Spy Ring

"Yo…wha …what…!" Seeing his partner get shot out of nowhere right in front of him, and be sent reeling, the other bodyguard slightly panicked.

But only slightly.

Because an instant later his training kicked in and he turned his head from looking at his partner to locating the enemy.

And then, in a complete twist to what an untrained man would usually do, which was run backward and try to create distance between himself and the shooter, instead, this armed man charged forward!

Because in such an ambush, where the enemy was so close, running away would only be gifting the enemy one's defenseless back as target practice.

The shooter would be able to take all the time he needed to prepare his shot and then shoot again.

And due to how close they were, he would have a pretty good chance of hitting his target.
