The guard relaxes, but is still visibly shaken. He'd remained focus to save the girl, but with the adrenaline leaving his system the reality that a life had been in his hands began to sink in. He remembers that the two of them would probably want some time together and decides to focus on that rather than the horror of what was happening. "Ah, alright. Hurry up and say hello you two. We're going to be off a real doctor, but both of you will be in cuffs. So, uh, hug now or whatever."

Ptelea looks at her brother and whimpers fearfully. She remembers him not coming to her rescue. She looks at the guard and scrambles to her feet weakly and hides behind him, shaking. She doesn't feel any pain at the moment, her brain a little cloudy from her heart stopping. She buries her face in his side, crying weakly.

Ambrose blinks a bit at Ptelea's reaction. "Ptel..." He says gently, holding a hand out to her. "Hey, it;s okay. Sweetie, come here, it's okay now." He tries to reassure her. But to no avail. He bites his lip as she stays by the guard. He looks down guiltily. "I'm so sorry Ptelly..." He whispers, turning his head away as tears roll down his cheeks.
