TWENTY-TWO

The doctor kept Noah sedated through the night, but canceled the order for sedation the next morning. Noah finally woke up at around 10 AM, and was surprised to find the whole team gathered around him. Sarah had bandages on her own hand, and she had obviously had a bath. Neil and Moose were sitting on chairs across the room, and Larry Carson was chatting with the two of them. When they realized that Noah was awake, they all hurried over to his bedside.

Neil was the first to speak. “I'm going to explain the situation to you, Boss, and I want you to listen to me real closely. I want to make sure you get it the first time, because I like to repeat myself.” He leaned down close to Noah's face. “You are not authorized to get shot! Do you understand me, Mister? No more getting shot, not ever!”

Noah stared into his face for a moment, trying to figure out exactly what the kid meant, then concluded that he was being sarcastic. “I didn't exactly volunteer for it,” he said, and all of them laughed.

“Boss, you're getting a whole lot better at making jokes, lately,” Moose said. “That one almost sounded like you knew what you were saying.”

Sarah pushed both of the men out of the way, and leaned down to kiss Noah full on the lips. Moose whistled, Neil groaned, and Larry Carson said, “If that's what you get for getting shot, I need to go find me a gunfight.” Another round of laughter made its way through them, but then things settled back to normal.

Sarah had already told Moose and Neil what had transpired in the nightclub, and Moose had told her about climbing up onto a nearby building to play sniper. He went over it again for Noah, and then Larry Carson took his place beside the bed.

“You might not have managed to kill Nicolaich,” he said, “but you did something almost as good. The fact that you took out so many of his operatives really pissed off his bosses at SVR. He ran an illegal operation for personal reasons using SVR assets, everything from people to equipment and favors from other governments. He was completely renegade on this, and has been officially disavowed by the Russian government as of this morning. There's a half-million-dollar bounty on his head, so he's not going to be showing himself anytime soon. His entire operation is under investigation, and is almost certain to be shut down. Under current Russian law, the government is not permitted to operate death squads the way the KGB used to do, so a few more heads besides his are going to roll before it's all over. I talked with our boss lady right after that news came out, and she said I'm supposed to put you on your plane and send you home the minute the doctor says you can travel. I got him to admit that you're stable earlier this morning, and he says you can probably fly home sometime tomorrow.
