Jaye readied her javelins. Mary joined her and they compared weaponry. Mary, who also preferred the javelin, had her specialized crossbow as well. Liam went to each cousin and introduced new weaponry they would need that he had designed and would be used on the mission.
A hush had fallen over the jet as they all mentally prepared. The jet had gone into stealth mode and the lights were dimmed in the cabin. Jaye went to join the pilot, another childhood friend and one of the Grenadiers. He smiled when she joined him.
"How's it going, Blake?" she asked softly.
He chuckled. "I figured your curiosity would get you up here sooner or later. Want to learn how to fly this bird?"
Jaye smiled, nodding. He shook his head. "I never figured you out. Here you are, scared of heights, but put you in the pilot's seat and it never becomes a problem." He pointed out some of the different looking instruments and explained their use. "We're heading into Scottish airspace. You might want to alert the others."
She nodded, her face serious once more. "Good luck," Blake whispered to her, catching her hand. She squeezed his before letting go and returning to the cabin.
They landed not too far from Castle Destro. Several vehicles were waiting. Jaye noticed several Grenadiers waiting for them, and looked to Ian. He nodded. "We can trust them, don't worry. Hell, we grew up with most of them!"
There were silent greetings as everyone split into their teams. They would travel to the Castle on foot, entering at different points. There would be no communication other than when Destro was captured. Those Grenadiers that were still loyal to Destro would protect him with their life and would need to be dealt with.
Jaye closed her eyes and prayed. She opened them and became totally focused on the mission.
It was like a blur. They fought their way into the castle. Her team was to infiltrate through the bedrooms and meet in the library, where Destro was most likely to be. She liked Liam's weapon. It was able to silently stun without harming, causing its victim to be unconscious for several hours - more than enough time for them to capture Destro and deal with those afterwards. It also worked from several feet away, not just on contact. She had not been looking forward to possibly killing those that were only doing their job.
