Ambush

Crash!

The first thing that I heard when we neared the campsite of the rest of our team, was the sound of the cloth tearing, metal clinging and some strange noise that I couldn't figure out the source off. But before I would even have a chance to attempt guessing its origin, one of the two commanding trucks filled to the brim with expensive electronics exploded in a ball of fire!

Raising several meters above the ground, a gentle hue of deep redness seemed to enrich the flames for a moment, before this single showcase of disaster came to an end. 

"Wha…" 

Instantly unhooking my safety belt I was about to jump out of the car and join the relief effort right away, when a sturdy hand of my bodyguard slammed right into my chest, burying me back into the pillows of my seat.
