Evans,
do it."
"Copy," said Evans as he and Pierce stepped from concealment behind a table
with a tall cardboard display and ran toward Nassir and Hassan.
Hassan broke into a run and reached under his baggy shirt as he approached
Cade's duty station. Cade drew his Glock and prepared to take him down if
necessary as he watched Pierce approach Hassan from the side, but Pierce
launched himself to land on Hassan and bore him crushingly to the floor over
twenty feet from Cade's doors.
Cade stayed in his doorway and looked to see how Bartow and Evans were
faring with Nassir as Pierce struggled with Hassan. They weren't faring well.
Evans had rushed Nassir, but Nassir had hopped into the air and kicked him
in the face, then landed facing Bartow and dropped flat, kicking at Bartow's
leg.
There was a loud, sickening snapping sound and then Nassir was on his feet
again and veering right for Cade with a MAC-11 autopistol aimed at him.
Cade quickly backed deep into the doorway. Grinning as he rushed forward,
Nassir thought that Cade had panicked and ducked inside the ballroom. He was
wrong.
