"You cannot be serious Mark. That plan is horrible and people would get hurt" Alan was right but it was no longer a 'cannot happen' scenario. It must happen and they had to be careful.
But first, Mark needed to get Alan to a safer space.
"Not here. Kuro, is anyone listening in?" The inaudible growl Mark felt in his chest meant yes. People were listening in on them and they would go back to report their findings.
"Fine. But we need to address it all. I'm not opposed to this plan though, just a little worried if it'll come back to bite us later" Thank god Alan caught up quickly.
Mark was not sure how much he could count on the other to be aware but this was good. This way Mark could fool the others.
