Raven managed to put an arm around Laurel with a few cusses. But he couldn't do much more.

"Yeah?" Dan replied quietly as she turned the screen back to her.

Wolfe was staring at Dan firmly, "You must not stay there for much longer. Once you are on the Juttle you can explain what happened in more detail. For now, work on getting the others away." he ordered with a trace of gentleness. He knew that was no easy task.

Dan took a deep breath and let it out before wiping her tears away. She nodded a little. "I'll call when we're in the air. Which direction should we go?"

Wolfe thought about it for a moment, "Head back to James's. Bee knows..." he paused, "Where's Bee?"

"She's unconscious," Dan explained. "But I think she'll wake up when we move her."

Wolfe cussed under his breath, "Are you the only one that's not-" he stopped, shaking his head, "Nevermind. Have Bee tell you where to refuel. Other than that make no stops until you get back to James's. Lay low until we figure out who's behind this." he said with a nod.

Dan nodded. "I'll do it." Her voice was quiet, but strong. She'd do what needed to be done.

Wolfe watched Dan silently for a moment before he nodded, "Call once you're in the air." and moved to hang up.

Dan nodded once more before Wolfe hung up. And so she got to work. After talking with Raven for a moment, she ran back to Cong and Bee. After a lot of talking, Dan helped Cong get some of his mind back and they worked together to bring Bee to the juttle.

In the mean while, Raven rested a little before slowly trying to take Laurel to the juttle at their own pace, while Cong and Bee quickly salvaged anything they might need from the house.

Bee indeed started to wake but from the amount of cursing it was clear she rather wished she hadn't.

Laurel hadn't stopped weeping, she clung to Raven but moved along with him as he started to lead her towards the Juttle.

The woman entered Yue's room with a plate of food for lunch, "Have you heard?" she asked as she entered.

When they had everything, Raven worked alongside Cong to get the juttle in the air and on autopilot to James' place. Raven let Laurel keep clinging to him and didn't bother getting out of the pilot's chair once he had sat down. "... I need something for the pain and to keep me from falling asleep," he told Cong. Cong nodded and went to try and find something.

Dan gave Bee some pills to help with the pain and worked on getting the location of the safe gas stop out of her.

--

"What?" Yue asked, a little bored as she brushed her hair.

Laurel had simply curled up in Raven's lap. Eventually she had cried herself out but couldn't fall asleep. Instead she stared off into the distance with dead eyes, occasionally sniffing but never letting go of Raven's shirt.

Bee was finally coherent enough to tell Dan where they needed to land and the passcode they needed to get the fuel.

--

The woman smirked slightly as she set the food down beside Yue, "Someone broke into Cong's place and stole Laurel's father away." she stated, watching Yue.

So Dan passed the information along to Raven before calling Wolfe again.

--

Yue was standing and staring wide eyed in front of the woman before the chair she was sitting on hit the floor. "Who?" she demanded.

Wolfe picked up right away this time. He nodded to Dan.

The woman was smiling at her reaction, "They're working on it." she stated.

Dan gave Wolfe a quick update. "... I'm not sure how long Raven will be able to fly the juttle," she admitted. "Probably not long enough."

--

Yue's face grew very pale before she managed to stop assuming what she considered to be the worst. After a few moments she turned back to the woman, furious. "Sadist," she spat at her.

Wolfe nodded, "Try to make it to the fuel point." he said, "If you need to rest, rest there." His eyes showed he was working through something in his mind. "Alright, I'll let you get back to the others. If anything else comes up, call me."

--

The woman shrugged, "They're in the main conference room if you'd like to join in." she suggested before nibbling on some of the food she'd brought for Yue.
