[QUOTE="talien, post: 5449241, member: 3285"] [b]The Windthrope Legacy: Part 3 – Who Ya Gonna Call?[/b] There was an international phone number that Hammer had with him at all times. As cell leader he had never needed to use it. Now was as good a time as any. He dialed the number. It pinged an automated system. Hammer pressed one for an operator and was put on hold with some lovely country tunes and the occasional “Your call is important to us, please stay on the line.” He was finally rewarded with a human voice. “Hi, this is Nancy in customer service. How can I help you?” "Nancy, this is Agent Hammer. I need an extraction." "Please hold while I transfer you to Special Claims.” He was put on hold again. Hammer's anxiety increased with each passing minute. Two minutes later, a male voice picked up. "This is Special Claims." "This is Agent Hammer. I am asking for extraction for my team." There was an odd clicking on the phone. “Your claims will be looked into. Please provide a phone number and an address where we can reach you.” Hammer hung up and threw the phone in a trash bin. "Any luck?" asked Guppy, arms loaded with some basic electronics. Hammer shook his head. "Your trace detector worked. They were trying to track us." Guppy looked crestfallen. "First time I've been sorry a gadget of mine worked." [/QUOTE]
