Dmitri and the other Scouts picked their aim. Their cold fingers rested at the trigger guard, holding their breath in anticipation.

"Rog' your last."
Echo Two, who was fifty meters behind, split their formation into two and went offroad. Kross vaulted over the rusted rail and landed on softened soil.
Green foilage filled his vision, but his eyes pierced through the interference and quickly locked in on several zombies ahead.
