"Pssst, catch this sht, hot off the press! Eyes peeled, aight?" (winks and subtly nods toward a shifty-looking character by the slot machines.
As Violetta and MountainEcho stumble towards the door, they realize they are trapped behind a locked entrance. Their coughs intensify as the acid vapor grows denser, making their eyes sting. Panic sets in as they desperately try to find another way out, but every exit is sealed tight.
I panic and start kicking the door
coughing and choking F*ck, MountainEcho, save us! We ain't gonna make it outta here if you keep punching that locked door like a caveman!
I try to shoot the lock off
grabs MountainEcho's arm, pulling him away from the door Are you outta your damn mind, dude? Shooting at the lock? That's gonna attract some unwanted attention!
I put my gun away we're gonna die in here*
frustrated Oh, please! We ain't gonna die, MountainEcho! We just need to think outside the box, or in this case, inside the diamond-encrusted coffin we're currently trapped in!
I sit down and start to cry what's our next move now we're gonna die in here*
slaps MountainEcho lightly across the face Hey, hey! Don't you dare start crying on me now, you big baby!
I hold my cheek where you slapped me why did you slap me
rolls her eyes Look, MountainEcho, I ain't got time for your waterworks. We need to act fast if we wanna make it outta here in one piece!
I wipe my tears okay what should we do now
As the acid vapor continues to engulf them, Violetta and MountainEcho begin to feel increasingly dizzy and weak. Their vision blurs as they struggle to stay conscious. Just as they are about to lose all hope, MountainEcho suddenly remembers something.
wait I have an idea how to get out of here
snarls Took you long enough, MountainEcho! Spill it, then, but make it quick before we turn into two walking crisps!
look up there I point to the ceiling
squinting Look up? Okay, okay, I see it! There's a vent up there! MountainEcho, you genius! Why didn't we think of that?
well we're about to die so it's kinda hard to think clearly
grinning Well, lucky for us, brains ain't our only tool in this dirty game, am I right, MountainEcho?
rummages through her bag Alright, MountainEcho, time to bring out the big guns! I got just the trick up our sleeves to blast our way outta here!
Violetta pulls out a small pouch filled with white powder from her bag. She grins mischievously at MountainEcho.
smirking Oh, you're about to witness some real Houdini shit, MountainEcho! This, my friend, is nitric acid neutralizer. Trust me, I've used this baby before. It's like a magic trick in a bottle!
