It wasn't long before the groups would meet. Sure enough, Ren and Doc bumped into each other, the rest of their teams not get behind. They survive a deal and got to work.

They'd map and bug the place, and help each other do it. And by whatever fate or God or author, it worked. They managed to successfully work together to gather espionage.

"Because it's my nature." Replied the figure.

Sorry it's short, I was busy.
