Gina, normally a somewhat dour, brooding person, was grinning unabashedly. âWe got Brennan. No question that he ordered the attacks. Weâll be debriefing the security people we captured, but Iâll bet none of the other Council members were involved in this.â
âStill, theyâll all have to be dealt with. There will be trials. There will likely be convictions. Then there will be the question of what to do with them.â Kal shrugged. âMy moneyâs on menial labor.â
Gina blew out a noisy breath. âYeah, letâs not count our chickens just yet. We donât know if there are any more loci of resistance. We may get individuals who keep fighting back, but hopefully we can contain the damage from that. As long as there are no more Council members in the wind, though, I think thatâs it for anything organized.â
âThe biggest thing will be accounting for all the remaining Council members, then.â Kal looked at me.
âSorry buddy, I donât have any special tricks for finding individuals on an entire planet.â I gave him a crooked smile. âOr off-planet, which is also a possibility.â
âOy.â Kal rubbed the bridge of his nose with two fingers. âThis really came down to the wire. If weâd had to fight just one more battle, we probably would have run out of assets. Do you have the printers back?â
I nodded. âAnd Iâve already started replacement construction, but itâll be a few days before anything pops out the other end. If we do find ourselves another fightââ I looked pointedly at Gina. ââweâd probably better go for containment rather than a punch-up.â
Kal nodded. âMeanwhile, we also have a whole society to put back together. I hope you guys are okay with overtime.â
We all grinned back at him.
