Chapter 25

PATHWAY TO GLORY

“Here’s the address, this must be the place,” Julius said, shining a light through the window of the huge structure.

“I found it!” Lucius announced from around the corner of the large building.

The others gathered and saw the numeric keypad on the thick, metal door.

“Who remembers the code?” Julius asked.

“It’s an easy one: 314159265,” said Lena.

Julius punched in the code and they were rewarded by the door clicking open. When they got inside, Lena went to the little console on the wall making an urgent beeping noise and punched in the same code, disarming the building’s security system.

They looked around, and spotted a glassed-in office on the street side of the building. As soon as they entered the office and turned on the lights, the telephone rang.

“I’ll get it, it’s probably the monitoring company for the alarm,” Lucius said as he reached for the phone.

“Hello. Yes, this is Lucius Walker. My code is Darkside, I repeat Darkside. No, everything’s all right, I wanted to stop by and pick up some paperwork I have to drop off downtown first thing in the morning. No, thank you. Good night,” he concluded as he cradled the phone.

“I see you and Genesis did a hell of a lot of preparation for this mission. I’m going to check the perimeter. Want to tag along, Al?” Neil asked.

“Sure thing. How far is the motel from here?” Albert asked.

“About two miles. We’ll grab rooms in a little while, then a rental car and a van after a little rest. Sound like a plan?” Lucius asked.

Seeing everyone nodding, Lucius sat down at the one desk with a computer and powered up the system while everyone else left to check out the warehouse. He activated his earpiece and called out, “G2? Is Sondra still awake?”

“Right here, Lucius. Everything go all right?” she asked.

“No problems at all. The others are inspecting the warehouse while I get the office computer booted up for G2. How did it go with Chuck and Todd?”

“They’re fine as far as I know. I was just waiting for you all to report in before I got some shuteye.”

“All right, dear. We’re hanging here for a little while longer. I’ll send someone to grab our stuff hidden at the landing site as soon as we rent the van.”

“That sounds good, Lucius. I’m off to bed. Give Julius a big kiss from me, will you?” Sondra said, laughing.

“I’ll convey your wishes and that’s about it. Catch you in the morning.”

When Sondra was gone, Lucius triggered his earpiece again.

“G2.”

“Yes, Lucius. How may I be of assistance?”

“Have you uploaded everything to Genesis yet?”

“In process. I sent all the flight data from the jumpers Chuck and Todd flew as well. They are both safely underwater now.”

“Good. I have booted up the office computer and it is connected to the Internet. I am loading the CD-ROM now so you can track it down,” Lucius said as he pushed in the tray of the drive.

“One moment, searching … I have located the system.
