Chapter 18: Shoot, Luke, or Give up the Gun

Having returned from the ranch, Trayne, Richardson and Beauregard found their street uncluttered by the local constablary, and then found the apartment unoccupied. Soon enough, however, Charles Conway had joined them. And shortly after 10 p.m., as men were checking their timepieces, Sunday and Ringgenberg had arrived.

Now, the men had all gathered as they had agreed. None could deny the satisfaction of completing a task and returning to meet with his pards. The next task before the congregation was to postulate a course of action; to accomplish their goal by hook or by crook, it seems, although which of those two paths would prove to be most effective, or even preferable, remains undecided. That is, even after they had informed each other of the results of their evening's work, from the recruitment of Hadden, Barnes and the others to the reports of the reconnaissance at Hunter's Point and Conway's assurance that he and Mr. Xu had made arrangements for the safety of the women, once liberated.

The men find themselves in a momentary lull, as each one of them considers the path ahead. It is as if each of the heroes is waiting to hear the opinions of the others, before offering his own ideas.

Jake was glad to have everyone gathered in the apartment, all safe and sound. The battle that had taken place just that morning in the Chinatown alleyway had made it clear that their foes would not hesitate to resort to violence. Waal, I reckon that's fair enough, seein' as how we'll be sendin' some their way soon enough.

The Texan turned to Travis and ENS. "Now that y'all have spied out the field, so to speak, are you still of the oh-pinyon that we'll need to fight these rascals inside whichever tunnel thaey use to transport the wimmin?"

"Leastways, that's what I seem to remember you sayin' earlier on, Travis."

ENS looks away from the cave.

Very well Travis... We'll have to consult with Mr. Conway as to the likelihood of a guard tomorrow morning. I think a good look at the cave in the light would help us plan a sound strategy!

ENS walks with Travis back to the apt and engages in greetings with the others as they enter.
