However, before Mako could lose his cool in the most difficult battle he was yet to face, he suddenly remembered Victor's words from a few moments ago.
"If only you guys had shown up an hour earlier, I wouldn't have wasted an hour of my life trying to get this answer out of your teammates that I captured, not that I didn't enjoy torturing them."
Mako, his mind racing, knew they couldn't have afforded to wait this one out or who knows what would have happened to his friends.
For now, all he knew was that his friends were alive and their lives depended on their ability to fight back. He glanced at Nathan and Leon, who nodded in agreement.
"We won't back down," Mako said defiantly. "We'll fight, and we'll win."
