They traveled with haste through the treeline, the screams still strident and now very close. Ahead of Kassian, the first in line came to a halt and the ones behind fanned out around them, taking defensive positions.
When it was Kassian's turn, he moved forward and had to step around the side of a taller man so he could see.
The Ocelots stared, almost incredulous as they eyed the tableau before them: Borishnakov with a gun in his hand, a man in a bloodstained white lab coat, incongruous in the swamp, and an impressively large crocodile that appeared to be dead.
Kassian remembered the reptile that had attacked Gurlukovich, and then shook his head.
Borishnakov, for his part, had a slightly startled expression as he turned to see the phalanx of Ocelot soldiers now surrounding him.
It seemed like Borishankov had a lot of explaining to do, Kassian thought.
