The guard pitched sideways but surprisingly didn’t tumble, instead drawing a two-handed broadsword and, leaping down from the carriage, attempting t... engage the thief with one good arm. ‘Don’t make this mistake, laddy!’ Roland taunted, closing lightning fast, whirling his sabre in a dizzying dance. As he reached striking distance, he began a lunge that he expertly halted as the man dropped his sword and raised his good arm in surrender. ‘Wise decision!’ Roland exclaimed, drawing close the man. "I ... I..." Petra started to say and then closed her eyes."Yes?!" Just ask Sabina, she is the girl you are after!" She is?" Agent 7 asked somewhat surprised."Yes, I am ... um ... sure that she has the information you seek."Agent 7 grabbed her by the throat again and said, "And you aren't lying to me?"Petra's eyes looked bewildered when she noticed she couldn't breathe again, and when Agent 7 let loose, she coughed for air and then said, "No! No! She knows what you need to know! Please, stop. She was trying to tell me that I knew at least one different route to our destination based on other locations we have visited in the area. She was telling me we could take that route home if the roads became bad.I flat refused. I told her: “I know one way to this destination and I know the same way back. In order to do what your saying I would have to drive to the second location and leave from there to get home.” Boy, she got pissed. I’m sure a lot of you can see her point. I can see her. She then took it out of her mouth and started slapping her face and tongue with it.“Ray, I need your signatures on this….” Katie, my secretary, came into my office without knocking. “Again?” she asked as she could clearly see Rachelle’s head bobbing up and down between my legs.“I tried to stop her,” I tried to say.“Uh-huh,” Katie said as she plummeted down in the chair across from me. “Can you at least sign these papers?”“Hi Katie,” Rachelle said as she took a break from doing her favourite.
