The Special Ops team all survived their encounter with the suicide car. However, they lost four servicemen and over twenty people were injured in the blast. So Amir tonight had wanted to do something. He talked to his CO about tracing the people that hit them or at least getting information yet Captain Adam Dalton didn’t do things on a whim and he sure didn’t involve his team on anything that wasn’t sanctioned from Washington. And so the captain waited until he was called by the DIA about a situation he could actually fix.
Yet, the “call” came a lot sooner than anyone thought. The captain had gotten a call about one of their covert CIA outpost being hit and so he took his team on an unofficial official mission in the Ukraine. The Ukraine outpost had seemingly gotten hit by pro-Russian forces and there was just one person that had been left alive. The agent had been Cassie Connor had come back to the outpost to find her entire team shot down and had been forced to take on several rebels singlehandedly to secure her location. So the Special Ops team had gotten sent in to collect her.
Captain Dalton and his team moved quickly and took their first flight over to the Ukraine. But, luckily, they found Connor in a somewhat good condition. She had cauterized the only bullet wound she received and she could still move on her own. So Connor was loaded into a helicopter that was supposed to take her home though the helicopter was later hit and that helped clear up what was going on. The Deputy Director hadn’t understood why Russia would hit a CIA outpost which had global ramifications except she came to understand why when she saw how much Russian agents were interested in Cassie.
Cassie had apparently been their objective all along. The outpost had gotten hit because those foreign agents had wanted to grab Cassie and so they tried to capture her again when she got on that helicopter. Though their interest in Cassie was something that needed to be explained and so the Deputy Director demanded that someone come down to her office and tell her why she was risking her men. So Campbell eventually got answers. Her boss came down there and told her that there was a CIA mole in Putin’s inner organization and that Cassie had been the mole’s handler.
So Cassie could identify who the mole was and that’s why there was an elite group of spy-hunters on her tail. However, Cassie had proven one before that she could handle herself and she did that again when she managed to escape the team that was hunting her. She had gotten out of the helicopter crash alive and she had escaped for the second time, but her injuries had merely gotten worse and she was in need of medical attention. Cassie had gotten banged in the crash and received a stab wound the abdomen. And so she had had to find someplace to lay low.
Cassie had used light signals to show anyone watching from satellite – like the analysts back in Washington – that she was heading to the women’s bathhouse. It was the one place that the Russians wouldn’t go and so she thought she stay there until a recovery team traced her movements. But it had taken some time for one analyst in particular to pick up her signal. Noah Morgenthau had trained with Connor back at “the farm” and he knew how good she was yet he had let personal feelings and some anger get in the way before he realized she sent signals.
Noah as it turns out was at the top of his class, but he hadn’t gone on to become a field agent because he felt he could save more lives as an analyst. Yet, that was a decision that Noah found himself often explaining and defending to others. So it wasn’t until he got out of his own head that he saw the lights and realized Connor had headed to the bathhouse. The bathhouse was the one safe place where women could go in the city and not be disturbed by men. And so the Special Ops team eventual sent Jaz in.
Jaz didn’t know the language so well yet she knew how to take care of herself and was able to get pass the patrols to get to the bathhouse. So Jazz followed the woman that ran the place and found out that there was a secret room in the back where women could hide if they were ever in trouble. And so Jaz got to Connor. Though Connor was in such bad way that she wouldn’t be able to get her out of there undetected and so Jaz’s team had had to come to them. The guys had stolen a car off one of the spy-hunters and they used to take carefully get the women out of the bathhouse before anyone suspected what was up.
But the first thing Captain Dalton had to see to was Connor’s injuries. Connor needed to get patched up and receive a blood transfer. So the team found a deserted building where they could see to Connor and back in Washington the analysts were left to figure out how get the team out of there. There was no safe place for the helicopter to land and so it was up to the ground team to clear the field. And therefore, Special Ops lured the Russian team into a trap and set off some explosives they thought would tie up their hands.
So the plan worked long enough for them all to get to the chopper and fly out with Connor before they ran into anymore trouble, but that had been cutting it very close and the Deputy Director was going to be a lot more careful about sending her team in the future.
THE END!
