Miles to Midnight

[Erremnart]

"Long miles to Midnight indeed, Morreti.", she replied with a heavy sigh. She knew that she was picking the lesser evil of all evils she had available for her and her crewmen. But one thing was choosing a course for the new future, and other matter entirely was to actually execute it. Some of her men were loyal and she knew that they would not object this decision, but there were also those who could and would actively sabotage this whole endeavor, taking others out with them if necessary.

"I don't even know how to pull this off without painting huge target marks between our eyes and lining us at shooting range the moment we start taking those loved ones or relatives from Veracruz. The more desperate situation will become, the more paranoid Insurgency hardliners will be. I'd certainly be if I still was one of them.", she smirked, even silently giggled when she said the last sentence. A point of no return was approaching in their future and she knew it all too well - take everything they can and burn all the bridges behind them, "I believe that they expect various factions or even units pursuing their agendas when the whole organization will start falling apart. There are people - high and low ranks - who are going to fight to their last breath in there.".
