Neon District

Day 25 of quarantine

Military forces drop down onto the roofs, locked and loaded. "Twenty seconds." a man shouts, "Roger that Eagle two." another answers and they were ready.

90 minutes ago...

They stood in the debriefing room with Moya at the head and she showed them an image of the Conduit. "Her name is Sasha, and she got powers in the same blast as MacGrath and O'Connell. She excretes a powerful hallucinogenic. It immediately induces seizures and any contact with it can be fatal." she informs them and pulls up all three of the reaming prime Conduits in Empire city.

"...Really has a thing for MacGrath, so we won't move against him. MacGrath has a teenager with him by the name Cassandra O'Connell, who seems to have to take a liking to her, so we can't touch her as well. Not until we have Sasha in custody." she informs them.

She then turns to them, her hands on both of her hips, "Intel suggests she's reconstituting her paramilitary, the Reapers. I want this done by the book. In and out in ten minutes. Understood?" she orders them.

Present...

The soldiers busted through the door, "Entrance breached." one calls out, "Eagle Two, advance one, in position." the other said over the radio. And the advance into the building with guns ready. Headed down the stairs to the lower floors.

They went to go further, but the Reapers took them by surprise and fired, taking a few of the soldiers down. "Contact! Find cover!" one orders and they hide.

The soldiers did fire back. But the Reapers were outgunning them. "Requesting heavy fire, danger close, ninth floor, east side." a man said over the radio. "Copy that. Firing danger close." another said over the radio and a chopper came and fired through the windows and took out all the Reapers on the ninth floor. "Good kill, eagle two, good kill. Maintain position." the man said to them through the radio, "Copy that." they answer and stayed close to the building.

They advance forward and step over the Reapers bodies, "Keep it tigh-!" one said, but was cut off as a blast came out of nowhere. Knocking them to the ground, then Sasha steps out and glares at them as her tentacle tongue was sticking out and they look at her, "I know what that bitch's plan is, what she wants. But I'll never betray my love." she growls at them and spits out more tar, making the men on the ground choke on it, the other stood around her and readied the stun shots. "Use the Z000v!" one orders and they were shot right at her.

Sasha screams as she shrieks from contact, but then she still kept fighting "Cole will find you... he and that child... they'll kill you, all of you..." she growls at them as her body weakens and she collapses onto her knees "Hit her again!" one orders at they were standing over her. "...You'll see..." she mutters and was out. Sasha was rolled onto her back, a bag place over her face. "We got her, mother." one informs Moya as he pulls out the wires. "Well done, sergeant." she congrats him.

~8~8~8~

Moya stood at the head of the ship with two files tuck in her arm, "Two down, two more to go." she mutters and looks out at Empire city. "won't be much, longer now, Cole..." she mutters.

Then clutches the files in her grip, "Not much longer now."

The Warren

Zeke kneeled in front of a van as he was working on the engine, trying to get it to work, then Cole and Cassandra walk up behind him, "The Warden said you needed out help." Cole calls out to him, Zeke nods at him, "Yeah, got some batteries that need charin'." he answers and Cassie walks up and looks at the engine.
