“There goes your bargaining chip.”
“I’ve got more,” Cherish said, her chin rising a fraction.
Lying?
“Do tell,” Coil said, dryly.
“Certain teammate of yours paid me a visit. Imp, I think her name was? So hard to remember.”
Oh, more bargaining chips. I thought she was talking about explosives. 😛
So are the others going to remember Imp? I suppose Tattletale would.
“What did you do to Imp?” I asked. Grue is going to freak out.
Alright, they do.
Cherish smiled, “She decided to help me get back at the Nine. They’re planning on inflicting a fate worse than death on me, you see. There was a reason I pretended not to notice you were all waiting in ambush.
Called it!
Thought maybe the brat passed on word somehow, until you used that sucker-teleport on me and shot me.
Yeeah, she hasn’t been back, as far as we remember. Do you know anything about that? The “somehow” seems to suggest you wouldn’t expect her to get word back to them by now.
Suppose you’ll have to give me medical attention and keep me alive if you want the rest of the story.”
Dammit, she really does have a bargaining chip with this. Not just over the Undertravelers, but over the audience.
