It took twenty minutes, then two men came running out the front door through a fringe of brush and into the open. Lam was less than twenty feet from them. He cut both down with silenced rounds, and they jolted backward and sprawled in the green growth, never to move again.

“We’ve had two come out in front,” Murdock said on the net.

Five minutes passed, then Sadler came on the radio.

“The wall at the road is starting to move. It’s going like a snail with foot problems, sliding to the left. If they want fresh air inside they have to leave both doors open.”

“Take out any men who show themselves,” Murdock said.

“Nobody coming out,” Sadler said. “Behind the door is a blank wall maybe eight to ten feet away. Looks like it’s all concrete.”

“Don’t risk any shots inside until we know more than we do now,” Murdock said.

They waited ten minutes. Nothing happened.

Murdock eased up from behind his cover tree. “Who has tear gas grenades?” he said on the radio. There were two responses.

“Down the intake air vent?” Omar Rafii asked.

“No, they could have filters on the intake. One man to the rear door. Climb up the side of the hill and get a good throw to punch the grenade into the bunker as far as possible. Who?”

“Rafii on the rear truck door,” he said.

“Sadler. I’ll come around to the front. Wait for me Rafii, we’ll hit them both at the same time.”

The front door was still in shadows and darkness. The faint fracturing of the black sky showed dimly in the east. It would be dawn in ten minutes.

“Let’s move it before we lose the dark,” Murdock said.

Rafii scrambled up the side of the hill and crawled to the top of the opening. He hung over it, looking into the bunker. “I can see inside,” he said. “Two of the big crates of plut. No people. I can get the tear gas in about thirty feet.”

“Wait,” Murdock said.

Sadler had ghosted up through the darkness and picked up Lam, who showed him where the door was. It was a regular-looking wooden door, now hanging open, giving out a faint glow of lights. A drape of heavy cloth hung two feet in back, blocking off the light and the interior. Jaybird found a long stick, pushed up near the side of the door, and rammed the stick into the drape, then pushed it to one side.

Sadler grinned and pulled the pin on the grenade. “I’m ready, Rafii, how about you?”

“Go,” Rafii said. They both threw their tear gas grenades into the bunker and retreated into the fading darkness.

Murdock heard the small popping sound as the small charge blew the fragile tear gas cover off the cylinder and the gas spewed out into the bunker. He heard a cry of anger, then a weapon fired and three slugs whispered out the front door. The SEALs were all behind solid cover and none were hit.

They waited. No one came out either door.

Murdock scowled. “All right, men, they could have gas masks in there to counter any gasses from the plut.
