"Damn, why are we stopping in the middle of nowhere?" Alina looked around.
It was nighttime, and it was only one hour away from their destination. Del would suspect that there was a mechanical issue, but his guts were telling him a different thing. He was only one hour away from a town that had been attacked by a separatist group. It could be sabotage, or worse, highjacking.
Del shook Anna to wake her up, "Anna, grab your 16, wear your helmet and comtac, we might have an emergency here." Anna barely opened her eyes as Del grabbed his M16 and Anna's M16. He opened his helmet and attached the straps to help him wear the night vision goggles. He checked everything, including the radio with Anna.
"Test, test, is everything clear?" Del asked.
"Loud and clear, bro," Anna said.
"Let's move," Del said.
