Gun battle

This was war!

Bullets were flying everywhere, Patrick had never been in a gun battle before. He’d been through the basic training that everyone else had, but this was his first real combat situation.

He found it exhilarating, and terrifying at the same time. He ran as fast as he could into what he thought was an abandoned building. He slowly moved through the structure cautiously surveying each room thoroughly before proceeding to the next.

Then, as he entered what looked like the remains of someone’s office, he saw an enemy soldier. The soldier had a sniper rifle and was picking off targets one by one. Patrick slowly and quietly readied his weapon, he took aim, and fired!

A head shot, a straight kill.

This was the first life he had ever taken, he felt a strange mixture of both guilt and satisfaction. Then he heard something, he turned around and before he even had time to think,

he was dead.

Shot straight in the head!

“Crap!” he said to himself.

The screen turned red and GAME OVER appeared.
