6:01pm.
“Alright Jerry, we gotta climb up to the roof to do this. You aren’t THAT weak to not be able to do that, right?” Jerrie snorts, poking fun at him even during times like this.
They were at Butler Farm Show Grounds, Pennsylvania… and also about to attempt to shoot down Donald Trump. It has been a few weeks after the lockdown, Jerrie is unable to do the job herself since her arm is still weirdly animal like.
…
So, it’s up to Jerry to do this.
He’s nervous, obviously. Who wouldn’t be when they are about to attempt to assassinate the president? Whatever.
They’ve climbed up to the roof. Staring down at the crowd alongside their target. AR-15 pattern rifle in his sweaty hands, Jerry finds a position to crouch down and fire.
He inspects the crowd, quickly being able to find the bright orange mole rat-like creature since he definitely stood out.
The target is ranting about something shitty. Jerry couldn’t care enough nor could he hear it, but it’d probably be something about computers starting to become sentient and that men will be replaced by them by 2050.. that’s most likely true.
He gulps, anxiously. “I-I Jerrie, I can’t do this…” Jerry whispers, trying to not get seen.
“WHAT!?!” Jerrie yells yet also whispers at the same time. “Think of the queer’s Jerry.” Placing a hand in his shoulder and reassuring him (??)
“Think of me and ammonite… and also you, you’re a bit of a faggot too.”
…that’s true…
Jerry stares blankly at her. “Uhm… okay…” shaking, Jerry aims at the tangerine man, this would be a headshot. His aim was concentrated, he has one shot at this, literally. there’s only one bullet in the damn thing..
He places a finger on the trigger, rechecking for.. the 7th time if he was aimed well. Jerry whispers nervously. “…this is for the gays..” he doesn’t fire yet. “-and Jerrie…”
He shoots, the target turns right at the last second and the bullet grazes his ear.
… first there was silence, then screaming and yelling. Some crying was also included.
“Oh.”
“Oh..” Jerry sighs.
Jerrie finally speaks after a few minutes of silence. “OH MY FUCKING SHINYGRIFFIN JERRY YOU MISSED, YOU DUMBFUCK.” She shouts, full of rage. Usual Jerrie!
Jerry’s probably gonna get beaten after this.
