Predator Stalking Shadows 8

"Releasing a barrage of gunfire into the trees all in one one-word warning, swinging up his Heckler and Koch MP3 fluid movement. Instantly the rest of the team scattered, aiming for cover they'd already earmarked, slipping naturally into a formation that allowed them to attack the location of the Hunter from all angles. This they did, blasting away into the trees, turning the leaves and branches overhead into a cascade of mulch and splinters. The Hunters were fast, but not so fast that this tactic didn't often yield results, most commonly by wounding the alien and thus slowing it down and forcing it to retreat."

"On this occasion, though, it was clear that no sooner had the Hunter been spotted than it was gone, disappearing the trees like a phantom. After ten seconds of strafing gunfire, Dutch called a halt. The sudden silence after the cacophonous blizzard of bullets was so shocking that even the clatter of rain now seemed muted to the gentlest of whispers."pg.84 chpt.4
