Peru, 08/02/2012, 03:04 .
Marc "Ghost" Sanchez stared at the curtain of rain that was pouring down endlessly in front of him . Hidden in the shadow of a century old tree tilted on the side, he watched the jungle silently almost peacefully, despite the barking of dogs getting closer and closer . His hand familiarly squeezed the M9 handgun in his grasp ejecting the magazine, he looked at it briefly before putting it back in its place . His movements were nimble and swift almost like he had repeated it a thousand times before, which he did .
'Great' He thought bitterly . 'Two bullets left plus one more in the chamber . Not enough to make a difference' .
Closing his eyes and concentrating on his hearing for a while, a picture of a map of his surroundings appeared in his mind . If the greatest genius on the planet could see this they would cry in disbelief . That's not something they would be able to do, so seeing someone who didn't have the IQ of a genius do it so easily would certainly crush their vision of the world . This was an ability he could only accomplish with time, experience and near death experiences . This was also the reason he managed to survive until this day, just a few weeks shy of his 40's birthday, which in his line of work was way past the average life expectancy .
Twelve dogs, thirty five men within an eight hundred feet distance around him, that was the maximum range he could sense . And more people keep coming in . Opening his eyes again he began looking at his hands covered in blood, his blood . Moving a little bit to the side pain shot through his body, especially from his right shoulder and right hips, where he got hit in his escape .
A bitter smile spread across his face . A rough face that demonstrated a hard-led life . Brown hair, brown eyes and clearly of spanish heritage . 5'9'' with a toned athletic body . He vas the kind of people you meet every day in the streets and you don't remember him the second after you have seen him . Which in his job was worth gold .
"Well, it seems that this is the end for me" He said in a cold, unemotionally voice while his right hand reveal a M67 hand grenade that he took from his pocket .
Without a hint of hesitation he casually removed the pin and watched the spring-loaded safety lever separate from the grenade . A light seemed to appear in his cold, brown eyes for a second before disappearing . His life started to flash in front of his eyes while he started counting .
