She took onelook at...Paul and smiled as she sat down and took a finger sandwich."How was that female biker?" Paul asked curiously. "I honestly thought Iwas splashing her with soda not blinding her with dangerous chemicals." I know," Ms. Duller said cheerfully. "No charges are being broughtagainst you or anything.

A small hatch opens and she reaches in pulling out a hand gun and an assault rifle. Upon handing the assault rifle to Story she says, “My sister is in Pod Eight. I was like you, resistant at first. When I didn’t join willingly Johann did that to her. Next it was me unless I converted. It was this or that.”“And you chose that,” Story says, grabbing the weapon.“Wouldn’t you?” Doctor Reading.
