Voeckler wasn’t sure how to answer Major Halverson as he crouched near the pair of pines, smelling the fires and spotting the black smoke coiling up over the treetops. What was going on up there?

He winced and replied, “Uh, right now, it’s just me, but I’ll get you out of there!”

“Just you? Jesus Christ, we’re in a truck, heading down the mountain. Got three guys on dirt bikes following. I hope you’re heavily armed!”

Voeckler eyed the Makarov in his other hand, thought of the AK slung over his shoulder. “Yeah, okay. Right. What’s with the fire?”

“Forgotten Army had a weapons cache up there. We blew the shit out of it!”

A chill struck hard across his shoulders. “You did what?”

“We blew it up!”

He closed his eyes. “Are you kidding me? I’ve been trying to locate that cache!”

“Well, I found it. We’ll link up with you shortly. Halverson, out!”

Voeckler couldn’t believe what he’d just heard. After all his hard work, Halverson had unwittingly accomplished his mission. What kind of cruel fate was that?

Then again, he’d head back to Langley with two feathers in his cap instead of one. The Bear’s smuggling operation was gone, as was the man. All Voeckler needed to do now was smuggle Halverson out of the county.

The thrumming of gunships sent his gaze skyward, through the canopy—

And there they were, a mechanized flock of three Mi-24s with camouflage-pattern fuselages, each carrying at least eight troops determined to ruin his day.
