The sound of her voice caused goosebumps to rise on his skin.<span style="font-style: italic">What is happening?</span>He felt a bit nervous, but refused to let it show. It bothered him that he couldn't explain what it was he was feeling. "I'm sorry you were brought here." he said and turned back around to get her out of there. Nick didn't know what to do. The others might try to kill her. For some reason, he couldn't let that happen. He slowly opened the door and looked out. There were others walking aimlessly down the hall. "Stay here. I'm going to find a way to get you out of here." he whispered to the girl and took a step out of the room. One of the others glanced at him. Nick tried his best to keep his expression neutral. He walked down the hall and entered the front area, where he had never been before. There was a small metal desk. As Nick approached the desk, a half demon appeared behind it. "You have have 24 hours. Then we'll send a demon after you. You have 2 weeks to survive and then you will have gained your freedom." the half demon said. Nick turned back around and ran down the hall, opening the door to the room again. "Come on. We only have 24 hours." he said and grabbed her hand to lead her down the hall with him.
