Van had thought that he would finally be able to accomplish his self-made mission without any mishaps; but alas, everything that can go wrong will go wrong.
He absolutely had no idea what the small metal thing he was holding could actually do, but since they pointed it at him, then it must be something incredible. Although he was itching to test it on the General, he still quite needed him.
