A two-member CBRN unit was walking down the corridor of a destroyed apartment complex.

It was extremely late at night, which made encounters more common.

" Got the C4? "

" Affirmative. "

Crowbar placed it on the wall and walked back, pressing down on the red button.

Once they destroyed the concrete wall, they entered the reinforced room slowly, guns ready.

They looked around the tiny room, looking for indications that they weren't the first people to come here.

Crowbar knocked on the wooden walls, seeming to stand out from the other walls.

He knocked on it again, giving out an echo.

" Slug, what the hell kind of secrets did you have? "

He then took out measuring tape, measuring the distance between the wall and the bathroom.

He then calculated the depth of the wall, deducing that the wooden fence wasn't too thick, having an echo to it.

" Pass me the flamethrower now! " Vixen yelled, quickly passing it to her, with her burning it down.

" Slug and Z weren't paranoid. They knew something was coming. " He said.

Vixen started hyperventilating, with tears coming down her eyes, but Crowbar told her to calm down.

Inside the fake wall was just like Sanchez, containing a heavy sniper rifle with a single bullet colored red, and next to it was a single photo.

The photo itself was of a man wearing a blue and black robe. On his chest was the emblem in gold.

" What the fuck. "

Vixen calls in Goliath, which took some time for someone to pick up.

" Reznya, what's the situation? "

" Where the fuck are you!? "

She almost jumped at the loud response, startling her.

" Fort Echo. "

"Don't move. We're coming to get you guys. We found the original crime scene. "

Ten minutes later, they were outside waiting for Crowbar and Vixen.

An armored vehicle came to a sudden halt in front of them, with Crowbar on the minigun.

" Get in now! "

" So where are we heading? " Asked Goliath.

" Manhattan Beach. "

Once they arrived at the house, they saw it vacant, decaying away.

Before entering, Crowbar and Vixen took out their weapons, waiting for the duo to get ready.

Crowbar went for the doorknob but realized being locked without much surprise.

Crowbar used a laser to burn through the wood, destroying the lock.

There was silence, with sounds of something rummaging in the walls.

The house was extremely dark, with tons of places to hide in, with a long hallway with multiple rooms

When they entered, Vixen heard the sound of broken glass from the back of the kitchen room.

She signaled her team to hug the wall, hearing the wood creek, with more things breaking around them.

Sasha and Goliath were walking down the hallway just then.

Three gunshots were released, with a squirting sound coming from the same room.

Goliath saw a man in a robe running away with a limp, with something black in his hand.

Goliath aimed his gun, firing his shotgun.

His shots were perfectly executed, with the runaway bleeding profusely.

The target takes a few more steps before falling to the ground.

Goliath approached the body while Crowbar was getting up, suffering minor injuries.

He took notice of the body's teeth, sharpened.

All four turned to see a bright light, realizing it was coming from the garage.

" Let's snatch this bastard! " Sasha yelled, running as fast as they could.

They could catch a glimpse of their runaway as he turned the corner.

" I want to talk! " She yelled as she shot three rounds, hitting his ankle and violently falling on the concrete.

After that, they were picked up by a helicopter with the criminal tied up.

When they returned to the base, they had to fill in an enormous pile of paperwork.

At the end of the ride, they handed over the criminal, who had a terrified look as he entered the fortress.

When they finished their workday, it was already dark outside.

They both decided to return to their camp, trashed, with shot glasses and clothing everywhere.

She crashed onto the end of the bed. This time there wasn't as much talking.

In the end, Goliath was lying in his bed, unable to pay attention.

" Hey, are you ok? " She asked, noticing the silence.

" Nothing, just getting ready. "
