"Dmitri," Hans turned his head toward the yard. "Come with me. Let's see what Pandora actually paid us."
"I will order the team to move them now, Commander."
"Hmm..."
Hans moved, somewhat forgetting the presence of the two young ladies.
"Hans," Yunera called out, just loud enough to sting.
Hans didn't stop.
Yunera's eyes narrowed. "Wow."
Kimmy tugged her sleeve lightly. "Let it go, Sister Yunera. Hans has something on his mind. We should tend to the civilians first."
"I can see that," Yunera muttered. "Next time he forgets me, I will punch him in the face."
...
Dmitri reached to his comms.
"All Echo Teams, this is Echo Actual. Move and secure precious cargo into the fortress. The Commander is waiting for them."
Static cracked.
"Echo One copies."
"Echo Two copies."
"Echo Three copies."
The vehicles that carried the loot roared past the entrance and hurried themselves into the fortress.
