#FlashTag: Encampment

 

#FlashTag @monologging  The army officer kicked the cans. “Damn it,” he said. “We’re too late.”

#FlashTag@ “Check every room! They’ve got to be here.” The room is dark, only a ray of sun shining through the window.

#FlashTag@ Three things happen at once. The sliver of light disappears, someone screams and everybody starts shooting.

#FlashTag@ A bullet bit the officer’s neck. He held the wound. Blood pumped between his fingers. He fell to his knees.

#FlashTag@ With his good arm, the officer crawled to a better vantage point. Men fell on both sides.

#FlashTag @itsjaykyall laughter echoed, shrill & splintered.
