Raisa seemed unamused at best, having to help Valery... But he was in front of her in the vent, he could just not budge until he got what we wanted! Just shooting him would probably piss the old man off, too. She took the torch and helped lower it into the air vent.

"You're the first Red I've ever met. I say never judge until you know who you're talking about, and I don't know a lot, just that you guys are communists." Raisa commented. When they were done, she'd crawl in after Valery.

Further ahead, the Major came to a grate in the vent he could open, the service tunnel just on the other side. He was concerned, and not just about the boy's allegiance. Anything could be waiting in this tunnel... But that was the same with every single tunnel, wasn't it? He could never get used to this part: stepping into an unfamiliar section of the vast metro. He'd wait for the others first. In the meantime, he would be listening for even the tiniest sound in the service tunnel, and make peeks from inside the vent. It was dark.
