I saw Kasko return and his words registered in my mind but they would not solidify until I had touched him. I took hold of his hand and smiled at his surprise then suddenly I drew him towards me and threw my arms around his neck.
"I'm glad you're okay Kasko," I murmered, pulling away so that only our hands remained joined and then I dragged him back down the tunnel after the others.
A few seconds later he recovered from his surprise and pulled me up to his speed so that we caught up with Caden and Liskano in no time.
"You might be wanting to stop and rest now. That bomb be doing no damage to us," Kasko grinned at them.
"What have you two done, brother?" Liskano asked.
"The Emperor's in for a big surprise," I replied, repeating Kasko's words to me.
