Three black security vehicles were already parked on the sidewalk outside the building when Ellie and Jayce arrived. Their low profiles made them look like they were crouching in the dark, waiting for someone else to make the first move.

'I see them!' Jayce shouted, pointing at the flurry of activity in the lobby of the Conway building. 'Tila's fighting someone.'

'Big surprise,' Ellie muttered She turned the wheel one way and accelerated away from the building. Then she yanked the wheel to the other side and slid the cruiser through a one hundred eighty degree turn. She pointed the vehicle at the centre cruiser.

'Ellie?'

'Shush, Jayce. We need to get in there.'

'There are steps and walls in the way, Ellie.'

'I know.'

'And, um three cruisers,' said Jayce. He felt a little silly pointing out this small detail.

'I need a ramp to get over the wall to make a door.'

'There's already a door. And a hole.'

'I need a bigger one.'

'What for?'

'This.'
