A few minutes passed where none of the guards spoke as they all watched Scoop on the floor. The chatter from the canteen came up the stairs and filled the space.

If only the rest of the guards would just fuck off, Vicky could talk to Serj about what Moira had said. They needed to act before the crazy bitch could attack them. They also needed to step up the security in Home; they couldn’t have Moira catching them unawares.

Vicky eventually cleared her throat, the sound of it echoing in the hard space. “Guys, we need to get people in the monitor room so we can watch Home’s perimeter during the day. It’ll be useless at night because we won’t see anything.”

Not that Vicky had said it directly, but Scoop looked over at her, her face streaked with tears. “I ain’t moving from this spot. I need to be next to this door when my little girl returns. You know what? Change the locks if you need to; I ain’t moving until she comes back anyway.”

“Flynn, you need to do the first shift,” Vicky said because she had no reply for Scoop. They’d get her in the monitor room when they needed to. After all, it gave her a better view of the outside than just looking through the window.

Flynn turned toward Vicky, instantly on the aggressive as he screwed his face up. “What the fuck?”

Despite the rise in her heart rate, Vicky forced calm through her words. “What’s with the attitude?”

“What do you think? You’re always trying to lock me up in places. Or chain me to a desk outside the gym. Anything as long as I can’t get hurt. Fucking hell, Vicky, you won’t even let me fight the diseased if you can avoid it. What the fuck was that about at the funeral? You put your own life in danger to stop me having to fight a diseased. You’ve seen me kill them plenty of times already.”

A look at Serj and Vicky returned her focus to Flynn. She couldn’t deny he had a point, but she’d take his wrath over his death all day long. “We’re going to take turns, Flynn.”

Flynn continued to glare at Vicky, his boyish face locked tight.

In her peripheral vision, Vicky felt Piotr watching her, but she didn’t look over. Instead, she drew a deep and steadying breath and said, “I’ll draw up a rota. You first, and then we’ll break the day up into two-hour shifts so it doesn’t get too boring.”

Flynn still glared at her.

Sure, Flynn had a point, Vicky did want to protect him, but at that moment, she thought more about Moira. They needed the earliest possible warning of her impending attack. But to tell Flynn that would be to admit what she’d been doing in the evenings. If the others knew, they’d also know they needed to set the diseased free. They wouldn’t let just Vicky and Serj do it. Scoop would see Meisha, and Flynn would be out there with hundreds of diseased.
