Skye squeezed him tighter, as if she'd fall to pieces if she let go. "Please don't-- please don't let them--" It was hard for her to form full sentences without bursting into tears again. She could practically feel Pavel's cold fingers running down her spine-- ripping and tearing at her voxels, demanding the weapon embedded in her disc. She instinctively gripped her upper left arm as if to hide her ISO mark, even though it wasn't visible.
