Noah managed to laugh just a little despite the situation. [b]"You were fuckin' mental out there."[/b] Noah said, Valko had done a pretty wicked job, even though things went south, Noah had to admit he was pretty impressed ... he was also pretty sore, Valko got the worst end of the bargain, but Noah also saw his fair share of action. [b]"You heard the orders, you gotta stay alive, Vee will be back soon."[/b] he hoped to God ... well if there was one, that Viva would get back soon. With Valko lapsing out of consciousness, Noah didn't even know what to do, plus with every second that passed, they were stuck in this port longer and longer and were at risk of getting caught. If whatever doctor Vee managed to find thought he'd be treating Valko and then quickly returning back to his shift, he'd have another thing coming. They were high-tailing out of here as soon as they got a doctor and ... well maybe they'd have to kill the doctor afterwards to keep him quiet. Noah didn't think that far ahead, he had to focus on each second as it came and passed, he couldn't think much further, stuck in limbo till Viva returned. Loire was surprised when a total stranger suddenly appeared and asked if he was a doctor. [b]"Well I'm qualified but I don't practice at the moment, I'm a researcher."[/b] he replied, somewhat confused, he looked around trying to see if Sandra was nearby, was this someone she knew? Had she sent someone to get him to catch up with her? Surely a messenger would have known to call him by name though. [b]"Oh goodness, pardon my manners, Loire Lanrete."[/b] he introduced, offering his hand to shake hers, he looked at her with concern, she seemed unnerved. [b]"Are you alright madam?"[/b]
