Sham down, CD-5.  Acoustic deceased, CD-5.  Harsh Mistress down, CD-5.  Resolute deceased, CD-5.  Woebegone down, CD-5…

I had to help, somehow.

No Tattletale yet, but I’m not quite convinced she won’t be coming up soon. Looks like we’re focusing on Taylor figuring out what she’s supposed to do first, though.

I pressed both buttons on the armband and spoke into it, “Direct me to the wounded I can help.  I do not have mobility powers.  I am not very strong.  I do have basic first aid training.”

Ooh, good idea. Taking the same approach the Undersiders were going to, eh?

There was a pause, then a female voice, synthesized, just sharp enough to be heard over the noise of lasers, guns and rain, “Acknowledged.”

The response both relieved and terrified me.  I’d halfway expected that to fail.

Nice. So will the map on the armband direct her now?

My armband beeped and flashed, and I saw a red dot on the map, along with an arrow at the edge of the square screen.

Yup.

As I moved my arm, the arrow adjusted to keep pointing the same way.  It was directing me to near where Leviathan was.

Well, that’s scary.

Man, what if it’s directing her to Tattle?
