The mall was eerily quite, a ghostly remnant of a once thriving and popular recreational area. The men moved swiftly but carefully down the walkway, constantly scanning their surroundings for threats. Suddenly Xanders held up a fist and the group stopped. Xanders bent down and pointed to a nearly invisible thin wire stretching across the walkway. "Booby trap." Xanders whispered for Cassandra's sake as he carefully disarmed the explosive attached to the wire. "This means someone doesnt want intruders around here, keep your eyes open." Kirst reminded his squad then they began to walk again. Suddenly a side door opened and a rebel walked out trying to light a cigarette. The rebel's eyes widened in surprise as he went to draw his weapon. Xanders charged in and tried to gut the man with his bayonet, but the rebel twisted to the side and brought his gun up to aim at Xanders. Suddenly there was a loud bang and the rebel's head exploded into bits of blood, brains, and skull. Turk lowered the barrel of his sniper rifle as Xanders nodded his thanks. Kirst looked around as the sounds of shouting and running footsteps began to get closer. "Shit! Squad double time!" The men broke out into a run, Erik half dragging Cassandra with him as he occassionally looked behind them.
The group came to a halt after turning several corners and ducking into a dilapidated subway station. They were all panting as they stopped to catch their breath. "Ok, no more quick routes. We stick with the safe and secure ones. Riktof, find a map or something so we can plot a way out of here. Everyone else, take five." Erik nodded and went off to rummage around in a nearby security desk as the men either leaned against a wall or simply sat down to calm themselves.
