It’s like something out of a movie Selene thought as Snake completed his speech. A hysterical giggle lurked at the back of her throat but she choked it down. This would be her first battle, the first time anyone had shot at her in earnest. Without conscious control her fingers began to tense and relax, curling into to fists and then spreading them again. Steady Selene, you're a professional, a doctor, you're trained for this. Suddenly a practice in the Swiss alps didn’t seem like a tremendously boring way to spend her life after all.

She caught Snake’s eye as he finished his speech and the hysterical giggle slipped out inspite of her. Blushing she closed her hand around the handle of her pistol. It would be alright. She could do this.
