James took a deep breath and slowly released it, relaxing as he sighted down the rifle's scope. He expertly tuned out the surrounding sounds and carefully lined up on his target; his finger resting against the trigger guard until he was ready. Waiting until the perfect moment before he squeezed off the shot.

James held out his hand for the begrudged prize and enjoyed Steff kissing him soundly when he handed her the soft toy.

James found this a far better use of his skills, but knew the next time he pulled the trigger, it wouldn't be at a fair.

Great one. But I do hope he doesn't have to use these skills for real.

Ha, I love him concentrating so carefully at a fair! He would. :) But the ending is a bit ominous.
