Sam Fisher- Hamsters and Rattlesnakes

  Moreau raised his own voice. “Sam Fisher tried to bring down Third Echelon. As a consequence, you people are going over there, and he’s coming back in cuffs or a body bag.”

  “Sir, to be clear, we have orders to shoot to kill if necessary?” Hansen asked.

  “What did I just say, cowboy? Cuffs or body bag.”

  Noboru raised his hand. “Uh, excuse me, sir? Why are you sending us?”

  Hansen snorted and answered before Moreau could. “Because we’re the best.”

  “Some of us,” corrected Ames.

  “I was not privy to the selection process,” said Moreau. “And to be fair, no, I wouldn’t have selected you rookies to go after somebody like Sam Fisher. I told Grim it’s like sending hamsters after a rattlesnake.”
