Chris went invisible and sprinted straight toward the front gate of the compound, while Ethan looped around toward the back.
They'd already agreed—two machine guns each.
Ethan reached the rear gate quickly. The guards hadn't spotted him yet, so he used [Teleportation] and blinked right next to one of the heavy machine gun nests. Without hesitation, he grabbed the barrel and bent it with a sharp twist, then tossed the whole thing off the wall.
"Who's there?!"
The guards finally noticed him. When they saw the destroyed machine gun, they shouted in fury and raised their rifles, opening fire.
Ethan's machete shot out like a bullet, slicing clean through one guard's neck before he could even aim properly.
But the gunfire had already shattered the compound's calm.
Alarms rang out as nearby soldiers rushed toward the commotion.
