Dr. Horn calmly returned to his seat and buckled up as if he hadn't just thrown his head nurse of over several decades to her death.
"Well Wu did it work?" Dr. Horn asked coldly.
Wu was still in such shock that she hadn't realized that without Marge's weight the blades were able to maintain altitude long enough for the bones to gradually be ground down. Now at full strength again the helicopter began ascending once again.
"Yes...Yes...doctor. We're back on track." Wu stuttered unable to look Dr. Horn in the eyes.
"Good. Now get us out of here. The mission isn't over yet."
Wu did as she was told and followed the flight path that Dr. Horn had given her when he arraigned this one way trip.
Dr. Horn turned to the still shaken Irina.
"Remember what I said Irina? Law of the Jungle. Just like at work. Sometimes you have to cut off an arm to save the head. Consider this a promotion."
Irina felt disgusted hearing the doctor speak in such a way. Had his caring approach to medicine all been a facade this whole time? It could've just as easily been her who was thrown out of the helicopter. It may still be if she she didn't comply as she could detect the threatening undertone of the doctor's words. Irina wasn't sure what was worse. The monster outside chasing them or the monster she was now trapped with in the helicopter.
"Damn!" Debbie said as she kicked a parked car in frustration. They had gotten away by the skin of their teeth. As stomped her way towards where the helicopter had been hovering just moments ago she thought she heard pleas for help mixed with groans of pain. Debbie looked down towards the roof one of the buildings that sat at her hip and saw a familiar figure. Apparently not all of them had gotten away.
"Marge?"
