[ Losing Veronica, getting away because of her sacrifice, it had weighed heavy on James since they left. Kinkade had been right to hold him back, but that didn't mean he had to like it. He was supposed to be a good leader and what good was he if one of his team had to get themselves killed protecting the others.
Sure James had been a little irritated at first but he wasn't one to go against orders and Veronica never gave him any reason to not agree with her.
So when she rode in with the cavalry like she did, he was overjoyed. It was relief that had him pushing through the crowd and making his way to her. Relief that had him pulling her into a one armed hug. But it was something else that made him freeze just minutely. Something he couldn't quite explain. ]

Good to have you back, McClain.
