Chaos didn't believe her, but nodded yes. "Just try to get some rest." He left to find out more about Captain Thomas.

Helen left the office, found a mat, and cuddled beside Tater, stroking the animal's head until they dozed off.



Chaos devised a three-part escape from Boston. The first strategy was to leave quickly to take advantage of the fog and darkness. Conditions made it difficult for aircraft to fly. Secondly, they would leave a radio jammer at the dock with automated Masadas fending off Seal teams that might try and silence it. All-band jammers had a radius of fifteen miles. That would put the Mountain Boys out of the Federal radar radius. If the weather stayed bad they could be well into Maine by the next day. Chaos' final ace: They would divide the munitions between many boats and make a shell game of it. They had a second jammer they would turn on in case of attack; pilots would have no communications system. The low altitude under cloud cover would make the pilots easy targets for smaller hand-held missiles from the many boats, and then they had the anti-aircraft batteries on the ship Captain Thomas had brought. Chaos was hoping the Feds' attempt to take them in Boston had been hastily thrown together and that they could just leave without a hitch.

For the past three hours attack packs had been pillaging the harbor and commandeering boats of all sizes. They found a cargo ship loaded with cigarettes stamped Taxes Paid to the Department of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, waiting in the harbor to be off-loaded. Chaos ordered the cigarettes dumped into the harbor. It was all too easy: The all-frequency jammer atop Hancock Tower still mangled radio signals for a fifteen-mile radius. And within that communication blackout, the Feds were unlikely to do much offensively. On their way out, the Mountain Boys had booby-trapped the Hancock Tower three floors above and below the jammer; they used motion detectors as the triggering device. The only way to get by the devices was to have someone go in and detonate them, or wait until the batteries in the motion sensors drained. Chaos hoped the Feds wouldn't destroy an entire building like the Hancock just to take out a radio jammer.

"I'd like some answers about why you are here," said Chaos to Captain Thomas as Mountain Boys moved supplies and gear around them.

Captain Thomas welcomed the interrogation, hoping it would clear the air and allow them to work together: "The truth about the Dixville tragedy has been withheld from the American people long enough. We were assigned to stop the smuggling in the North Country by any means necessary, the any means necessary emphasized. The White House wanted to make an example of the smugglers. After months with little success halting the smuggling of medical supplies, and a number of soldiers hit by locals in the hills, the AutoMan came strongly recommended. They claimed it had been thoroughly field-tested and would be perfect for blocking mountain routes in outlying areas. It had sensors to detect weight and weaponry. The thing should never have fired on those kids." He shook his head. "It just should never have happened. I'm not the only one who feels this way. There are a lot of messed up men and women in my unit trying to deal with this tragedy. As an added precaution afterward, they split up our unit and scattered us all over; we were ordered not to talk about it."

If the Captain was acting, he was very good at it. Chaos believed his story. Being a soldier of a different sort, he understood the predicament of battle, the possibility of the innocent getting hurt. "So the White House has known all along about this?"

"From the day it happened. Not everyone is in agreement: there's dissension at the top. But a direct link to the President and the Dixville Massacre isn't likely. Nothing was in writing. Besides, as tough as it is to accept, I screwed up by allowing a technician to turn off one of the sensors. It was my task force that did it. Exposing the truth about Dixville would only ruin the soldiers in my unit, at least that was my rationale for not saying anything for awhile. It won't touch the White House; they'll claim it was a military cover-up. But it might stop the bloodshed that's about to happen.
