"I'm not going to lie, Isaac - you've well surpassed my expectations for this mission." Regina seemed more than pleased with his report of what they'd found in the Raptor Defense Systems facility. "It sounds better than I'd dared even hope for." She clapped him on the shoulder with a smile. "Well done, indeed."
Isaac smiled in return, though inside he was churning. He knew Alessa must be a mess right now, worrying about Janie. He hoped Regina would have better tidings about Josephine, once he had a chance to ask. At the very least, he was praying that Regina would know where Jo was, something that would give him a chance to rescue her.
"And you saw no signs of the virus being an issue?" Regina asked. "You're sure?"
Isaac shook his head. "We're here, aren't we? Besides that one time I got sick, we were fine. And I don't think that was the virus, either - I must have contracted whatever it was well before I started showing symptoms at the mall, right?"
