The flight back proved quiet and uneventful. Mykal thought about the events of the day and the discoveries they made. After seeing the size of the Soso army with their foreign allies he feared for his friend Towbar and Towbar’s people. Based on numbers alone it didn’t look good as far as holding the Pass or for survival for that matter. The numbers the Sosos were mounting with their allies staggered the imagination. Mykal tried to think of a good reason to go back to his world in order to get a larger army with greater weapons so he could end this war once and for all. But he knew there were members of Congress who were against this mission so to ask to increase the size and scope of the mission would be out of the question. He regretted not taking bigger artillery when he had the chance. They would have to make do with what they had been supplied with.

“…so the first thing I wanna do Towbar, is rescue or find the remains of that guy with the brief case,” Mykal said when he and Towbar were alone. “And we’ll rescue the other people too. Once I know I have that case secured then I’m gonna help you as much as I can with this war. Their numbers just blew me away.”

“I truly appreciate that, my friend. Now I know Zizmon-Tarl is bringing forces from around the world. I fear for my people. We are greatly outnumbered. I fear--” he stopped. He couldn’t bear to utter the words of doom and gloom.

“Let’s go talk to the experts and see what would be the best way to accomplish this.”

“I am grateful that you gave the Goblins on the flatboats a taste of your power, my friend.”

“Believe me, if I woulda known we woulda come across them I woulda brought some bigger fire power and wiped all their asses out,” Mykal laughed. “They look evil.”

Mykal and Towbar joined Captain Diaz who was in the middle of debriefing Major Chick and the two battalion commanders, Innes and Taylor. Mykal watched the reporters and cameramen of camp surround those who returned from the mission to hear their stories. He watched Marines and others of the camp join the returning Marines to learn what they experienced. He saw his friends join with others from the first stay in Towbar’s world to relay their exploits. Though everyone came from different backgrounds it amazed him how much everyone acted in a similar manner. The reporters had a portable viewing station to watch videotape from the flight into the danger zone.

Danny Weller, the injured police officer, had been taken to the make shift medical station behind the pit. Mykal told the pilots and their crews to make sure the helicopters were ready to fly out again as soon as possible. He wanted them to chow down, rest up and be ready to fly out on a moment’s notice.

Mykal caught sight of all the pilots returning from the mobile mess hall with trays of food.
