Solar Warden

Omega protocol Part 77

Meanwhile SW-3 was on a direct approach up the hill seeing Knight and the others getting in position.

"Yamada, hurry they are close to the door. I don't want to use the sniper rifles," Knight informed as Yamada already jumped of the bike and sprinted up the hill. He pulled the rifle from his back and went down in position to target.

The aliens were now close to the cave door busy with carrying the others. So only one had a weapon in this hands and the others none at all.

"SW-3 are you in position?" Yamada asked.

Two replied with, "yes, sir." The others were just getting there. He assigned the targets then gave the command to fire. Only two went down. At once he started to target the next.

The aliens sped up and pulled the fallen into the entrance of the cave. Now the one with the rifle shot into the direction of Yamada but missed badly.

Next shots went off and all aliens lay on the ground.

"Move!" Knight called out and all ran to the entrance with their rifles in the hands.

All of a sudden the huge cave door started to close. The fallen were already inside.

"Captain, I need status of the inside," Knight radioed.

"No one to see, but I don't recommend getting locked in," came the reply.

It didn't matter. They were too slow. The door moved further down and closed. Two of the turtle faces were before it. They were waking up now.

"Increase the level of the microwaves one step and fire," Knight ordered.

This was now for humans a critical level which would be not used for stunning. They fired.

"Good. Now secure the area at our last position. We don't know what comes next," Knight switched to radio. "Ryan, I need Jones and some bindings for our prisoners. I don't know if handcuffs are sufficient."

"I send him with the needed supplies," came the reply. "I guess we need now a plan to open that door?"

"Yes, I am already thinking, but C4 I guess won't do it," Knight replied.
