Alina heard the commotion as she was observing the group. She then radioed to Lieutenant Burkley, "I hope I don't have to board the Little Lady. Also, handle this matter with discretion. Who knows if our nemesis is there?" She wasn't confident that the new batch would handle the dragon mission with discretion. Lieutenant Ivanova was also concerned that the Head of Death may return to hinder the mission, but not so much of Din Mashiro. Nobody can top the Head of Death in the matters of insanity, brutality, and depravity. She was a first hand witness.

Center and his entourage were witnessing the deployment getting ready. Fortunately, there was no need for additional reinforcements. Though the dragon wasn't completely dead, the paranormal can nurse it back to health akin to repairing a ship. Time was money, but it may not be on ParaCom's side if they dawdle.
