Down The Road: The Fall Of Austin - Plot & Excerpts
Simply walking out the front gates and down Congress was their plan. By hiding in plain sight they would blend in with all other base activity going about their business. And once they crossed the bridge they would potentially be out of sight. The base was abuzz with activity, but not as much as the previous morning. Their departure would not be noticed until at least 0600 unless a gatekeeper got suspicious. But Sgt. Arnold knew most gatekeepers were E-1’s and had to think twice before harassing a superior about authorization to leave the premises. Sgt. Arnold exited their tent, followed by Specialists Knight and Noble. They began marching in the direction of the capitol gate, walking with a purpose—walking as if they had every right and had been given every order and permission. However, Sgt. Arnold wasn’t wholly surprised when Sgt. Nickson stepped into their path. “Arnold,” he said, almost gritting, as if he despised even the very name itself. “With his charges, Larry and Curly.”
