"These are the feeds to outside, there's been movement all day in the settlement. We've seen soldiers go into trucks and wait there, they're armed. We've also counted up to ten military vehicles with heavy artillery in the roofs of them"
"Wait" she pointed at the screen "which feed is that?"
"South entrance, in the fence"
Morgan kept looking at the screen. It showed what appeared to be a man of a superior rank going inside a tent, people were walking around him. He didn't come out, a minute later he came around the corner again and entered the rent one more time.
"The footage is looping" she said "we've been hacked".
Morgan walked out of the control room and grabbed the walkie of one of the guards.
"Control room to fence gate 3 respond" Morgan kept walking down the hall towards the stairwell that lead up to the roof of the compound
"Fence gate 3 come in" the walkie shouted back.
"Your feed is looping, I need visual confirmation that everything is okay."
"Visual confirmation in process"
Morgan was halfway up the ladder when the walkie sparked up again.
"Morgan switch to frequency 202.1" Eric said.
She moved the dial to the frequency and got off the ladder.
"What's wrong?" She asked, opening the door to the roof.
"Come back to the apartment. I'll go to the fence and-"
Both of them were interrupted when the south entrance of the fence expanded into an explosion, then lit up on fire. Morgan felt the expansion wave hit her all the way up, she looked at how the trucks began to pour in in the distance. A siren began to blare through the city.
Morgan watched as how the dauntless trucks began to march to the fence, but by the time they reached up there, Amity would be attacked.
She turned on her heels and ran down the stairs as fast as she could, meeting up with Eric on the way to her apartment.
He handed Aleks and took Morgan by the arm to make her listen.
"Get to the shelter in Erudite, make them be prepared just in case we need to start tending to wounded people. Try to make contact with the people in the department and request backup" he said, then moved Morgan to walk down the hall towards the train.
Another explosion resonated in the compound, making people start to exit their apartments and head to the halls and walk outside, dauntless guards were adjusting their equipment.
"Armory come in" she heard Eric said behind her, keeping his hand on her arm and making her walk, she was holding Aleks, and the little one didn't seem to comprehend what was going on.
"Armory, this is Craig, come in sir"
"I need Creed in the train, right now" he said in the walkie.
They stopped at the line to board the train. The men had to stay back and dauntless, and the woman needed to make sure the children were taken care of before joining in battle. The initial plan dictated that the children should be taken care of by the woman of Amity, but that seemed impossible on its own. Amity was in a lot of trouble.
With the mothers taking care of the children Eric was down on fighting power by a 48%. He didn't like those odds.
"Can't fucking believe it" he scoffed, aside from the noise around them, Morgan heard him. "The Department was meant to be the first line of defense, and we were going to be told if we needed to strike. We were given no warnings at all. And where are they now huh?"
