn for them to circle the room in opposite directions to capture Karl. Finn nods and they head off.
V takes about 3 steps before being pelted with 2 more snowballs.
He freezes in his tracks and tries not to make a sound.
Two more snowballs hit him.
“No fair!” V shouts. “I can’t see anything. How can you be hitting me with those snowballs?”
“Night vision goggles.” Came the 3 word reply.
“Oh.” Was all V could respond.
Then he remembered the flashlight he had in his cargo pants pocket. He bent down trying to mask his movement. Quickly he scooped 2 handfuls of snow into snowballs. Then he retrieved the flashlight from his pants pocket. With one finger on the flashlight switch and his other hand wrapped around a snowball he asks, “Where could I get a pair of those night vision goggles?”
“From the same place I did I suppose…the StuffedZoo supplies locker” Karl says casually. But the damage was done. V was able to get a bearing on her location.
The flashlight snaps on nailing Karl in its beam. Karl’s night vision goggles flood with the light and her world turns blank. Just as she rips them off her head the first snowball hits her square in the face. A second lands a fraction of a second later.
Throwing her hands in the air she shouts, “You win, you win!” Just as Finn shows up.
