Nina took a second to look Mandras over now he was within viewing distance. He was just as big, physically, as he had always been. His biceps were bulging under his tight tee. For a split second she wondered if the tee was simply too small or if he had done it on purpose to make him look bigger. It didn't matter, she thought, he was clearly still working out on a daily basis. His face was still the same square shape, the same grey eyes bore through her and the same short buzz cut she had once urged him to grow out sat neatly on his head. 'Just a little longer,' she could remember saying to him, 'and it will make you look so much better and less of a military psycho.' He still hadn't taken her advice.

"Mand-"

She started to call his name, slowly, seductively even; but the back of his hand clipped her across the cheek. The impact whipped her head to the side and she stumbled back some, before one of the men from earlier pushed her forwards again. He was still quick, despite his size, too quick. And clearly angry. This wasn't good.

Jack lay completely still, nobody had touched him since they arrived. He had woken once more as he had herd the sound of large door being closed shut, the wood had been slammed together and locked, thus waking him. He kept up his earlier pre-tense of being asleep up and didn't move a muscle. Now the vehicle wasn't moving he felt so much better, he didn't feel anymore pain. He worried for a second that maybe that was because the area had gone numb, but after tensing at the thought he felt a slight twinge. That wasn't the case, he thought slightly relieved, if it were, he wouldn't have a chance in hell of escaping, for he would be seriously injured.

He herd movement not far from him, someone was being pushed around, he could hear the shuffle of the persons cloths and then the stumble, maybe he hadn't been taken alone. Then her herd her voice. Only for a brief second, but it was enough. It was the same voice he dreamed about every night, it was undoubtedly her. Nina. For a moment he wondered if this was all a sick joke, but he knew that was impossible. They had both survived, it was unbelievable.

Once the initial shock wore off he listened for any more sounds but herd nothing. Nina had clearly been assaulted and it sounded as thought the attack had quietened her. He took the silence as a chance to think about this situation, he had been taken with Nina, that could mean only one thing. They had taken him for the same reason, information. The thought didn't stick right though, why would they take both of them if they needed data, when he was the only one who held it. If these people were enemies of Nina, then why the hell would they need him? Something odd was going on, he could feel it. He knew he could do nothing until he had gathered all of the information he could about his situation so he simply did nothing except stayed still. There was nothing else he could do, this was out of his control.
