"I'm alive," The Mentalist responded, noticeably tired, but relatively okay considering the recent turn of events, "but don't expect me to do any more stunts like that for a while 'cause the Stone kind of drained me. If I did, I'd more than likely go unconscious again.""Alright Cole," Hank replied considering his condition, "since your powerless right now, perhaps you should follow along behind the others as Night Steel, Bobby, and myself lead you guys into the tower. We still have to get Ingeld's wings, and from the way this place is starting to shake we don't have any time to spare."
"Hey..." Cole objected to being called 'powerless,' feeling a little insulted as it sounded like Hank was calling him 'helpless.' However, he dismissed debating the matter, as they did not have the time, and took his place in the rear of the group.
"Alright everybody," Hank called out as he looked the group seeing everyone was present and accounted for, "let's move it!" Bobby and Hank then led the charge down into the stairwell to the second floor of the Fortress with the rest of the group behind them.
