Chapter Thirteen

Lance

I supervised as the infected bodies were loaded into the truck. They had been executed earlier by firing squad and were being moved to another site to be burned and buried. That way we had deniability if they were ever found. I was sure there were plenty of bodies buried around here.

Our experiments hadn’t been as successful as Breton wanted. He had hoped to control them, but they didn’t respond to commands. They didn’t seem to understand what people were saying and since pain didn’t bother them Breton had kept a few of their brains for study. He had ideas about neural implants that could help control their movements.

I understood why he wanted them so badly. If they could be put on a battlefield, they would be unstoppable. The military would pay a fortune for them. Something told me Breton had already considered this. He worked with the military on a classified project over ten years ago. The files were sealed, but I had my suspicions that x01 had been around longer than I knew. Even with my level of clearance though, I couldn’t access those files.

We had operatives out looking for Reese and Spratt. That was assuming they weren’t lying dead out in the desert somewhere. We found the tunnel they used to escape.

I had sent men on ahead to block the main roads. They weren’t getting away this time.

Two guards dumped the final body on the pile. This one hadn’t been on the subway. It was the technician who had given up the code to the fridge. That type of behavior would not be tolerated.

They got into the cab of the truck and drove towards the gate.

The sun was up now. I got into my car to head to Trinity. It was the only town nearby and if Reese and Spratt were to head anywhere, it would be there.

Breton still wanted Spratt alive so they could extract the antivirus from him. More of it was being created, but at the moment he had the only useful sample. He also had three vials of x01. We needed the antivirus now more than ever.

I wasn’t going to risk it being released again. We might not be as lucky next time. Once I had it safely contained, I would kill both of them.

Checking my gun was fully loaded, I started the car.

I didn’t like feeling like this. Like I wasn’t in control of the situation. I helped run a major corporation on a daily basis; I wasn’t going to let two children get the better of me.

I started at the bottom in Gene Pharm. I had to claw my way to the top and I stepped on everyone else to do it and I didn’t care. If they were too weak to take me down then they weren’t worthy of the job.

Breton’s son was a waste. Just out of college, he spent his days drinking his father’s money or gambling it away. He would never take over the company. That honor could go to me, but I had to prove I was worthy.
