text: You swing the butt of your gun, cracking into the side of her face and knocking her to the ground with a grunt. The knife goes clattering, and you dart forward, grabbing the knife and raising your rifle to point at her.
  
  
  "Who the fuck are you?"
  
  
  The girl stares at you with anger, blood running down her face from the newly opened cut on her forehead. You recognize her as Dasha, the sacrificial victim from earlier. Huh, apparently she survived. Interesting.
  
  
  "Hands in the air!" you say, pointing the gun at her head.
  
  
  She slowly raises her hands, spitting blood and a tooth on the ground. Apparently, you swung harder than you thought. 
  
  
  "Fuck you!" she says.
  
  
  "You need to listen to me," you say.
  
  
  The girl swings at your head, but you catch her fist. She spits in your face, which you wince at.
  > You try talk to her
  "Look, please, listen to me," you say.
  
  
  "Fuck off!" she shouts.
  
  
  "I don't need you to trust me, just listen! For..."
  
  
  "I said, fuck off!" she shouts again.
  
  
  "Listen!" you say loudly, losing your patience. "Did you see those fucking vampires?!"
  
  
  The girl stares at you, still defiant, but quiet.
  
  
  "If we want to get out of this, we need to work together. I don't care how much you hate me for doing what I did to you, but we need to."
  
  
  "You work for the vampires," she says.
  
  
  "I work for that one," you say, nodding towards Count Grey. "The others killed him, and now they want to kill me... and you. We're on the same side here, understood?"
  
  
  The girl pauses, before slowly nodding. 
  
  
  "If I let you up, you won't try anything?" you ask.
  
  
  "Give me my knife," she replies.
  
  
  "I can't trust you," you say.
  
  
  "I can't trust you either," she says.
  
  
  You sigh, before handing the knife back. She grabs it from your, staring at her reflection in the blade for a brief moment, looking as if contemplating attacks, before looking at you.
  
  
  "What's the plan?" she asks.
  
  
  "I don't know. We need to... Haygarth," you say. "We need to find him. He should be in the stables. He knows this place better than anyone. He'll have keys, know secret tunnels, know everything."
  
  
  "Let's go, then," Dasha says.
