<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #4040FF"><span style="font-size: 150%; line-height: 116%;">Alice Green</span><br/><span style="font-size: 120%; line-height: 116%;">'The Huntress'</span></span></div><br/><br/><div style="text-align: justify;">Alice listened to Peter in silence, her dark eyes focused on his while he spoke. She wasn't fully ready to believe everything he had done was justified yet. But she was getting to the point where her mind was open to accepting the possibility.<br/><br/>Just a little time in that planet, combined with her background, had shaken some of her beliefs, but not shattered them to the core.<br/><br/>Keeping her fingers on Peter's hair - every now and then tugging softly on a grey strand -, Alice shook her head when he finished speaking.<br/><br/><span style="color: #4040FF">"I don't think placing someone from my people, as you call them, here would work as well as you think. I have a personal reason to care. I have seen way too much not to. It's... a matter of heart. I thought I didn't have one anymore, but turns out I do."</span><br/><br/>Alice pondered for a moment if the MP knew that Peter had people working under him. If they knew it, would it change anything? Not that she planned on telling anyone. She had made a promise, and she intended to keep it. <span style="color: #4040FF">"I... I don't know what to say, Pete. Nor what to do. Is there anything I can do that would really help? You know I'm not just saying this. You know I care."</span><br/><br/>Alice  leaned closer to Peter and kissed his lips, resting his hand over his bandaged chest. <span style="color: #4040FF">"I don't know, Pete... I just... I want to do something about all of this."</span> The policewoman stirred a little, restless. <span style="color: #4040FF">"I have to do something, I know, but... I..."</span> She paused for a moment and took a deep breath. <span style="color: #4040FF">"On a scale of 1 to 10, how much would you freak out if I said I want to go down there?"</span></div>
