<div style="text-align: center;">Lily knew her words had probably gone unheard, but it wasn't like she didn't expect it in his current state. She had attempted it to try to find even the tiniest bit of comfort. She was uncertain what would become of them in the next couple of hours. All the outcomes that played in her head, none of them ended with either of them getting out of this situation alive.<br/><br/>The young female watched the shallow rise and fall of his breath before meeting the gaze of exhausted blue eyes acknowledging her presents, though it was brief. She followed his gaze to the window above her. She frowned as she returned her focus on him, the fight to hold on could be seen clearly in his eyes. The determination he showed somehow helped her find a fragment of hope within her that there still might be a chance even if it was a small one. She looked around the bedroom wondering if there was something she could use to get herself untied, not sure what she would do after she freed herself, but at least it would be some form of progress. That was when Lily heard him speak.<br/><br/>She almost couldn't believe he had the energy to speak. His voice was dry and gruff making her want nothing more than to find water to give to him. Something to aide his current situation. <br/><br/><span style="color: #45B39D">"Only a few days...I was out for a supply run when I foolishly got surround by a group of undead. Dexter's group happened to be in the area and supposedly <span style="font-style: italic">saved me</span>. Dexter told me I <span style="font-style: italic">owed</span> them for using their ammo and risking their lives for mine. Not like I could have refused, he'd just kill me without a second thought. Probably enjoy it too the sick f*ck..."</span> She shook her head in disgust, letting a soft sigh escape her lips. <span style="color: #45b39d">"But I don't want to just sit here and wait for whatever they might do next. I can't. Is there anything in this room that I might be able to use to cut us free?</span><br/><br/>Lily was uncertain if he would tell her if he did have something hidden away in the room. Something they would have missed when they cleared out the obvious items to ensure they had no way of escape. <span style="color: #45b39d">"I know you have no clue who I am and may think I'll just split as soon I cut myself free, but I promise I'm not going to leave you with them. I'll figure some way to get us both out."</span> She knew she was only one person up against six, but she didn't care, she had to try.</div>
