“Go, go, go!!!” shouted Reaper. The operation began.
“Roger,” responded Kevin first as he relayed the Go message to his team. Team Idaho moved in. Each operative moved exactly as they had been trained over the previous seven weeks. Within two minutes, they had entered the school. Fifty armed men moved from corridor to corridor, rounding up students as they went, hunting for the two faces which had been imprinted on their memories. They experienced little resistance and any hint of it was stamped out brutally.
“Roger,” said Marco as he gave the Go command to his team.
Team Colombia moved in. Again, the operatives moved as one, trained to perfection. They too entered the school within two minutes and rounded up students and teachers alike. All operatives hunting down the two faces emblazoned in their memories.
“Roger,” responded Fadi who screamed the command to his operatives. Team Syria attacked and found the greatest resistance of all the groups. Five were cut down by guards and the group took five minutes to penetrate the school. After another two minutes, they secured the area and began rounding up stray students. Fadi and Muhammad were concerned about the level of violence being used by their operatives against the students and they used all their strength to regain control. They realised that, over the previous seven weeks, they had wound up their group into too much of a frenzy about their targets. They wanted them alive not in bits.
“Roger,” said Leroy, passing on the command. Team Zimbabwe made its way into the school with no resistance whatsoever. Within five minutes, they had complete control and the operatives were slowly but surely mopping up stragglers while hunting for the two faces they had really come for.
“Team Idaho here. Perimeter established and now in control. We’re still finding students but have not found the targets yet,” reported Kevin.
“Team Colombia here. Perimeter established and now in control. Stragglers are still being found but we have not yet located the targets,” reported Marco.
“Team Zimbabwe now in control. Perimeter established. Targets still being sought,” reported Leroy.
“Team Syria, in control and full perimeter established. Targets have been spotted and are being tracked,” reported Fadi.
