They scoured the mountains for life sources. It was in February, a little past the holiday season, but that didn't mean no one would be here. It was a ski resort, after all. And there was plenty of people and wild animals, if the infra-red scanner told them anything.
"If I were a villain, I'd take refuge in the most desolate area imaginable first, before I came out and mingle. So, let's scour the less popular area," Britney suggested.
They navigated the helicopter. It took at least 3 hours, before they came across anything promising. Alex took the position of checking the landscape at the bottom, to check whether it was suitable for human habitation.
"That's weird," Sam said finally. "I'm picking up six all close together."
"They could be a family," Britney pointed out.
"True – but generally whole families do not have the means to drop into the cabin during this time of the year. Children probably have school and all. But can we find the name under which the cabin was registered?"
Clover punched in the coordinates of the cabin.
Owner: Georgia Fern
Age: 31
Occupation: Lawyer
Sex: Female
Marital Status: Unmarried
Nationality: Dual citizen (Dutch-American)
Country: Canada
Relatives: Parents deceased. No siblings.
"I don't think Georgia would be here, do you? At least not with so many people," Sam remarked.
"I say we pay Georgia Fern a little visit."
"Clover," Alex tried to console her. "Do you really want to kill him?"
"Of course I do. I want to kill all the stupid, idiotic villains who should turn good or die, die, die!"
"The psychologist has snapped," Alex muttered.
"Listen to us, Clover," Britney said in a calm and soothing voice. "Don't do anything rash, okay. Two wrongs don't make a right."
"We're all in this together," Alex said, firmly.
"And whatever happens will happen. We'll do our best, and Blaine will be okay."
Clover stared from one friend to another, and her voice cracked. "You guys," she said, softly.
The other three girls all pulled Clover and formed a group hug.
When they pulled apart, Sam said, "Let's do it."
The other three girls nodded, and parachuted down into the mountains, ready to face whoever lived in the cabin.
Ready to strike before the enemy strikes back.

We're All In This Together – Oh, dear, I hate HSM (especially the second and third movie – just makes me gag!), no offense to HSM fans (hey, the first one was nice).
