Black Hole Sun (2010)
“4. 0. 00:00 “Man the chain gun!” I yell to Ockham over the noise of the engine. I twist the throttle, and the sled leaps forward.
But the old man is already bringing the massive barrel to bear. A line of Dræu charge up the hill, carrying plasma pistols. Ockham releases a burst of fire. They fall like their legs have imploded.
“Get in!” I call to Vienne. She jumps down from the knoll into the deck, careful to avoid Jean-Paul’s tarp cocoon, and slides into place while swapping the sniper barrel o...ut of her armalite.
Jet flames erupt from the sled’s turbine. We shoot forward, the force of the sudden acceleration snapping our heads back. The front skies bounce over the knoll, and the weight of the extra ammo causes the rear to lift. For a long second we hang there, teetering between escape and collapse, until Vienne throws herself forward onto the cowling.
I steer hard left, following the path we took into the camp. The Dræu crest the hill again, and their pistols are primed to fire.MoreLess
