Chrissie peered around the corner

at the van in the alley. She was pretty sure it was the same van as before,

caught a glimpse of an expensive looking manor house before she began to feel 

extremely dizzy. She tried to sit down but just collapsed to the ground in a 

heap, passing out. The gas emitted by the concealed nozzles in the wall had 

done the trick.
