Harrison stared at John Keller’s phone, wishing he could make sense of the messages. Reggie had blocked the GPS feature and was struggling to decode the previous notes from who he assumed was Christine. The system was advanced, even for Harrison’s IT guy, which spoke volumes about its quality. Whatever had encoded the texts was far superior to what Harrison used.

Noah wore all black, his muscles filling out the uniform. While some of his bulk had gone to fat, he still cut an imposing figure.

Anders looked like any man you might see eating at a roadside diner with his family. Jeans, a blue button-up plaid shirt, and a baseball cap without a logo. Harrison had enough experience to know you never underestimate someone’s abilities, and Anders Montrave was a prime example.

Harrison wore a bulletproof vest over his black shirt and threw a dark windbreaker on. They all used earpieces connected to a private channel. It had been a while since he’d worn a chest and thigh holster, and he adjusted the one on his leg, not wanting it to impede his ability to run. The assault rifle had many attachments, some not available to the general public or even the US military.

They were three against an army.

The odds weren’t much better than what Caesar might face on Arcadia, trying to protect his land from a madman. Harrison wasn’t certain which he preferred: defending with a small number or going on the offensive. Both had their advantages.

He checked his watch, estimating the time the power would cut out. They’d gone through Keller’s things, but nothing on him would gain access into the facility’s gates, so they were sticking with Anders’ plan. He carried the battery-powered socket tool, as well as a heavy-duty bolt cutter in case the first failed.

Noah cracked his neck and eyed the fence with binoculars. It was night, and he realized how different Arcadia’s time was from Earth. He wished he’d paid more attention to it when Summer had Shifted.

The sky was clear, with a big bright moon and thousands of stars on display. They were miles from a major city, making the view even more extraordinary. He would have loved a cloudy night, but he let it go, having no control over the weather.

Harrison tried not to think about his family, but it was impossible in those few moments before the power was turned off. He recalled bringing Lydia home to Fatina, and how happy they’d been from that moment on. He’d had a great run, and felt the Grim Reaper beckoning him to join him in the riverboat.

The complex was well hidden, but in the dark, the lights became obvious. They observed the sentries, prepared for the five minutes they’d have to race across the valley.

Noah lifted a finger. “The contact assures me the grid will be shut down for unscheduled maintenance in six minutes.”

Anders lowered his binoculars and started a timer on his watch. “Let’s move.”

Harrison took a deep breath, then ran around the stone wall.
