Well done! I absolutely can't wait for the continuation. SOme parts made me as frustrated as Sniper, other humiliated as the Scout, and the rest threw me torn between laughter and awe. Your writing is very smooth, and you know well how to build interest and action into your work just as you mend and boil the plot whenever it needs some action. I'll definitely be expecting to hear from you soon. The only note I'd give you is to perhaps a bit more thinking or emotion on the Sniper's part. Anger is easy to work with, but know that not always anger is the only thing whirling in one's mind at moments like this. But other than this, you did a marvellous job! TBC, I hope? Keep writing!
