      The blast took Ryan Cawdor and his companions by surprise, knocking everyone off their feet before they knew what had hit them.

      As Ryan crashed to the ground, he twisted and gaped through the smoke for a glimpse of who or what had attacked them.

      A slender mutie stood not fifty yards away, his crimson skin glinting in the blazing sunlight. He scowled at Ryan from behind the sights of a shoulder-mounted, jury-rigged gren launcher.
