{Number 6 – Many Happy Returns}
Well let’s say the dice were heavily loaded
in Number 6’s favour, well according to the Colonel. Number 6, although he had
escaped the confines of The Village, couldn’t let it rest. He had questions,
and wanted answers, although the questions may well have been his burden, the
answers may well have made a prison for him, had he realized them! After all he
had already been betrayed by one Colonel and Fotheringay, and now he had placed
himself in the hands of another. Then there’s Thorpe, who didn’t take to Number
6 at all, with his sarcastic and somewhat sceptical remarks. He’d probably have
Number 6 put back in The Village as soon as look at him! But who else was there
to help Number 6? He said he wasn’t sure which side ran The Village, which the
Colonel saw as being a mutual problem, and if Number 6 couldn’t solve it there,
then elsewhere. But that couldn’t be allowed, so the sooner Number 6 was back
in The Village the safer it would be for all concerned. And a lesson well
learned in the process!
Be seeing you
