Leyla ignored the men following her as she wove through the buildings on the edge of the city. She didn't slow down or wait to make sure they were behind her- if they were any good, they would be able to keep up. For about half of a mile, she stayed on the edge of town, and then began working her way in, until she reached a mountain of rubble, large pieces of crumbling stone and twisted, rusting metal.
Easily, she slid behind one pillar of broken stone, walking down a slope. The entrance to the old parking garage had collapsed, which made it perfect in her mind. They had gone to a lot of trouble to model over the multiple levels of the interior, to keep the lights on by leaching power from a variety of other sources- never so much that they would be noticed. She had money, but here, it was better not to be traceable. It was still a parking garage, but it was as nice a control center as she could have hoped for, with the lower levels being fully renovated into sleeping bunks, computer labs, weapons armories, and a well equipped hospital. Only the uppermost few levels remained bare, as a precaution against anyone stumbling in or snooping around.
"Isaac," she snapped, her voice echoing off the walls.
A tall, lanky man with a compact computer tucked under his arm stood up from a chair nearby, waiting for instructions.
"New men," she gestured to them behind her. "I want background checks on each- full ones. I want to know who's under my roof, and I want to know who the hell put a tracker on me." She ignored Isaac's dropped jaw. "Send 'em to medical when you're through with them, and then find out what happened to Ben, Kira, and Ishmael. They ought to be back by now." When Isaac didn't say anything, she twitched. "Move!"
It'd been a bad night, to say the least, and she wasn't going to put up with any more crap.
