"There are five of them, not four," said Huntsman over the headset.
Mongrel grunted from where he was sitting inside the van. "So either our source lied, or someone joined them at the last minute."
"Another girl. Looks like she knows the others pretty well. Probably last minute, but be careful."
"The team's better-prepared this time," Mongrel replied. "And we're not just pretending to chase someone."
Huntsman didn't answer that. Instead he said, "It's only one of the official targets, though. And they have the informant with them."
"I don't care. I want him and the girl both -- and the informant can spot Anomalies. I want her in the program too, even if she can't pass for human."
"Orders, Mongrel."
He sighed. "Fine. We'll let 'em walk. But if we get a chance to take the girl along with the designated targets, I'm taking it."
