Chapter 2

                   Air Attack


                   If he makes his move fast, he can get unseen to one of the guardhouses before

                   crossing the bridge over the moat that leads into the castle and lake. Under the
                   shelter of a guardhouse, he will be able to form an overview of the current

                   situation. It's dark around the castle and around the bridge - thankfully. It won’t

                   be impossible for anyone to spot him, but very, very hard; he takes the chance.
                          From the back seat, he pulls out his thick, dark down jacket, which he

                   places on the seat next to him, then takes his bulletproof vest and puts it over his
                   sky-blue pullover, and then finally, he fits his handgun in his belt around his

                   waist, and his other guns are well-hidden in the jacket one under each armpit. He

                   gets out of the car, closes and locks the car door. Put the jacket on and zips up to
                   the neck. Slightly bent forward, he begins to walk back down Sophie Brahe's

                   street, towards the harbour and castle. As he reaches the street corner he is out

                   of sight of the guests standing outside in front of the restaurant. He picks up the
                   pace and his gait becomes a run, and through the layer of snow that increases

                   second by second. He jogs past the parking area where during the day there are
                   cars and tourist buses with visitors to the castle and the nearby Food Hall.

                   Further through a thick layer of snow that has settled on the open grass area

                   along the path system that leads to the moat itself. Arriving at the first
                   guardhouse, he hurries to seek shelter under the eaves while pressing himself up

                   against the wall, before moving on to the more risky part of the trip - the open

                   bridge over the moat.





                          A big roaring sound suddenly appears from above. As he looks up into the

                   night sky, then out across the water he can see two cones of light, almost likes

                   beacons, getting closer and closer towards his position at a high speed. He
                   squints his eyes even more, with the snowfall disturbing his view, making it

                   difficult to see clearly. The helicopter flies above him, he pushes himself all the
                   way up the guardhouse wall, trying to make himself as small as possible. With a
