Tarifa scrambled over the jagged pile of concrete and steel, her wolf nose searching for the scents she so wanted to taste. She had been calling them telepathically since leaving the Command Center, and the longer she got no reply, the more fear gripped her heart and her stomach.

They had heard the massive eruption of small arms fire only a short while ago, combined with the mortars and plasma cannons. Tarifa spotted the tower that was one of four generating the shield and she saw the body of Isabella's soldier leaning against the damaged wall, clutching the control box in his dead hand.
