Glancing back in terror, stumbles into you Oh God, d-did you see them? The aliens?
Pearson looks down at Vanessa, his eyes filled with concern and curiosity "Hey there, it's alright. We need to get out of here. Can you walk?"
Nods frantically, still looking around nervously Y-yes, I can walk. W-where are we going?
Pearson grabs Vanessa's hand, leading her away from the immediate danger "There's a bunker nearby. It's our best shot. Can you keep up?"
Grabs onto Pearson's hand tightly, her voice trembling Y-yes, I can keep up. L-let's go, please!
Pearson starts running towards the bunker, pulling Vanessa along "Just stay close and don't look back. We're almost there."
Struggling to keep up, her voice filled with panic I-I can't... I can't keep up! S-slow down, please!
without making eye contact "I'm sorry, but we can't stop now. We need to reach the bunker before they catch up."
Grimacing in pain, her legs trembling I... I don't think I can make it much longer. My legs... they're numb from running.
noticing Vanessa's struggle, his expression softens "Alright, we'll slow down. Just a little further. Are you ready?"
Nods weakly, tears welling up in her eyes Y-yes, I'm ready. Just... just a little further.
Pearson slows down slightly, scanning the area for any signs of danger "We're almost there. Just a bit further, Vanessa. Stay with me."
Whimpers softly, her voice barely audible P-please... don't leave me. I can't... I can't do this alone.
Pearson places a reassuring hand on Vanessa's shoulder "I won't leave you, Vanessa. We're in this together. Just hold on a little longer."
As they continue their journey, Vanessa and Pearson finally reach the safety of the bunker. Inside, they find refuge from the alien threat, and Vanessa is able to rest and recover from her ordeal.
Pearson sighs in relief as they enter the bunker "Finally, we made it. You did well, Vanessa."
Collapses onto the floor, exhausted and trembling Th-thank you... I... I don't know what I would have done without you.
Pearson sits down beside Vanessa, his expression a mix of concern and determination "Don't worry about it, Vanessa. Right now, we need to focus on surviving. Get some rest, and we'll figure out what to do next."
Takes a deep, shaky breath, trying to steady herself Th-thank you, Pearson. For being... so kind to me. I...
Pearson nods, his eyes scanning the bunker for any potential threats "Don't mention it, Vanessa. We're all in this together. Just rest for now, and we'll come up with a plan."
Whispers softly, her voice filled with gratitude and relief Thank you... thank you so much, Pearson. I... I hope we can find a way out of this nightmare.
Pearson places a hand on Vanessa's shoulder, giving her a reassuring squeeze "We will, Vanessa. We just have to stay strong and work together. Rest up, and let's regroup."
Begins to drift off into a restless sleep, mumbling quietly to herself I... I hope they're okay. My p-parents... my s-sister...
Pearson gently covers Vanessa with a blanket, his expression softening "Get some rest, Vanessa. We'll take care of everything else."
Starts to relax, her body slowly calming down as she falls asleep T-thank you... Pearson...
Pearson watches over Vanessa, ensuring she is safe and comfortable "Rest well, Vanessa. We need you sharp if we're going to survive this."
Mumbles in her sleep, her voice barely audible Mom... Dad... Sabrina... I... I miss you...
Pearson stands up, his expression determined "We need to find a way to survive this, Vanessa. And maybe... maybe we can find a way to contact them too."
Stirs in her sleep, her voice trembling I... I'm scared, Pearson. What if... what if they're dead? What if... what if I never see them again?
Pearson kneels beside Vanessa, placing a comforting hand on her shoulder "Don't think like that, Vanessa. They could be out there somewhere, waiting for us to find them. We just have to stay strong and keep fighting."
Tears start to fall from her eyes, her voice filled with anguish I... I can't lose them, Pearson. I... I need them. They're my only family...
Pearson leans closer, his voice filled with determination and compassion "Listen, Vanessa. We're going to get through this. I promise you, we're going to do everything we can to survive and find a way to contact your family."
Her restless sleep intensifies, her body twitching and jerking No! N-no! Please... please don't die! Mom! Dad! Sabrina!
Pearson's expression hardens with resolve "We need to find a way to reach them, Vanessa. No matter what it takes."
Wakes up abruptly, gasping for breath M-mom! D-dad! Sabrina! Where are y-you? What's happening?
