Captain Sylvia Marsh dropped her bags and ran to Allan, giving her old friend a hug, “Hey there, Ge-ge.”
Allan stood back and noticed what his old friend was wearing. Sylvia was dressed in Jeans, boots, a plain blouse, overcoat and most noticeable, a nickel plated automatic strapped to either hip. Allan smiled even wider, “Going somewhere, Syl?”
“Yeah... to help you kick the ass of the sonzabitches that tried to kill my boy.”
Mal grinned as did Jeff, “Glad to have you with us, Aunt Sylvia,” the younger man said.
