She inspected the knuckles on her left hand' frowning.

'Ready' chimed a voice.
'Stand by' She said.
'Standing by'.
She tapped Jyr on the backside with one boot. 'You've got two minutes before I call the police and report an intruder'.
She looked away from him.
'Phone'
'Standing by'.
'Phone, please call the loc---'
