 How much was a mystery. So what else was new? Assuming that Carlos' Nest had escaped safely, her team's task now was to secure the perimeter of the factory and keep it that way, if possible, to give Mother-General the time she needed to get a team of guerillas to the Makr mainframe. But first they had to get back Outside and that was a major obstacle in itself. She didn't even have a backup plan. A fall back zone. This was the real deal. A fight to the death. Manufactured metal machines were at war against the people who built them.

The lieutenant moved her people through two floors of empty steel spaces before finding a space that was being used for some purpose; she found exactly the same Cyber assembly room as Carlos had. She was unaware of that point until one of her less graceful men dropped his laser ax with the safety off. She remembered the disaster her accident with the laser ax caused! Maybe now it would be helpful. The laser blade on its highest setting sliced through the room, luckily missing other members of the team. Everyone saw the white hot beam as it sliced through the room without changing a thing. Nothing was damaged. That in itself was puzzling.

Nothing was damaged, but she saw the flutter or flicker of the image. _SensaVision here! Illusion. All of it. We'll see what damage we've really done. Or, it's trap!_ She didn't know if anyone else had come to the same conclusion, but it was her job to give the alarm and the order.

"We've been had! Grenades! Shields!" Shields went up simultaneously as the grenades were launched, and before they went off, all the team members were lying flat on their back under cover of their shields. Kieran was the first one up followed by Sergeant Gray.

"Good job, Sergeant. Now, let's sift through this mess to see what we have."

"Yes, ma'am."

"Oh, Sergeant, be careful. We usually see our enemy."

He nodded grimly in agreement. He was a veteran. He knew the score. Kieran was glad he and his soldiers knew the drill. Gray also knew Makr constantly changed the rules.

She smiled at the irony that another "malfunctioning" laser ax helped her to _see_ her enemy now.
