Anika moves beside the portal, but will wait until everyone is through before leaving herself.
Everyone makes a bee line for the portal, The Colonel salutes Anika and the squad warps out on their own. Leaving her as the last person as another warning by SARAH echoes through the facility.
Back at the Institute
Anika is the last to enter, and is barely able to see the surroundings before Sami grabs her tight, “Oh you made it back…” he says in Swedish, “I was afraid something had happened when the portal closed… I was so scared Ani!”
Paragon is there as well. He looks enthused to see everyone back in relatively one piece. “A successful rescue mission, everyone back in one piece…” he glances to Bishop who is still holding Kismet in his arms.
Paragon puts a hand on Mark’s shoulder, “Good job and quick thinking out there. Take some time off, we talk in the morning about the mission. That is an order… Bishop come with me… we need to get them to the Infirmary immediately.”
“Legacy I want you guys to stand down for now, rest, recuperate, and take a well deserved break for your efforts. I worked it out with the UNJE board, Kelly and Cassie will not be charged with any wrong doing, I pretty much put my neck on the line but I told them that Legacy believes and I believe that they are on our side, and we need them. But if you still want to leave and go your own way, you are welcome to. But we here at the Institute hope you will give us a second chance and stay. Take this apology for everything that has happened on behalf of the UNJE,” Paragon says.
Tina stretches her neck, her injuries repaired for the most part giving a short smile to Ryan, she whispers, “Thanks for getting me shot, so this is what its like to do your job. Sort of stressful but I like it.”
