Chapter 11 –

Frank pushed open the exit letting his momentum carry him through to the landing. Lightfoot followed by Carson and a loud explosion. All three fell to the ground from the force, but didn’t suffer any serious injuries.

“What the hell was that? A little warning would have been nice,” Carson yelled.

“We’re out, you’re alive, and as far as I see it, you have no reason to be bitching.” Frank stood and checked his SCAR. “Let’s get moving, we don’t have time to waste.” Frank took the steps three at a time to the door of Level 4.

He pulled it open, his mind unprepared for the horrors on the other side.

The silo, designed to be self-sustaining in case of emergency had what they called a “green room.” An entire floor dedicated to growing vegetables and spices, as well as an area where they kept chickens and goats.

The smell of manure was to be expected, the sight of a few of the “greens keepers” also expected. No need to put them down, the security measure on this floor was acid in the sprinkler system. The ground smoldered around the bodies of some of the employees. Special lights managed to stay lit and it illuminated bits of fur and feathers floating around the room.

“Great, what do we have to deal with now?” Carson asked.

Frank took a breath before answering. “Well, we don’t need to worry about any of those things here, but we do have to figure out a way to get across the room before getting soaked with sulphuric acid.”

“You have some serious issues, man,” Carson said.

Frank ignored the comment, but had to agree. The loss of his family had changed him, and not for the better. He tossed out his moral compass and exchanged it for the ability not to give a damn about those he hurt. He wondered if he ever went too far, or if he covered up his loneliness with a few too many drinks to “help” him sleep. Not that it mattered now; they were going to die, so thinking about the past was pointless.

Lightfoot poked his head in front of Frank. “Looks like they set them off, or is this more pressure plate stuff?” he said as he pointed toward the goopy piles of people and animals that once were.

“Worse,” Frank said, “motion sensors, they’ll keep going off.”

Carson kicked the door behind them. “Dammit, you knew we couldn’t get past this level and you made us come down here anyway.”

Frank turned and grabbed Carson. He shoved him against the door and put the full weight of his body into Carson as he pressed. “Listen, you little prick, you used to be a good team member, and then you went and got yourself screwed up on drugs and gambling. I could care less if you make it out of here, but if you do anything to jeopardize my life, or screw this mission up, I will put you in the ground myself. Got me?”

Frank didn’t ease his hold until Carson nodded imperceptibly.
