Waiting for count-down
The heavy door clanged loudly shut after he left it swinging. He'd run in side the building as soon as Fawkes had made the call, in fact he'd been talking to him as he ran closer to the building. When it came to Darien, there wasn't any place Bobby wouldn't go, she admired that in him.
Do you think he'll be alright? Claire asked the sitting woman next to her.
Of course he will, he's a trained agent, he knows what he's doing, Alex answered in her usual detached manner.
Claire checked her watch.
3:28
According to when Darien had called, they only had about a minute left.
The bomb would go off at 3:29
Alex's eyes shifted to Claire's watch when she thought Claire wouldn't notice, her jaw clenched.
How long should it take? Claire pronounced in the uncomfortable silence.
3:28
Not long if he knows the type, other wise..... Monroe trailed off.
Other wise what, Ms.Monroe? The Keeper asked calmly, anger (or was it fear?) tinging her tone.
3:29
He should be out here any moment now, the female agent, declared, dodging the question.
I'm sure he will, Claire's spoke, taking no effort to hide irritation and anger.
Silence.
3:29
Monroe's verbalization now carried through the thick quiet.
Yes, Alex? The Keeper, tried to resume a calm state.
How much time do they have? the woman made an effort to make the question casual.
3:29
God, twenty seconds, boys get out here!
Twenty seconds, and counting, Claire said, her fear was no longer hidden.
Claire heard Alex's sharp intake of breath at the statement.
They should be out here soon, Monroe said, trying to make alarm sound like annoyance.
3:29
Silence and tension.
Monroe said suddenly,in case they, in case Hobbes....
Alex don't say it, they won't.....
3:29
Just know that, Bobby, he... she stumbled over her words.
3:29
... he loves you, Alex stared straight forward at the building Fawkes and Hobbes had gone into trying not to meet eyes with Claire.
3:29
I know, The Keeper responded, never turning but simply joining Monroe in her stoic gaze across the street.
3:29
*Only three seconds* floated helplessly across her mind. Claire watched the building, tension cramped her entire body.
3:29
