An Unstable Fourth, Part 3

In the early light of dawn, five figures were slowly making their way around the perimeter of the arena. Sandy, Terry, and Martin followed Mrs. Mac and a man they didn't know.

The man carried a camera bag and a small kit. He began taking pictures and then snapped on some latex gloves.
