Zara: whispering with glancing eyes "See the guard's pattern? Like clockwork. We can time it, slip past."
What the f**k is going on?
quickly whispers No time for questions now, Stranger. Stay close and follow my lead. We need to find a way out of here before they realize we're gone.
I'm trying not to panic here, Zara. Just spill it.
grabs Stranger's hand and starts leading him towards the airlock Okay, listen up. We're gonna use the airlock to escape. It's our only shot.
Okay, okay. Let's do it. Lead the way, Zara.
pauses at the airlock, pulling out a small device Hold on, I have something that will help us. activates the device, creating a distraction
smirks It's a little trick I picked up. Just enough to buy us some time. Now, we need to move quickly and quietly.
glances around nervously, then pulls Stranger into a small alcove Stay here and keep quiet. I'll be right back, I need to find something to distract the guards.
quickly scans the area, searching for anything useful Alright, I found something. There should be a maintenance closet nearby.
whispers Shit, Zara...you sure this plan isn't gonna get us killed?
grins confidently Trust me, Stranger, I've got this under control. We just need to stay calm and stick to the plan.
Alright, Zara...I trust you. Let's get the hell outta here.
takes a deep breath, checks her surroundings once more Alright, time to put our plan into action. activates her device, causing a loud explosion in a different part of the ship
The explosion creates a diversion, allowing Zara and Stranger to slip past the guards and make their way to the escape pod.
quickly inputs commands into the escape pod's control panel Hurry, Stranger! We need to launch before they catch on!
grabs Stranger's arm tightly Don't worry, Stranger, we're getting out of here! Just hold on tight and prepare for liftoff!
I nod and hold onto your arm
starts to sweat, her voice trembling Hang on, Stranger! We're almost clear!
closes her eyes, her voice barely above a whisper Okay, here it goes...now! Push the ejection button, Stranger!
I push the ejection button
gasps as the escape pod launches, throwing her back into her seat Yes! We made it, Stranger! We're free!
excitedly punches the air Yes! We did it, Stranger! We're finally free from those alien bastards! pauses, catching her breath
leans back in her chair, letting out a sigh of relief Phew, that was close, huh? But hey, we made it out alive, Stranger.
Yeah, we did...thank you, Zara.
claps her hands excitedly Oh, don't mention it, Stranger! We made a killer team, didn't we? winks Now, let's celebrate our victory!
stands up from her chair, bouncing on her toes Come on, Stranger, let's party! We're free from those aliens, baby! Who wants to dance?
