The convoy was on the final stretch into Billings when it passed a sign on Interstate 90 that read: “REST AREA 1 MI.”

“Dennis, pull off at the rest area. Since we’re here ahead of schedule like you said we would be, I want to stop here and do some recon.”

“You got it, boss. Slowing down now.”

Dennis pulled off the freeway, and as he pulled in the parking lot, the hair on the back of his neck stood up and his stomach twisted.

“Shit, we might have a problem. I don’t feel good about this at all.”

“Talk to me, goose,” Bill replied.

“There are a couple of Humvee’s up here, and I thought I saw movement dash off to the restrooms.”

“Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Ok, everyone, get ready. It could be nothing, but we’re not taking any chances. As soon as you stop, I need Mike, Q, and Cootch to meet me over by the Humvees.”

While the other guys were giving their verbal confirmation, Bill jumped out of the still-moving 4Runner, leaving Charity to park it next to Dennis’s big rig. Using the sound from the other vehicles as cover, Bill ran up beside another eighteen-wheeler already parked there. As he stalked next to the driver’s door, he heard the sound of a hungry thriller inside. He scanned the walkway up to the small building and saw nothing in the green hue of the NVGs. There was a three-foot-wide partition wall to keep bathroom privacy when the door was open.

Bill quickly crept toward a group of trashcans in a neat little bearproof brick housing. He crouched down and peered around the backside towards the bathrooms again. Still unable to see the door, he lay on his stomach and began to crawl across the grass, parallel to the building, until he could see the door.

“I have visual on at least one person in the east-side bathroom. I can only see their foot. Wait. They opened the door. It’s a male. Jeans, light jacket, looks like he’s holding an M4,” said Bill.

“Copy. Let us know if you need backup,” Cootch replied.

Bill clicked the mic switch twice, indicating a negative. The man in the bathroom opened the door all the way, and another two men slowly stepped out. All three were armed, and they moved slowly. The man in the lead approached the edge of the privacy wall. He squatted down and peeked around. Bill noticed that all the vehicles were now silent and the men at the bathroom were not moving. The man looked out across the grass, towards the freeway, and his eyes swept right over Bill. Bill felt his heartrate spike, and he thought for sure the three men could hear his heavy breathing. The man continued to look around, having not noticed Bill. Bill swept his vision towards the parking lot and saw three of his people move towards the Humvees. He heard a scuffle and saw the men moving towards the Humvees also.

“Freeze, motherfuckers! We have you surrounded!” Bill hollered out.

“That’s impossible. You just got here!” one guy called back.
