David paced the room.

"Just let me go," Alex said.

"It's a trap," David replied. "They get you, they're coming in after us."

"Then why don't we just all go," Gordon said.

The clocked beeped on 24 hours. Time was almost up.

Alex pulled something out of his pocket. He turned to David and shot him. David seized and fell to the ground.

"Gordon," Alex said. "Take him to the safe room. There's emergency weaponry, food, and water to last a year. An orbital strike can't even get through what that room is made out of. I'm going up there."

Gordon grabbed David's arms and dragged him to a a hole in the wall and put him inside.

He turned back to Alex. "Stay safe," he said.

Alex nodded. Gordon went inside and pressed a button, closing the door.

Alex ascended the ladder. As soon as the manhole opened, the men yanked him out of the hole. They patted him down. He was marched to an open truck, handcuffed, and thrown inside. His world was plunged into darkness.
