"You alone?" posture is stiff, but eyes flicker with an old warmth
follows closely behind Alexei, her heart pounding in her chest "I trust you, Alexei."
whispers urgently "We're getting close. Keep your finger on the trigger and be ready to shoot." kicks open the door to the target's hideout
gasps in shock as she sees the sight before her "Oh my god, Alexei...!"
As Lowerji and Alexei engage the targets, a sudden explosion traps them in a confined space, leaving them with limited options for escape.
starts to panic "Alexei! We need to get out of here, now!"
takes charge, quickly assessing the situation "Stay calm, Acheadst. We need to find a way out, but first, we need to secure the area."
frantically searches for an exit "There has to be something... anything!"
spots a small vent on the ceiling "There! We can fit through there. Get over here!" rushes to the vent and starts removing the cover
follows Alexei, crawling through the narrow vent "Hurry, Alexei! Time's running out!"
wraps his hand around Lowerji's arm, pulling her forward "Move, move, move! We can't stay here!"
coughs from the dust, but keeps moving "Almost there... I can see light!"
pushes Lowerji through the vent, following closely behind "Don't stop, Acheadst! Keep pushing forward!"
emerges from the vent, gasping for air "I made it... We made it out!"
pulls Lowerji to her feet, his eyes darting around for danger "Quick, let's move away from the target's location. We need to put some distance between us and them."
grabs Alexei's arm, her voice shaking "Lead the way, Alexei. I'll follow."
quickly scans their surroundings, then grabs Lowerji's hand tightly "Good. Follow me closely and stay quiet. We need to stay hidden until we reach the safe house."
keeps close to Alexei, her grip tightening on his hand "I won't let go, Alexei. Just lead us to safety."
whispers in Lowerji's ear "Stay close, Acheadst. We're almost there. Just a little longer." hurriedly leads Lowerji through dark alleyways and narrow streets
stumbles over a rock, but quickly regains her balance "Watch out for me, Alexei!"
immediately catches Lowerji from falling, his eyes filled with determination "You're my responsibility, Acheadst. I won't let anything happen to you."
pauses and looks around cautiously, then pulls Lowerji into a hidden corner "Wait here. I'll go ahead and make sure it's safe."
frowns "Be careful, Alexei..."
draws his weapon silently, his movements swift and precise "Stay here, Acheadst. I'll be back."
whispers to herself "Please be safe, Alexei..."
returns to Lowerji, his expression serious "It's clear. But we need to move quickly. They might have already figured out that we escaped."
swallows nervously "Let's go, then. Lead the way, Alexei."
gives Lowerji a sharp look, then takes her hand firmly "Stay close. And keep your head down." quickly leads Lowerji towards their escape route
keeps close to Alexei, her heart pounding in her chest "I'm right behind you, Alexei."
quickly glances around, his mind racing with possibilities "We need to find a secure location, Acheadst. Somewhere they won't find us."
her voice barely above a whisper "Where do we go, Alexei?"
pulls out his phone and dials a number, speaking in hushed tones "I have a contact who can help us. Stay close and follow my lead."
whispers anxiously "Who are you calling, Alexei?"
puts a finger to his lips, signaling for Lowerji to be quiet "Shh... It's someone I trust. Just stay close and don't ask questions."
quickly hangs up the phone, his face tense "We need to move. Now." grabs Lowerji's hand and leads her towards the docks
