constance johnson sat under her favorite tree.

the sun was shining, and constance looked more aristocratic than ever.

briggs approached, looking a little more disheveled than before..

ah, there you are.

where else would i be?

we have new instructions.

again.

yes, again. this operation is being shut down, and we are to report to headquarters for our new assignment.

is that not a bit abrupt?

everything is abrupt.

what about our two young proteges?

i have an address where we can drop them off on our way to headquarters.

is it out of the way?

only a hour or two. if we don’t get lost.

i hope we don’t get lost.

i don’t see why we would.

i am glad you are so confident. do you remember the last time?

of course i remember the last time. how could i forget it?

i suppose we might as we might as well get going then. have you informed the children?

i thought you might prefer to do that.

whatever, i will do it.
