Chapter V

Inquisitive people are merely funnels of conversation. They do not take in anything for their own use, but merely to pass it on to others.
Sir Richard Steele (1672-1729)
          English dramatist, essayist, editor

Days after the telephone conversation with Addie, Willard purchased a cellular phone with the associated telepone service.  Calling Addie thereby insured privacy. A further meeting with Richard at Bush Gardens provided additional information about the covert terrorist activities. While the parrots talked Richard told Willard that the organization would begin operation within the near future.
"We should stop them before they begin, " said Richard.
"Terminate them? " asked Willard.
"Stop them in any way you can. "
"I've only killed people during the war. "
"This is war. "
"What is the site? "
"Wintergarden. "
"Ha. "
"Why do you laugh? "
"Out of the way, huh? "
"Outside Orlando "
Richard informed Willard concerning the street location. That evening Richard drove to the site, and observed for activity.  Humidity hung in the atmosphere like a wet blanket.  Love bugs hit his automobile as he watched the building from a block away across the road.  He had 20/10 vision so that he would be able to observe anyone entering or exiting from the building.
The three story apartment building had some lights on the third floor.  A woman dressed on the first floor behind a curtain, her silouette dancing with the light.  A cigarret hit the pavement from the second floor window, igniting the ground with sparks.  His M60 with grenade launcher on the seat next to him reflected the lampost glow.

His vehicle accelerated to 79 miles an hour in 10 seconds 400 horses galloping at top speed.  On the turnpike toward Orlando Willard turned the CB and police band on for monitoring reactions.
"Report an explosion in Wintergarden, " said the lady on the police radio.  "Dispatch police from Orlando and Wintergarden to site, because of the nature of the explosion. "  Willard monitored the highway patrol responses to the lady.  "Patrol car 283 responding, what is the address? " Page 19
Glass fragments and other debree covered Willard's car as he approached his
