Wasting no time
getting there, Billy, Holly and Suzan soon were standing at what appeared to be
a back door to the facility. Billy gave
it a fast once over and whispered into his communication set, “Jim, small
problem here. The door seems to be solid
metal and no outside signs of an alarm system…be my guess it’s on the inside if
there is one. Want me to blow it, or
wait for you?”
Just as Jim
started to respond, Hector muttered, “Hell.”
A roving guard
had just appeared from behind one of the other buildings. As he spotted Billy, Holly and Suzan and
reached for the communication set on his right front shoulder, two silent puffs
emitted from the silenced sniper rifles pointed his way. Both Hector and Jessica fired within a
hairsbreadth of each other. Hector’s
shot hit him in the base of his throat, Jessica’s in his right eye. He was dead before he hit the ground.
Jim just
nodded. “Wait for us, Billy, but put a
charge on it while we head your direction.”
Billy said
nothing, but did as told while Jim, Hector, and Jessica hurried to join the
others. When they arrived, Jim looked
over the door and took out the lock picking tools he carried.
With the lock
soon picked, Jim sighed and turned the doorknob. As he pushed the door open, he muttered,
“Okay, guys fan out. I may be setting
off an alarm.”
The building had
two stories above ground, and one basement floor. Jessica followed Billy through a door leading
down to the basement floor; while Jim and Holly hurried down their corridor in
opposite directions. Hector found a
stairway leading up to the second floor and took it in great haste with Suzan
right behind him.
