Dropped

Both of you duck down and take cover. Hopefully in the dark, the two of you will look like a pile of mud.
You listen as the patrol gets closer. They are chatting in German.
You hear a crunch, and the two Germans drop silent.
A crunch...the compass! They must have found it!
Even if they did find it, it's still dark. They wont be able to see you.
You listen intently, and they take a couple steps. You hear some clattering, and you feel something drop at your feet--

A grenade.

As you two scramble up, the grenade detonates. Your body shakes like hell and everything suddenly goes black.
