Rhys lay atop the icy mountainside, focused intently on the images though the scope of his rifle. He spotted four – no, five - Centurions. One was about to engage Winter.

"Target sighted," Rhys whispered to himself.

He slowed his breathing and locked his elbows so only bone, not muscle, was in contact with the ground beneath him.

His crosshairs were locked six inches in front of the Centurion's face.

"On target," the aim-assist AI announced, which produced an involuntary smile upon Rhys' face.

Adios amigo.

His finger gently put pressure on the trigger, and within a nanosecond, a flash of blue flame exploded from the muzzle of the laser rifle. The flash of the muzzle blinded him for a brief moment, then his vision cleared in time for him to see the result of the laser's impact. There was a slight puff of red mist from the far side of the head as the Centurion's body dropped like a lumbered tree.

Rhys lifted his head from the rifle and watched the Centurion fall, then he peered through the scope and scanned for another target. One, then two Centurions were engaging Winter. He needed a clear shot but couldn't wait long. Based on Winter's performance, the Centurions could deal a lethal blow at any moment.

The snow came down harder. The kind so cold it made one's teeth chatter. The skiers, men, women and children, scrambled away from the commotion.

From his peripheral vision he picked up a blur of speed, an oncoming tornado headed straight for Winter.
