"SURE!" he chirped, taking a bit of a false confident stride more in front of the target. Taking an extra several moments to make sure no one would be in the way....or anywhere remotely near where he was shooting, Derf took caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaareful aim and then let his arrow fly.

And fly it did. Up up up uuuuuuuuuuuuuuup and over the target and right smack into the wall with a dull thud.

So...er...that was 0 for him then.
Etta smiled as she watched the arrow zoom.... and hit the wall WAY over the target. Oh. She tried to stop herself from giggling as her eyes flicked towards the younger boy. Not laughing AT him, obviously buuuut he was so adorable.

"Well.... that wasn't bad. Your aim just needs to be better." Etta explained. "You'll have to focus on the target first." .... although she really was one to give advice when the girl couldn't even hold the bow properly. Ahem. She walked over to stand in front of her target, making sure she stood at the right distance. Holding the bow with her left hand, she picked an arrow with the other and carefully took aim. She concentrated for a few seconds and hoping that her aim was precise, Etta released the arrow.

..... and watched it hit the number 6. Uh, well. That was rather disappointing. "Wasn't very good, was it?"
