pull the pulse out a soldier and bolt

Looks like you jumped the posting order a bit, Luna, but it works so I'm gonna roll with it. ;P

Their pace was steady and quiet, much to the liking of Mordecai. He offered Vectra no words to her statement, if only because she had echoed his already in act plan. They were heading to the edges of their borders to get the drop on them, and that would only work if they kept silent. Meldresi, on the other hand, offered something he hadn't considered. Mordecai had turned an ear back to listen to her words and once again, didn't say anything as he considered the option. Then after a moment, he looked back to her with a smile.

“I think that might work, actually. They'll have to start up the slope, which will slow them down some. We might have an easier job of picking them off.” He turned his gaze to Vectra then. “What do you think? Does that work for you?” She had been vocal about their plan too, so he figured the least he could do was offer the chance for her to get in the final say. Once they had that established, Mordecai had every intention of letting them all stay quiet so they could get into position.
