"International Rescue?" Dominic squeaked. He knew he was losing composure, but to be honest, he didn't give a damn. "International Rescue. Holy bejasus, I was not expecting that."

He turned to Nikki, who was looking equally shocked. Jeff and Dianne stood stoic and expectant, waiting for their answers. Dominic took a moment to relax, and thought. International Rescue! How long had he envied their skills, their equipment? How many times had he wondered what it would be like to help them? Of course he would accept; it was like a dream come true!

But no. Joshua... He could never bring a child into a world like this. International Rescue dealt with life-threatening situations. He did not want anyone to have to tell Josh that his daddy had died. He had already lost his mother, in a way. But... It wasn't like that was even going to happen, was it? He had been with LifeFlight for years, and he was fine.

Dominic closed his eyes briefly, blocking out the massive green machine. Joshua would need to be looked after when he was away. He would need pre-schooling. He would need friends. Was it really fair to bring the child away to a tropical island? Was it? Dom turned to the two waiting Tracys.

"I would be honoured to join your operation." He said. Both looked delighted. "But..." Their faces fell. "I don't know if it's fair on my son. I can't afford to let anything happen to me; I'm the only one he's got. And he needs care, attention, friends, education... I don't know if it's feasible to take him away."

Dianne smiled gently.

"I had the same feelings when I was offered the job. I had three kids; but what right did I have to take them away from their home? Well, I can assure you, Joshua will be well taken care of. I know everyone will lend a hand, and as far as companionship and education go, he can get that here. International Rescue is not just an organisation, but is also a family. We bind together, we help each other out."

"If you decide to join us," Jeff added, "Joshua will get all the care he needs. There's no need to worry about that."

Dominic was silent for a few moments, contemplating. Then, finally, he allowed a grin to cross his face.

"Then I accept."
