I managed to let HQ know our whereabouts just before we were captured and they haven’t moved us anywhere, so they’ll be here I estimate within five hours.”
“If you want to just lie back and await rescue, be my guest,” his prickly partnered replied as he continued to inspect the walls of the cell, “A lot of unpleasantness can happen in five hours and I would prefer to be in one piece. Aut viam inveniam aut faciam. Sorry, that means…”
“’I shall find a way or make one.’” He was about to say something else, but when Illya stopped what he was doing to stare at him with wide eyes, he glared at the blond instead. “What’s that look for?” he demanded.
“Nothing. I was just surprised, is all.”
Napoleon sat up, anger etched on his face. “You really do think I’m stupid.”
The reddening Russian said, “No, Napoleon, I do not think you are stupid.”
“Just stupid compared to you. Admit it: You were shocked I knew that Latin saying!”
Before Illya could answer, the sound of gunfire erupted not too far away. They both recognized the sounds of Walther pistols and knew their rescue was at hand.
Napoleon reached for both cots and turned them over so they would have a barrier between them and the plastic explosive he knew would be used to force the door open. He reached out and none too gently yanked his partner down beside him. “We are so not done with this discussion,” he growled.
