The capture must be so fluid and quick that no distress signal could be sent out.He waited for one of his groups to signal they had silently killed the guards at the entrance to the tower. %u201cRemember, don%u2019t kill any of the controllers. Set your laser pistols to stun. That is except you Norman, and me as well. We%u2019ll kill anyone armed,%u201d Kyle whispered to them.%u201cThere,%u201d said Plum. %u201cTwo red flashes, pause, two more.%u201d%u201cGood. Let%u2019s go. Keep to the edges of the buildings to make it more difficult for any ground crews to detect us in the shadows,%u201d Kyle said.They walked noiselessly towards the tower, hugging the buildings and pausing or ducking if a ground vehicle%u2019s headlight swung over them or close by. They reached the entrance where four of his soldiers waited in the dark. They greeted each other and the four pointed to the bodies of the men they had killed with knives and by strangulation.%u201cGood work,%u201d Kyle said. %u201cRemain here to guard the entrance.%u201dHe took security rings from the bodies by sawing off their fingers. The rings alone would not open the various security doors. The process required biometrics of their bodies to work.He went to the unit beside the entrance and touched the sensor with one of the cut fingers. A beam came on and shone at the ring and scanned up above it to the fingertip.The large twin doors slid open. The problem now were the surveillance cameras. Their control centre was underground and he had sent soldiers to capture and take it over. The screens at the top of the tower should now be playing recorded video from months go. The cameras were still on but their feed was no longer reaching the tower The Brothel Amongst The Stars
