To Nobu, it looked as if the heroine was staring into space for the next moment. In actuality, Yoko was having a conversation with her distant partner.<br/><br/><em>Video feed is back up,</em>Rika spoke over the link.<em>Are you all right, Yoko?</em><br/><br/><em>About as all right as I can be after that,</em>the Sentinel responded. It was a good thing the neural link could hide some of what she was truly feeling, for the response would've sounded like someone in denial if it was voiced.<em>The girl who rescued me says she can get me out of these handcuffs, but we need somewhere private to do it. Are there any security cameras in the hallway where I'm looking?</em><br/><br/><em>Let me check,</em>Rika answered. The link went silent for a moment, but the blonde was quick with her response.<em>There's one, but I can disable it pretty easily. Want me to?</em><br/><br/><em>If you would be so kind.</em><br/><br/><em>Already done.</em><br/><br/><em>Thanks.</em><br/><br/>With the conversation finished, Yoko turned to Nobu finally and nodded. "I've taken care of the camera back there. We should have privacy there."
