Death of All Life on Earth II

Shots erupted inside the culvert and the sound echoing from the inside made it sound like there were dozens of weapons firing. When Max got over to the crest of the road and looked down, he could see the three of them firing into the culvert. Bullets were flying so fast and ricocheting off the inside it was impossible to avoid being shot. Max instantly thought of his little brother in that hail of bullets and sat down with his elbows on his thighs and started firing. One shot at a time. “Bam… Bam… Bam.” Three shots and three hits; the three men were all down. He could hear little Keith William screaming as if he were in pain. He slid and fell down the sharp incline to the mouth of the culvert and glanced at the three intruders as he went by. They were all gasping their last, but he was in a hurry to get to his brother and let them lay there groaning and bubbling blood.
