NAKED SNAKE

*The local nature was distinguished by its large vegetation, but even here, in the most open places of the forest, there were military bases. Since the wars began, it almost became a routine, caustic, but routine. * Snake could not say that he liked nature, quite the contrary: he hated tripping over tree roots and low bushes, feeling awkward. And therefore, hiding among the trees, he decided to give himself a little rest, although he was still on alert. Leaning against the tree, he involuntarily listened to the sounds - it was something like his habit that had gone with him since his childhood. And so, he heard the rustling of leaves, which instantly made him rise to his feet and, taking a few steps and raising the barrel of the pistol towards the sounds, hid, waiting.
