The new chapters have gone to the Moderators for posting.
This week's chapters open with Cleve telling to the rescue unit that they were under attack. Later after the shuttled land, a Marine Captain joins him. They are just starting toward the waiting shuttle when they are attacked by an aircar firing on them. The Marine's shuttles take it out at a safe distance.
At the Arnold spaceport, a bossy female Lieutenant Colonel tries to take control of Tiger Team and the two Marines. Clece points out that they are not subject to her orders. They are joined at this point by the Special Operations Representative to Addison III and her Partner.
At the Special Operations building, a large warehouse, the Partners are fed, and the Team retrieves their their personal gear. Following getting set up in their rooms, they return to the first floor where Trish has been working on the evening meal.
Dinner is very tasty, but is interrupted by Miranda who has a premonition that something is wrong. It isn't long after making preparations before there is a large explosion, and they are contacted by one of the destroyers which informs them that they had knocked out a missile headed their way. They are then attacked by two trucks mounting heavy weapons, however Trish has a cure for that.
Miranda detects others waiting for the first responders, and the Marines go on sniper duty. Cleve and all of the Partners go out to look for them. The Eagles provide pictures of the area. Cleve and the Tigers take out one of the rebels and go in search of the others. Bob takes out one and Susie stops a sniper.
Back at the warehouse, the police and other responders soon arrive with questions. The wounded prisoner is sent off to the hospital and the dead one to the morgue. The Team and the Chief Investigator go inside to question the remaining prisoner.
Enjoy these two chapters, more next week with additional action.
Keep Well,
