After our run we went back to getting things together so we could leave. Each of us had a duty to perform to make sure that the compound was secure.
It had been getting dark out when we decided to do a last walk through of the mansion and that's when Cord found a book with codes. Codes that only the seven of us, and the man who wrote them would understand. I took the book and moved to the secure computer with the others following behind.
It was a bit of a shock to see the words as they unfolded on the screen. Not just the meaning, but it was like hearing from the old man again. Like he was reaching out from beyond the grave and the eight of us were going to work on this last job together. I knew my brothers felt pretty much the way I did, gut punched.
