Chapter 7

Tony sat down hard. He wasn’t sure what to think right now, only that this was going to get him in deep shit. He looked at the report in front of him again, this time trying not to focus so much on the ages of the dead but the names there and where they had worked. All the dead and their ranks with ages were of the people killed in the ambush of Lauren and Hawkins. But the real kicker was that all of them were from the United States and serving under him in some capacity. The men that served their country were getting younger and younger all the time. And dying for no other reason than greed and stupidity.

The report had been given to him by Lauren earlier that morning without a word spoken between them. It had been a chance meeting, her bumping into him as she walked by him. It took him several seconds to realize that she’d given him something. And now he had information that he was sure he wasn’t supposed to ever see.

“Sir?” He looked up at his assistant, Private Mark Wayne, and smiled. He wasn’t sure that it looked good or not, but the man smiled back. “I thought I heard you say my name. I’ve been working on the computers for over an hour now.”

“What’s wrong with them now?” Mark told him they’d been running slowly since the department came in and did some upgrades on them. Tony glanced down at the report and the names on it and his mind went into overdrive. More puzzle pieces were falling into place all around him. “When was that?”

“Last week. Oh, that’s right, you were out with the emergency. Yes, sir. They came in saying that all the computers needed to be upgraded. Then they said that the phones needed to be replaced as well. If you ask me, they look just like they did before, but I’m not a computer whiz like some are.” Neither was he, but Tony would bet his last dollar that nothing more than a bug had been in the “upgrade” to the computers. “I’m ready to call the computer help desk. I’ll be right here if you need me, sir.”

Tony waved him off and said nothing. He eyed the computer, then the phone. He wasn’t going to be using them for anything important from now on. And on his way home, he was picking up a burner phone, one that only he had the number for. Christ, he thought of Lauren and Hawkins. How to contact them?

He was sure that they knew. Even if they didn’t, Tony had a feeling that they would go to other means to contact him if they needed him. He did have a sudden thought, one that frightened him a little. He didn’t want them to think he had anything to do with this. But then he realized she would never have given him what she had if she suspected him of anything.
