Crusaders III: The New Age 1.24

3.5  Micheal Night Shoot

Micheal had the place selected at a dry river bed. He left the hound carcass there to attract others.

At dusk the Vampire Elites arrived at the river bed. Schindler held back his Vampires. He looked at the river bed, and checked the possible places which the Euro sniper would hide himself. The setting sun offered them some relief, with the blood from the vial protecting them from the sunlight. He was given the order to hunt the sniper which was suspected to the descendant of Moor. He studied the river banks, the land after it, with little cover to offer to any sniper. It was not an ideal location for a sniper but this particular one selected it.

The question was why.

He could not find the sniper so he sent the team off on their hunt.

"Smell him out but we would wait. The darkness would assist us." The four Vampires slipped off into the twilight to seek their opponent. Unknown to them, at four hundred yards, on a boulder near the river bank, Sam had positioned himself with the sniper rifle, and his body smeared with the mud over his body on the top, leaving only his left shoulder and face uncovered, to cover the scent of his body. Micheal was somewhere on the other end, with the same cover and maintaining the cross fire advantage.

"Sam, I got one on the boundary marker." Micheal whispered into the comms, with certain strategic areas marked beforehand. They had the place marked for ambush for some time.

"I got mine on the green line." Sam replied. "Fire at will".

The four Vampires had spread out across the river banks to search for the humans, with their own rifles unslung and ready to shoot. They are the best but they had never fought with the top best snipers. Both shots went out simultaneously and their projectiles held the same explosives head, blew a hole in the head off the Vampires. They had laced the explosives contents with silver dust. The effect was a killing effect on the blood sucking Vampire.

Schindler saw the two Vampires went down and reacted immediately. He leapt up from his crawled position and ran with speed across the river bed towards Sam' position while the other two followed behind. He was fast with his enhanced blood with triple the speed of Man.

"Sam, fire in the  ..." Micheal did not get to finished the line when Schindler triggered the sensor on the river bed, and fired off the seven placed bombs aimed towards his position with a breath of fifty feet in distance. The explosives exploded and with its silver bits mixed with the high explosives acted like a mine, blew itself into the three Vampires from both sides. Their bodies were torn off in chunks before the smoke dispersed. Only two died, but Schindler survived with only his left leg torn off at the thigh. He tried to move but he was unable to. He reached for the blood vial in his jacket but it was shattered by the blast. It was then he saw the raised body of the elusive sniper.

"Father be bless thrice." The projectile with the explosive hit Schindler in the forehead.

Across the plains of the land, Colonel Drak screamed out in pain when he felt the termination of his Vampire Elite. He had felt the killing of the other four but Schindler' one was more personal. He had recruited Schindler from the ranks of the tribe to lead that team. He wanted to send out the second squad when his leader told him off.

"The Moor descendant would have to wait. We are to move to Munich. There we can plan the termination of the Crusaders." The hidden one told him. "It’s the order of the Prophet."

Colonel Drak bowed to his leader but his vengeance was still within him.


"If I may, Colonel. I would like to sent one other to do the task." The hidden one spoke out. "Rouse out the creature. It’s time he served us his gratitude. Send him to Rosenheim. Send Major Norris to lead that attack.
