Frank patted his new flechette gun.
"So what's the plan boss? Bait and eliminate?"
Alice turned away from Tovey. "As unpleasant as it is; yes, that's the plan if Caitlin will help."
"Will I be ok?" Whispered Caitlin.
Alice smiled warmly. "You have dormouse with you. I can guarantee your safety. In fact, they would have to do something really drastic to hurt you."
"How drastic boss?" Piped Frank.
"Frank..." Growled Pete.
"What? I just want to know how much shit the girl can take!"
"Dormouse is capable of protecting Caitlin against almost anything short of a direct missile strike."
