Nikki looked toward Dianne as Thunderbird 2 approached its ramp to launch. "What do you think we can expect out there? It's going to be as bad as that Russian rescue mission, isn't it?" she whispered.
"Worse, Ah'd think. Ah believe we have our work cut out for us on this mission." Dianne sighed, thinking about what was ahead. "Ah'd expect more injured and fatalities during this rescue. Are you going to be all right?"
"Yeah. Just a little nervous. I've only heard about these things on TV and in history books. Now I'm actually going to witness the devastation they cause." Nikki looked down at her intertwined fingers. "I guess once I get into the work it will become easier."
Dianne laid her hand on Nikki's shoulder briefly as Thunderbird 2 roared away from its ramp.
