                Ranger

             Time: 4.41.

Bloodshot eyes seemed to have been rubbed with sandpaper 
bumagoy.Chelovek effort raised his eyelids .... Right next 
heard an unfamiliar laryngeal speech .... Body tensed and 
turned into a knot, a bunch of sand, dried grass in 
anticipation of something terrible. Clods drummed on his back, 
he heard footsteps, and unpleasant, beating on the eardrums 
voices gradually died away. Rana, smart and kind of looked like 
a soup ... set his teeth, he tore the medical paket.Ot stress 
man for some time lost consciousness.


Rousing himself, he threw the first thing under your tongue 
blue tabletku.Minuty two was much better and he could tie his 
shoulder Glass on the clock was broken, but the second hand 
rapidly ran to dial. Time was quite a bit, through two small it 
should have been picked up, and if he did not have time, then 
it's crap, Sergeant Kelly, will be back to mock him as the last 
times. The fact that he could be killed or in case of late 
leave here forever, in a strange, evil steppe, he was not 
thinking. 

               Time: 5.42.

He lay in anti rve.Serdtse feverishly pounding in my chest
Perhaps, if he so frequently ingest this chemical crap
you can get in a psychiatric hospital. Here managed to get 
almost unnoticed. One patrol, however, saw it, but they do

do not know how to shoot, these are Russian. Avoid contact with 
them, he did not failed, and now the search groups roam the 
entire area with intent, if not capture, then at least destroy 
it. Let them try. His parched, swollen lips curled in

evil grin.

               Time: 5.53.

The man sat up and looked out from behind brustvera.Nevdaleke 
in the morning mist on the runway there was a large transport 
aircraft followed by another and another. Only three. About 
passing him, lazily leaning against the huge wheel chassis 
smoking a cigarette hour From the window of the cab stuck his 
head in a flying helmet and a cheerful voice yelled in 
Russian:-Hey, leaky chump! Found a place for kureniya.Idi 
better listen to your ass cool temu.Chasovoy, muttering 
something under his breath, he climbed the ladder to the pilot 
and disappeared into the cabin. 

The man wasted no time and rolled over the parapet,
with all legs off to the airplane, throwing on the run from the 
shoulder haversack. After one minute the deed was done, and the 
man sped already by naprvleniyu second samoletu.Vdrug of the 
first plane back leaned cheerful head, twisted, and seeing the 
running, happily opened her mouth: 

Hoo, hare! I have a muse-shaken!.'s Head shut up queue
and fear disappeared. After a couple of seconds instead of the 
head in the door doorway appeared the whole man in uniform, and 
began firing, trying to verify the performance characteristics 
of its small arms. Stopped running and stop this mockery. On 
the other side of the plane appeared and began to watch 
carefully aim at the wounded. This could not be afraid ... The 
man slowly got up-ended in a tonic effect and, crouching, ran 
to a second plane. 

               Time: 5.56

All the mines were in place. The man looked around. From far 
away across the field to it ran small figures. The man 
swallowed the last blue tablet and pressed the call button 
vertoleta.Vse hours, thirty minutes behind him fly a 
helicopter, but you still get to mesta.Grohnul explosion and 
the first aircraft turned to dust, and together with him and 
loves to listen to music hour. It was time to leave ... 

               Time: 6.21.

The sun had risen above the horizon and began to drive out the 
morning cool. Two hours later, it will be hot, he thought, but 
it is already here will not. He will be away from this accursed 
place, will sit in the bar and drink cold pivo.Kak want a cold 
beer!. But now he must be wary. The main thing is not to sleep! 
Somewhere far sang a fine song komar.On closer and blizhe.Pisk 
escalated into tarahtene. Yes, it's not a mosquito - it's a 
helicopter! Joy surged Niagara Falls ... man jumped to his full 
height, waved a healthy hand and launched into a convoluted 
merry dance: - E-rd! Here, I'm here!


Suddenly there was a burned face and hair on his head cracked 
by fire, engulfed his telo.Potyanulo smell of roast meat. Man

spun like a top, howled, but it did not last long. Coming soon 
from parched throat pulled out just a wheeze. He fell to the 
ground, writhing and squirming, his body is still trying to 
fight the fire, but the He was already far out there in the 
bar, sipping a cold beer and mocked Sgt Kelly ... 

              Time: 6.31

Two men in military uniforms climbed cautiously out of the 
bushes and approached the body .- Ready-stated one, like a 
surgeon in his blue overalls and, putting a flamethrower, he 
began to rummage things are dead.


              Time 7.32

Vaughan awoke in a cold sweat. - Well its a fuck. More in
"Reynzhera" will not play! sluggish thought he. Groan slid from 
the bed, poddernul shorts and went to wash .. Let the water in 
the sink, splashed a couple of handful in the face. Raised his 
head and suddenly froze in horror: in the mirror looked at him 
disfigured, no eyebrows face with purple spots of old burns ...
