Paul has said that they are near Mesa Verde.
Given that what has taken us a couple of weeks to observe actually took a very short time to happen, from the time Kath met Atsali in the Library to now, I'm a little cornfuzzled about how Brandi (or anyone) could have set it all up. The only way I can see is if Atsali herself is some sort of agent who has guided Kath through all of this. And even then, it is a huge assumption that they would survive the mine explosion and being launched through the air to crash in the exact right spot. They were almost killed as it was (at least Kath was). Very shaky planning on Brandi's part, if it was her.

Brandi may have, in an earlier life, discovered Kathrine's affinity for this place and knew she would wind up somewhere around here when she disappeared from the library.
Even the wild coincidences of the mine/cannon and the utter collapse of the underground complex may have been played through many times.
Maybe Kat's supernatural talent is for catastrophic archeology rather than turning into a spider or something.
Nope - this is the first time this happened.

Yes, she did, but she could not have left notes about this stuff with Kath and Atsali because, as I mentioned, this is the first time it has occurred.

Ehh.. Apaches have winches?? Or did they send a flight group with a blackhawk or a Chinook, covered by an Apache.
Given the ruckus, a Chinook wouldn't be too improbable. Apaches have the scanner-suites, Chinooks (or blackhawks) have the passenger/equipment hauling. It's the way I would choose if the search for people and -more often than not- dangerous artifacts was the goal.
(Lived near a military base in my youth.. Daaaamm...Chinooks are lóud)
Well, never mind. The MIB are here to "assist", I wonder what they are going to find now they will probably have some réal research apparatus available, like ultrasonic scanners, ground radar, remote sensing sattelite feeds, and whatever exotic things modern archeology uses.
And, yes, i agree with other posters. There's a distinct whiff of Brandi here (Patchouly, very, vèry light touches of vanillin, a pince of sandalwood, all of it very subtle, lightened by a shade of citrus. She doesn't seem the type for heavy smells... Ehh..

wait.. Got carried away there)

Doesn't necessarily have to be another transport chopper, she's maybe being dropped off?

I think they landed the chopper outside and rappelled down.

As has already been pointed out - no. Reset was 3 months ago.

weeeellll, I guess it is atsalis's guardian called the alarm, they saw what portal was used, and the copter base being nearby, just a quick phone call to scramble a copter, just follow the big explosion, and find the huuuuuge hole.....

I like recipes with brandy in them...they usually smell super tasty!
And now for the serious stuff...I'm kind of sad that the dynamic duo now are part of a group, but it's good to see our vamps again! That means (hopefully) that we're about to get more information about what the heck is going on here.

I doubt Phix will 'do' anything to Atsali. Like any good librarian she has contacted Atsali’s mother.
Which is of course why Atsali is saying her oh noes over and over under her breath. She is going to have to face her angry harpy MOTHER, waiting with Phix for her return.
Nothing like having your wings pinned back and jesses on your feet to keep you from getting too far from home... LOL

Maybe not a 'copter, but a very large dragon, sphinx, or bat with a Glamour spell active.

That picture bothers me - it appears that he's sitting directly in front of the air intake for a
big honkin' turbine engine.

By the way, I forgot to say that early Sunday morning, I dreamed I was watching Wapsi Square: The Animated Series. The part I remember watching was Monica at some marketplace stall, holding handmade action figures of herself and Shelly, asking if there were any more, and the shopkeeper hadn't noticed who was talking yet. That's all I can recall. I do have a vague sense that the shopkeeper was going to totally freak out once he looked up.
