I almost explained everything to  
her right then and there. About my     
secret friends and my secret meetings, 
but instead, all I said was, “She      
promised to explain more tomorrow, but 
she also told me that instead of a     
hundred thousand, she’s now going to   
pay us three hundred thousand dollars  
to help her escape, and even more money
if we also helped her two friends      
escape.”                               
     She had a worried look, and pro-  
bably a million other questions, but   
instead, all she said was, “I can't    
wait to hear that story. It's gotta be 
a killer, and I'm not talking about a  
bunny either,” and she was right.      
     And once again, I took a little   
nap before we went out on patrol again.
