“Goddamn Gooks is what they are,” he said. “Got to go git me some Gooks.”

“Rupert! No!” screamed Jana again. “Cade, we’ve got to get out of here! He’s going to start shooting out there!” Tears were welling in her eyes. “Is there another exit? He’s going to start shooting. We can’t go that way! We’ve got to get down a stairwell!”

“It’s over here! It’s this way.” Cade was still dazed but began running with Jana through the server racks toward the only other exit, a stairwell on the southeast corner of the building.

They ran through the maze of clustered servers and down the far wall to the corner of the building. They were now directly across the server floor from the door Rupert Johnston just kicked his way through. Cade yanked back on Jana just before she hit the door. “Wait! Wait! The alarm will go off! The door’s got an alarm on it!”

Gunfire erupted from the far side of the floor. They could hear Rupert’s muffled yelling, “You motherfuckin’ Goooooooks!” Loud popping, muzzle blasts were answered by screams and more pops; CIA security personnel were returning fire.

Jana yelled, “I don’t think they’re going to notice the stupid door alarm,” and kicked the door handle. The metal door burst open, slamming into the cement wall, and echoed as alarm sirens began wailing.

The pops of gunfire amplified in volume tenfold. The door where Rupert had disappeared now burst open. Rupert staggered and fell back into the server room. He regained his footing and fired again through the open doorway. Jana jammed her shoulder into Cade’s midsection, literally tackling him through the door and into the stairwell. They hit the cement floor and landed with a painful thud. A sizzling sound ripped past Cade’s left ear. The bullet passed in between them and slammed against the far wall of the stairwell, exploding. Tiny cement and lead shards pelted back at them. Jana recoiled from the sting in her flesh. She ignored it and yanked Cade off the floor, “MOVEMOVEMOVE!” she yelled in one repeating sound, forcing them down the stairs and out of the line of fire.

Outside, on the roof of the W Hotel, the HRT agent recoiled as loud noises burst into his headset. “Paula D! Paula D! This is four! I’ve got an alarm sounding. Loud popping noises! I can’t confirm but . . . oh hell no! Gunfire! I say again, I’ve got gunfire somewhere between sixteen and eighteen!”

Agent Murphy responded by yelling into the comm, “All cooks. All cooks. This is Paula D; you are code red! I say again, you are red and free. Breach the oven, I repeat, breach the oven!”

Even before the order to breach was given, Kyle MacKerron was in a full sprint from the train platform, knocking down two civilians in the process. He flung off his outer over shirt, exposing the telltale navy blue windbreaker embroidered with huge yellow letters, FBI. He bolted down the long, translucent corridor leading under the Thoughtstorm building and tore into the fanny pack tight against his waist, yanking out the MP5 submachine gun.
