Dead of Night
“Plans that all ended up with me getting shot in the back of the head on this stretch of American highway in about five or ten minutes.
I kept my head down, looked through a Land Cruiser’s smashed windows and open doors, hoping I could find something, anything, to help me out. Perhaps a radio with its batteries still working, maybe even a weapon left behind by one of the military escorts. I peered through the open doors and rummaged among the wreckage, trying to ignore the rusty stains on ...the tom upholstery, the remnants of bandages and some tom clothing.
Nothing.
More gunshots, and a thonk! as a bullet struck metal. I got behind the middle vehicle and fired off a shot in reply. How many left? I counted back. Just three. Damn it, just three.
‘Hey, UN man, we’re gonna get ya! Just a matter of time!’ Another shot, coming from further up the highway. Damn it all to hell.MoreLess
