Sarah led Joshua around the chaotic fruit market using back alleys. He had been surprisingly quiet so far, no doubt thinking through his questions and saving them for later.

‘The person I’m taking you to controls a small, exclusive organisation in the Pacific,’ she began. ‘It was formed during the war and has been dedicated to training people like me for espionage tactics.’

‘People like you,’ he echoed.

Sarah came up short. ‘Yes. And you. I saw you take down a soldier and the remains you left of that other drone. To be honest, the disabled drone alone would have got me a round of drinks from our tech boys in R&D. But I left it there because I believe I’m bringing back two far more valuable assets.’

She looked at him and he lifted his gaze too suddenly, his mind having been focussed on two other valuable “assets” below the neckline.

He tried his best to change the subject. ‘Fine, fine, but what do you actually do?’

Sarah shook her head and sighed. ‘Don’t tell me you haven’t heard of the Academy?’

‘Yes, but everyone I know thinks it’s just a myth. Some super secret cult out in the Pacific Ocean, lofty ideals of bringing down the Confederacy... the most advanced technology research imaginable, completely run by volunteers... and to top it off, brutally training toddlers from the day they can walk to become... well, ninjas!’ He gave a short chuckle. ‘What is this Feudal Japan? Ha! They should be training Samurai. No one has a shred of honour any more.’

Sarah looked at him. ‘I hope you don’t really think that, you’ve only just met me.’

Joshua shut up.
