As Paul and Nick chat over a meal and several cups of coffee, they are interupted by a Army Corporal. "Captain Dundee, Dr. Thimes your flight will be ready to take off in 10 minutes. If you will follow me I will take you plane." You both are shocked at the time. It seems that you have been sitting and talking for several hours. You hustle after the Corporal and you are arrange in the empty bomb bay of a B 17 Flying Fortress. In the early morning light you see several other bombers lined up on the runway. A crew member yells at you over the sound of the big bombers engines. "Sirs, if you would put on these flight jackets please. It gets pretty cold up there even with the heaters going full blast. We should make england in about 16 hours, but we will have to make some stops in Nova Scotia and Iceland.



Soon the big bomber gets underway and you head off into the brighting sky.

As Lucian begins to escort Major Ivanova inside the base, a Lance-Corporal come up to you and gives you a salute. "Sir, Colonel Shaw wishes you and Major Ivanova here to meet him in the conferience room. The last two members of the squad, the American and the Australian, have just arrived. If you will excuse me sir, I must round up the others."

"With this kind of power, we'll whip the Nazi's soundly, then after Tojo, too. You're a military man, Dundee? Had all kinds of combat experience? Not me, as you've guessed. I'm a medical doctor, doing research for the War Department.

"To sum it up, I was attacked by fifth columnists and drank a bunch of samples instead of letting them fall into enemy hands. It made some real changes to my metabolism. I guess Uncle Sam thinks the I'll be able to do some damage to the Nazi war machine. I'll tell you more once we're on the flight."

"Only sixteen hours. Goodness." Nick smiles wryly to himself as he boards. Once their in the air, Nick resumes his story.

"Here's the deal, Paul. Those drugs in my system increased my reaction time a lot, maybe a hundredfold. I'm so fast now, I can probably dodge bullets."

By way of demonstration, Nick makes sure none of the crew is watching and does a lightning fast handstand in interior of the plane. Nick smiles jauntily and springs to his feet, in a blur of motion.

The Marksman

"Thank you, Lance Corporal," Lucian drawls with a brief salute.

He then leads the foreign officer way to Colonel Shaw's office.

"Bonza! I also have special abilities, mate. I was in a super soldier program. The serums they gave me basically increased my tracking abilities way above a normal bloke. And if someone thinks they know I am tracking them them..."

With that, the Bushwhacker blends into the surface of the plane.

Buber drains the last bit of soup from the bowl, sipping noisily.

"Instructions have been maddeningly difficult to get. I feel that most of our hosts know who we are, but not what we are here for, which does make me question security. I can't shake the image of some corporal blathering in a pub over a pint about the impending arrival of foreign commandos or some such thing."

"Indeed, that is a discomforting thought," Feodor agreed. "We can do little but hope, I suppose. I do hope the reast of our foreign commandos arrive soon, however. I do the Motherland no good sitting here."

"Holy smokes! That's amazing," Nick exclaims. "If I wasn't staring right at you I'd never know you were there."

Mess Hall, Highheath Farm

A young british solider walks up to Buber and Feodor. "Sirs, the Comander wishes your attendance at a meeting in the confirence room. If you would follow me please."

Feodor stands to follow the soldier, "Of course, comrade." Looking over at Buber, he adds, "Finally!"
