“You’re the one who shot me,” she snarled and lunged at him.

“You know which one I am?” he asked, tilting his head in confusion. “I thought that King was the only one who knew how to tell us apart.”

“Don’t try and bait me, you evil little worm! I know that trick!”

“I think so,” she yelled back. “He says he has Fox. I don’t see how he possibly could, but if we can catch him, he’ll tell us what we want to know.”

“You don’t need to catchme. I’m already here to tell you what you want to know.”

“Still don’t believe you,” Joanne said and tried to kick him.
