The door to Catherine’s office is closed, but mine is open so I go in and straight over to the interconnecting door between Catherine’s office and mine. This door is usually open but it is closed now, so I knock and poke my head in. She looks up to me with the phone attached to her ear, gives me a big smile and waves me in. Lifting my M4 over my head, I collapse into one of the chairs opposite her.

“Yes, Mum, I will. Now, I have got to go; Andy has just arrived back, okay? I love you, yes Mum, bye.” Catherine finishes, gets up, and comes straight around the desk to sit in the chair next to me.

“Andy, you look drained; what on Earth happened down there?”

“It wasn’t good, they broke through the windows in the foyer. There were hundreds of them, and they came at us relentlessly. We lost Ian and Steve. I didn’t think I was going to get out of there myself for a minute.” Catherine reaches to put her hand on my shoulder, but I pull back. This shocks her.

“Sorry,” I say to her smiling. “It’s not you—I just need to have a shower and get a change of clothes; things got pretty messy down there.”

“Eew,” she laughs, “why don’t you go and do that now, and I’ll get you some clothes ready. It will make you feel better.”

“I will shortly. I need to call Colonel Reed first and try to get Josh again, but tell me what happened with Sir Malcolm?”

“I’m sure Josh is fine; he is his father’s son after all,” she soothes. “I don’t know what is going on with Sir Malcolm. He is acting very strangely. He’s been drinking, and I can’t seem to get any sense out of him. Maybe you can?”

“I will try but haven’t the patience for him at the moment. I need to have that shower first, I think.”

“Go and make your calls then; the sooner you do, the sooner you can have that shower.” She reaches again and takes my hand. This time, I don’t stop her.
