"And a hospital visit for a coda," Raidou finished, amusement vanishing. "Damn, I'm sorry. Sounds like you really got dragged over the coals."
Tousaki, too. Raidou winced. He'd met the kid a few times; enough to get a basic read on his personality. Wasn't hard to guess what kind of state he'd be in, with a teammate's blood on his hands. And that didn't even count injuries.
Then there was Tsume's dog. Damn, what a mess.
Raidou almost dropped an automatic hand on her fine-boned shoulder before he remembered himself and scratched the back of his neck instead. In the distance it sounded like the kids had discovered the pond. Judging by the screams, they were exploring it enthusiastically.
"So what about the bastards that got you?" he asked finally, settling on a response not flavoured with sympathy. "Definitely deader'n dead, or are we looking at some interesting upcoming missions?"
If there was a retaliatory strike, he wanted to be in it. |
