Sub Level 1, Manifold Omega Facility, 2013

Jared, the more naturally militant personality of the three men, led his Creator and his duplicate-brother out of the stairwell and into the hallway of Sub Level 1. He moved slowly into the hall, glancing down its empty length, and peering cautiously at the doorways leading into the opposing Cold Lab and the Microbiology Lab. Darius’s forces hadn’t entered this level yet.

“He’s probably hoping to flush them from the loading dock upward. We’ll spring the trap behind the janitor’s closet before they’re expecting it,” he told Ridley and Seth.

He approached the door to the Microbiology Lab and opened it slowly, expecting a hail of gunfire. When none came, he moved in and the other two men followed. The lab looked untouched.

“They’ll be on the other side of the closet, or down the tunnel at the Amphitheater stairs. Either way, they have a defensible position. They’ll—”

“It makes no difference,” Seth interrupted.

Richard Ridley walked over to a security panel on the wall. It had a 6-inch LCD screen and a few buttons next to a numerical keypad. Ridley typed in a security code and the LCD came to life showing two soldiers stationed in the hall outside the janitorial closet’s secret door. They looked bored as they lounged against the tunnel walls, completely unaware they were being monitored by the camera in the security plate next to the door.

“Only two men,” Ridley said. “Hardly an obstacle.” He typed in another sequence on the keypad, and a locked metal cabinet on the wall sprang open. Inside it, he retrieved a satellite phone and a Browning 9 mm pistol. He handed the phone to Seth and the gun to Jared.

Seth stepped away from the other two men and began dialing a number. Jared cocked the weapon and moved to the janitorial closet. He carefully moved a mop aside, allowing Ridley to follow him into the cluttered space. Jared looked back to Ridley for confirmation. The man nodded, the overhead bulb shining off his bald head.

Jared turned back to the door, opened it and fired two shots. Both of the soldiers were caught completely off guard, crumpling to the tunnel floor without even raising their weapons.

Jared stepped into the tunnel, reached down and pulled a Glock 19 from the dead mercenary’s holster. He kept it and handed the Browning back to Ridley. Seth, finished with his phone call, stopped at the control panel and punched in a third sequence, then he joined the other two. “We’re ready,” he said. “Communications are jammed.”

Jared stepped over the two corpses bleeding on the tunnel floor and led the way into the dark tunnel. Ridley paused at the security panel on the far side of the door. He typed in a code and the tunnel filled with light from several caged lights lining the walls.

Jared turned back to Ridley. “Sir, they’ll know we’re coming…”

Ridley simply nodded and they moved on down the length of the tight tunnel. The pitted stone walls were just wide enough for the broad men to pass, but would make an excellent place for an ambush.
