If it wouldturn out like she thought, then she could probably say, with dead certainty, thatthe Planners were not scary any more.e First Platoon would always head to the danger, certain that they wouldn'tbe defeated with old tris. e thing was, even in Paris, it had started to seemlike the Planners didn't have any new tris.ey were aaing the Earth out of desperation. Not due to inevitable conquestfor resources or whatever. It was bullying, plain and simple.And she had craed the jaws of a few bullies in the past. ere was nothingto it.Perhaps there would be nothing to this fight, too. With or without the Knights.Was this Paul's point? Maybe not. is was what Daleworth felt, and whatshe hung on to.Behind the polarised visor of her combat helmet, Daleworth smiled. e Platoonwouldn't need her smile to win. ey'd just need her continuing resolve.And that was what she was going to provide anyway.e fight was already won.
