introduction:

bullets ripped through the air as I crouched behind a crate, hiding for my life, once or twice the bullets ripped through the crate and barely missed my skull, hearing them rip past my ear did naught but increase my need to escape, there was a barricade to my left and another crate to my right, i had the option of either running to the barricade with a chance of fighting back, or running to the crate and nearing the exit, quickly picking up my gun by the strap as it clattered across the floor i ran to the barricade, keeping my head down and focusing on the objective, i could feel my heart in my throat as bullets ripped through the air above me. I quickly slammed myself behind the barricade and checked my anumition, fuck! empty... With few options left i drew my pistol from it's holster and kissed the barrel, turned around, aimed and shot. The bullet ran through the room avoiding contact with all of the enemy, but they knew beter and one member shouted "get down!" as the bullet pierced the gas tank and an explosion hit the room, i quickly ducked, scarecly avoiding the fire and feeling the heat on my head as i crouched there, head in my knees and hands on the floor, i realized just what i had done. The light from the sun nearly blinded me as it had been so long, so, so, long, grasping this oppurtunity i grabbed the strap of my rifle and ran for it, hoping to whatever force is out there that they hadn't got back up from the explosion, as i reached the wall at the far corner of the room i quickly grabbed the crumbled stone and jumped over, pushing my body onwards and out of the building, from there on it was clean sailing.
