Highlander Resserection Book One The Promise

Let's Fetch Richie

“Everyone understands the plan right?” Amanda asked for the umpteenth time.

“Yes we understand. Can we go now?” Duncan snapped he was starting to get edgy.

“Calm down Highlander. She’s better at this than you are.” Methos stated as he took another drink of his beer. They had turned Joe’s into a temporary headquarters.

“Do we have everything?” Joe asked

“Yep I triple checked and here’s the check list to prove it.” Diana replied. She was a little anal when she was nervous.

“Good why don’t we start loading everything up?” Joe replied with a charming smile. He was amazed at how well Diana had fit into their little clan. She was definitely one of the family. He grabbed one of the bags Diana handed him then she grabbed a couple. Once they were outside Amanda turned to Methos.

“Are you sure we’re ready for this step. If we don’t have everything where are we going to stash Richie till we get it?” Amanda wanted this to go off with no problems we get in we get out and Richie’s alive again.

“I’m positive now let’s get going before we find out if an immortal really can die from having a coronary.” Methos gave one of his patented smirks as he looked over at Duncan and pealed himself off of his stool. Amanda and Duncan both followed him out.

Joe stopped the SUV at the entrance to the cemetery. “Alright everyone stick to the plan.” Amanda said as she and Diana got out. “We’ll meet you at the site once the guard is taken care of.”

“Alright but be careful.” Methos said looking at Diana

“Don’t worry she’s with me. We’ll be just fine.” Amanda stated “Now go!”

Joe drove off as Diana and Amanda entered the cemetery “Do we know where to start looking for the guard?” Diana asked suddenly feeling nervous now that Methos wasn’t with her.

“He follows a set routine, so he’ll be coming this way in about five minutes.” Amanda explained

Methos and Duncan arrived at Richie’s grave. They put their tools down and took a quick look around just to make sure there would be no interruptions.

“How did Amanda get the marble taken up?” Mac asked

“She used something to make a huge crack in it and you know Amanda.” Methos said “Talking of which do you think it was wise leaving Diana alone with her on this?”

“She’ll be fine I think your letting her go shopping with Amanda is more dangerous.” Duncan stated

“Shopping?” Methos looked confused for a moment.

“Yes shopping they always come back with all those bags and you and I both know Diana doesn’t have that kind of money and Amanda wouldn’t spend that much on her own card.” Duncan said with a small chuckle.

“Diana wouldn’t…” Methos began

“Your right she wouldn’t but Amanda would. Think about it not only would she need to keep from getting caught but she would also have to keep from having Diana find out at the same time. Not that she’s worried about it because I think Diana would just laugh it off and tell her not to do it again.” Duncan concluded
