"I don't feel good about this," Sydney gripped her gun tightly, prepared
for anything that might come.
"You don't think she can do this?" Vaughn asked, a hint of uncertainty quivering in his voice.
"No, it's not that. It just... seems too easy." They started moving closer to the dorm doors.
Vaughn nodded his head in agreement as he scanned the perimeter.
"How's Lauren?"
"What?"
"Lauren. How is she?" Syd looked around, attempting to slice through the surrounding darkness.
"Ok, I guess. Her trip to Washington was prolonged."
"She spends a lot of time in DC."
"Her job's a whore. What can I say?"
"Nice wording," she smiled.
"I try." He took a few more steps, gun at the ready. "Look." Vaughn pointed up at a window just above them. Light assaulted the enveloping darkness. "Come on."
"Hold it right there." A gun cocked. Sydney swallowed. "Drop your weapons and put your hands in the air."
Two of them, she thought. But they were large. Massive was a more appropriate term.
She let her gun hit the ground. Vaughn did the same. They clattering sliced through the midnight silence.
"Move," one of them grunted.
Vaughn felt the iciness of the cold steel through his thin cotton shirt.
"I told you this was too easy."
