Exactly seventeen hours, forty-two minutes, and fifty-four seconds later, we were stationed in St Bartholomew’s Hospital, waiting for the exact moment to strike.

How did I know the exact time? It turns out that when you’re trying to fight the end of humanity as you know it, details matter. Also, Charlie had set her watch with a doomsday alarm and seemed to delight in ticking off each passing hour.

“One hour till Victor sells the antidote!” she warned us, tapping her watch to stop the high-pitched beeping. “It’s getting real, everyone! Get your game faces on! Our names will be cleared by dinner!”

“I’m not sure that countdown is helpful, Chuck,” Leo said, grimacing. He stretched his neck up and squirmed away from Mo, whose elbow was smooshed directly in Leo’s face. I swiped Charlie’s swishing ponytail away from where Pickles sat on my shoulder and tried to summon as much patience as I could.

Oh, did I neglect to mention what we were up to? Sometimes, saving the world means you get to hang out in antiquated castles and invent robots that shoot sedatives at unsuspecting bad guys. But sometimes it means you have to cram eight people into one supply closet in a neglected corner of London’s oldest hospital. And trust me, we’d all showered at Arthur’s, but the cramped quarters and chemical smell from all the hospital cleaners was making it more than a little stinky in the room.
