Chapter Thirty-One

The team had survived the long walk back from the Kemana to the base and collapsed in the fifth-floor conference room to enjoy the day’s fading light. They were all seated around the big oval table, Diana on one side, Cara and Tony on the other, and Kayleigh and Rath on the ends. Max stretched out under Rath’s chair. Each had coffee, except the troll, who had a pineapple juice box. They had finished sharing information about the visit to the underground city with the two who hadn't accompanied them.

“Okay, let’s look at the to-do list.” Diana turned to face the tech. “Item one, force our newest member to stay, whether she wants to or not.” Sounds of agreement came from the other side of the table, and Rath declared, “No leaving. I am the law.”

Kayleigh grinned. “I told you, I’ll be here until you get your act together. Right now, it’s anything but. You don’t even have a proper lab, for heaven’s sake.” They nodded, having agreed not to pressure her in any serious way.

Cara said, “I withdraw my suggestion that we need a med tech right off the bat. Recent events have demonstrated that there are enough hospitals around that are well-equipped to handle trauma. Healing potions can only go so far. Unless we can find someone to specifically assist with injuries from magic, it’s probably not worth making it a priority.”

“Does everyone agree?” They nodded. Diana looked at Rath and thought again that they needed to learn more about how to take care of him.

Maybe Nylotte will tell me. She snorted inwardly. At the cost of one arm and half a leg, no doubt.

She crossed the med tech off the list. “So, what do we need next?” She wanted to let her team weigh in on the important decisions, even though she had the final call. “DC has a couple of long gunners and a number of general agents, plus a face.” She grinned as she remembered Trent’s first attempt to weasel his way in with her and Lisa at the bar.

Cara and Tony frowned. The detective asked, “A face?”

Diana nodded. “Someone who’s good at infiltration and who can slip in and out of a wide variety of situations to get information. And, of course, they need to be able to kick ass.”

Nods and murmurs of agreement passed all around the table. The ex-marshal tapped a finger against her teeth. “I wouldn’t have thought of this before our last adventure, but it might be good to have someone proficient in explosives.”

She hadn’t considered it either, but it suddenly made a lot of sense. “For offense, or defense? Like, demolitions expert, or bomb squad?”

Cara nodded. “Yes.”

They all laughed, and Rath interjected, “You don’t mess with the demolition man.”

Diana turned toward Kayleigh. “Thoughts?”

She shrugged. “It’s not a bad idea, and you're under no pressure to copy DC exactly. The needs are different here. At home, we have to assume the need to lock down areas, like at the hotel.
