the threat. Schwarz, meanwhile, had shoved Lyons to “clear the road” for a massive, swing-through kick. He nailed the grenade with his toe and sent it flying from their position. It exploded, throwing clods of soil everywhere, spraying dust on Able Team.
“Thanks, Gadgets,” Lyons started to say. “I take back everything bad I just said.”
“No, don’t!” Schwarz shouted.
“Huh?” Lyons had time to say before another grenade, then another, then a third, rolled to a stop by their feet.
