"Seriously, what's the plan of attack?" Fritz asked over the intercom as he looked down at one of his own burner scrolls. This one was a gaudy rose gold with the symbols: alpha, omega, theta printed on the back. The "sorority girl" was showing she was online and likely the best bet for off-the-books backup at the moment. His thumb hovered over the text button but just as he was about to call her up, he held back.

''I can't do this. Not with her around...''

"How 'bout a Bait n' Bash?" Stella asked, topping off on fire dust for her ammo drums. "Probably our best bet if we're gonna call thier bluff."

"I don't know if I like calling bluffs without a good hand."

"And just like that, we've turned into Azzie." the two shared a quick chuckle. "But seriously, who can we call to get out here this fast?"

"Proverb 25: Fashionably late applies more to firefights than it does parties." Fritz got out of his seat and opened up the encrypted text app on his scroll.

''Stahlfritz: Rainier, Daxton, either of you busy this afternoon? Got something that might interest ya.''

Daxton: how so?

''Stahlfritz: I'm at the Knight's hometown right now, or what's left of it. We're looking at a Realmhead ambush and Stella's thinking we call thier bluff.''

Rainier: that girl is going to get you killed one day.

Stahlfritz: she's had 19+ months to do it and hasn't happened so...

''Daxton: Oi! I called dibs on Fritz's stuff first.''

Rainier: I didn't say anything...

''Stahlfritz: Both of you, quit dicking around. Look, just get out to Tenth as fast as you can and I'll owe you one.''

''Rainier: My marks, my bounty. That's all I need.''

Daxton: you still owe me for that time in Yenaya, but ok.

Meanwhile, Lucina took the Adjutant even lower and looped behind a hill, a 20~30 minute walk but most importantly out of view from the town. Dropping her speed down to a crawl and activating the cloak, the forward door slid open.

"Let's take our time getting there. Little walk in these woods never hurt anyone..." he said as he slid down the ladder into the cargo hold with the others.

"Whatever happened to the power of positive thinking?" Honara wondered out loud as Wolfe left. Hearing a solid 'thud' against the other wall, her hand slapped against her face and gradually slid down. She mumbled '...boys...' under her breath.

When the rattlesnake could finally see again, she saw Cordelia nodding in agreement and Geuda making a face that read: I'm standing right here.

"I'm half Ibaalin so I agree." the Jaguar leaned over the holograms. "Seriously. 250-n-change troops plus that railgun, we CAN hold off an army. I don't get why he's so glum about it."

"Didn't you hear? Wolfe-man doesn't want to risk his people like that. These new destral don't hold back like de old ones." Geuda shook his head as well. "So dat makes only 17 of us dat we can count on."

"17 for now." Honara temporarily dropped the hologram to open up the encrypted text on her scroll.

''Honara: Captain Jackellyn? I'm requesting a Party Wagon immediatly. It's for a suprise birthday so use the truck.''

''Colby: Wait. Now?''

Honara: Did I stutter?
