Major Monogram put the files down and regarded Perry the Platypus, who was standing in front of the major's desk. "What do you have to gain by showing me these files, Agent P?"

Perry wordlessly pointed to the one file that Major Monogram had not read. The major frowned and began to read.

...

...

Major Monogram raised an eyebrow at Perry. "Agent P, I thought you retired from the field."

"I did, sir," Perry replied softly.

"And yet you're telling me you want to lead a task force to capture this platypus?"

Perry hesitated. "Sir, she…she killed…" He inhaled deeply. "She's killed a lot of people, sir. She's dangerous."

"She's an assassin, Agent P." Major Monogram sighed. "Do you really think you're a match for her?"

"Yes, sir," Perry replied immediately, a steely glint in his eye. "I think I can take her."

Major Monogram sighed again. "You can only do this mission if you do it solo."

"Deal," Perry said, again replying instantly. He had actually been about to suggest that he do this solo; he couldn't risk this platypus taking out any of his friends.

Not again.

"Solo or duo," Major Monogram amended. "Either alone or take one person."

Perry hesitated. There WAS one person he could bring…but he didn't know if he would be able to bring himself to put his friend in danger like that.

"I suggest your partner," Major Monogram said dryly.

"Sir, what if Octavia kills Ohio?" Perry said bluntly.

"What if she kills YOU?" countered Major Monogram. "Agent O is just as skilled as you, and I know you two will protect each other just as you have always done. Besides, two targets will make it harder for this platypus to get the drop on you."

"Sir, I'd appreciate it if you didn't call us targets," Perry snapped, as disrespectfully as he dared.

Major Monogram just raised an eyebrow. "Two people are harder to kill. I suggest you take Agent O with you."

"Sir, I-!"

"Agent P, "suggest" in this context does not mean what it normally means," Major Monogram said sternly. "It means "order"."

Perry closed his bill. "Yes, sir," he said resentfully.

As he turned and walked away, he scowled automatically.

If Ohio dies on this mission, heads are going to roll.
