Jungle Outpost #2 (story/pic)

Sarge

Jungle Outpost #2

 

Sarge was taking a smoke break away from his men.  He went to pursue the young private who was doing a perimeter check.  He was utterly annoyed with how lackadaisical his men had become during their time away from the front line and wanted to make sure there were no screw ups.  He rounded the corner of the fence, just out of eyesight from his men, when a spear came flying out of the forest, ramming into his midsection and completely piercing him through.  In shock, he reached up and grabbed the shaft sticking out of his torso.

 

A dizzying and sickening sensation ripped through his stomach as he began spewing blood from his lips.  He fell to his knees, noticing one of his soldiers lying dead nearby.  His mind quickly raced to his other men, fearing for them.  He wanted to save them, protect them, but the dizzying-blackening sensation clouded his thoughts and he slumped over on the ground.
