Operation Breakthrough
Up with him. As the helicopter landed on the flat ice in a tornado of snow, Steve walked up to the polar bear and kicked it as hard as he could. “That’s for Paul.” He finished by spiting on the bear and kicking it one more time. Steve turned and headed for the chopper where Sam and Mary waited to deliver them from harm and grant them warm baths and hot food. Kevin followed Steve to the chopper and Eve followed, too. She turned back to Eddy, who was looking up at the glorious red towers of the 293.
Around the area, her eyes following the carnage of twisted metal and frozen body parts. “We can’t just leave them.” Eddy closed his eyes, trying to squeeze every image of death from his mind. “We’ll come back for them.” Silence fell over the group. What they now had to do felt colder than the air. Eddy found the small portion of himself that was still willing to fight, even at the brink of death-a parting gift from Jim before he died in Venezuela. “Listen up people,” Eddy said with a loud voice.
Realized ten-fold. The death toll had gone from three in Venezuela to more than thirty in the arctic. She wondered if hewould ever be himself again. She prayed he would. Eve climbed into the backhoe box and was enveloped by darkness.

It’s too dark in here.” With her last words, Eve’s foot caught on something hard and she toppled forward,.
Mary said with a straight face. “Eddy isn’t in charge of communications.” Sam closed the book, but left his finger wedged between the pages to save his place. He leaned forward. “Who is?” “Eve.” Sam’s face sank and his eyebrows furrowed, creasing his tan forehead. “How’s the weather been up there?” “Radar shows everything is clear.” “Maybe a mechanical problem? Atmospheric events?” Mary shook her head. “No sunspots, and they have Paul and Steve up there with them. I’m not sure what could have.
Of information which may be pertinent to his mission. His head pounded with pain as the frigid waters supplied by the Arctic Ocean swirled away from around his body. He was weak; his consciousness was a swirl of chaoticthoughts, trying to separate new information from millions of dreams. The tube of glass six feet thick slid open and he fell to the floor like a freshly cut evergreen. The room shook as his body struck the hard floor. Laying still, he let his mind wrap itself around the new.
