I peeped from my hiding spot behind a red Mishima truck just long enough to positively indentify the target. His name was John Hope and he was a heretic of Algeroth. John was just standing there waiting. I sank back down behind the truck and looked up at the stars on this Moonless night in Hiemburg. " May the Cardinal forgive me" I said as I silently loaded one bullet into my PSG-99 just like they taught me in the Doomtrooper Academy. I took another look at the Heretic. He was still standing there about 300 ft. away with his blue tee-shirt and black leather jacket. Showing up brightly under the street light.

I ducked back down fast when I heard another voice in his direction. After a little while I peered over the hood of the truck and saw him talking to a man in the shadows. "Dammit" I said as I put a second bullet into the chamber. "He was not supposed to met until four and its twelve. I panicked for a few seconds then took a deep breath. "Ok, ok no matter just identify the second and target if a hostile shoot them both". I put on my NG-1700 night-vision goggles and looked again.

"A Nephrite " I could clearly see his three horns. I ducked back behind the truck. "I am so unlucky, I better shoot before a squad of pretorian stalkers come walking by."I took a deep breath and popped up and locked the laser-sight on the Nephrite. Right before I fired he saw me. I will never forget his face, his eyes got huge as he tried to see what was pointing a laser at him, then he smiled knowing that death means nothing to him. BOOM, his face exploded spattering john's face with Brain and blood. The Nephrite fell back into the shadows as John began to run down the street at a unhuman pace. John did not look back which is what I hoped. I did not want his to see his me. I wish he could have ran that fast in our senior year high school track race. I put the cross hairs on his neck which was bobbing up and down in sync with his leg. "Forgive me" I said before putting a bullet smashing though his scull and out the other side sending brain all over the expensive Imperial Roadster.
