"What, What are you talking about Lennox!? What happened down there!?" Tsuyu asks, her voice starting to swell with a newfound panic.
"The enemy revealed their hand. Freya ordered me back to the ship as soon as she understood the gravity of it. We need to make a report to the elders." Lennox explains, shock and dread creeping up his spine turning his skin slightly pale and slick with sweat.
"But what about Freya!?" Tsuyu argues, horrified at the thought of leaving her behind.
"She ordered us to go." Lennox gulps steadying himself on his feet through the anxiety bubbling in the center of his gut.
"We can't just leave her behind." Tsuyu tries once again the threat of tears emerging in her eyes.
"It was an order." Lennox gulps, swallowing down his worries and fears.
"Screw the order, we can't just leave her here, right!?" Tsuyu argues, nearly breaking out into hysterics.
