The vehicles in front of us stopped so 10K stopped as well. We all climbed out of our red car. 5K ran past me to climb up and sit on the hood. I shut his door for him.

10K went and stood by where 5K was sitting. I walked over to stand next to him. Red came to my other side.

"How you holding up?" Red asked 10K.

"I'm tired. That's all." 10K told her.

Murphy got out of the truck in front of us. He looked back at us before looking over at Warren and Sun Mei who were at the hood of the truck. They were doing something to the engine but I couldn't see from here.

Warren, Sun Mei, and Murphy were by the front seat of the truck. I sighed and walked over there ,wanting to know what's going on. Sun Mei started the truck. She had tablet in front of her hooked up to the radio. There was static before a voice came through.

"Operation Bite Mark. Your signal was received. Lieutenant Warren? Lieutenant Warren?" Kaya's voice came through the tablet and her face appeared on the screen.

"Copy you ,Kaya in the Sky-a. This is Operation Bite Mark. Over." Warren said.

"Copy, Lieutenant Warren. Locked on your signal. Northwest. Route 229." Kaya said.

"That's a roger on our location. Over." Warren confirmed.

"You need to change course to intercept the man. Taking Lucy to a new drop point." Kaya told us.

"Change course?" Murphy questioned.

"Intercepted a new transmission from Zona with new coordinates." Kaya stated.

"What are the new coordinates?" Murphy asked ,sounding panicked. I don't blame him. I would be freaking out too if Jeff was in Lucy's position.

"The Man's new heading..." Static filled the truck ,cutting off Kaya's voice.

"Where is she?! Where is Lucy?!" Murphy exclaimed. Murphy looked at Sun Mei. "Get her back."

Then we could hear Kaya's voice again, we just couldn't make out what she was saying. Sun Mei grabbed a pencil to write down the coordinates that Kaya will give her if we can understand what she says.

"Copy?" Kaya's voice came through clear.

"No!" Warren, Murphy, and I told her.

"No, we didn't not copy. Can you repeat those coordinates? Repeat coordinates. Over. " Warren told.

"New coordinates. 48 degrees North. 122 degrees West. It's called Mount Casey. Repeat. Mount Casey." Kaya repeated what she had told us during the static.

"Copy you ,Northern Light. Mount Casey. Coordinates Received." Warren said.

"I looked up the coordinates on satellite, and I have no data on our NSA records. Once your through the entry point, you're flying blind." Kaya told us.

"Keep trying." Warren told Kaya. Then she looked between Sun Mei and I. "Worst case scenario, we improvise." I nodded. Warren looked back at the tablet. "Any word from CZ?"

"Negative. And it's been 12 hours." Kaya said solemnly.

"I'm sorry. We'll contact you when we get to Mount Casey ,Northern Light. Bitemark ,out." Warren said.

"Northern Light ,out." Kaya said ,sounding really sad. Then the signal cut.

"Let's get prepared to go." Warren said.

I nodded. I walked back to Red, 5K, and 10K. 10K and Red looked at me expectantly.

"Alright, everybody, let's go!" Warren called before I could start explaining.
