When they arrived at the range she smiled as she saw all the weapons available to shoot, He picked up a few, inspecting the mechanisms and looking down each of the sights. She did notice they only had one Iseltov Weapon, an IA-7. She took it and wrapped it around her shoulder while also taking a box of its bullets. She was going to try out two of the rifles, She picked one out that was labeled as the G3 Rifle. After loading each of the rifles she went to booth where ear muffs were provided, she however had no need of them, she had already trained her ears for the noise during the war. First she would try the G3 and then take up Harry's Challenge. Aleva readied it and shot a few rounds into the target. Heavy, accurate and powerful though, a bullets are good. Some other males at the range looked at her oddly, surprised that a woman actually entered in an just shot a few rounds.

She however soon put it back and then took up harry on that challenge with the IA-7 Bolt Action Rifle she had.

She asked, "50 or 100 meters?"

Sorry guys, I have been out a while doing football stuffs. ()

The Christstani men were intrigued when the woman said she new warfare. In Christstan it was unthinkable of a woman to defend a nation, for in defending a nation, a woman would in effect be defending men which was sorely against the National Christstany party, and the Emperor's Ideology. He said nothing, simply bowed to the room and the men left. (this to catch up with you guys.)

An instructor made his way over to the firing range, it was a Saturday but he enjoyed shooting none-the-less. He is the University's Firearms and Weaponry Professor, he is still technically a marksmanship instructor for the Christstani Army, but has not been on active duty in years. The man walked over in his regulation training shirt (a simple brown t-shirt with an Imperial Eagle over the right pectoral) and black combat pants. It was rare to see him outside of his Major's uniform but since it was a weekend he was not expecting anyone.

He eyed the two students at the range, at first he dismissed them as the usual rabble but then noticed one was not only not a Chirststani, but also a woman. He was outraged but when he realized she was foreign he decided not to say much as long as she did not stir up more women to follow her. The University had instructed its staff to understand the differences from foreign people and look over them as long as they did not attract attention to themselves about their major differences.

He walked behind the two and merely looked on, Major Karl Braus was not one to say much without first observing.

ooc: It's alright, by the way I don't think you know what an IA-7 is, it's an Ozian 5 shot Bolt Action rifle, Pretty common along with the I-19 but I didn't think the shooting range would carry such weapons. If the teacher has any idea of Ozian culture he would know Admivi is equivalent to a High Ranking Officer that would Command a whole Legion, unit, or Army

IC: Aleva took the IA-7 into the booth and loaded the rifle with the bullets. They were Ozian manufacture which pleased her, She closed the hammer and began to fire the 50 shots into the target. When they brought back the target sheet there was a distance difference for each impact of a small Currency coin. She exited the booth with her sheet and the rifle, she returned the rifle to its place and then saw a Christani man looking at her, he probably was watching her, she asked him in broken Christani, "You watch correct? My name is Admivi Aleva Sezen Iseltov, Are you what they say teacher?"

Harry kept shaking his head when he saw the target sheets between himself and Aleva. "Damn." She is good. He chuckled to himself. He saw Aleva talking to a teacher. He put his rifle back and walked up to her and the teacher. he shook the teacher's hand "Professor Braus, Harry Rommel. This woman is one hell of a soldier. Give me a thousand like her and I could conquer the world." He turned to Aleva. "Next time we need to try sword-fighting. You might not beat as well as you did here."

Aleva giggled at herself and spoke in Inglish, "I'm sure 1000 of me would argue with each other, but if you're looking for great fighters, Fre'zhi are the best, I also play by a different rule of swording than other cultures do, not sure if it would fit. You see in Ozia there's no such thing as "Respectable Wars" We've grown up in harsh environments enough that we know if the enemy doesn't kill you the Desert will."

Major Braus was shocked. A woman with this kind of a shot? He had never seen it before, he knew that women's arms were more steady than a man's (as proven by the few feminists who once operated in Christstan) but he had never seen a woman who had actually trained in weaponry. He was almost insulted. For her to shoot on Christstani ground was to insult hundreds of years of culture and female repression. He scoffed and watched the two. When she approached him he cocked one of his eye brows up at her and listened as she spoke in terrible Christstani. "Yes I am the range instructor." He said this quickly and curtly. He did not want to bring up the point that the Weaponry class was made up entirely of males, they had never forbidden the class to women for no woman ever applied for it. He looked to the young man, his accent gave him to be a Canadian but he had distinct Christstani features. The professor almost scoffed when he said she would make a fine soldier. He quickly replied "A good shot does not mean a good soldier. Strength, endurance, Loyalty, and clear mindedness in battle make a good soldier. A Christstani man knows this to be true." The professor broke off into a quiet monologue about a soldier and the state, the one he recited at training camps. He was almost brought to tears in nationalistic vigor, but then stopped himself and looked at the range. "Be careful, I'm sure no acts of violence shall be committed on Christstani grounds, but if you wish to duel, Christstan has laws regarding lawful duels, even to the death."

With that the major continued walking down the range, not wishing to show any more disgust at the blatant infraction of Christstani culture.

Aleva eyed the instructor, his arrogance in his tone was insulting, however this was not a good reason to waste a good bottle of Polonium on this one man's drink, other men at the range were equally offended by her shot, in Ozian she muttered under her breath "Esanzi la'ieva..." (Spiritless Swines...)

Eying her watch she spoke to Harry, "It's getting close to your class time, I'll see you later then."

She dropped the IA-7 back onto the shelf and walked out of the range back to the dorm room. As she walked out she spotted the instructor with her maroon eyes again, he looking irked as ever. She thought to herself, Strength, Endurance, Loyalty, and a Clear Mind mean nothing in the face of a bullet. He's only been on one side of the gun, how could he ever know?

Harry nodded. "I will see you later then. Perhaps you can teach me to be a better shot." As he walked away, Harry was very displeased with the professor. That is no way to talk to someone. Some Christstani need to understand other cultures and that women can make great soldiers. I would have thought the South Continental Wars would have taught him that. Harry was a stout monarchist, at least in his own country, but he began to sympathize that perhaps Christstan needs to change. He sat in his class and listened to another long lecture of Christstani history.

Aleva arrived at the food hall after her class ended for dinner. She was eager to try some new foods but even then she still had some Zuavka to put in her water. During the wars she only ever ate Zuavka, now it felt odd not to eat zuavka or drinka Zuavka mixed drink. She found a seat at a booth where she sat alone. She got herself some bread and some sort of fruit dish. She got a glass of water and poured her mailed in Ozian Manufactured Zuavka packet into the water. Instantly it turned a foggy and milky gray-brown color after she stirred it. She was very delighted of all the new foods especially the fruits which were exotic to her at first. They were watery and sweet, something she never tasted in a long time. The bread, even though a little dull in her homeland, was even different. Then she thought, Probably the lack of Sand...
