"Well...shit." Yohji stared blankly across the room, his attention completely focused on the detached voice in his ear. On some level he'd suspected that would be the case. Schwarz had the disk...and they knew that it would be used. Yohji had found it pretty hard to fathom them willingly relinquishing such a powerful weapon without trying to prevent the loss...unless they had already made a copy for themselves. Surely the whole basis for putting such a destructive force on something so common as a disk was primarily for the ease in mass distribution. Shit. Shit shit shit.
Manx's follow-up statement was no better for bolstering his confidence. His eyes slid over to the man in question where Yohji caught him in some comical farce of a pout. He looked like a petulant child whose toy had just been yanked away. Viewed in conjunction with his earlier behavior, it made Yohji's skin crawl.
"Understood. And I wish I had better news for you than you had for me." He answered grimly. "But you can bet your sweet ass I tried to prevent that."
