“Team two in position.” Dace’s muffled voice came over the shared comm system. “Breach on your ready, team one.”

Luke and Wylie stood at the door of an old abandoned warehouse in the Foundry District as team one acting on one of the many leads they had generated. In full armor, they each turned away as a micro explosive, Luke’s specialty, detonated, disengaging the old rusted lock that prevented their entry. Team one quickly deployed upon access, clearing the space until they met Dace and their cousin Ryker, who had come in from different angles in similar fashion.

Declan and Ronan took point on opposing rooftops, watching for moving targets in full sniper mode. The tactical maneuvers of the O’Reillys reflected just how extensive their training was. It was also why they rarely missed a mark in any situation. They were paid well for what they did because they were recognized as the best.

This wasn’t a paid job. They were protecting their own this time. In cases such as these, the stakes were always higher because it was personal.

Unfortunately, it was the fifth empty threat that week. Wells wasn’t there – or Dunham – or Lainey. They were no closer to capturing the menace terrorizing their family. They were also no closer to determining if Dunham was indeed Wells. Sure, it made the most sense, but they were too smart to buy into the theory without concrete proof. For now, they were looking for two, maybe three threats.

They were chasing sightings picked up by the facial recognition software Liam continued to upgrade with each passing day. Several sightings of Dunham and Lainey had been picked up by his program all over the city, mostly around abandoned buildings and warehouses.

This particular building was thought to be the one due to the increased use of utilities, based on city resources that Liam hacked. They were even picking up a strong radio frequency in the area, narrowed to that building. When Liam tried to tap into whatever was coming out of that building, he ran into a few roadblocks. He found a pattern of frequency hopping, which meant someone was trying to hide what they were doing and their location.

Who would go to such lengths but someone with something to hide? Whoever was in there didn’t want to be detected. Frequency hopping is used to avoid interference of any kind. They were also using multiple antennae to cover a large geographical area, bouncing around the whole city of Portland. Wells and possibly Dunham and Lainey were wreaking nonstop havoc from there. Too large of a coincidence not to be them.

Liam engaged aerial recon by way of satellite and drones, using infrared, and was able to detect movement from multiple people within the building. It was likely that Wells, whoever he really was, had a full team of hackers housed in there, helping him do his dirty work.

There were moving bodies inside, all right. Once they breached the building, they came across a group of squatters.
