Matthew now prepares to shoot the same man he already shot once.

"<Russian>Come on, you fascist dogs. Did you think it would be that easy?" Beckett shouts again, taunting them and hoping that it makes them do something foolish.

Matthew Beckett takes aim firing off another quick shot at the wounded soldier. He fires at the man, but he quickly ducks out of the way. Beckett's shot misses the man as he begins to shake off his wound and pick up his rifle.

It doesn't take long before the unknown soldiers retaliate. Behind Beckett, he hears a familiar sound of a grenade hammer being launched and the metal clanging of a canister hitting the back barn door. It's a high explosive (HE) grenade thrown against the back door of the barn. The grenade explodes, throwing pieces of the door into the air and causing many pieces and fragments to catch on fire. His time stop ability to lock the door seems to have faded away and allowed the grenade to explode on the door. A hole just bigger than a man is blown open in the door and Beckett can see another unknown soldier through the hole.

Next, the shooters in front of the barn take aim and fire back. The wounded soldier takes a moment to recover and doesn't get a clear shot at Matthew.

The squad leader then takes aim and fires a round at Beckett, but misses hitting the tractor in front of Matthew. Beckett felt the wind of the bullet pass by and can see the hole in the tractor just inches away from his head.

With two openings in the barn and trapped between armed men, Beckett begins to take care of one of them, before taking care of the other. He turns around, away from the open doors and towards the lone gunman. In a matter of moments, Beckett is on his way towards him and only stops to send a round in his direction.

Beckett moves towards the rear door of the barn. As the explosion debris and smoke clears, the grenade tosser doesn't even seen Beckett moving towards him with his pistol draw. A quick and steady pull of his pistol sends a round out towards the surprised gunman hitting him in the shoulder. It's a critical hit, knocking the gunman out for the fight.

On the other side of the barn, the two men make a plan and split up. Beckett doesn't see the squad leader, but the wounded rifleman fires another round into the barn, but misses Matthew.

Beckett rushes outside the barn, kicking up dirt as he turns to the left as soon as he's out. Although he cannot make out the squad leader, which makes him slightly nervous, he wants to use the barn as a large cover and to his advantage so he can take the shooters out seperately without the interruption of the others. And if it goes bad he can still turn back and have some time to try something else until they can set their sights on him.

Beckett moves out from the barn, turns north, and takes aim at the wounded sharpshooter. Beckett is a good shot with his pistol and his shot makes it around the cover and strikes the man in the opposite shoulder. With two wounds, the man staggers a bit feeling stunned and takes a moment to collect himself.

Meanwhile, the squad leader moves up behind Beckett and fires, but his shot goes wide alerting Matthew of his presence.

With the things happening almost as he thought it'd go, Beckett takes two steps along the barn towards the wounded sharpshooter. He fires another round at the man, hoping to take him out so he can focus on the remaining thug.

Beckett moves around the north side of the barn and takes another shot at the wounded black ops sharpshooter. The man is stunned and in a lot of pain, but manages to evade this shot unlike the last couple fired by Beckett.

All special ops sharpshooter can do is to take cover and stay out of the way as he's head's still a bit shaken from his other wounds.

The squad leader moves around the corner of the barn keeping his rifle in the ready position. Moving quickly, he turns the corner to find the two remaining men have Beckett cornered on both sides.

That is until Beckett hears, a shout coming from slightly above him, "Chyort voz'mi!" comes a rebel yell from the Russian. Looking back over his shoulder, he finds Tiska, a pitchfork, and the squadleader on the ground in that order. The pitchfork seems to have punctured through the Kevlar vest piercing into the man's chest. With the weight of Tishka on top of him, he doesn't appear to be a threat.

Tishka rolls off the man and finds the squad leader's rifle within arms reach. "<Russian> Oh, man, my head. Its hurt, you know."

"<Russian> You better keep it down for a few moments. It's bad enough it hurts, but it'd be worse if you lose it completely. Or most of it anyway. By the way, well done, Tishka," Beckett says and throws a quick glance to the incapacitated squad leader and a smile to his Russian comrade.

As soon as he turns away from the men, Beckett runs a few yards along the barn to get a better view on the last sharpshooter. He's not sure if he's going to just trap the man or shoot him, but he takes his chances with another round before trying to resort to his power.

Beckett moves quickly and takes aim at the remaining sharpshooter. His aim is true as he hits the man for the third time knocking him down to his knees. The sharpshooter is stunned and barely able to hold onto his conscious as Beckett moves quickly towards him for to finish him off.

As he holds onto his conscience, the sharpshooter lifts his rifle and takes aim at Beckett. Just as he's ready to pull the trigger on the incoming Beckett, the man slips away for a moment unable to pull the trigger and allowing Matthew to get even closer to him.

Tiskha picks up the squad leaders rifle, checks the magazine, and then moves to put his back against the exterior wall of the barn. Even though the former KGB intelligence analyst and computer hacker hasn't seen much combat, he's familiar with the basics of field work.
