IERA Holding Facility <Date Forthcoming>
The IERA staff Manager Reece Day, looked out over the gathered agents talking together in the Common Room. As she approached the front of the room the conversations grew quiet. When she raised her hand, the room was silent.
"Attention all staff, we have a change of protocol, (a groan goes through the room but is quickly hushed), Our Prisoner Roland Drake is being moved to a Level 2 facility. The Echelon have asked for Drake to be moved. " She looks down at the roster and adds, "Droit and Fierro, you will accompany these officers as extra enforcement should the need arise." Again she looks around the room, "Departure is in 30 minutes sharp, Dismissed."
The other team members look at the two men and nod in their direction. Droit and Fierro head down to get suited up.
Herman Droit, IERA Agent Type A - 8 year veteran within IERA.
Sterling Fierro, IERA Agent Type E - 1 year recruit within IERA.
As their getting ready the two men talk together, Fierro asks how things are at home, Droit smiles and tells him that Molly is still expecting, only 6 months along, but they aren't worried.. This is their 5th child. One boy at 12, then twin girls at 9 and the last boy at 5. Sure the pregnancy was a surprise but they love kids. Droit had recently gotten a promotion to Lt, and the extra money from the promotion would help them to manage the extra mouth to feed. When asked Fierro proudly talks of his recent marriage, Helen looked beautiful in her mom's wedding gown. Can't believe he's been married for only 3 months!!
They chat a little more and then check each others gear to be sure its all sealed properly.
They head back up to the departure point. There is the security van, heavily reinforced, 4 SWAT agents are also on board. They wave to the police and head over to the Charger "We get the cool vehicle for this escort," Droit tosses the keys to Fierro. Fierro grins and gets behind the steering wheel.
The SWAT cops play a game of Rock, Paper, Scissors to see who goes where. Two head to the front of the vehicle the other two stay behind. Roland Drake is brought to the convoy vehicle by non other than Chromium Condor, he is handed over to the SWAT cops and they bring him inside the vehicle. Everyone climbs in and the convoy heads out.
Mission is going uneventfully, its a 3 hour drive and more than half over when things start to happen. A couple souped-up SUV's start dogging our convoy just after we pass Chattanooga. For some reason the transport vehicle slows down and pulls over to the side of the road. Fierro slides past it and pulls over just ahead of it. The all hell breaks loose.
The Cops exit the cab and come back at the SUV's with weapons drawn. Within seconds, the lead SUV unloads an armored man. The SWAT team opens fire on him but he evades their attack. Some other creature comes out of the SUV, it looks like an Alien reject but lunges at Henry Samuelson, somehow missing him. Droit runs down to make sure the prisoner is still secured. Another agent further down shoots at the cop stunning him. Another costumed character comes out of the SUV and runs into the security van, without opening its doors! Officer Oscar Fiens grabs his head and yells in agony.
Things are moving really fast now, Chromium Condor comes down and tries to hit the Agent who dives under their SUV, causing CC to hit Oscar and take him out of the fight. The Alien attacks Henry and nearly cuts him in half. Oscar even though stunned nearly vomits in his mouth. The Alien then charges at Droit and cuts into him nearly decapitating him in one shot. The van rocks as something is happening inside, when the doors open the other costumed figure steps out with Drake in tow. They head over and get into SUV 1, a second Drake is seen leaving and getting into vehicle 2. They drive off.
=================================
Level 37 facility.
James Garcia was happy he had been chosen for this assignment, it meant he would get a good bonus upon successfully completing it! He never even thought it wouldn't succeed!
His actions in the fight allowed the other powered people to do what they did best. He's not sure that eviscerating the enemy was a good thing but it was done!
He did feel good about taking out the Chromium Condor though, maybe that would be worth more? Hopefully.
He did look forward to his next assignment, that was certain!
