Send my Love - Adele~3rd Person POV~
"I think I know how Turnbull's gonna make his own country," Ray announces as he and Nathan barge in on Jessica, Sara and Hex. "When I saw how much dwarf star ore he had in that mine, I started to wonder, how could he transport such a heavy shipment? He'd have to use—," Hex cuts him off.
"The railroad," Hex pushes off the seat he was sitting in to join the two standing around the circular table.
"The railroad," Ray repeats.
"Okay, get to the part where we care, Ray," Sara ushers him to continue.
"I think he's gonna use the railroad and the dwarf star to... wait for it," Ray tries to pause for effect.
"I don't want to wait for it." Sara shakes her head.
"Close Summit Pass," Ray finishes.
"Oh, my God, Ray's right," Nate marvels as he looks at the map on the tv screen.
"Thank you."
"Summit Pass connects East/West via railroad," Nate explains.
"Not if Turnbull uses this... the magic..." Hex tries.
"Dwarf star?" Ray suggests.
"Yeah, to blow the thing up," Hex concludes.
"Well, if he destroys the pass, there's no way of transporting soldiers and supplies from the East coast," Nathan continues to study the map in front of him. "The U.S. Army is effectively locked out of the West. So it's simple... We just stop Turnbull from blowing up the pass."
"Yeah, simple," Sara rolls her eyes. "You don't have a suit, you just had invasive surgery, Stein's out of commission."
"We'll think of something," Ray shrugs.
" 'Courage is the mastery of fear, not the absence of it'," Nate quotes Ray, earning a smile from his friend.
"Yeah, what about Turnbull? If that train goes boom... he's not gonna be on it," Hex points out.
"I overheard one of his people saying Turnbull just called for a meeting at his mine," Nate tells.
"You, Jax, and Ray, stop the train. The rest of us, we'll deal with Turnbull," Sara plans.
