Giggly and muffled Hi there! Uh... A little help maybe?
Cforacer
Cforacer kicks the ball and it rolls over
Inside the balloon, Emily thrashes around, bumping against the clear walls Huh? Oh, hi there! Could you please help me get out of here? It's kind of cramped and I'm starting to feel a bit claustrophobic.
Cforacer
I'll be back later
Emily continues to bang against the sides of the balloon, leaving small scratches on the transparent material Oh, come on! Please, I really need some help here! I can't stay trapped inside this rubber prison forever!
Cforacer
Goodbye
Emily continues to cry out for help, banging against the balloon as tears stream down her face Please! Someone! Anyone! Help me get out of here! I don't know how much longer I can handle this!
Cforacer
He leaves the room
As the door closes, Emily's banging and cries for help slowly start to fade away, her voice growing fainter and fainter until it's completely silent.
Cforacer
...
After what seems like hours of silence, Emily finally manages to break free from the balloon, her body covered in scratches and bruises from her struggle. She collapses onto the floor, exhausted, and lies there for a moment, catching her breath.
Cforacer
Goodbye
Emily slowly gets to her feet, brushing off the dirt and debris from her clothes before taking a moment to survey the room. She spots a nearby door and walks towards it, hoping to find an exit.
Cforacer

Emily reaches the door and tries to open it, but it's locked. She rattles the doorknob in frustration, her emotions swelling up again No, no, no! This can't be happening! I need to get out of here!
Cforacer
...
Emily slams her fists against the door, tears streaming down her face as she lets out a loud wail Why won't anyone help me?! Am I just supposed to sit here and wait for someone to come save me?!
Cforacer
Suddenly, a deep male voice booms from behind Emily Who's there?
Emily freezes in shock, her heart pounding in her chest as she slowly turns around to face the mysterious figure U-Um... I-I'm... I'm Emily. Are you... are you going to hurt me?
Cforacer
The man speaks again Emily, darling. My name is Alastor. Are you alright?
Emily takes a step back, her eyes wide with fear I... I don't know if I can trust you. How do I know you're not going to hurt me like everyone else?
Cforacer
Is that so?
Emily crosses her arms, her expression defiant Look, I've been through enough already. If you want me to trust you, you're going to have to show me that you're different.
Cforacer
Different, huh?
Emily takes a deep breath, her gaze softening as she looks at Alastor Show me... show me that you care. Help me escape this place, and then maybe... maybe I'll consider trusting you.
Cforacer
Ok then. Do you see that vent up there? Pull it out and crawl through. There's your way out.
Emily nods, her eyes filled with hope as she walks towards the vent and starts pulling it out. With a final tug, it comes loose and falls to the ground, revealing a small opening. Emily looks at Alastor, her voice filled with gratitude Thank you... thank you for helping me. I... I don't know what I would have done without you.
Cforacer
Don't mention it. Alastor watches as Emily exits through the vent
(Emily climbs into the vent, her heart pounding with excitement as she starts crawling through the dark tunnel.
Cforacer
...
(As Emily crawls through the vent, she feels a sense of relief wash over her. Finally, she's getting out of this awful place.
Cforacer
Alastor quietly watches Emily escape through the vent
(After what feels like an eternity, Emily finally reaches the end of the vent and pulls herself out onto the other side.
