Atlanta later the same day,

Ghost handed each person a thermite grenade.
Explained to each how it worked what it would
do. Tom looked at him you saying this thing a melt
iron like it was nothing. Yes melt that hand plum
off you don't watch yourself using it. Now we've
broke up into six groups. Thirty six cannon total.
From here to Decatur. Six Batteries, we must take
them out every gun. Understood? The crews kill
them. Silently no screams no firing. I know the Shield among us know how the rest good luck.
They all should be sleeping, they've no worry to
far from the front. Ghost looked at them we go now, quiet like a mouse.

Tom felt heard his heart beat, even in the cold of
the night he was sweating. Knife ready hands cold,
quiet breaths the cold air filled his lungs making
him want to cough some. He fought the urge, the Shield he thought moved like cats, quick quiet
making it look simple. Tom stopped as they waited
for all to gather. Karen pointed mouthed he is yours, kill him. Tom left the trees stabbed the
body then again, the soldiers eyes opened in pain
disbelief. Has he put the second stab into him.
Tom held back a nervous giggle, pulled the pen
on the grenade placed it on the breech.

Karen pulled him back into the trees, whispered you did well. Our job is done lets head out of here.
Shouts firing rang out, Karen looked at Tom go back, I've four Shield we'll handle this. Karen ran
towards the firing the next Battery was fighting back. Ghost was firing shouting we must kill them!

Karen and the four charged into the crew, bullets
cracking by her hard clanks from ones hitting the
cannon. She slid to a stop running her sword into
the soldier pushing with her feet pulling it out.
They are in our Ranks! Blocking Karen's swing of sword with his rifle. He jabbed at her with his rifle. Karen turned left punched him then countered with a jab from her sword. He doubled
over, she twisted the sword jerked up and down
pulling it out in two swift moves. She looked herself and one other still standing. Ghost ran in
the three left in his group placed the grenades.
She felt the heat the sky lit up, as she ran towards
the trees and safety. Once they made it to safety
Ghost said thank you, one woke before we got started. Karen shook her head, we should of all been Shield less chance of this happening.

Ghost nodded, they all need to learn the battle isn't
far off. They need to know how to kill, do it with out thinking. Karen pointed at Ghost, we had to
leave good friends behind. We don't like doing that. Next time I plan the attack not you! Ghost
laughed, good for you! You have spunk Shield,
I like that! Tom came over we lost ten total people.
The last battery we may not of got all the cannon.
Six we know are dead the other four, not certain
on them. Karen said not a bad night, even if we didn't get them all. Ghost nodded I hoped for all,
If one battery is left better than six.

I must leave, get back before daylight. So I'm not missed. Go home do your normal day, I'll send word on our next meeting. You all did a fine job.
Tom looked around every one in pairs head home.
Karen I'll leave with you, we'll leave last like to talk some. Karen smiled that will work, you can stay the night father won't mind mother likes you.
Tom nodded this killing, does it get easier?
I'm starting to feel funny about it, the rush from
the fear and staying alive is gone. Now I feel sick
nervous, like I've done wrong. You'll always feel
some remorse over killing you just live with it.
Killing is never easy, if it gets to easy on the mind.
You aren't human, Tom I'll just say may get to the
point of being easy, long as it doesn't feel normal.
You are fine. Lets head out be home before the
sun shines bright.
