I sat down next to him and scratched at my hand, around the edges of the cast that was immobilising it, wrist to fingers. It was itching like hell. Getting shot sucks, trust me. They reckoned I’d get full use of it back eventually but right then I still couldn’t move two of my fingers properly.
“How’s the knee?” Mendhel said.
It was a mess, ligament damage they’d said. And it was hurting even though the brace had an auto-med feedback injector that was supposed to keep me up to date with pain medication.
“It’s fine,” I said.
He nodded and gave me a slight smile like he knew I was lying. He looked at us both. “You think we’re going hard on you?”
I was sitting there with sore ribs, an aching back and a black eye that was almost swollen shut. I just stared at him.
He pushed a data board each across the table towards us. “We are. Because this is the job you’re going to do for us.”
