“How’s it going, Asher?” Max bit out his question over the comm.

“Half are in the church. Give me two more minutes and they’ll all be there. Keep the fire away from them,” he said roughly.

Nic heard the answer but processed it with only half his brain; the other half concentrated on getting himself positioned so that he could take out the two men in the truck with the tarp on it. Well, maybe there were more, but he’d seen two rifle stocks sticking out, so at least two for sure.

The problem was, if he moved from behind this Jeep there was no more cover. He opened the passenger side door and let himself in then slowly crept over the front seat until his rifle was propped over the window. His hand itched to just throw in a grenade, but he couldn’t be sure that they hadn’t dragged one of the village women into the truck with them, the bastards.

“I need a distraction, Ezio,” Nic whispered into his mic. “Do you have eyes on me?”

“I do. You going to get whoever is in that truck, right?” Ezio asked. “Because I don’t have the shot,” Ezio groused.

“Yeah, I’m in position, but I need them to peek their heads out. I’m just not sure that they haven’t got one of the village women in there with them, so no grenade.”

“Gotcha. One distraction coming up. Maybe even three or four.”

What?

Nic heard the distinctive sound of a sniper rifle popping two times, followed by cackles of chickens and squeals of pigs. Ezio must have blown out the locks on the pigpen and the chicken coop. Nic kept his sights on the back of the truck, gratified to see both men pop their heads out to see what the noise was all about.

Nic carefully aimed. Two bullets, two headshots.

“One down,” Cullen said.

“I’ve got one,” Raiden said.

“I’ve got two,” Nic announced.

“That brings the total to eleven,” Max’s voice rumbled. “Asher, what’s your status?”

“Everyone’s in the church.”

“Raiden, get your ass in there. If you need a medic back-up, let us know and we’ll send in Kane,” Max commanded.

“It’ll take me a little more than a minute, lieutenant,” Raiden said. It was obvious that he was occupied setting up a kill, otherwise, he’d be there faster.

“Okay, as soon as you can,” Max agreed.

Nic backed out of the Jeep. “Ezio, what’s next?” he asked.

“Two gunning at us—”

An explosion rocked Nic back on his heels. He whipped his head around to look, then cursed as he was blinded.

“Fuck, fuck, fuck.” He yanked the night vision goggles off his head then pushed his thumb and forefinger into his eyes, trying to clear them.

“A Jeep just exploded,” Raiden reported. “West end of the village. Any casualties?”

Everyone reported in.

“They’re trying to divert us from the villagers’ homes. That’s got to be it,” Cullen said. “The sick fucks have been hiding out in there. I don’t want any of them to get away.”

Nic could see now. He didn’t need the goggles since it was damn near dawn.
