''He pushed off again, the slop dropping further. Fulton descended cautiously this time; placing one foot at a time in front of the other. It was a difficult track and it was about to get even more difficult.With the slope dropping nearly sixty degrees, Fulton began to circle away; taking a curve and going against the slope face. This was a route strategy he had conceived to hopefully throw anyone off his scent. He pressed upwards with the balls of his feet; breathing heavily. As he climbed upwards, he could hear more familiar sounds. This part of the woods had the crickets he knew. Their chorus welcomed him and he smiled with relief. He was now very close. Fulton was going to a discreet lab he now seriously doubted could protect his secret. The entrance was fortified with codes; six sets that must be entered quickly and accurately one after the other and in exactly eight seconds. These codes in the past had always given him a sense of invisibility and perhaps power. Tonight, however, what he’d spent years building and protecting was now under threat and there may be nothing he could do save it. But he is determined to win. Before it is put to such evil use, Fulton had decided to destroy everything. Then he and Han will both leave the country by separate airports.
The lab appeared behind a clearing. It was built of rough cut stones and a flat steel roof; sold to Fulton secretly by an Indian. At the door, he didn’t pause to wipe off the perspiration from his face. He quickly began punching in the codes. He was on the last set when he paused, listened. Something was oddly wrong.

He punched in the last number and was about to yank open the twin doors when the woods shrieked back to life!
Fulton almost passed out with shock. He collapsed backwards against the door; his hands clutching his chest as his eyes tore back behind him. The crickets were chirping in their highest registers. What is it? He turned and opened the door.
It happened very quickly. He didn’t hear it when the bullet was fired.But he could hear an echo that ricocheted across the woods like an evil acclamation. He felt it slam into his back and straight for his heart; his startled brain barely registered the pain. His body was lifted and flung forward. He landed far inside the lab. Blood spurted from his nose and mouth
