Recon iii
~ Garrick, Helick, Ichiro, Zigor, Martha, and Nico gathered in the living room. Shea was filling them in.
“So we killed him?” Garrick asked.
Shea nodded. “Yup.”
Helick ran a hand over his face. “And that’s how he changed.”
“With the help of Ava’s stone, yes.”
“Did he say where Sven’s hiding?” Zigor asked.
Shea pursed her lips.
“Ah crap,” Helick said. “I feel the bad news coming.”
“He’s held up at a maximum-security prison.”
They looked at her, confused.
“A prison?” Garrick asked.

~Daniel, Helick, and Ichiro geared up for their recon mission, while Shea gave them an overview of the prison again. They all suspected it could be a trap, but Shea was confident that it was not. “And remember, the primary aim is recon,” Marx said to the three. “If you can’t get in without making a stir, don’t go in, surveil the property. We need to find out if Sven is alive and the extent of his operations in Penthart.” “What do we do if things go sideways?” Helick asked, putting on his gloves. “Make it out alive.” Helick nodded. “While you guys do that, I’ll be taking a trip back to Pentorium, speak to Vescovi and the others in person.” Marx walked off, and She

~The elevator opened and before Helick, Daniel, and Ichiro could step out, Marx and Anabella, who had been waiting for them, stepped in. The door closed again. “Welcome to Anax Corp. I trust you gentlemen had a pleasant ride here,” she said to them. “I could get used to having a chopper on hand,” Helick commented. She gave him a small smile and a nod before typing in a password with the regular elevator buttons. The elevator started moving. No one spoke on the way down. When the numbers stopped lighting up at ‘B’ for the basement level, but the elevator kept descending, no one asked questions. The elevator dinged on its stop, the panel behind them opening. “Gentlemen,” Anabella stepped out before them. They walked into the middle of an underground factory

STAGE I – GETTING THE TEAM IN PLACE Location: Penthart Supermax - Inside Cellblocks A and B Alpha Team The prison transport truck pulled up at the gate. After checking the exterior of the vehicle, along with the badges of the guards who came in the truck, the correctional officers at the outside gate radioed for the first gate to open. The transport went through, and the gate started closing behind them. The second gate did not open until the locks for the first clicked in place. The same process repeated when they came to stop at the main entrance. Bryan drove the van, with Yuri in the passenger seat, into the compound. They remained there as the correctional officers came to escort the prisoners out. All of them were vampires or werewolves. Both gr

Location: Penthart Supermax - Inside Cellblocks A Alpha Team “Target is down. I repeat target is down,” Marx heard Ichiro say through the comms. Marx stood facing one of the hybrid werewolves Sven created. Around him on the floor were bodies of other werewolves. Through the constant chatter in his ears, he knew that four of them were in Block B while the other four were roaming Block A. Ichiro and his team put down the ninth. “I have eyes on one of the hybrids in Block A. Does anyone have eyes on the others?” “We have two of them on the second floor.”

STAGE IV AND V - CALL IN THE HUMANS AND LIGHT THE EVIDENCE ON FIRE Location: Anax Corp - Mission Control On the all-clear of Javier, all of Marx’s men and the vampires left. They used the secret tunnels that snaked underneath the grounds of the facility to make their leave. Shea and Hana remained in the control room. Anabella gave the order. “Release phase 2 of the gas.” “Releasing.” “The humans are coming to,” Shea said. “Hana, as we rehearsed.” The comms went dead, and Anabella waited. A few minutes later, th

~Anabella and Philippe stood by the glass wall, looking out into the city. They were on the uppermost floor of Pentalum, Vescovi’s headquarters. From there, they could see the towers of the other four buildings, each at the point of their pentagram. Anax, NexTeq, Vancor, Pentalum, and Salcom International marked the five corners of Pentorium. The door opened to the office, and Vescovi rushed in with his assistant following him. He looked surprised to see Philippe and Anabella waiting for him. “Was there a meeting?” He glanced at the woman who came in with him, and she shook her head, adjusting her glasses on her nose. “Not officially,” Anabella said. Vescovi creased his eyebrows, looking from one friend to the next. He dismissed his assistant, who closed the door behind her.

~Salvay entered his home, shrugging out of his jacket. Before the tailor-made Italian masterpiece touched the floor, his butler was there to catch it. He entered his living room, where a fire was burning in the hearth. He didn’t bother to roll up the sleeve of his shirt as he pushed his hand into the fire to press a button hidden by the flames. His hand came away, neither shirt nor skin seared. Without a sound, a section of the wall to the right of the fireplace slid open. The door closed behind him as he made his way down the stairs concealed in pitch-blackness. Pushing open the door at the foot of the stairs, he entered a lit room. Inside was Passerini, making notes on a chart. The man looked up for a second, acknowledging Salvay’s presence before he went back to his work. “Should the process take this long?”

~Marx followed Roan away from the rest of the group. The noise of the festivities grew distant as they moved to the western edge of the village. The initial wariness of the people shifted to curiosity as they followed the example of their leader and gave the vampires and the werewolves the benefit of a doubt. War and death marred their past, but their future, though on the verge of another war, would see them standing as allies, come what may. “Where are we going?” “To our Shaman,” Roan answered. “For what purpose?” Roan stopped to face him. “Do you know how werewolves and vampires came to be?” Marx shook his head. Celeste had imparted much knowledge about her world, but mostly she pretended that side of her life n
