[ action happens faster than daisy can process it. they reach the bottom of the stairs, and what should be relief at the sight of bright sunlight outdoors is obscured by the immediate knot in her stomach at the greeting of three silent soldiers forming a wall between the main doors and the stairwell.
it's not fair. they've come this far, they've risked so much, they've managed to beat these fucking supersoldiers to the first name on the list only to wind up walking into a fight at the end of it. it's bullshit, is what it is, and daisy won't take it. the soldiers want the parents, she knows that much; the kids are collateral damage, gaby had warned them, likely to be left aside to be someone else's problem while the soldiers claim what they came for.
daisy won't let this little boy be an orphan. not if she can help it. the mask comes down, the gloves go on, and her jaw sets in a fierce, determined line. ]
we have to get them out of here.
[ a mental message, thought-to-text, sent to rey in the blink of an eye. ]
the doors to your left should be unlocked my building uses them as a fire exit send them there, i can redirect the soldiers to the right
we can fight or we can run, but we can't do both what do you want to do?
