I have a bow and arrow and I shot my friend with it.
How did that happen? Did you do it on purpose?
Yes, she was trying to kill me with a shotgun
Why would she do that? It seems you acted in self defense! It is still wrong to resort to such levels of violence though.
It's fine now, but it was self-defense and I was proving a point.
Protecting yourself is fine, but it worries me that you and your friend seem to have a violent and dangerous relationship. Have you considered that it might be best if the two of you part ways? Sometimes friendships run their course and you need to move on, in this case for your safety.
