"I came to save you, Idiot!" Lauren shouted at Winn, flipping him off.

There was no time to relax. Xiao Yan and Heine jumped into the cabin and Winn followed closely behind.

When everyone had entered the cabin, several killers showed up and jumped onto the aircraft, holding onto the engines.

"Holy shit!" Lauren had just pressed the button to close the hatch. A killer grabbed his arm and Winn quickly clasped his wrist as Liv mercilessly cut off his arm. His limb fell and the hatch closed. Lauren looked dumbly at the whole scenario. He patted his chest as if to assure himself he was till alive.

"Say...um...are they all Jane Wallace?" Lauren pressed his face to the cabin window, watching as another group of killers rushed from the flight path to the craft.

Casey, who was stone faced this whole time responded. "They are not Jane Wallace."


Lauren looked at him blankly. "Where did Jane Wallace go?"


Suddenly a killer climbed up on the window and attempted to jam his blade through the window. Although this was an impossible task, he diligently continued trying.

"I don't know what Valentin did to them. Everything inside there was crazy." Winn watched as one of the killers attempted to destroy the craft's engines but instead was sucked inside. A fine mist of his blood blew out the other side, scattering his remains into the air.


Xiao shouted an order to the pilot. "Take them all out. Every killer."



"Major has anyone told you that you are sounding more and more like Colonel Burton?"



As the sound of Ritz's voice passed through the craft's system, Xiao looked up stunned and then yelled loudly at LAuren. "Who is the pilot?"



"Mr. Ritz and Major Loch." Lauren had never seen Xiao so angry. He could barely gather the courage to answer his question.

"Didn't I tell them to stay at the base. If anything ha..."

"Don't blame them. No one wants to watch their comrades head to the front line while they cower in safety." Winn knows exactly why Xiao Yan is so angry.


"It is imperative that we keep track of Jane's wherabouts. Casey put on his terminal device. "I have placed a miniature tracking device in his heart. Even though Valentin...even though he will replace his brain with Jane's, we can still locate Valentin through this tracker."

Even if Casey is using the mission to deal with Jane's capture and eventual death, Casey's inner pain is apparent. Although everyone senses it, no one can fully understand his anguish.


"I have Jane's current position!"

" He is six hundred feet underground!"


Xiao Yan called up the layout of the structure in his contact. There is no exit path under the ice. That means an aircraft must be used to leave the base.


"What should we do now? " Liv glanced over at Heine.

"Xiao Yan. This is your mission. You decided how to continue." Heine's eyes are still, their depths reveal an unwavering support for the Xiao's world.


Xiao took a deep breath and connected to the cab. "Riz, Loch did you finish the particle bomb I asked you to create?"

"Of course. It is ready" Ritz answered confidently.


"I will send over the coordinates to certain areas of the base. Blow it up. We have to force them to leave with Jane."

"I have received it. That is what I wanted to do in the first place. It is a pity that Valentin is not inside."


The aircraft whirls around and slings off the killers still hanging from the engines. A missile is released and hits the SW corner of the base as Xiao ordered. As it exploded, dust blew into the sky and scattered outward. In less than 30s this portion of the structure was completely demolished.
