Hackett watched as Ashleigh approached, the laptop on her legs beeped quietly as it cleaned up several satellite images that Anna couldn't quite make out, and her mind wondered what the young scientist would have on her mind.<em>"Alright, Anna. I'm sure I could just do this myself, but you guys are the experts in terms of not getting killed, so I'll ask you."</em>Hackett nodded her agreement, closing the laptop over and turning slightly to face Ashleigh directly.<em>"Naturally, if I'm going to be studying this virus, I'll need a lab. Considering this is Germany we're talking about, that shouldn't be such a peculiar thing to come across. The question, though, is whether there's one that isn't completely crawling with... um, well, zombies. One that is intact would be brilliant, too."</em><br/><br/>For a moment Hackett stared with a blank expression at Ashleigh, blinking rapidly as she noted that she had been wrong in assuming Ashleigh would have some sort of portable lab. Of course that was a dumb idea in hindsight, but at the time it sounded like a realistic idea. Just another reason to prove Anna had no business in fancy, technical affairs like this, she was better going in and killing anything that threatened the mission, and being gone and a ghost before anyone even knew something had gone down. "<strong>Right, well, our first order of business when we're on the ground is figuring out whats around us and where the infected are likely to be hold up. Then we'll find you a lab; I doubt it'll be hard, as you said, and maybe it will double as our secure shelter.</strong>" Hackett shouted over the screaming engines, looking over at the other two passengers to see if they were awake. "<strong>If something occupies it already, we'll just have to remedy that, that is why I'm here in the first place, right?</strong>" Hackett added for good measure.<br/><br/>On a whim, Hackett turned her attention back to Ashleigh and smiled. "<strong>Are you okay with the jump? Any nerves going on?</strong>" Anna was generally concerned about Ashleigh, partly because she was the mission but more so because Anna knew how scary the first jump at night could be, she felt the same tightness in her chest and stomach the first time she jumped in the dark, even on an unfortunately clear night like this it was a harrowing experience, to say the least.
