"They have been gone for a while" said Jax, he looked down at his watch and then looked up at Kendra, the group that had been left behind had gathered at the living room.

"You think something bad could have happened?" asked Sara, she had her arms crossed over her chest and was sitting over one of the single chairs, Greta looked at her and then glanced at Jax.

"Yes" she answered, Sara and Jax turned to look at her "Something always happens to make the mission off tracks"

"She has a point" said Martin.

"But we injured Savage a few hours ago" said Kendra "We could be up to something"

"Then why are they taking so long?" asked Greta "They were supposed to be here almost half an hour ago, we shouldn't have let them go alone"

"They are not alone, the four of them are out there" said Jax as he looked at Greta.

"Yeah, well, that doesn't mean something didn't happen, maybe they ran into Savage and without Kendra there, there is no way of killing him" Greta leaned forward over her knees, she looked over at Martin, he was sitting on the second single chair "Maybe we should have gone with them, no?"

"Maybe" Martin agreed with her again. "Let's just give them twenty minutes, if they are not back by then, then we go looking"

"Ok" said Sara, she nodded and looked around the group, Mick, Leonard, Rip and Ray had left to follow the signal that Mick had set over one of Savage's men, the plan had been to follow him back to base, and if the opportunity presented itself, they would take the man back to the Waverider with them.

So far, the ones left behind had no idea what was going on; they had lost communication and that only complicated things.

"Gideon, are the communication lines still down?" asked Kendra, she tore her eyes away from Greta and turned to the door.

"The communication lines are... there was a short pause "The captain and the rest of the crew are walking up the ship as we speak"

The group scrambled up to their feet, Martin hitting the chair with the back of his knees as he stood up, Kendra hurrying around the sofa, her heart beating madly in her chest as she thought of the possibility of Ray getting hurt under Savage's hands; she had already lost Carter one too many times, she couldn't bare to lose Ray too.

Greta rushed behind Martin and Sara, she had squeezed Leonard's hand before he had left and just before that, she had sneaked into his room for a stolen kiss and a secret hug; his hands had wrapped around her effortlessly, his body molding to her like no other ever had, his left hand had disappeared under her hair before his lips had pressed over her forehead and then he had let go of her, she had kissed his lips and then he was gone out the door.

"Be safe" she whispered, her hand squeezing his.

"Always" he smirked as he glanced at her over his shoulder before he was out of the room.

And before they could even reach the departure bay, Leonard and Ray emerged through the hallway, Mick was slouched between them, his arms over his shoulder, his feet dragging behind him and blood rushing down his face, Rip was dashing behind him, blood also rolling down his face and neck.

"Holy shit!" Jax gasped, the surprise evident in everyone. "What happened?"

"I don't know, we had him and we were heading back but there was an explosion and Mr. Snart and I got separated from the others and when we found them Mr. Rory was barely conscious"
