“Cease-fire! Cease-fire!” Hogan called out.
Mercenaries and Yakuza gunmen dragged their injured and dying companions to cover behind the parked convoy of vehicles in the clearing. Moans of the wounded resonated to drown out the ringing in Hogan’s ears that resulted from the firestorm of automatic weapons cutting the air.
Hogan reloaded his weapon and looked around. He didn’t dare call out to confirm the condition of his men. Betraying the status of their remaining forces would leave them open for any attackers to move in and finish them off. He didn’t know how many were striking from the woods, but he wasn’t going down so easily.
Machida was reloading his two pistols. “It seems the old man had friends in this area,” he said softly. “And they are well-armed.”
“No kidding,” Hogan snarled. “Is there a reason for you to tell me the obvious?”
“It is a more productive use of nervous energy than screaming in fear,” the Yakuza man replied. He stuffed one Beretta into its holster, keeping the other out. His free hand dived immediately for his cell phone, and he hit the speed dial.
“What are you doing?” Hogan asked.
“I am calling for my backup. You call for yours. We’re not leaving without our intended trade,” Machida answered. “Or else.”
“Or else what?”
Machida’s silent stare was more effective than any boast. His calm face housed eyes full of black clouds of fury.
