““Jared ran for the cracked crate. He shot the closest soldier at point blank range and grabbed the bundle with his free hand. He raced ahead, pivoting on his foot as he placed his pistol directly into the chest of another stunned soldier and pulled the trigger, then he tossed the dynamite into the skyward-facing door of the derailed locomotive.
