"I'm sorry to have to do this," said Alexander Waverly, as he looked over to Solo and Kuryakin. "But I really do need my top people on this assignment."

Napoleon and Illya looked to each other. Both men were tired after having no time off for almost a month. They had been about to head out of HQ for a week's leave when Waverly had called them back.

"Our job is to answer the call when it comes, Sir," Illya told his boss.

Napoleon agreed, keeping his frustration to himself.

"Thank you, gentlemen. I will make it up to you."
