Chapter 44
Throwing on my full combat gear and grabbing a loaded shotgun from the bag in the closet I run out to see what’s actually happening. The halls are full of black uniformed government goons and I can hear Karl laughing in his ’everyone is going to die today’ fake happy tone.
Oh fuzzballs.
Driving shoulder first through the uniformed goons, I run over to where I hear Karl’s voice.
"What’s going on man? Where’s everyone else?"
"The rest of the team hasn’t returned yet. I came back because I heard the base was under attack. Turns out it’s these idiots blaming the Corps for the disaster that brought the portals."
This can’t be good. They’re obviously from the federal government.
"Karl, buddy, relax. They couldn’t kill us even if they tried."
The government forces do not look at all impressed at this sentiment.
Just then, floor clear signals start sounding through the radios on the nearby table and in my pocket. "Maybe we should go with them to represent the base and get this sorted out? We are Task Force members after all, the go between for the humans and supernatural."
