This wasn't going to work. Edna wasn't an idiot, she knew how good Trish's instincts were. If she tried to blast her point blank, Trish would easily dodge, beat her into the ground, and take the gun for herself. However, Edna's quick thinking allowed her to come up with a plan to use those instincts against Trish. If she feigned pulling the trigger and tricked Trish into dodging prematurely, then she would be able to readjust her aim and blast her mid-dodge. It was a risky plan, but it was her only hope of pulling this off.
Squinting her eyes, Edna pulled back on the trigger. Not enough to make the gun fire, but enough to trick Trish and make her think she was firing. As Trish jumped out of the way to avoid the blast that never came, Edna re-targeted her and pulled the trigger for real this time. Instantly a bolt of energy was fired from the gun and the shocked punk was caught directly in the blast.
"Fuck! I'll kill you, you little shit!" Trish cursed as she felt her body tingling from the energy of the blast.
She lunged at Edna in rage, but as her anger made her movements more reckless and less fluid, Edna quickly avoided her and she fell flat on the ground. Trish slowly stood up and dusted herself off, but at this point she could feel the ray's blast beginning to take effect. As much as she hated to admit it, she knew that this was the end of her reign as goddess. Soon she would shrink away and become just another one of those insignificant bugs that she had moments ago been crushing en masse beneath her feet. Then she would be jailed and put to death for all the destruction that she had caused, and that would be the end of it all.
Or would it? Edna was in quite the rush to set things right, after all. In her haste to blast Trish with the gun, had she even remembered to reset the gun to shrink before firing in the first place?
