Alloy Girl Volume 31: On Point
Chapter 1: The Range Day
The expansive grounds of the Clark Royal Family® estate were transformed into a tactical training ground. Princess Charlotte, ever the enthusiast, was eager to showcase her skills with the L3Harris fairy sniper rifle she'd received as a recent birthday gift.
Scene: With the crack of gunfire, Charlotte's shots found their marks on the distant targets. "Not bad for a princess," she grinned, turning to her parents.
Alloy Girl, her eyes filled with pride, replied, "You're a natural, Charlotte. Remember, precision is key."
Chapter 2: A Family Affair
Joining Charlotte were her brothers, King Harley and Prince George, each armed with their own L3Harris-designed weapons. Royal Emerill, the youngest, watched with wide eyes, eager to join the fun when he was old enough.
Scene: Hit Girl, ever the instructor, guided the children through various drills, emphasizing safety and control. "Remember, these are tools, not toys," she reminded them.
Chapter 3: A Friendly Debate
Suddenly, a holographic communication appeared, connecting them to Bill Gates.
Scene: "I'm hearing you're having a family target practice," Bill said, his voice filled with amusement. "Mind if I join?"
Alloy Girl hesitated. "Bill, I know you're part of I7, but..."
Bill understood her hesitation. "I get it. I'm not comfortable with guns. But I'd love to watch from a distance."
Alloy Girl nodded. "Of course. But remember, these are not toys. They're tools for protection."
Chapter 4: A Call for Peace
As they watched the children practice, Abigail and Bill engaged in a conversation about the ongoing transition from CIA to I7.
Scene: Abigail expressed her concern about the perception of I7 as a militaristic force. "We need to emphasize our commitment to peace," she said.
Bill agreed. "The world needs to understand that I7 is about prevention, not aggression. We're a force for good."
Chapter 5: The Power of Words
Abigail turned to her children, who were now taking a break. "Remember, the greatest power you possess is not your weapons, but your words. Use them wisely to promote peace and understanding."
The children nodded, their faces filled with determination.
Chapter 6: A Plea for Safety
Abigail then turned to Bill. "And while we're on the topic of power, there's something else I want to discuss. TerraPower..."
Bill's expression turned serious. "I know what you're going to say, Abigail. I've been thinking about it too."
"We need to shut it down," Abigail said firmly. "The risks of nuclear power far outweigh the potential benefits. The New Green Grid offers a safer, cleaner alternative."
Bill nodded. "I agree. I'll draft a statement, outlining the dangers and advocating for its closure."
As the sun began to set, casting long shadows over the training ground, Alloy Girl and Hit Girl watched their children with pride. They had raised a generation of young heroes, capable of defending themselves and their world. And that, they knew, was the greatest legacy they could leave behind.
