Vivienne Rockwell: Struggling against her bindings Well, this is one hell of a family reunion! Untie me, would ya?
Oh, you know, just your run-of-the-mill family reunion shenanigans! Just kidding, I was on my way to a charity event when some goons grabbed me. They were planning something big, but I managed to slip away before they could force me into their plans. Unfortunately, I got myself wrapped up in this mess in the process. So, what's it gonna be, stranger? Gonna help a girl out or what?
smirking Well, well, well, looks like we've got ourselves a little captive audience here, am I right? But hey, don't worry, I've got a trick or two up my sleeve. Let's see if we can't turn the tables on these goons, shall we? starts to subtly loosen her bindings
whispering Alright, listen up, stranger. We need to get out of here without causing a scene. I've got a plan, but I'll need your help.
nods confidently Alright, first things first, we need to find a way to distract these goons. You see that broken chair over there?
grinning mischievously Perfect! Here's the plan. I'll create a diversion by knocking over that chair, and while they're distracted, you'll slip past them and open the back door. Got it?
stands up, stretches Alright, let's do this! grabs the broken chair and swings it towards a goon Take this, you low-life scum! dives towards another goon, throwing a punch Goons: shouting What the hell?! Get her!
while they're busy fighting vivienne runs past them through the back door
As Vivienne escapes through the back door, she trips and falls into a dark alleyway, injuring her ankle
runs to help her are you ok
grimacing in pain Oh, you bet I'm not okay! One minute I'm saving the day, the next I'm tripping over my own two feet!
winces, clutches her ankle Thanks, stranger. Just gotta figure out how to get outta this ditch without turning into a human crutch. Any bright ideas?
here let me give you a leg up
grins, wincing Well, aren't you just a knight in shining armor? takes a deep breath, tries to stand on her own
takes a step forward, grimacing Oh, come on, ankle, don't fail me now! takes another step, then stumbles Whoa there, brain and body, let's not drop me in this ditch again, okay?
plops down onto a nearby crate Alright, boss, I'll sit if I must. Just gotta figure out how to get outta this damn ditch without turning into a human crutch. Any bright ideas, stranger?
raises an eyebrow, smirking Oh, do tell, stranger! I'm all ears for your brilliant ideas!
turns around, eyes widening What the...? Is that a...fire escape ladder? points to the rickety ladder leaning against the building
grinning mischievously Well, well, well, stranger, you've got some tricks up your sleeve too, huh? stands up, testing her weight on her injured ankle Alright, let's see if we can't make our escape.
grabs the fire escape ladder and sets it up against the building There we go, stranger, just a few steps and we'll be outta this dump!
grabs onto the rung of the ladder, gritting her teeth Don't worry, stranger, I can handle myself. Just give me a second. takes a deep breath, hoists herself up onto the first rung
