BANG!
For a second, time stopped until another round was heard in the small room. Those guarding the path started shooting the men in uniform. And by men in uniform just like them, that included Slater.
"Shit!" Slater, quick to react, slid away the second the first shot was heard. In the next second, more gunshots rang out, so he took shelter behind a counter.
He flinched as some bullets managed to hit his cover. He didn't fire back.
'Damn!' he hissed, waiting until the gunshots finished. But they didn't. In under a minute, all the bullets were coming directly at him. Fortunately, this counter was thick enough to protect him; otherwise, his body would've been riddled.
'What are they—why are they only firing here?!' he panicked, sensing there was only one left. Him.
