Uncovers the Fae's attack on the Rig

Of course, that depended on how dangerous they thought parahumans really were. They might see the PRT as the real danger and if that was the case, they’d wait until the evacuation was complete to…

“Give me your phone,” I said.

Vicky handed it to me.

The PRT general phone line wasn’t working; there was no point given that the phone lines were down, so I called Armsmaster directly.

“Armsmaster,” I said. “I don’t think the attack on Headquarters was a coincidence. I think they’re planning a bombing to kill us all at the same time.”

They could have attempted to attack both bases at the same time, but the chances of being caught grew exponentially. Headquarters was relatively easy to escape from, but the Rig was surrounded by water, and I suspected that they’d have put something in the water to finish off any stragglers.

“Do you have any…” he began.

The sound of the Rig exploding sounded like the end of the world.
