Alexander's POV
"Pa!"

Phillip barged into my office rambling on about something.

"Slow down. What do you need?"
"I need advice. I challenged George Eacker to a duel."

He did what now?!

"Phillip-"
"I know it was irresponsible, but what do I do?"

"Well you can't afford to kill him-"

I paused for a moment to think.
Normally in this situation you'd aim at the sky. But Eacker isn't a man of honor so he won't follow suit.

Wait- That's IT!

"Aim at his feet."
"Wha-?"
"Normally you'd aim at the sky, but in this case that's a bad idea. Aim at his feet. That way you won't kill him with the shot, just injure him."

He nodded.

Phillip's POV
After speaking with my father I ran to Theo's house. I knocked on the door and she answered.

"Hey Phillip."
"He Theo. I have to go somewhere but I need to ask you something when I get back ok?

She raised an eyebrow. "Ok?"

I pulled her in to a kiss. "Love you."
"Love you too."

And with that I grabbed what I needed and went to meet George for the duel.
