Chapter 21 - A Foreign Encryption Frequency Warms Up In The Forest
Late into the night, after the D.C. security headquarters had locked down under automated security protocols, a signal pulsed.
Deep within the dark woods of the Maryland border, two miles outside the federal security perimeter, a mobile mast raised.
Inside a darkened communications van, an operator wearing tactical headsets monitored a high-frequency satellite stream.
A green terminal screen flickered to life, displaying decrypted military schematics originating from an unknown European server.
A new notification appeared on the screen, bearing an international priority code: Protocol Omega Initiated.
“Director Vance secured the domestic network,” a voice whispered over the encrypted comms channel into the operator’s earpiece.

“Activate the secondary European cell. The real target isn't the D.C. facility... it’s the offshore missile defense grid.”
The operator typed a rapid series of override commands into the terminal, lowered the antenna, and vanished into the night.
