Wham!

The floor of the cabin jerked up hard and I was thrown sideways against the seat. The metal frame made a sound like a big can being crushed and the whole plane pitched forward.

"Sierra! Hold on!" Christian yelled, his boots sliding across the floor as he grabbed me. He pushed his back against the wall. Stopped me and Leo from hitting the front of the plane. "Marcus! The controls are not working! Help Deborah use the controls!"

"The pressure is dropping to zero!" Marcus shouted from the co

    Vroom!The huge metal bridge of the ship shook hard when it hit the cold Atlantic water. The medical kits on the floor slid over the place and the instruments inside them made a lot of noise. The big map in the middle of the room broke into a lot of pieces and they spun around in the air like fireflies."Sierra! Hold on to me!" Marcus yelled. He grabbed the radar console with his hand and his face was white with pain. "Julian! Protect the baby! The pumps are not working!""I've got him! I've got him!" Julian screamed. He was on top of Leo trying to keep him safe from the glass. "Sierra look at the wires! The electricity is going the way! Its taking energy out of your arm!"I could not scream. My jaw was. My teeth were hurting. The needles in my arm were glowing with a light and it felt like my body was on fire.. Then I heard a voice in my head. It was Christian. He was saying Mma... Mma... Owo... Do. It was a sound and it made me feel a little better."Sierra... Breathe. Let me take t

  • THE CEO'S STOLEN SECONDS    CHAPTER 59: THE SYNCHRONIZATION PULSE

    Hummmmm!The stainless-steel cryo-containment capsule started vibrating with a pitched whine. It made my teeth ache. The frosted glass window of the cylinder began to thaw in lines. Heavy drops of condensation fell onto the floorboards of the bridge.Inside the pressurized chamber three bio-synthetic heart valves were pulsing. They weren't ticking like machines. They were throbbing with a rhythm. It sent a shockwave through the air.Thump-thump-thump-thump!"Julian! Grab the baby! Get him to the command deck now!" I screamed. My voice was cracking with panic. I threw my body forward. My hands slipped in Marcuss blood. I tried to drag my left leg across the metal floor. The silver surgical needle fell from my fingers. It clattered loudly against the iron tracking."The proximity is too close! The induction field is already crossing the room!""The baseline is spiking! It’s tearing through his dampening grid!" Julian shrieked. His face twisted into a mask of horror. He lunged across the

  • THE CEO'S STOLEN SECONDS    CHAPTER 58: THE KINETIC PULSE

    Beep-beep-beep-beep!The little red light on the gold thing in my hand was. Making a high pitched noise. It was like it was vibrating fast. This was sending a pain up my arm. My fingers were closing around it tight. My muscles were locking up. It was hurting my shoulder."Sierra! Let go of that thing! Throw it in the water!" Christian yelled. He was holding me tight around the waist. He was trying to get me to drop it. He was slipping on the blood on the floor. "It is burning your hand, Sierra!""I cannot let go, Christian!" I said. I was crying. The wind was really loud. I was pushing my foot against the base of the tower. My bad leg was just hanging there. "The computer is changing! The other chip is not working! It is putting all the information into my arm!""Julian! Get the cutters from my jacket!" Christian yelled. He was trying to hold my wrist. "Julian! Now! Before it is too late!"Julian was not moving. He was just standing there. He was holding Leo. Looking at his little com

    Click-click-click-click.I felt the rhythm vibrating through the iron floorboards under my bare wet foot. It was coming from the lower engine room companionway. The sound was a heavy ticking that seemed to match the dying rotation of the radar mast above us."Julian step back! Get away from that hatch!" Christian yelled, his body moving fast despite the freezing tremors shaking his limbs. He shoved Julian backward with his forearm and grabbed the heavy iron cargo crowbar from the deck racks. His muscles were completely rigid his knuckles turning white as he raised the iron bar over his shoulder. His dark eyes were wide flashing with a protective look. "Marcus give me the sidearm! Now!""The holster... Its flooded, Christian!" Marcus groaned, his body slumping against the base of the windlass as Deborah tried to tie a second canvas binding around his bleeding thigh. His face was gray a glaze of cold sweat on his forehead. He gritted his teeth, his chest heaving as he pointed a tremblin

    Clack-clack-clack-clack!The big guns on the Benson-01 ship suddenly. Pointed down at the water. A loud siren started screaming from the speakers above us. It was so loud it hurt my ears."Sierra! The water is boiling! Something else is coming up from the undercurrent!" Julian yelled. He was running back to the radar tower. He was holding Leo tight against his neck. He did not want the baby to get hurt. "The drone isn't looking at the helicopter anymore! Look at its lens! It’s tracking a signature right under our hull!"I pulled myself up using the edge of the navigation table. My bad leg was swinging beneath me. It hurt a lot.. I had to keep going. I wiped the grease and water from my eyes. I looked out at the sea.The big black drone was tilting forward. Its camera was spinning around. It was throwing a light across the waves. The ocean was foaming like crazy. A big whirlpool was forming twenty yards from our ship.Splash!A small yellow capsule came out of the water. It was like a

    Crack!A big bolt of lightning hit the tallest radar mast of the Benson-01. The metal tower. Groaned under the electric blow. It sent a lot of hot sparks flying across the rusty iron deck plates. The loud boom of thunder shook the ship. My dead left leg slid across the metal as I tried to keep my balance against the storm."Sierra! Get down! The helicopters rotor wash is coming right for us!" Marcus yelled. He slammed against the steel console to block a flying piece of aluminum. He grabbed my waistband to keep me from sliding into the open cargo hold. His face was slick with rain and engine oil. His dark eyes were wide with fear and a strong desire to protect me. "The pilot is losing control! The cores magnetic pull is dragging his tail rotor down!"Above us the Swiss tactical helicopter spun around in a crazy circle. Its searchlight was flickering like a dying flashlight. It sliced through the rising steam in arcs. The underslung kinetic cannon let out a whine as its electronic trac

    Crash!The glass tray of tools on the bedside cart shattered on the hard floor as Marcus violently lunged forward. His huge hand clamped onto my wrist just before my bleeding thumb could hit the button on the cracked data-pad."Sierra don't do it!" Marcus roared. His voice boomed inside the clinica

    "Get away from that monitor!" I screamed, throwing my full weight against the reinforced glass door. My shoulders screamed back at me, but the door held solid. Inside Leo’s room, the two federal tech-agents jerked away from the monitor, boots skidding over the linoleum. They spun to face me, eyes w

    "Hold on!" Christian shouted into the headset, his voice somehow louder than the chaos of the helicopter engines as the Sikorsky suddenly tipped down toward the wild gray sea.A wall of wind slammed into us, knocking the cabin sideways at a terrifying angle. For a split second, I felt weightless, a

  • THE CEO'S STOLEN SECONDS    CHAPTER 26: THE TWELVE-HOUR HORIZON

    I slammed the silver flash drive into Christian’s good shoulder, shoving his slumped, blood-soaked body back against the icy tile along the lobby wall. “Look at me, Christian!” I screamed, my voice sharp and broken as it echoed under the tall glass ceiling. My bare hands were slick with both his
