She probably won’t do the field trip, either, because I think they also disapprove of girls riding horseback. The other two thieves backed off and made comments about Unfair Use of Wizardly Devices. At the moment I wasn’t all that crazy about my job. “Disapproves of women working? Will the church pay my rent if I quit?” I asked. I really hate the sound of a breaking kneecap. It crunched and he collapsed back in the dust, moaning slightly. He tried to curl up from the ground with his dagger out, but that sort of move is hard to do if you don’t keep your abdominals in shape. I hooked one foot behind his leg and brought him down with a thump. “She’s about the only mother left who’s at home, because her church disapproves of women having careers.” “I suppose I’ll have to call Vera Boatright, then.” Jill sounded depressed.

The man behind me on the left was moving in now, confident that I hadn’t noticed him. Dazau was my home Jill’s planet was just a temporary address. I just thought, since the only number listed for you is your home phone. “I’m working now, as a matter of fact.” One of the three remaining thieves was trying to circle around to my left. “Riva, this is Jill Garner? With the PTA Volunteer Committee? It’s about the field trip to Shady Brook Stables? We need another driver, and I thought that since you don’t work. His three buddies weren’t helping him, but they weren’t backing off enough for me to safely help him, either. The thief whose hand I’d lopped off was bleeding to death in the dust. “May I speak with Riva Konneva, please?” chirped the voice on the other end of the link. Well, there were still three left, and the one with the missing hand might make it if I got it bound up in time and at least I had time to push the bronze stud on my right wristband that activated the vocal transform and stopped the beeping. He’d specifically said to bring them back alive for questioning. Not only is he the greatest fighter on Dazau, he’s also a hunk: golden hair and thews to die for.ĭuke Zolkir would not be pleased. Actually I’d love to do just about anything you name with Vordo. I’d love to take lessons from him, but he doesn’t teach. Vordo never lets himself be distracted by anything. I guess I can’t really blame it on the call. I bungled the parry badly sliced one man’s hand off and had to shove the point of my sword into the other one’s throat to keep him from toppling onto me. And it doesn’t work at all if Call Trans-Forwarding distracts you for a crucial split-second. Of course it doesn’t work unless you can arrange to be fighting two big stupid swordsmen who get in each other’s way. I’ve seen Vordo do this in the arena, and it’s a neat trick if you work it right you can catch them with their own blades crossed at your guard, give a little zotz to the pommel and they’re both disarmed. The damn beeper went off just as I was parrying the two big guys’ swords at once.
