Summary
After returning from their mission in Silver River, WV, Sean Fallon reports to Gael Cruz and learns he will be in charge of a new secret squad, code-named the Kill Squad. Gael allows him to choose his men, but says that they must be ready in one week for their first mission and all must know how to keep quiet. Sean decides to recruit Lloyd Collins, former sheriff's deputy, from a Level 1 cell. He then travels to North Hollywood, CA to get Joseph Gallagher, the brother of Karen Sprague; and back to a bar in Cody, WY, where he finds Tom Drake.
When the time comes, Sean joins Gael outside the window of a Level 5 cell, where he learns that Lewis is alive, and that he will need him to complete his upcoming mission in Guyana. The mission team takes a freighter ride through the Gulf of Mexico, which anchors off the coast. They then fly by helicopter to a site where a local inhabitant's manifestation had left only a large crater in its wake. The orders were to cover the site with vegetation before it was discovered by someone with a satellite. To help matters along, Paulette Hawkins, who had been imprisoned when she got in the way of Linderman's plans, had been brought along to assist Lewis by making his ability stronger.
Sean tells Paulette to full use her ability on Lewis, which Paulette thinks may cause Lewis's death. Sean is able to convince her by saying that what they are doing is good and promising that she would see her grandson when the mission is completed. Paulette then uses her ability, causing Lewis to completely convert himself into part of a tree among a forest of dense vegetation that covers the crater. When Gael contacts the squad by radio, Sean orders his men to report that the mission was a success, but that they lost Paulette. He then has Joe shoot her dead, and tells his men to call back the chopper but not to tell anyone else what had transpired.
