Just a Flesh Wound
Drake's POV
We had been walking for hours. This jungle seemed endless. I looked up ahead, and I finally saw an end to the jungle. There was some kind of ancient building and courtyard up ahead. We continued to walk towards it, when I heard a strange sound.
"Wait up, Elena. I hear something." We stood still for a few moments, and decided to continue on. When we reached the courtyard a loud bang erupted from the building, and I felt a bullet graze my cheek.
"GET DOWN!" I shouted, we ducked behind a bench in the courtyard. A group of three men began to run out of the building shouting, "Get them!" and "Shoot to kill!"
I peeked around the corner and shot one of them in the chest. I then quickly rolled over to a more forward position, using a pillar for protection. I looked over to Elena and gestured for her to follow. I saw one of the men peek out from within the building and shot him in the leg, he fell out of the building from shock.
I turned around and saw a man rounding the corner, gun pointed at me, it was too late-BANG! My eyes shut, but when I didn't feel any pain, I looked up and saw Elena grinning.
I began to walk towards her, however, before I could thank her, I saw another man rounding the corner. I ran towards Elena knocking her down, whilst yelling, "LOOK OUT!"
I felt a sharp pain and looked down and saw blood seeping through my shirt. I quickly turned and shot the man between the eyes. I slowly got up and turned to Elena. When she got up, she took one look at me and yelped in surprise, "Drake! You're bleeding."
"Don't…don't worry about it…just a flesh woun-" I mumbled as I collapsed to the ground, my world going black. I guess this is how it ends.
