Samuel's eyes never stopped scanning: calculating angles, identifying cover positions, mapping escape routes with the methodical precision of eleven years protecting the world's most targeted individuals.Sterling crouched behind the concrete pillar, his expensive suit collecting dust as reality crashed over him. "I don't understand what's happening."Another suppressed shot sparked off the pillar inches from Sterling's head. Samuel immediately identified the trajectory, mentally cataloging the shooter's position and capabilities."Sniper in your vehicle. Backup positions likely established. This is a coordinated professional operation." Samuel's assessment was clinical, detached. "Your phone. Call building security immediately."Sterling fumbled for his device with shaking hands. "The emergency number is—""Just dial. Tell them: Code Black, building-wide lockdown. Use those exact words."Sterling stared at him. "How do you know our internal codes?""I know more about security than your entire team combined," Samuel continued his tactical assessment while speaking. "Make the call."While Sterling dialed with trembling fingers, Samuel observed the Tesla with professional scrutiny. The shooter was using subsonic ammunition with advanced suppression, indicating extensive training and expensive equipment. No panic movements, no hurried shots; this was patience born of experience."This is Richard Sterling," Sterling spoke into his phone, his voice cracking with stress. "Code Black. Immediate building lockdown. Yes, I'm certain. Garage level 60. Send everyone you have."Samuel gestured for the phone, his tone shifting to federal authority."This is Special Agent Samuel Johnson, United States Secret Service. We have an active shooter, executive protection situation in progress. What's your ETA on the response team?"The security dispatcher's confusion was audible. "Sir, our records show Samuel Johnson as a terminated employee—""Check federal databases! Badge number 2847, Presidential Protection Detail. This is real-time threat assessment requiring immediate federal coordination."Sterling watched in amazement as Samuel's simple declaration mobilized resources he didn't know existed. Within seconds, the dispatcher's tone changed completely."Confirmed, Agent Johnson. Security team mobilizing, federal units notified. ETA is three minutes."Samuel handed back the phone, already moving Sterling to a more defensible position using cover-to-cover techniques that made them nearly impossible targets.
