This time, despite the vertigo, and a disconcerting multiple viewpoint that made it hard to adjust his focus, he managed to use the tetrabyte image-capture implant to transmit images to HQ. He might not be able to bring everything clearly into focus, but the image-capture system was three hundred times faster than the human eye. The tangos, dressed in black, held their weapons in their left hands. Same guys.

Same uniforms, same weapons, same damned bar codes on the left wrists.

School personnel stood in front of the kids, forming a human barricade. Not that it was going to do them a damned bit of good.

The collective roar caused by the thump-thump-thump of hundreds of rapid heartbeats echoed in Alex’s ears, almost deafening him. The fear coming off the hostages was palpable, and he felt the tangos feeding off that negative energy.

As if he were inside their heads, Alex knew without a shadow of doubt that they had no intention of killing anyone. Not today. Today they were going to unleash the lethal coronavirus LZ17. Then let the hostages walk away.

No one would be aware that they’d been infected as they rapidly carried the deadly, highly contagious virus out into their community. Impossible to detect, it would be seven hours before anyone presented with the horrific symptoms and it would be too late to treat. Seven hours or less could mean several thousand deaths, multiplied with several more thousands that each of those people infected as children went to sports practice, families went out to dinner, bus drivers went to other schools and picked up more children in their infected buses, parents went to work or got on airplanes.

Literally within twenty-four hours, the entire continent, hell, possibly several, would be infected.

He touched his comm link. “Report,” he said barely above a whisper. But he knew no one on his team would answer. He was talking to dead air.
