This time he closed his eyes and let his other senses take over. Other than the gunfire, there were calm and measured footsteps. They were two sets, nearly in sync, and their trigger discipline was excellent. Short and controlled bursts and nearly in sync, means a military background.

A man in a dark suit crouches low against a blood-spattered concrete wall, peering cautiously into a grey bunker kitchen. Stainless steel counters, sinks, and pots are visible in the background. Bullet holes and blood marks cover the walls. The image has a soft polaroid-style border.

He sprinted towards the couches while keeping down low. Gunfire peppered the furniture, sending stuffing into the air. Good thing, I'm not allergic to feathers.

A man in a dark suit crouches on a black leather couch, firing a pistol with a bright muzzle flash. White stuffing and foam explode outward from the couch and fill the air around him. The grey concrete walls behind him show bullet holes and blood spatter. The image has a soft polaroid-style border.

It was the one of the messes and by the looks of it the staff were caught by surprise. Several were dead at their tables, bleeding over the breakfast. Others were shot in the back as they went for the ready use locker in the far corner.

A man in a dark suit crouches low beside a metal table in a grey concrete mess hall, one hand braced on the table, looking intently toward the open doorway. Bullet holes and blood spatter mark the walls. A bright muzzle flash is visible in the hallway beyond the door. The floor is dirty and scattered with debris.

Commander Jack Smythe had his pistol drawn while moving down the hall. The concrete walls were pock marked, scorched, and nicked all tell-tale signs of small arms fire. Not to mention the blood splatter.

A man in a dark suit and tie stands in a narrow concrete hallway, holding a black pistol with both hands in a ready stance. He has short dark hair and a focused, tense expression. The grey concrete walls show bullet pockmarks and dried blood spatter. Dim overhead lights illuminate the corridor, which ends at a distant door. The image has a soft polaroid-style border.

“Because I'm no-no, no-no-no-nobody's baby now,” Grace sang as she floored the accelerator and was pushed deep into the seat. In her rearview mirror she spotted the wreck getting smaller. In seconds it would be swallowed up by the fog entirely.

She wears a dark hoodie and white over-ear headphones around her neck. The shot is framed through the open driver’s side window, with a soft polaroid-style border around the image.

There would be no reply, she swiped to her music app and pressed okay. “Oh!” she exclaimed. “I love this one.” Grace cranked the volume until the sound could be heard all around her. The modern base and beats really age to give this forgotten song a new life.

A young blonde woman with her hair in a bun walks through a cracked field of dead crop stalks under a thick rusty-orange fog. She wears a worn green jacket, dark pants, boots, a large backpack, and white over-ear headphones around her neck. She appears to be moving with a slight dance-like step toward a white minivan with tinted windows parked on a road at the edge of the field. The image has a soft polaroid-style border.

The other reason for distracting him was the glass itself. While she is as a great shot, glass often fucked with the ballistics. Here the proof was at the impact point. The bullet went in right through his right eye and straight out the back. She could see the ground on the other side and smiled.
