She cringed at the idea of following through with the instructions at all. With how they were escalating, how long until it asked for something worse? This letter told her to harm someone, what else could come after that but death? "I don't think we need to see what happens. What happened after the last letters? It might be the same?"

No one had said if they had actually done it, but it seemed unlikely they would really admit it. Who would want to admit to being a thief?

She didn't know Clint, except in passing, but the idea of actually hurting him seemed unthinkable. Even if it was an accident or with permission, it would be something that could haunt her. There was enough blood on her hands for her liking.

"I appreciate the sentiment, but I don't think that would be a good idea. It's dangerous. We don't know fully what the Observers want or if that could be what they had in mind. What happens if we step outside their guidelines. We have never seen them angry before."
