Chapter Fifteen

Vin was tossing and turning in his bunk, unable to sleep, trying to come up with a safe plan for what he had come to think of as the insertion of Rule, Cat, and Morgan into the City, when a runner came skidding into his quarters.

“Sir, tilt-rotors.”

Vin grabbed his combat vest, rifle, and pistol and followed the boy as he ran up the escalator, to the machine room and out to one of the observation points. Matos was on duty.

“What have we got?”

“So far we’ve got three tilt-rotors inbound.”

Vin glanced at his watch. It was 0000 hours. They always liked to insert teams in the early part of the morning. They passed over the Mall and continued north. Then they spilt up into three different directions. Matos pulled out his map, and they tracked where the tilt-rotors landed.

“The first one landed at the cemetery,” Matos said.

The second swooped down and dropped its team.

“That’s the car dealership.”

“I’ll bet you the last one will be the high school,” Tanner said.

“You’re on. It’s going to be the river.”

The tilt-rotor banked and landed on the baseball field of the high school.

“What’s going on?” Matos said.

Vin thought for a minute and then said, “When you insert teams into an area with high-value targets, you are trying to find somebody, not just observing. They’re looking for us,” Vin said.

“Yeah, I think you’re right,” Matos replied.

“And they may have just given me the way to get Rule and the others inside safely.”

Vin climbed down the ladder and went back to his quarters. He collapsed onto his cot and was asleep almost as soon as his head hit the pillow. He had his plan, and it would work.
