The algren came at Abby and her family again.
Gramps blasted the biggest, most aggressive looking one out of her boots.
Now the algren didn't come at the family.
They came at Gramps, or where they figured Gramps was. Gramps got off two blasts. Down went two algren.
A third algren got off a shot of her own. Gramps dove for the ground as a laser blast zzzzed over his head.
He rolled back to his feet, blaster at the ready.
He used it to punch a hole through one algren's torso.
He saw four of them huddled.
He pitched four mini grenades in their direction.
BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM!
