>>>>>[ Fuck it. FUCK IT, how did he do thad?

dad could have spoiled it...

Just two gas cylinders, a small primer, a small radio... but de radio

This is not the barrens. Not quite, but actually a few streetlights
are still working, and most windows are just barred and not nailed
shut. And the car that now comes into view is too expensive. Two
cars, rather.

"Fine, fine," a hoarse voice croaks, "here we are..." The camera
view turns down, to a small radio set with a button on it. The
safety box over the button is removed by a gloved hand wet from
the permanent light rain.

The camera view centers back on the cars, "you are nearly there,
yeah, go, baby.."

Suddenly, the leading car hits the breaks *hard*, and comes to a
skidding halt, the trailing one stopping too.

"What?" Three men drop from the first car. all of them holding
automatic rifles , scanning the area. "But ye can't..." "Over there!"

one of the armed men yells, pointing directly at the camera.

"Shit," Ein_Schuss mutters, and a silent "click" is followed by an
explosion in the street. A column of fire builds up twelve to fifteen
meters where once a sewer entrance was, and debris is scattered,
but the explosion is too far away from the cars to do any more
damage then throwing one of the men from his feet.

The camera view turns around quickly, as the dwarf starts to run...

Damn. Must've been da magician... A guess A just was too close.
Or did the fucker see the bomb? Damn, there are no books to find
stuff like that, dem spellslingers keep their secrets..

Gotta keep that fucker in mind, had my grenade not slowed em
down, dis acid spell would have burned through my suit... A mean,
hey, dad *is* bad mojo! ]<<<<<
