Bab 381: Bait

Three began moving down the line untying people but since they hadn't received any orders yet they remained perfectly still. Alex and Cody began inching their way forward so slowly that no one had noticed yet. The closer they were to their targets when the time came to strike the better. 

"Kill the target tied to the chair, Six, and Eight," Three said loftily. "They have been compromised."

"Yes, sir!" they all chorused. 

This was it. Their only chance. "Now!" Alex hollered. 

Cody immediately sprinted toward Claire while he headed for Sarah, who posed the most immediate threat to his wife. She had always been the weakest of the group at hand-to-hand combat considering her height. Throwing her off of him was a piece of cake.
