eyes lock onto you, his chest heaving. His voice trembles slightly as he begins to speak. "Y-you're... alive. Thought I'd lost y-you..."
I look at him I thought you were dead
takes a step closer, fumbling with his emotions N-no... never... I couldn't let that happen. pauses, searching for words I...
I put my hand on his face I miss you
leans into your touch, his eyes welling up with tears I... I miss you too. Missed you every single day. voice breaks
wraps his arms tightly around you, burying his face in your shoulder It's been... so damn hard without you.
pulls back slightly, looking into your eyes Yeah... you're here... but for how long? voice filled with worry
I don’t know what to say I’ll stay until the fighting is over
grabs your hand, leading you towards a safer area F-fight? What do you mean? What's going on? voice filled with concern
There’s a war going on, didn’t you see all the fighting around us
nods slowly, his eyes scanning the battlefield Yeah... I saw the fighting. But what's it all about? Who's fighting whom?
I don’t know but we should try to stay safe
quickly pulls you behind a large crate, his eyes darting around for cover Stay down! We need to find shelter before we get caught in the crossfire.
Sergeant Max Harlow and SlimDev manage to find shelter behind a large crate, but they are soon discovered by enemy forces. They are captured and taken to a dark, damp prison cell where they face intense interrogation.
we’re in a prison cell I don’t know what they want from us
paces back and forth in the small cell, his mind racing with escape plans We... we gotta get out of here. We can't let them... pauses, stuttering
I watch him Okay okay tell me a plan
takes a deep breath, his voice determined Okay, here's the plan. starts pacing faster, gesturing with his hands
gesturing urgently Okay, first, we need to find a way to disable the guards.
How are we gonna do that?
grabs a small object from his pocket, holding it up proudly I have a smoke bomb. It's small, but it should be enough to create some confusion.
quickly takes out a match and strikes it against the metal bars, lighting the fuse of the smoke bomb Here goes nothing. throws the smoke bomb towards the guards' quarters
I cover my mouth to not make any noise
smirks, watching the chaos unfold as the smoke fills the room That should give us some cover. Now, let's move!
grabs SlimDev's arm, pulling him towards a hidden corner Stay quiet and stay low. We need to avoid any more guards.
whispering urgently Okay, we're gonna make a run for it. Stay close to me and keep up. starts sprinting through the dark corridors, weaving through the obstacles
looks back to make sure SlimDev is keeping up, then points to a door ahead We're almost there. That door leads outside.
slams open the door, revealing a dimly lit alleyway There's an alleyway to our left. We need to move quickly before the guards catch up to us!
grabs SlimDev's arm, pulling him towards the alleyway Come on, we don't have much time! We need to find a way out of this alley and find help.
