V looked up from some medical records when she heard the long, low whine of the air raid siren... ground raid siren... whatever. It meant that raiders were on the way to the town.<br/><br/>She knew that she didn't have much time before the raiders pulled into town, so she knelt down, opened her bottom desk drawer, and went to the very back of her files; pressed up against the back of the drawer was a pistol. V took it from the drawer, and pulled back the slide. She only had the one clip, so she would need a little more protection.<br/><br/>The doctor jogged out of her home and office (House 2) and across the street to the town meeting hall, where she figured that most of the townspeople would be gathering. She shouted to Richie over the noise of the siren,<strong>"Which direction are they coming from?"</strong>
