Predator Big Game 1

One red light blinked on the side of the alien ship. One small red light. And then it too went out. There was a click. A very loud click that echoed through the large hangar. And that click was the last thing anyone in that hangar heard. Within a fraction of a second, the entire base was
wiped off the face of the planet. Corporal Benson, Sergeant Coates, Colonel Athelry, and the other thousand or so men and women stationed in the New Mexico desert didn't even know what hit them. They died instantly, vaporized into a gray dust that over the years would scatter across the desert and mix with the red sand and dirt. In a tree three miles away, the hunter watched the dust cloud rise to the sky.-pg.538 chpt.8
