"I mean," I said, sounding very mature, "You have to respect this kind of thing. They're not toys..." My eyes went wide as i trailed off and gaped at the wall. The long thin Katana-like sword was perfectly smooth, and deep, almost black green- Lignum vitae- the wood of life, and the hardest, toughest wood known. I lost contact with the rest of the world, just gazing at the beautiful weapon. I took it carefully from the wall, and held it- it was perfectly balanced, as if made for me. I'm in love. I thought.

"Ooo," I crooned mockingly, looking at Nicki with a knowing grin on my face, matched by her own, "Someone's in loooooove!"
Maya turned and glared daggers at me, and then returned to staring at the katana-shaped boken. I almost felt jealous. Then I took another look at the polearms Doc and his friend had gathered not too far from the bokens.

"Those, I found in a tomb in Japan," I said to Maya. "Training sword only supposdly, unless you take the points and edges into account. I think they belonged to a Slayer. I'm not entirely sure though. And if you think this stuff's impressive, I'm testing a rail gun for the military. It's in the vault downstairs."

"Vault?" me, Nicki, Maya, and the English Whistler(Tpot) all cried together, sounding eager if I'm any sort of judge.
Doc chuckled and shared a look with his friend Des before nodding his head and gesturing down a hall that none of us had noticed yet. "Come on, let me show you all my toys," he chuckled again.

Owned by a slayer... i thought. It would make sense. I slid the sword into its sheath and tied it to my belt,
"Big weapons are good." I said, "But i'll stick with this any day." I considered, "Unless of course a rocket laucher is absolutely necessary."

I winced
'No. No rocket launchers. One has had bad experience with rocket launchers in the past, would not like to relive it at any cost' I carefully lifted the crossbow from the wall 'This however is an experience I would like. Lots'

Maya and I gave the purple haired girl sick, and concerned looks. "I hope you aren't serious," I said for my part.
Maya seemed to be conveying her message of disgust via telepathy however, and I was glad that I wasn't hearing it for once.

'Aw guys!' I cooed 'You don't hafta be so concerned! It was an accident a long time ago when my dad went on this "Let's train the girls how to fight with weapons" kick and he brought out this really old launcher from eons ago. Cut a long story short, it exploded and I nearly lost a hand, an eye and my big toe' I smiled wistfully 'My mum never did let my dad near weapons again'

"I was actually more concerned about the latter half of your statement, which I think we all took to mean that you would enjoy, lots, being shot with crossbows." I explained my concern and disgust.

I burst out laughing and shook my head
'Uh no, I meant in a shooting at others experience. Not being shot at! That's just weird'

"You're telling me?" I asked, sounding like it was the dumbest, most obvious-answered question in the entire universe.
"You've got rocket launchers?" I finally turned and asked Doc after suddenly getting over my disturbance at Nicki's statement.

"Sub vault... 3 I think," I said. They all gaped at me, except Des, who was obviously enjoying this. "Master lee told me about this huge amount of space under the Dojo. I decided to use. Well, I did get a soircerer friend of mine to turn the vault sections into tesseracts. I've got a lot of things that need to be kept safe."

"I'm not sure I want to know," I mumbled, when Des interrupted me, "Trust me boy, ya don't."
