Selene sighed in relief as she passed through the final checkpoint. It seemed to her that they enjoyed searching and double—sometimes triple—checking visitors when they entered the lower levels of Cheyenne Mountain.
Standing in the elevator, she watched the tall Marine as he pushed one of the numbered buttons next to the now closed elevator doors. The elevator made a very faint jerk as it descended towards their destination.
Must be something big if they have this much security for just NORAD, she thought to herself as the elevator stopped. The doors opened and two men entered, talking to themselves.
"I thought the old coot was going to skin us alive if we didn't leave his village." One of the men—Air force by his insignia—was telling the second man.
The other man nodded. "Yeah, but what did you do to piss him off Tom?" The first man coughed uncomfortably when he noticed Selene standing against the back of the elevator.
She ignored the two men as she brushed a wisp of ebony locks from her face, tucking it behind her ear. Mentally she shuddered as the thoughts of the two officers reached her own mind. Men are such perverts!
After what seemed like forever, the elevator finally stopped. The Marine that stood by the numbered buttons turned and smiled at Selene.
"Dr. Douvre, this is our stop." With a nod, she followed the soldier through the elevator doors and past the two perverted officers. The two men stared after her as she walked towards the location the Marine was directing her.
"Ya know something, Bill?" the second man asked his friend as the elevator closed.
"What?" he pushed the button for level 14.
"I have a feeling she's going to make our lives here Hell."
Tom chuckled. "And working here with Colonel O'Neill when he's been in the infirmary for a few days isn't?"
