Chapter 21

Roland sat in his leather chair, his shoulders slumped down and his head sagging. His breathing was labored and he felt like a red-hot bayonet had been driven through the base of his neck. He had seen and felt the pain of tens of thousands of his brood screaming out before their deaths, and he felt a part of his own psyche cleaving away as if someone had taken a scimitar to one of his appendages.

The attack had been extremely well coordinated and the barrage of simultaneous images from each of the nuclear reactor sites had been physically draining. It was difficult enough to direct the actions of two or three of his alphas in separate locations, but having so many reach out for help simultaneously had proven beyond his abilities. He tried to steady his breathing as he thought back to the nature of the assaults—precise attacks by skilled teams of soldiers. But, what stood out was the massive and instantaneous extermination of his drones—thousands screaming out in agony as a yellow mist cloaked them, causing them to choke before going forever silent.

The Others have a powerful new weapon that can kill in seconds on a scale that poses a grave threat to all of us. He ran through a mental replay of each assault on the individual power plants, cataloging the tactics his alphas had used that were efficacious then relaying these to the rest of his brood throughout the world. He analyzed the memories of one attack in particular, where the yellow gas was unsuccessful in eradicating his drones. The heavy rains must have rendered it ineffective. He stood up, moving to the window of his office and staring out at the blood-red sunrise and the heavy build-up of cumulus clouds along the eastern horizon. When he was done, he recalled what his sister had revealed about the large-scale troop movements at MacDill.

The far-reaching tentacles of his mind reached out to dozens of other alphas in the adjoining regions around Florida, his vigor returning as he spoke to them. There is a storm coming—our storm—and when it arrives it will cleanse the world of our enemies. We must move quickly while we have the advantage. You must relocate to the south using the cold surf along the coast to cloak your body heat and then await my orders. Roland sent them a mental image of the location he had in mind. Then he reached out to Katherine. Fifteen of us are on their way to your location. The rest will move up from the southern edge of the peninsula. Tomorrow they should be at your location. Until then, hide and be safe, my sister.
