Agent Keynes and Cadet Billy waited at the abandoned shed.
They looked at the man approaching them. The ghostly figure clad entirely in black walked slowly, his tailcoat fluttering in the wind.
“Sir, is this really the legendary Special Agent Perseus?”
Agent Keynes nodded.
“Don’t go on his looks Billy.”
Perseus stopped in front of Keynes.
“Keynes. I believe you have the gear.”
Keynes motioned to Billy, who removed the silver pistol hidden below the wood. He could barely hold it. Perseus snatched it with relative ease, eyed it expressionlessly, and holstered it.
“Time to take down Medusa, again.”

Well, with a name like “Perseus” who else would they be taking down? I hope the “gear” includes some mirrors!
