Troubleshooters 16.8 - Free Fall - Plot & Excerpts
This was not the right way to do this—get tangled in the para-fucking-chute and kill them both—but it was better than missing him. Tony hadn’t cut away—hypoxia’s loss of oxygen to the brain could make the smartest men stupid—and Izzy grabbed on to anything he could—Tony, his pack, the lines—anything. Izzy clenched his entire body and clung like a motherfucker, refusing to let go, locking himself around his teammate with his arms and legs, wishing he wasn’t wearing these gloves so he could grip with his fingertips, too, but knowing that even if he’d managed to pull them off during that dive, his hands would’ve frozen and been even more useless than they currently were. The chute miraculously held, bouncing under his sudden additional weight, and then dropping—marginally—faster than the other six SEALs. Tony’s eyes were open, but no one was home. You’d think the jolt of suddenly being hit by a human bullet would’ve woken the guy up, but he’d completely checked into the stupor suite at the Hotel Hypoxia.
