Ambush

From Create Your Own Story

Your rifle is slow to move into a better position, making sure not to make a quick movements that might be noticed even at this distance. Hanging the gun low you line up your shot knowing that once you raise the gun the dull gleam of the gun will be seen in the afternoon sun. Feeling assured that the first shot will be a good one you take a deep breath. Wiping the gun up the hem of your hood flips back with the cracking of the rifle, its kick back rocking you slightly.

The first body drops in a flash without so much as any sign the man ever knew you were there. Screams are heard from the sudden death of their companion but its short lived as another shot flies from the tip of the rifle dropping the second man just as his eyes were training onto your position. You lower the scope from your eye to view the scene below thinking that all was done after taking out the two men but it was the older woman who was diving towards the shotgun which had clattered to the earthen hill.

"They never give up do they?"

Sighing softly at having to waist another bullet you pull the rifle up and another shot rings out across the hill and then silence.
