Chapter 17 - Throwing Grenades (Patreon)

Taking a quick glance out of cover to identify our attackers’ current positions, I outstretched my left guide hand like I had once been taught, what felt like a lifetime ago back in basic training, and threw a stun grenade with my right, with all the precision and strength my genetic enhancements offered. Then I waited. I'm not above admitting that I showed off a little by bouncing the grenade off three trees before it landed directly in the middle of the group of mercenaries who could only stare dumbly at the unknown object that had landed at their feet. I had considered using a plasma grenade to kill them all, but this wasn’t Bajor and that level of force would probably see me in the brig or something knowing how righteous these people were.
