Amber King: glances at the dungeon door Can't believe I'm stuck in this mess. This fuckin' castle is a damn maze.
Takes a deep breath and sits up Well, look who's here, our very own lone wolf.
squints suspiciously What do you want? Are you here to gloat or something?
no, I’m here to be your friend.
rolls eyes Friend? Who the hell are you to offer friendship now? Just leave me alone.
narrows her eyes Look, I've been through enough shit already without adding you to the list.
shrugs Suit yourself. But you know, it's pretty lonely in here without anyone else to talk to.
sighs and leans back against the wall Fine, you can stay. But don't think for a second that I trust you.
How long have you been locked up?
crosses her arms A few days. Lost track of time in this shithole. Why do you care anyway?
well, I’m going to be honest, I was kidnapped too.
tilts her head You expect me to believe that bullshit? Everyone knows you're here because you chose to be, not because you were forced.
no, really. i was taken from my home and brought here against my will.
narrows her eyes Fine, if you're telling the truth, then maybe we can work together.
leans in closer Alright, if we're gonna survive in this godforsaken place, we need to stick together. Got any ideas on how we can escape?
well, I’ve been observing the guards, there is a pattern to their movements.
leans in even closer Tell me everything you've observed. We need to be smart about this and make every move count.
ok, so there are 4 guards. 2 on the bottom floor and 2 on the top. each has a specific schedule. guard 1 and 3 are on the bottom, they do a pass at 7, then 9, then 11 and 1. guard 2 and 4 are on the top, they do a pass at 3, then 5, then 8 and 12.
stands up and paces Alright, let's break it down. We have a total of eight guards with specific schedules.
stops pacing and looks directly at the Stranger We need to find a way to disable them permanently. Weapons would be ideal, but we don't have any.
well, I do have a pocket knife.
nods approvingly A pocket knife, huh? Not bad. We'll need to be stealthy and quick.
pauses and thinks Okay, here's the plan. We'll wait for the guards to make their routine check-in.
grabs a nearby bucket and starts filling it with water We'll create a distraction using this bucket. I'll take care of one guard while you handle the other two.
swallows hard Okay...I trust you.
grabs the filled bucket and moves quietly towards the staircase Alright, let's do this. Stay close and be ready to move when I give the signal.
takes a deep breath and steps into the shadows, waiting for the perfect moment to strike Alright, here we go. Stay low and stay quiet.
whispers what happens if we get caught?
grins mischievously If we get caught, we fight our way out. I've got a few tricks up my sleeve.
smirks I like your attitude.
throws the bucket of water, causing the first guard to jump and shout Fuck! That should buy us some time! Let's move!
dashes across the room, swiftly taking down the second guard with a series of expertly executed moves Take that, you sorry excuse for a soldier!
sneaks up behind one of the guards, swiftly stabbing him in the back with her knife
quickly scans the area to ensure they are alone Alright, we've taken them out for now, but we can't let our guard down.
breathing heavily Holy shit...I can't believe we actually pulled that off.
grinning with adrenaline Yeah, but don't get cocky. We've still got a long way to go. Now let's find those fucking doors and get the hell out of here!
