Chapter 12

The atmosphere was subdued in the ranks. Even with the victory yesterday, the coming event was heavy on everyone's mind. In less than a week, Allah would exact his revenge.

6 days

The rumble of the C-17 transport plane echoed in the cargo area. Bravo team along with the assorted equipment and supplies fought for space in the cramped hold. Along one side of the fuselage, the men rested, silently waiting for the signal that they had crossed back into American airspace. The ones who were still awake stared blankly ahead or down at their cell phones, anxiously awaiting the notification they could finally contact their loved ones. Though technically, the mission had been a success, it had come at a great cost. When the dust cleared, all of the enemies were dead. However, Alpha team had taken a huge hit. Four of their fellow SEALs wouldn't be coming home this time.

"Diablo, Mastiff, Janitor and Razor," Finch muttered. "Four gone in the blink of an eye and seven injured including Diesel and Fritz."

"It was all a trap," Mozart growled. "They were waiting on us, dug in like ticks. You saw it happen. They waited until the team was in that tiny dead-end room before swarming them. The information was planted specifically to pull us in."

"Thank God Bravo was close, or it could have been a lot worse," Bruiser added as he readjusted his leg jutting out into the aisle.

"How's the leg?"

"Hurts like hell. Olivia is probably going to go apeshit when she sees it. I think it's worse for her because she's ex-army. She knows how fast things can fall apart." He ran a hand through his hair and leaned back.

"I can get Ice to talk to her if you think it'll help," Wolf volunteered. "She and the other women get together when we're gone. They're each other's support system."

"I may take you up on that."

"How about you, Hick? The shoulder doing alright? If you need to switch with me so you can rest your arm on the bags, it's okay with me."

"Stop mothering me, Finch. I'm fine. It was a clean shot on the top of my shoulder. Other than a little soreness, I don't even know it's there. It won't even slow me down." Hick snarled.

Finch threw up his hands in surrender. "Okay, Okay. I was just trying to be nice. Jesus."

"What's his problem," Abe asked.

"Which one," Railroad answered without opening his eyes. "Finch is overprotective, and Hick is worried what his friend is going to say when she finds out he's been shot." He made air quotes when he said the word friend.

"Leave her out of this," Hick bit out.

"Oh for God's sake, when are you going to man up and admit that Bethy is more than just a friend?" Toad jumped to his feet. The plane hit a pocket of turbulence causing them to sway precariously. Toad shot a hand out and braced against a stack of crates tightly webbed in against the floor. "Try another line because this bullshit you are shoveling isn't working.
