Logan and Hank spent the next two hours assembling two teams of brave volunteers. They had hundreds of people to choose from, but preferred to keep it limited to those they already knew. In total they ended up with twenty on each team. Logan and Hank chose to be on the NYC team because that was deemed to be the more challenging task of the two. By this point, the foundation of Hank’s new White House had been poured and the frame was built. The building even had a roof on it now. Hank hoped that when they returned from this mission, the building might be ready to act as a shelter.

President Kaplan, Garrett, Christina, and Noel all chose to be on the local team, where they would protect the crafts inside the machine shop. Thomas and Sierra joined the NYC team. It didn’t phase Sierra that she was pregnant, she wanted to help out in any way she could.

For the NYC team, a small plane was loaded up with food, water, sleeping bags, and most important of all the anti-alien guns that Hank developed. Hank also threw in some regular guns, he thought they might come in handy at some point. They had no way of knowing how long they would have to remain in New York for, so they needed to be prepared. Hank hopped in the cockpit of the plane and fired her up, while the rest of the team got situated in the cabin. Hank, with his prior Air Force experience, wouldn’t have a problem flying the plane. Before the hatch was shut, the local team stood there and said their goodbyes and wished the NYC team good luck. The plane took off across the grass lawn that acted as a runway.

The local team loaded a semi-truck with the essentials they would need. Although the machine shop was just across the street, it would take many trips of carrying items as opposed to one trip if they used the semi-trailer. Once inside the machine shop, they did a deep clean of the area, moving thing like spare engines out of the way, so they had room to set up cots throughout the main room.

“Garrett, do you have those landmines that Hank gave you?” President Kaplan said.

“Yeah, where do you want to put them?” Garrett said.

“I’ll show you,” President Kaplan said.

Garrett was clutching a large crate on wheels and pulled it outside to follow President Kaplan.

“You’ve got an interesting decision to make in the near future,” President Kaplan said.

“And what’s that?” Garrett said.

“Who are you gonna pick between Christina and Noel. You’ve got Noel, whose natural beauty makes people stare when she walks into a room. But then you’ve got Christina who is a little rough around the edges in the beauty category, but has definitely made an impression with her intelligence. She’s likely the more aggressive of the two in the sack, which can be good and bad depending on what you’re looking for,” President Kaplan said.
