Present Day

“R oom service.”

Dylan Kane grinned at Atlas attempting a girly voice. It came off rather disturbing. He walked over to the door, not bothering to check the peephole.

Nobody could fake that voice.

He opened the door and smiled at his former Delta Force comrades. “Right on time, gentlemen.” He stepped aside, exchanging thumping hugs with each of them, only Atlas’ slightly painful. “I was expecting a nice little French Maid’s outfit.”

Atlas dropped into a chair by the window. “We’re not in France, otherwise I would have.” He jerked a chunky thumb at Niner. “Besides, I’d have had him constantly trying to look under my skirt. Seeing what a real man is packing, he’d have been scarred for life.”

Niner did a Michael Jackson junk-grab with one hand, and flipped the bird with the other. “I’ve never had any complaints.”

“That’s because you’ve only dated polite women.”

Kane grinned, this the only thing he missed about the Unit.

The camaraderie.

The life of a spy was a lonely, solitary one. Even when with people, they were rarely your friend, and almost always had an agenda.

But with the Unit? Everyone had your back, everyone was your friend.

He missed it.

Though he’d never go back.

“If you two are done with your swordplay, I have some toys for you boys.” He pointed to the bed where several large duffel bags were sitting. “Have at it.” He patted one of them. “But this one is mine.”

The boys attacked, the gear quickly unpacked, sorted, inspected, and doled out, while he hooked up the comms and jacked into Langley. “Control, this is Whiskers, do you copy, over?”

Dawson gave him a look. “Whiskers?”

He shrugged. “I was feeling frisky.”

“Whiskers, Control Actual, we read you.”

Kane smiled at his friend’s voice, switching it to VOX so the entire room could participate. “Hey buddy, you’re on speaker with some old friends.”

A round of greetings was shouted deliberately incoherently at the radio.

Kane laughed. “What’s new since yesterday?”

Leroux brought them up to date about the manhunt. “The bottom line is they haven’t been spotted since last night. The police have found the van they used to leave the museum grounds, and it was parked near a marina just north of the city where a boat has been stolen. They think the professors might have taken it because the timing fits.”

“Can they track the boat?” asked Dawson.

“We haven’t heard anything on that yet. We’re trying to find out.”

“What about those social media profiles?” asked Kane. “I was looking at them and they’re complete bullshit.”

“We’ve been able to prove they’re fake. We’re still tracing back to see who created them. We’ve linked them back into all kinds of activist groups. Animal rights, climate change, save the whales. All kinds of things. It looks like whoever is behind this provides support to all these types of groups by supplying them with social media followers for their causes, so they look more legitimate. They generate posts and try to get things trending that shouldn’t.”

Niner inspected a Glock. “So, it’s a big fake news type of scam.
