"Sypher, why don't you take point and make sure we don't run into any trouble on the way out. Mercea and I will pull up the rear." She looked the group in front of them over. "You stay in the middle and keep her moving. Whoever it is that's coming after us will surely catch us if we don't hurry."
"Right away ma'am," Sypher affirmed, taking the lead.

A green light started flashing; slow at first, then faster and faster until it was almost a constant light. There was a lonely beep before the grenade blew. The hall filled with dust and smoke. Outside light filtered dimly through.
