Bab 35: Chapter 35: Diversion

Isaac led the way through the shaft back to the utility tunnel they had first entered through. Carefully, he and Alessa worked their way through the long, narrow hall, listening closely for any sign that they'd been followed. Alessa was not about to walk into another ambush.

After a few tense minutes, Isaac looked up from the map. "If I'm reading this correctly, there should be a maintenance closet up ahead with sewer access." He pointed toward a door 10 yards away where the tunnel ended. "That's our path to the outside. But before we go, I want to create a diversion to distract the guards while we make our way to Janie."

Alessa nodded. She wasn't sure if Janie would even make it that far - after all, they might try to intercept her along her route as well - but she pushed the thought aside. If Janie could make it out, Alessa would be there to receive her.
