Yes. Well. My cover was buggered to hell and back anyway - it was only a matter of time before they decided to call an end to the game of cat-and-rat and lock me up - so I decided to use the best of my time remaining. One-in-a-hundred shot, but...that one percent chance was worth it, I think. The other choice - the only other safe choice - was to run. Leave her behind. And you understand why that was unthinkable.
