"I'm calling Boss," she said, "We can't keep waiting. They're making real progress. The maze isn't helping!"
"NO!" Myrex shrieked, "He specifically said, 'Don't call me.'"

"Just checking," she smiled, "I didn't think you had been acting up for no reason at all. Is the time close?"
"Yes," he sighed contentedly, "it is."
This time grins spread up on their faces, outlining the happiness that was inside of both of them. Ahhhhhh, revenge was sweet!
