* Ali simply dropped the 43 lbs heavy machine gun into her one hand, something that would probably result in her falling down because of the sudden weight. Afterwards Ali simply pointed at a couple of beer bottles placed at different ranges, folding his arms afterwards.* Pull that small lever on the side there and flick that little pin next to the trigger down, then aim and shoot.

When he dropped the much more heavy than anticipated weapon in her hand, she jolted forward, catching it with her other hand, nearly losing her balance. Now, very awake, she tried to sort out how to hold it, let alone keep balanced.
Watching Ali somewhat as she continued to examine the weapon, she had a vague understanding of how handguns worked but had no idea how to hold such a large weapon. Immediately she removed the safety and then touched the trigger which sent several shots wildly in to the air - away from camp, thankfully. She then replaced the safety, realizing that it was a device to halt the shooting action, and looked at Ali with question, slightly in disbelief that he would expect her to know what to do with it without instruction. "How should one hold this to effectively shoot?"

Tightly and with the weapon barrel pointed away from yourself* When she fired the gun Ali actually dove into cover, the same cover where he was hiding behind right now.*

She sighed and held the weapon downward, showing her frustration. "Now is not the time to crack wise. I have held a hand gun before, I know not how to hold this .. surely there is a more appropriate way to hold this to be able to reach the desired target rather than .. nothing." she said with a small huff, tempted to simply drop it and go home.

* Ali snickered a bit before he got out from his cover, walking up behind her and reaching under and over her arms so he could make sure she held it correctly. Moving her arms as well into the proper hold before placing his finger into hers on the trigger, keeping his mouth close to her ear.* Quick burst shots, keep the weapon like this and know that it will kind of kick you every time you pull the trigger. Even so hold it tightly and in the same way as now. Shoot the beer bottles.

She nodded as she listened to his instructions, moving herself to a position she felt would be strongest so that she would not fall over as she fired. She felt the kick back previously but did not know how to articulate this so she did not mention anything. "I see, thank you." she replied. Tilting her head a little, she thought about how she was holding this, memorized portions of the gun that would help her to know where to hold it when needing to shoot. Now feeling confident that she could use this contraption without causing trouble, she took the safety off again, aimed and fired. She stopped almost the instant she started - it would likely look to Ali as if she had intentionally used a short burst as directed, but she was upset with herself as her aim was off by nearly a foot to the bottle on the farthest side. Adjusting her aim, she fired again, this time hitting the can and again stopping almost immediately as she was shocked that she had hit it.

Good work, Now if you click that button there it will release the ammo clip and by simply pushing a new one up there and then pull that handle again, you've loaded it.* Ali smirked as he waved to his man, indicating that they should just start moving. He would follow after with Ziven. Walking behind the cover he had hid behind, he pulled up a even large machine gun and looked over at her.* You have five minutes to pack and carry your belongings as well as that weapon.

She nodded her head a bit as he gave final instructions, feeling that she had a well enough answer to continue with their mission and not cause problems. Again she nodded with his final instructions, she frowned slightly also. With the exception of the tent she slept in, she was already packed, everything she carried on her person - including the near 50 lbs of gun and accessories to make it use it. She took care of the few things she needed to before going - such as having her tea, whether anyone liked it or not, and was ready to go on time. Keeping to the edge of the group, she readied herself for the final stretch of travel and the battle that would surely follow. Though she was trying to be a good sport about all this and a team player, she still felt completely out of place and did not savor the idea of having a chat about her thoughts with anyone.

Hey Hank, this kinda looks like you mom* A soldier spoke with a slight laugh as he held up a mummified head for the rest of the group, so far they hadn't encountered a single scorpion. Ali stayed in the front of the group and were checking the two passageways before them with his flashlight while the soldiers joked and made sure they weren't attacked from behind, there were a lot of commotion as Hank clearly didn't like the joke as well. Eventually Ali spoke and once he did the jokes seized.* Stop your jabbering and behave like soldiers, Ziven come over here.

Ziven glanced at the guy who called out to hank, looking away with disinterest as she realized he was being rude to Hank. She did not comment, however, as she did not want to instigate anything nor encourage this guy by giving him the negative attention he was clearly seeking from the comment. When she heard Ali speak, she was grateful that he was doing so to stop their antics but was surprised that he then addressed her. Looking to him with mild shock, she made haste to his side. When she did, she looked to him with question but said nothing.

Choose a path* Ali gripped onto his machine gun a bit firmer as he awaited her answer, the other soldiers starting to move towards them as well and waiting. They knew it was time to split up.*

She looked at him for a moment, slightly surprised and confused that he would ask this of her. With a nod of her head, she inicated the path on the left.

* Ali looked over his shoulders afterwards at five of the soldiers, nodding his head at the right passage way afterwards. The five of them quickly began to walk down the right pathway while Ali began to move down the left with three other soldiers, slow and easy. better to take the scorpions by surprise rather then running around like wild men and alarming even rocks.*Shoot everything that has claws and moves.

"Aye." she replied softly as they began to move. Beginning to feel nervous, she took up her weapon, preparing for whatever may be around the bend, so to speak. This was nervewracking yet exciting - an odd combination in her mind.

* Ali came to a halt as he spotted a massive scorpion tail ahead, lifting up his right hand quickly as a sign to stop before returning it down, two soldiers turning around and aiming behind them just in case as the other soldier aimed forward and so should Ziven. A slight silent moment before the machine guns began to hammer out bullet after bullet at the creature, it's shriek loud enough to be heard through the sound of the machine guns. Ali then began to wonder, was Ziven shooting?*
