The office door opened and Chuck joined all the CDC officers in the briefing room. Tu and Jay, along with their entire squad, were prepared to move out and attempt to bring the situation under control. Eddie and his team were ready to jump in and help the Washington officers if they couldn't get back to Atlanta.

Trang was finishing up his briefing. "This is going to be a rescue mission. DHS wants us to start at the Rayburn House and secure it. We'll kill all the Zs that we can but our main goal is locating and rescuing survivors. The reports are indicating that there could already be close to a thousand or more infected moving through the city. I'm guessing that number is going to go a lot higher before we're done.

"So, let's find the people that are hiding in the building. If they're in a safe place, we'll leave them there and radio the location in to the Metro Police. If we find survivors and it's not a defensible location, we'll have to play it by ear. We don't have the manpower to protect large groups of people out in the open."

Jay spoke up. "I just got off of the phone with the Department of Homeland Security. Everybody's jumping in to help. The Metro PD's SWAT Team is on the way, the FBI's Hostage Response Team has been mobilized, and the ATF's and DEA's tactical teams are also going to be out there. Metro SWAT is going to start at the Air and Space Museum and the FBI's HRT will start at the Capitol.

"Other than that, the DHS didn't have any specifics of where these other teams are going to be or what they were going to be doing. All they could tell me was that the President ordered every federal agency with an enforcement branch to do their part. Let's be very careful and try not to shoot any other cops. This is what we do but these other guys have stayed out of the zombie fighting business until today. We don't need any blue on blue shooting."

Tu nodded to Chuck. "What are you guys going to do?"

McCain motioned to Marshall. "Eddie, we're heading south. The FAA has grounded all flights but we got a special dispensation to fly. Tu, we've got a Blackhawk that's going to land on your roof and take us to Reagan National. The DHS was kind enough to arrange that for us. Y'all want a lift? It sounds like traffic is pretty rough and an air insertion would save you a lot of time and be a lot safer than trying to fight your way inside that big building."

"Yeah, Chuck, that would be great," Trang answered.

"Just figure out where you want him to drop you off. Their ETA is fifteen minutes."

"I was kind of hoping you guys would be grounded so you could help us," said Jay, with a smile.

"Sorry, Jay. Two officers from our other team are about to get started without us.
