"Sue!" Rob called. Momentarily leaving the princess where she lay he stood and turned his focus onto the tapir. "Are you okay?!"

Sue took a few moments to regain her composure. "Yes, Rob, I'm fine. Wouldya step aside for one moment, please?" Slowly, the tapir limped to Nicole, then kneeled down, gearing herself for a little lecture. "Now you listen up, whoever-you-are. We are Freedom Fighters from Meadowood. We teamed up with your companion, Princess Sally Acorn, in order to decontaminate th' water supply over there, and succeeded. Th' only problem is, escaping wasn't as pretty. Now she's gotta concussion, and what we wanna do is bring up information downloaded t' your hard drive so we can get th' job done, so we can get back t' Meadowood, so we can tend t' th' princess. Orrrrrrrr, should I make it a point to inform th' princess when she wakes up that you were acting veeeeeeeery naughty at a time when we needed ya the most, shocking a poor, defenseless tapir who already has a sprained leg, trying t' get through t' ya?!" She quietly cleared her throat. The lion in her had went to sleep and in its place came a gentle lamb: "Please recall downloaded information regarding Mercia, ma'am."

The PDA had no response. She wasn't being handled by an unauthorized person, no other system was trying to hack her data, and Sally wasn't making requests. Nicole had gone silent and dark.

Rob frowned at the tapir's outburst, taking her by the arm and giving it a tug. "Dove, it's a computer," he reminded, "Just close it and take it with us; as long as the main goal's finished it's more important we get Her Majesty back to the village than complete our plans." Leaving her to do what she may, Rob shifted his focus back onto Sally. He'd heard something once about how you weren't supposed to move a person with a head injury, but... they couldn't just leave her out here either... especially not with all the noise Sue was making. So with great reluctance, he easily lifted her up into his arms and glanced back at the other two. "Let's go."
