Margaret jumped up, her voice cutting through the air. "Hold it right there!"

She turned to General Yardley, softening a bit. "General Yardley, we screwed up, and we're sorry. Let us go, please-I'll hand over the Henderson family heirloom. It's all yours!"
Raven quirked an eyebrow, throwing up a hand to freeze everyone in place.
She hadn't even started hunting for it, and now Margaret was just tossing it her way like a gift.
Well, that saved her a whole lot of hassle.
The Henderson family members stood there, stunned, their eyes popping out at Margaret's offer.
A few of them yelled at once, "Margaret, don't do it!"
One guy stepped up, his voice shaky with panic. "That's the heart of our family! We can't just give it up!"
Another jumped in, his face red and worked up. “Grandpa said before he passed- if one of us can tame that thing, we could get the whole Vyrdenia under control! Margaret, I'd rather sit in a cell than watch that dream die for good!"
Margaret's face tightened, her voice dropping.
"You all know what Bastion Prison's like," she said, "These old bones aren't walking out of there. What? You want me dead?"
She kept going, steady and sure. "Anyway, that thing's been collecting dust with us for years, and nobody's cracked it. Maybe General Yardley can actually put it to use!"
Before anyone could argue back, Margaret leaned toward Jonah.
She picked her words carefully. "General Yardley, can my son go get it?"
Jonah's eyes flicked to Raven.
Raven gave Malcolm a quick look, her tone calm. "Go ahead."
The guy holding Malcolm let him loose.
Malcolm took off toward the Henderson family's safe room, finally free.
Five minutes later, he was back.
He held a small, gleaming white platinum box-about two fingers wide-like it was something holy.
He stopped in front of General Yardley, staring at the box with a pang of regret.
"This thing's been ours forever, but nobody's ever gotten it under control. If people knew about it, it'd just bring trouble," he said, his voice shaky.
