As new and towering creatures joind the never ending horde, the defenders used the new cannons to vaporize the newest threats. After hours of constant use, Cecile rushed to the crow’s nest and demanded that the gunners stop weilding the new weapons. Unfortunately, Jarvis pointed at the looming giants and swarming dragons, insisting the experimental guns were needed. However, the leader relents when Cecile states the weapons might explode with this constant use. Will any of the weapons detonate? Or will the defenders successfully rebuff the latest assault?
“Jarvis, order the teams to cease firing,” Cecile said, huffing as she leaned into the crow’s nest.
After a dragon’s neck and wing vaporized, Jarvis tipped his gun into the arms of his teammate and rushed to Cecile, gripping her shoulders. “We can’t stop using these weapons.”
Cecile ripped Jarvis’s hands from her and thumped his chest. “If you keep them running at this rate, they’ll blow up.”
The closest gunner dropped his cannon and backed away. “What did you say?!”
With a snap, Jarvis spun around. “Continue dealing with those dragons!” Jarvis pulled Cecile closer and closed her eyes. “I thought you fixed that problem.”
With a heavy sigh, she shoved her hands on her hips as her face drew into a point. “Unfortunately, continual use wasn’t part of my design.” She gripped the collar of his shirt and forced him to look at the cannons. “Stop overusing these guns!”
Jarvis pinched his nose as he shook his head. “What are the odds they’ll detonate?”
“Does it matter?!”
