Luck!! Who needs it? We sure don't. It's all been bad so far. Kidnapped into Section. The five of us. Then Neil's luck ran out. Four of us. And my luck was almost as bad. My luck got me a bullet in the shoulder. So it must have been the combined luck of the other three that got us back alive. Lucky to be alive. Ha! Lucky to be in Section. Big Ha! Then again. Maybe it was Michael's luck. Or maybe it was Nikita's luck. They have survived somehow in this place. Does luck come from skill? The will to live? the will to survive somehow? We need some of that luck now. How do we get it?

The four of us stood near the door to van access.
Nikita was behind us. We turn around as she says to us. "Good luck", she said to the four of us. Not a specific operson. Did she pass it on to us just then?

I didn't hear the unsaid words.
"You'll need it."
