In which Gloria gets company
She still hadn't figured out why they hadn't killed her.
Mental assessment of injuries showed that they weren't as serious as they could have been. She had an arm that she would have to favor for a while, but otherwise she was mobile. Given she had the back-up, she could fight her way out. She'd taken a couple hits to the head as well, and she was lucky she hadn't started seizing, but on that front, she was fine as well. She was mostly fine, and that was confusing. Usually Familiars were looking to see them dead more than anything else, but for some reason they took her alive, and that didn't give her warm and fuzzy feelings.
Especially when now Alec and Mickey were on the floor of the cell next to her.
Three X5s, taken alive for no apparent reason, by Familiars that gave her a serious case of the heebie jeebies, even more so than usual, and that was saying something. She was pretty sure that one of the boys in front of her held the answer to that question, it was just a matter of which one of them was going to wake up first.
And as soon as they did, she wanted some answers, real quick.
