"Hey!" Claude called as he approached the pair alongside Guy. "Sorry we're late." Sure enough, Luke and Anise seemed to be in one piece and good health, which was about all he could have asked for at that moment. His body instantly relaxed, and he was relieved that they wouldn't have to potentially fight one of their own for now.

That didn't mean they were out of the woods yet, though. He and Anise were still sick, and maybe even time bombs waiting to go off. When Claude thought about it that way, his stomach churned, and he thought back on the dark figure attacking the patients in the hall behind them.

They needed to hurry. Thankfully, Guy already told them that he'd explained the plan to Claude. There was nothing else for him to do except wait to get a confirmation from Luke and Anise.
