Fame and Glory
The silence is complete.
Are my ears working?
No running. No chatter. No nothing.
Off in the distance I see movement.
I move a little to my right to get a better angle.
I
make out the colors and shape; it is a friend.
Rat-a-tat-tat.
Me, "Hey! Why are you shooting at me?!?!?!"
My teammate, "Well, what are you doing over there?"
And so it goes another night of being shot by my own teammates...
___
Tonight's
world is the largest it has been in a long time. There are the regulars,
me, BadKitty, Pisser, Bunny'sFan, KrazyKarl, Tom, and sometimes
Bunny, plus Joe flew in, and even Good Chris showed up and played
for a bit. Throughout the night it is 4 on 4.
___
Bunny
is on Fire. She has killed Pisser twice in a row.
When the game is down to 1 on 1 this is your chance for glory. Either
you win it for your team, or your enemy wins it for their team.
On top of that, since the rest of the players are dead, they have
a front seat on the action because they are either following you
or him. It's down to Bunny and Pisser. Most of us died in this one
section of hallway. Bodies and weapons litter the ground. Bunny
takes up a defensive position; she is crouched behind a box. We
can hear footsteps approaching. Pisser is running. He comes upon
the piles of dead bodies and he spots an M-16. He is so focused
on the gun that he runs past Bunny. She opens up with her MP 5.
He can't turn fast enough as she empties the clip and kills him.
___
Airfield
is one of the unbalanced maps.
The CT cannot beat the Terrorists to the secondary bomb site. We
have already lost 4 in a row. They have tons of money to purchase
any weapon and they always have full armor. This time I can only
afford armor and a Desert Eagle. Run run run. I stop at the bridge
in case they decide to change their destination - no such luck.
Bang bang bang. Rat-a-tat-tat. Bunny is down, and so is Joe. Tom
is off hiding, "It's not fair. They're killing us and there's
nothing we can do. Game over man. Game over." So it's up to
yours truly to save the day. I round the corner in the first hanger
and off in the distance I barely see movement. I aim high - and
the first Terrorist is dead - headshot. A second Terrorist comes
running around the corner. I aim high again and Terrorist number
two now has an extra hole in his head. A quick reload and I come
upon T number 3. A third headshot and I have a rifle. T 4 is looking
in the other direction and he is dead meat. And we win. Ahhh sometimes
you get lucky.
