Frienemies

Cori turned back and took aim again. There was a burst of neon blue paint square in the center of the scarecrow's chest. Alright! She was getting better! Why, she hadn't even had to pull the trigger...

A second neon blue burst erupted at the scarecrow's crotch. Cori looked at her gun, mystified, before realizing what had happened and turning around.

Two Kappa Magna sisters had their own paintball guns pointed at the scarecrow as they admired their handiwork. Their paintball guns were blue, matching their chapter colors. Cori didn't like Kappa Magna girls. They were condescending, athletic, and they never invited Cori to their parties.

"Hey Cor, based on your spread pattern we figured you could use a little help" said one of the girls.

"Then again, given your aim it looks like you'll be spreading more than your shots tomorrow night. You know, some girls just give it up to the first Monster they see. You could do that! Then people won't know how bad of a shot you are, they'll just think you are easy" added the second in mock sympathy.

"I don't need your help" grumbled Cori as she turned back and raised her paintball gun for another shot...

...which somehow ended up hitting the grass in front of the scarecrow.

She refused to turn around as the Kappa Magna sisters left. She was glad that she couldn't make out what they were saying over their laughter.
