Calling it a Day

Back on Deck 36, a four-person group stepped through an automatic door with a wave goodbye. 

When the door closed, one of them passionately yelled, "I did it! I shot a rocket launcher, and it was awesome!"

"Hell yeah, it was. Talk about kick-back," Ayse laughed alongside his towering, reptilian brother. 

LaRee glanced at Ayse's plain black backpack. "Thank you for bringing Xit and Onia. I didn't think they would have targets for throwing weapons. But are you sure we can carry them with us?"

Ayse replied with a nod, "We can arm ourselves while on the cruiser. But we are allowed to securely transport most weapons. 

"It just means they can't be immediately used or accidentally go off. That's why I had you re-wrap the tomahawks. You could even carry a gun around. So long as it's in a locked carrying case with the magazine in a separate container."
