EVERTON, VERMONT

2:51 AM EST

GORDIE BLAKE, POWELL’S second in command, had been left in charge of the small contingent assigned to remain outside the base. So far his duties had consisted mostly of updating Ward Mountain on the progress. Since the radio was unable to reach anyone inside Dream Sky, his reports had been limited to “No word yet.”

Not this time.

“Crystal? Gordon Blake. I’ve heard from the team. Dream Sky security forces have been neutralized, and our people are doing a floor-by-floor roundup of other personnel.”

“Hold on,” she said.

“Sure.”

The line went dead for a moment.

When Crystal came back on, she said, “I’ve got Rachel on with us now. Can you repeat what you just told me?”

Blake did.

“How long do you think until the base is fully secured?” Rachel asked.

“No ETA yet, ma’am, but from the sounds of it, that place is pretty big so it could take a while.”

“Any casualties on our side?”

“None were reported.”

“Good,” she said. “Let’s hope it stays that way.

“We do have a potential problem, though,” he said. He explained about the phone call Harden had received and the general consensus that Project Eden forces might be on the way there.

“Any way to know for sure?” Rachel asked.

“Not from here. I was actually hoping you could check on that.”

“I’ll get someone on it,” Crystal said. “No promises, so keep your eyes and ears open.”
