[shadow=red,left]Leyla rolled dark eyes, but she was already twisting, bending her body. She looped her feet around the rope she was hanging from, with some difficulty, and brought her hands around under herself to fumble a tiny razor blade from where it had been taped to her thigh. What was he even doing here? As she flipped the razor in her hand and began carefully sawing through the ropes binding her hands. One minute down, and she was able to jerk her hands apart, snapping the remainder of the ropes. She left the gag, it was irrelevant just then. Instead, she spent the next minute working at the ropes that hung her from the ceiling.
Quietly, she dropped to the floor, already jerking her sleek black hair back into a knot at the nape of her neck, jerking the gag out of her mouth and tossing it to the ground. "You aren't supposed to be here," she hissed at Eli, swiping a handgun from his belt and checking it briefly before she glanced at him. "You aren't-" This wasn't the man she'd assigned. He wasn't even from her group! What the hell?
Elijah, in one swift move, had her against the grimy wall with her hand twisted up and held against her neck, the gun she had taken from him pressed to the back of her hand. "A man's gun is like his firstborn son. I'd advise you not to take it." He told her in his deep, gravelly voice. He took the gun she'd swiped and replaced it on his belt.

He couldn't help it if she'd been so careless as to let it be taken from her. She was lucky he had this tracker on her, or she wouldn't been dead in three, two, one-
The door at the entrance of the long corridor opened and in stepped a few burly men. Elijah raised his gun and took them all out with a few pulls of the trigger. The whole time he stared at the young woman. "There's an exit at the last door to the left. Go through it and take the first door to your right, and you'll come an underground pass. There are rats, so mind where you step. Take the ladder out when you reach it. My men are waiting."[/shadow]
