“We’re finally moving?” I asked, finishing the last of my breakfast bowl and setting it down on the table in Knight Squad’s dining room. It had been weeks of waiting since the train had arrived at the Docks, remaining dormant ever since.

“Yeah. Martinez is certain there isn’t a nuke on the train. Other than that, we have no idea what to expect. Squads Raven, Paladin, and Lancer are going to breach in full EPX while we’ll be on standby a few blocks away in case they need backup,” Caeldra said.

“We won’t have EPX?” Mary asked.

“Nope, not enough to go around. We’ll be far enough away to get the hell out if it’s a bio weapon or something else. They’re positioning us and a few other squads to run reconnaissance and flank if needed.”

“Martinez finished the EMP then?” Leroy asked.

“He finished three test versions of the weapon which means we’ll be set for disabling this thing from the inside out. Paladin and Lancer will each have one, and we’ll have the third,” Caeldra said.

“Why are they giving one to reconnaissance?” Adam asked.

Caeldra pushed her empty bowl to the side and projected the map display from her wrist on the table. “We’re the cavalry. If the breach teams need back up, then we’re first in line with a flank from the eastern side. Ghost, Crypto, and Vector squads are on reconnaissance on the outer north and south borders to make sure nothing hits us from another direction if something else goes down. Shadow is going to be doing the same job as us on the western front, but they’re not going to have an EMP, so we’re first in line if they need an extra detonation,” she said, marking the locations on the holographic map on the table.

“Do you have the EMP already?” Mary asked.

“No. It’s finished, but I haven’t seen it. The report assured me it would be easy to carry and isn’t dangerous. It’s a small cylinder that only weighs about ten pounds.”

“What’s the blast radius on the explosion?” I asked.

“A few feet for this test version, but it’s only got a small fraction of the payload of the real thing. The pulse range on this one should be a few hundred feet, and anything within that range running on the Omniscience Engine wavelength should be fried. It might interfere with our gear a bit since it is an electromagnetic pulse, but overall we should be fine,” Caeldra said.

“What are we doing gear wise?” Leroy asked.

Caeldra pulled up the list on her wrist link. “Rifles and stun grenades, two sets of mags—HexTox and CO2—and extra Nanotech modules all around. We want to be quick, but we also want to be well armored and prepared for anything. They also want us to carry a bullet-based SMG with a few mags each just in case. If there are bots, they won’t be as effective, but if the EMP disables our gear, we’ll want to have something to fight with if things get nasty.
