Gabriel: Zero Point (Evan Gabriel Trilogy) - Plot & Excerpts
The lights were on and the overhead recyclers hummed steadily, clearing the smoke. The stealth-suited body was gone, leaving behind a small dark stain where blood had pooled. A maintenance worker walked over with a bucket in his hand. “Excuse me, sir,” he said as he edged past Gabriel and knelt to work on the stain. The civilian looked back at Gabriel. “Hell of a mess. Hard to believe anyone survived.” Gabriel turned away without answering and headed down the corridor, lost in his own thoughts. Yes, he had survived. Survived a test, which still gnawed at him. Was he that expendable that the Navy could throw him into a meat grinder of armed convicted felons? And a limpet mine to boot? The walk back to the lab was over a third of a mile. In his mad dash to the target, it seemed to take merely seconds to cover that distance. Now, as he walked slowly past another cleanup crew — a man scrubbing blood off the floor in front of the elevator bay and a woman patching a mag pistol round hole in the wall panel — that same distance seemed to take days. This had all been a test.
