There were sounds coming from the room. He quickly sneaked up beside the closed room. He knelt down and looked through the keyhole. Inside, he could see a man standing and threatening an elderly person seated on the chair. The man on the chair must be Norman Spencer. The room appeared quite spacious. Martin thought two more men to be present in that room. The fact that the door was not locked nor anyone was guarding it showed that the attackers were not expecting anybody.Martin studied the door. It was thin plywood. He made a mental image of the room inside.He stood up, and pointed the gun to the closed door at an angle.
He was taking aim through the closed door at the Man threatening Norman.He hoped that whoever else was in the room would be taken aback by the attack. That would be enough time for Martin to do his thing. Martin took a deep breath and fired. Immediately after firing at the door knob he burst into the room.The man threatening Norman had his brains already blown off.
His body was in the process of hitting the ground.One guy was at the window opposite Martin and the other was behind the now dead man.Both had a look of surprise on their faces.They had never expected a door to fire a bullet and kill their accomplice.As soon as Martin entered, they realized what was happening.The guy in front of the window was already a dead man.He took three slugs in his chest before he hit the window pane behind him.
The other guy was swinging his gun towards Martin when Martin bent his wrist slightly to adjust aim and shot the guy in the eye. The guy was dead even before he knew it.It is said that a man's muscles reflexively contract just before death.The same thing happened to the last guy.His gun was swinging into position when the muscles in his fingers wrapped around the trigger contracted microseconds after Martin's Bullet pulverized his brain.
This let a bullet out towards Norman Spencer who had jumped to his feet just as Martin had entered the room. By the time the third guy hit the floor, Norman felt a sharp jab on the Right side of his abdomen. He fell back into the chair.
But he was alive. Martin knew this because the old man coughed.
