   “Get him out of here!”

   “How the hell did they find us?” 

   “I don’t know…duck!”

   “Ignore him, he’s had it.”

   “Down! Mortar!”

   “This is not like them. They are silent killers.”

   “It’s a distraction.” 

   “Stop, do not go any further.”

   “Sir, we’re next to the stairs.”

   “Look at the floor.”

   “Oh.”

   The tiled floor was covered in thin wire all rooted to an explosive placed inside wooden boxes. The Americans checked behind them to see the explosives wired all across the corridor reaching back to the thick wooden door.

   “How the hell?” 

   “The firing has stopped.” Footsteps sped up the stairs. 

   “They’re coming.”

   “Let them.” A sound of a helicopter closed on them, its blades roaring overhead.

   “Men, stay calm, stay alert.” The door flew open. One of the Americans ran through, his forehead soaked in sweat and his torso covered in blood. 

   “I have a way out.” he exclaimed. These were his last words. One of the wires had been touched and the explosives exploded shattering windows and sending the men flying. Limbs separate. Their Leader however had disappeared without any of them noticing; he was currently swinging in the air held on by a rope just outside the building.

   “As you know we have the whereabouts of the Shadow for the first time and we must be quick. He has vital Intel to stop Project Diamond Glass unfortunately, we need him to access the information located in a heavily locked safe in the basement. A safe that is nearly impossible to crack. Fortunately, we have the key. We are going to black out the area then I shall get in and use the key.” said Captain Dareous as the helicopter soared through the night sky of Miami. “Ian I need you to get in and wire the west corridor with Steve and set the explosives.” 

   “How much explosives?” said Ian

   “Paint them. Sarah and Antony if you could mortar the buggers and create us a lovely distraction. We need to get them into the corridor. David set team one down on the opposite side of the defence with the heavy gear and set team two on top. Caitlin you can strap Alex up so we can do a fly-over-grab.” 

   “Okay what about you?” asked Alex.

   “Me? I shall breach the back end as they are escaping and grab any important Intel. So, are we all sorted?”
