New Rose

Kara has always had the keenest awareness of the perceptions of others. It started in the combat zone when she and her sibling would have to slip through the violence and lawless madness every day to find food or tech scrap to sell. Those kids who didn't learn, on an instinctual, beneath-thought, kind of level were all dead. But Kara had become the best, she'd slip into the gang hideouts and bases, steal whatever she could get her hands on, and out again before anyone knew the difference.

This evolved once she reached adulthood, and she discovered just how effective a distraction a pretty face and a tight body could be. So, when they hit the roof, she leaned into shadow and raw concrete to shield her from view. There was a heavy steel roof access door, built like a trapdoor in one corner, there primarily for the maintenance grid for the networking and power cabling within. Kara watched the Chameleon approach, a little fascinated by the shifting colors and thinking, I really gotta learn how to do that.

She focuses on the lock, a complex series of failsafes, alarm chips, and self-testing sensors. But she grins, these locks are pointless if you know the trick. She slips a small length of wire, no more than a paperclip really, and casually slips it into one gap before sticking out her tongue and fiddling for a short time. The red padlock symbol flashes green and then fades dark with a click.

Kara can't help but grin at Camilla, then she silently slides the trapdoor open, turn her hair black, and lowers her head into the narrow shaft. She then flickers her eyes up to Mercy, judging that the man will fit... Just. With no more hesitation, she slips into the maintenance duct and starts wriggling in an enticing manner until she disappears, hoping to make it to a storage closet, or some other unmanned spot to slip into the building proper.

During the rather silent flight through the city night life, Mercy had reached out to one of his old regular patients called "cipher" via his hand-held agent requesting assistance on hacking into the Biotechnika security system. At the sight of the large Biotechnika neon-building sign, he would send out a final message on the encrypted chat channel provided by Cipher that reads, "Do it now. Landing now. Owe you one!" as he quietly puts his agent back into his pocket after silencing the device. He softly hopped down out of the AV and followed after the two ladies as he states softly, "So the security system should be offline for a couple minutes at least." At the quick work of Kara's security hacking ability, he would hum softly to himself before his thoughts drifted to his older sisters that followed after dad in the CyberTech security field unlike his twin sister that had taken to the criminal life of being a hacker that hated him for some reason.

He shakes his head sighing to himself thinking to himself, "Not the time to get lost in thought about my family issues" before he raises an eyebrow at Kara's quick glance back at him from her bent over form in the emergency shaft, while she is inspecting the tunnel. He chuckles softly calling out to her, "If your wanting some fun, you'll have to wait until after the mission to find some fun" as he grins in her direction. He quickly checks his equipment ensuring it was stored securely before crawling into the metal emergency duct, he shives slightly as he recalls an incident during his childhood when living with his uncle in the archeology city and getting trapped in an old underground ruin when he went spelunking for lost tech with old childhood fling - Bianca. He shudders slightly following after Kara muttering softly to himself, "Its a good thing I'm not claustrophobic" trying to reassure himself about the metal death trap.

All three had made it into the duct without a moment to spare. The moment the door shut three armed Arasaka guards walked onto the roof for their shift. Cypher remote piloted the AV to the next roof and let Mercy know that he had done so via text. It appeared to the guards to be just another AV passing by a common sight in this section of night city. The message on Mercy's phone urged him to let him know in advanced when you need the AV dropped off. It was a close call that could have put the whole building on high alert, lucky Cipher had the good sense to move it when he did.

Now it was tine for him to break further into the security system to held guide the crew along and take care of any security hiccups. As the crew moves through the maintainance shaft faint noises that sound like talking could be heard from offices and the executive meeting room of Biotechnica. It will be a little while before cipher gets back to you with the layout of the building. The duct is pitch black but surprisingly roomy. No ones head hit the top and your shoulders dont hit the sides. The steel is reenforced so no worries about falling through it. Still without the lay out you are crawling through the dark figuratively and literally.

Roll 

Perception (d10 + skill) to hear the talking

Kara loved this, sneaking around and slipping unnoticed over the heads of people who'd kill or capture her the first chance they got. The thrill of moving unnoticed was deep-seated in the young woman. So, she kept onward until she reached a duct panel, leading to a room below. It was hard to tell what the purpose of the room was, but she listened carefully and didn't catch the sound of anyone below.

She turned her head and looked back at her companions, touching a strand of her hair to create just a little neon illumination. Then she lifted one hand and gestured that they could go down here. She didn't realize how the wan light and her grin made her look like a complete madwoman.

     for some this would be a heart pounding adventure, filled with action, suspense, and drama.

     for Camilla?  this was Tuesday, a fairly busy Tuesday, but still a Tuesday

     so with a quiet little flourish the chameleon was in the the ducts behind the others, taking a moment before moving on to realign the vent grate cover up any signs of their entry, and taking a beat to realign her mods as well with the grey metalic hues inside the duct, taking up the rear to mask the others further up in the off chance any of the guards peak in through this end of the duct. and once the others had made their way she went about catching back up.

      supporting herself on just her finger tips and the padding on her calves the chameleon soundlessly makes her way forward. catching up in no time, the others might not have even noticed she stepped away to cover the rear for a moment. locking eyes with kara as she looked back. giving her a quick nod despite mostly being hidden in the shade of the vents.  but she held up a hand, catching some of the voices nearby. wanting to get a better read on where exactly everyone was she put her ear close to the vent underneath them.

Mercy followed after Kara fumbling through the metal tunnel of the maintenance duct, while pausing momentarily to check his hand-held agent device causing the dull green screen light to illuminate around him allowing the hacker friend’s message to be seen. 
 

At the arrival of the executives conversation coming from the nearest grate openings, Mercy would listen into the muffled conversation for any important details to their mission or the building security before shooting out a message asking for a nearby exit away from the filled meeting room.

Spotting Kara’s newly changed illuminated features from her neon hair tech-mod, he would notice her pointing at a new exit to a maintenance room that might lead to the board room.

His attention would turn back to the conversation and mimic Camilla’s action of opening the maintenance grate just past the meeting room holding a board meeting, which he would frown at the potential issue of the grate opening being heard could cause holding up his hand for kara to stop mouth out the words, “don’t room filled!”

Though "Mercy" had trouble hearing the the conversation Camilla could hear it clearly. Though one word did stand out to Mercy. "Bio weapon"  both he and Camilla could see that it was a woman talking to what looked like the head of Arasaka security. Camilla can hear them go into detail about how it was going to be transported with the flower. It doubles as a polinating agent for the flower since it is so rare but used as a weapon it can wipe out whole waves of infantry.

The head of security seems pleased because this could give Arasaka the advantage it needs. As they were talking a green glint from the air ducts caught his eye. Mercy can see him glance up at the air duct. It was a heart pounding situation. It was clear they had been found out, it was then he asked the woman if someone was working up there. She replied that there could be. So he decided to have the shafts checked out just to be sure before he left the office. 

While Kara was at work the others tried to get her attention but the ducts were muffled from the noise of other exects talking to eachother. They had to move fast because security was making their move and activating a drone to slip into the ducts to have a look.

Seeing Mercy mouth the words, Kara tilted her head a touch and... There, she heard them. Close one, idiot. She chided herself. She nodded back at the medtech and thought for a moment.

They'd have to keep going, shuffling deeper into the ductwork and see if they could find a way. A flutter of panic fileld her belly, at the realisation that they'd been noticed. But that was a feeling she'd fallen in love with. A smile crinkled her eyes and she began shiffling forward. Be moving, that was the trick, it was always harder to hit a moving target. She slipped further into the ducts, taking the first corner she could and praying that her companions were keeping pace. She kept on, moving until she came across the next grate and peering into it, heart in her slender throat.

[DrMender]

At seeing Kara’s reactions to his mouthed words and witnessing her finally notice the conversation, he would glance briefly in wonder about the conversation and grit his teeth at the mention of a bio-weapon. He would snarl softly to himself as he chides himself for having pulled out his phone to check the message from his contact near the conversation allowing him to be possible found out.

As he followed Kara down the corridor into the ducts with them taking the first corner, he would see a glowing red light out of the corner of his eye from a slopped duct to his left heading down into the depths of the building underbelly. He would lightly grasp Kara’s leg seeing her glancing out another grate and shake her leg before pointing down the secondary maintenance duct that has the red light coming from it.

He would hope mentally that the girls followed him as he attempts to move toward the secondary duct. He would yelp in surprise as the duct slopes down toward the red light. he begins to panic as he seeing the broken duct before him and the gap to the next part of the duct being too far for him to grab onto or jump onto. 

He would muffle a soft scream as he falls through the gap in the broken metal air duct into the empty darkness below illuminated by the dull red glow.

     the chameleon paused for a beat, a bio weapon this time? she had seen tools of war countless times, everything from revolutionary fire arms, viruses that could brick entire cities power grid in seconds, vehicles that could cover miles in moments well making less noise then a dragonfly... but a Bio weapon was a bit interesting.

     she almost felt a pang of delight at seeing something new for a moment, that moment passed quickly as a loud ear splitting clang came from mere feet in front of her as their paramedic seemed to have a para-left-feet as he made a bit of a racket ahead. and there was a god damn green glow further up. it was almost expected when she heard the god damn Suits below ask if someone was working in the vents.

     It didn't take a netrunner to realize this was quickly going south. normally this is where she would consider skipping out, letting the others get caught, well she finished up the mission. but it was too god damn early to even consider. there had to be some- ~CRASH~ with a deep, quiet breath she looked over to where the cacophony of noise came from, realizing there was a momentary spitup where the medic decided to split off... annnnd fall down a ducts shaft.

God fucking damnit

with a speed that some might think unrealistic for the absolute lack of noise, Camilla launched herself down to join their misplaced medic

[Cash Money Chad]

IIt was then that Arasaka guards deployed a drone into the air duct. The head light of it could be seen getting closer and soon it would be on them. What could they do the thing not only had guns but a camera and if they see their faces the jig is up. Hell even if the try to fight back how long would it be until they are swarmed by security.  Kara stayed quiet making sure to stay out of sight so the drone didnt see her. She stayed low and out of the way of its front end camera. Opting to loose the drone before doubling back to regroup with the others.

Meanwhile Camilla and Mercy had fallen down into a waste compression room designed to compress waste before being dropped down lower and further disposed of. The two roll down a hill of trash before they suddenly stop. They were lucky to not have fallen onto any of the hyperdernic needles that littered the place. However they both perked their head up when they heard a strange dull clicking noise. The red light from before being the warning to stay clear. The machine was about to turn on, but as the two got up the noticed something strange a big black bag moving and writhing in the corner.

Roll for initiative

[DrMender]

Mercy softly groaned having crash landed in the heap of facilities medical bio-waste and discard medical equipment, which brought a small sigh of relief finding out that neither himself or Camilla were injured from his incompetency at the possibility of being found out by the Araska Head Guard. Standing up in the dank, dark garbage compactor with the flashing red light warning of the impending cycling of the medical compactor would bring a brief panic to the doctor figuring that his previous experience with medical waste disposal usually involved incineration. He would call out to Camilla exclaiming, "We need to get out of here, this medical disposal machine is going to turn on any second" and as he began to look around for an access hatch or way out, he would stop pointing his shotgun on the wriggling black mass, while terrified at the words that played through his mind from the Araska Agent, "Bio-weapon". He would quickly fire a round at the wriggling black mass with his shotgun as he exclaimed out in anger and horror having immediately recognized the thing from his simple deduction after running through an impromptu medical examination a safe distance away, "What the fuck kind of experiments are they doing with bioweapons!" He calls out to Camilla and Kara incase she could hear him from the safety of the airducts, "Be Careful, Araska has BioTechnica working on Bioweapons for them and there could be more of them!"

[DreamsnThings]

     One thing after the other was going wrong, after Camilla dived down after the doctor her footing was lost for a brief moment as she tumbled into the trash compactor doc was stuck in. Launching to her feet mid roll she tried to get a read on the situation... only for the ear splitting explosion of a shotgun rang out as stealth was now completely off the table.

     "Fuck it we are going loud boys and girls!" With a flick of her left arm the plates of her inner wrist snapped back as a fire arm snapped to her hand from within her mechanical arm, with a rushed bit of aiming she took two quick shots at whatever was in the bag. One approximately at the throat, the other about level with where she expected the heart to be. The two pops of her gun where muted, not as loud as expected but certainly not silenced, it was fair to think she tried to silence it as best she could without compromising the firepower

[Cash Money Chad]

The bag writhed and contorted on the pile of waste. And once a decomposing hand ripped through the bag Mercy started firing on it. It was then Camilla deployed her sub machine gun and finished it off, connecting the dots on the shot gun holes and ripping it to pieces. What remained looked like mulch in the shape of a human being with flowers comming out of it. The same flowers from the file BTB gave them. It was starting to seem like things were starting to go their way. Just grab a sample and get it out, but no the flower began wilting as soon as Mercy reached for it.

It didnt help matters that the walls were closing in on them. Garbage started to slide up the walls as they closed in, however the closer the walls got they began to form ramps of garbage that were soon going to reach the top wall, acting quickly the two ran up the garbage hills both trying to jump and grab the top of the wall. They agreed that Mercy would give Camilla a boost then she would help pull him out. It was then that they noticed a ŧhick cloud of spores comming from the remains, and whatever that cloud touched began to form buds and decompose. It was then they realized they had to move their asses. Mercy gave her the boost to get out all while watching the cloud grow closer, but there was something else It seemed like some kind of lump clawing its way closer. It was the remnant of the creater, leaking spores and crawling like a dismembered zombie. Soon it was in spitting distance, ready to lunge when Camilla yanked Mercy up by his shot gun with her powerful metal arms.

Mercy was yanked with enough time to watch the creature get crushed along with all of its spores. Then suddenly a hatch opened before the two. Confused they looked up and saw that Kara somehow popped the lock on the door to get them out. It seemed like the three were going to regroup and get this heist back on track. The three took a moment to give eachother a thumbs up. However the celebration didnt last, before they coule even out their hands sown Kara's body began writhing and exploding with blood abd brain matter to a chorus of machine gun fire. Her lifeless body draped over the opening and raining blood down to the metal floor.

When the drone came to examine the body and the area it found nothing out of the ordinary the hatch had already been closed and the two already gone

[DrMender]

Mercy scowled at the sight of his aimed shot at the wriggling mass in the bag was off by a hair having impacted into the wall of the compactor above the decomposing hand that ripped through the bag. At the sudden burst of fire from Camilla's sub machine gun that ripped through the decomposing lump of flesh resembling a human hand with strange flowers budding off the remains. His vibrant green eyes would light up at the sight of the flowers that had been in the file given to them from their fixer client, before he growls out in anger at the flower crumbling away into dust muttering, "Fuck!"

At the sudden grinding of the gears from behind the compactor walls and the screeching of the metal walls closing in around them, he would curse out again and shout to Camilla, "We need to get out of here Now!" as he tries climbing one of the garbage ramps to get out of the compactor. Mercy would look on in horror at the dust cloud billowing out from the remains of the spores coming from the decaying mulched remains of the bioweapon that seemed to infect any organic material around it. With the ever-increasing remnants of the infectious spore cloud decomposing everything and the strange remnants of a zombified humanoid crawling mass that would arrive in spitting distance would bring a sudden yelp of surprise after being yanked up into the crawl space above the compactor by Camilla. 

Hearing the clunking of a metal hatch opening would bring his attention to the sudden appearance of their companion Kara and just as he was going to celebrate with a smile on his face at the escape route, he would growl in frustration as he watched helplessly as their companion was ripped to shreds by a barrage of bullets from the Arasaka drone that was sent to investigate after the close encounter in the air ducts. He would clench his fists tightly causing his leather gloves to creak as the bullet hole riddled body of Kara brought back memories of his first patient that cost him the once loving relationship he had with his sister. Softly growling out to himself, he would mutter, "Fucking Arasaka......" as he added another mental check mark to way he hated the mega-Corp and refused any clients employed by the Corp or job offers to work for the corps. He would sigh noticing that they appeared to have another way out of the compactor into the ducts leading further into the building and calls out to Camilla, "Guess it's just us now...." before asking, "Any wounds from the fall or that thing?"

[Cash Money Chad]

Visibly shaken from witnessing Kara get shot into pieces and her body left draped over the ledge like a rag doll riddled with bullet holes that spouted blood like a fountain. Just shook her head no in a near catatonic state, truly this was a dire situation indeed. The whole thing went tits up from the jump all because one text message at the worst possible time. As reached over to put his hand on her shoulder and tell her that they got to keep moving, hoping to just move on and get this nightmare over with. It was then that the door to the door began to open behind them. The drone having traced the door the Kara had hacked was now shining its light upon them.

Camila turned her head to look back and it was then she was hacked by an Arasaka netrunner using the local network to infect Camila with cyber psychosis. Her body began to shake and her arms seemed to move on her own. A feeling of dread mixed with determination filled Mercy's stomach and heart. all those victims of cyber psychosis he had treated were not just diseased chrome addicts who made gonks of themselves by chippin too hard, but another means of control from these corporations. Mercy would seeth in anger if he didn't have to start running for his life from the swarm of bullets heading his way from The drone and her machine gun arm. The bullets ricocheting off the metal walls of the duct making them wiz by him just as he thought he had escaped them.

frantically he looked for something, anything to get him out of there, thinking of anything he could do to escape. Taking a stand wont work, even as a last resort, what is a simple shot gun going to doing against a woman who's half pirate and half terminator. Still where can he go there has to be some way to go but everything he sees is a dead end and he's almost rand half way around the building trying to escape. All the while he could hear her grunting and groaning in agony as he body slowly stalks the metal corridors, her metal arms scratching and banging on the metal walls as she shambles closer and closer. but the sounds only mask the faint hum of the drone as it comes even closer. What could be done, soon the drone will be on him?

Mercy had to take a stand now or find somewhere to hide it seemed like he was at the end of his rope and soon the drone will be on him and Camila is not too far behind it. Perhaps he could trap the drone somehow and possibly damage its visual sensor?

[DrMender]

Mercy frowned at the sound of the Arasaka Drone or the sound of the terminator pirate infected by the cyber psychosis, which told him that his hacker friend might no longer be in the system. He mentally shouted, “Bloody fucking hell!” as he searched through the metal hidden labor corridor with its eerie red-light and watched the shadowy figures inch closer to his location. 
 

He gripped the side of his head trying to wrack his brain for a solution before his green eyes sparkled at the sight of a metal door behind him labeled “lab”. He quickly dashed over to the door silently praying for the door to be open as he braced himself to shoulder check the door hoping for a miracle or that his friend might still be in the system to unlock or open the door for him.

[Cash Money Chad]

He gave one shoulder but to the door but it was locked tight as he went to make another shoulder butt a bullet streaked by right in front of his head. His eyes widened and he turned his head to find a flaming drone barreling towards him and slamming right into his chest and knocking the wind out of him. Mercy was breathing heavy laid out on the floor as Camila approached gun arm out stretched he head twitching, eyes wandering in a bewildered haze as If she had no idea where she was. Her outstretched arm was now twitching and firing around the tunnel at unseen foes. It was so loud he couldn't hear him self think.

But then she just walked by more preoccupied with killing her hallucinations more than anything. Leaving Mercy with only the faint confused whispers of " what's happening? where am I?"faintly echoing in the tunnel. Mercy let out a faint sigh savoring whatever luck he could get in this shit storm. However once he got up he saw that the door was sealed shut with a hologram that said warning contamination. Yet another dead end just when things were looking up. He sat dejected against the wall thinking that at any moment he was gonna get found and executed by Arasaka or worse, used as a lab rat by Biotechnica. He took deep breaths thinking that he should turn back, but he cant leave Camila like this. Then again he considered leaving and coming back with help like BTB or Cipher. Just as he was giving up a message popped up on his Agent...Cipher: "can't talk go here." And on Mercy's phone was a map and a path leading to the elevators and more importantly it shows that one elevator leads past the basement and into what has to be secret sub labs.

[DrMender]

Having failed at opening the door marked with contamination and the blazing fire of the drone along with the chrome dome having gotten closure, Mercy gritted his teeth in pain from the drone barreling into his chest. The silent buzzing of his agent going off giving a dull green flash of the message with a map, the good doctor would smile faintly diving past the two seemingly distracted oppositions in his way  since he could comeback to save Camilla or recover Kara’s body without help and made a mental note to give Cipher a free tune-up. 

Silently putting his phone in his pocket, he would take off down the hallway following the pre-mapped instructions to the designated elevator, while quietly making his way to the destination intent on grabbing what he could from the secret lab and fleeing the building.

 

[Cash Money Chad]

Mercy made his way down the maintence tunnels when he spotted the elevator shaft. He checked the map and saw that that was it. He opened the door leading to it and saw the long drop into darkness. It was like a hole leading into hell but no screams or fire just silent darkness foreboding of the horror to come.

He thought about waiting for an elevator to cone by so he can jump on it and catch a lift. But in the distance he heard Saka troops moblizing. He had to go now... But suddenly shots had rang out..they found Camila..screaming echoed through the tunnel.. Once the muffled screams of men and women died out all that was left was this gargled scream for "Merrrcyyy..Mercyy" the final Saka soilders seemed taken aback by it until they caught bullets in the visor of their helmets. Their bodies dropping to the floor, skull, brains, blood and broken glass oozing from the smoking bullets holes.

"Meerrrcyyyy Mmeerrrrcyyy" echoed through the tunnel as he rushed over to see her. She was doubled over having caught bullet wounds in her stomach and shoulder. She was bleeding out and he had to act fast.

[DrMender]

Hearing the strangled cries and gunfire that traveled from behind him back down the hallway brought a frown to his face as he took one last look down the elevator shaft before racing back over to a lucid Camila.
 

At the growing pool of blood that was growing underneath her, he quickly digs into his med-pack and curses out loudly, “Fuck!” quickly beginning to pack the shoulder wound with gauze to focus on the stomach wound. With practiced ease, he began to suture the wound closed and remove any bullets or fragments. Once finished, he would move onto the other wound quietly muttering out calmly, “Just hold on almost done” as he gave her a mild local pain med to help with any discomfort from his med-kit.

After finishing closing up the wounds and applying a local disinfectant, he wrapped the wounds in gauze and bandages. He proceed to gentle pick her up as he carried her over to the elevator shaft muttering quietly, “Got to get down to that lab and then out of here quickly” as he called for the elevator.

Camila looked wide eyed and mouth gaped that one of these damn squiggles would dare touch her. She was about to lift het gun but then the squiggle formed Mercy's shape.Then she vividly saw Mercy explode with bullet holes and blood mist just as Kara had, even seeing that it was Mercy who had been gunned down and her escaping into the tunnel with Kara and even having to console her before they moved deeper into the tunnel. then a quick flash of reality to him patching her up, but she seemed different not her usually pitch black quirky self that was until she looked at her hands and started playing with the blood because it didnt look or smell like blood." Relax, I've held on through worse." She said looking at her arm.."So what happened?" 

She asked looking over at the corpses of Saka agents before they turned into dancing neon squiggles, they looked like sombody slid a vibrator into a rainbow. "I'm not coherent."  She said in response to him. The pain killer was helping with the shakes and the pain but she slipping back into full psychosis.

[DrMender]

Standing before the elevator shaft, connected by the maintenance tunnel, a red light flashed behind them. He cursed quietly to himself hearing Camila’s words asking what happened. He sighed softly and responded, “you took out the saka drone and goons that were after us” as he glances down at her in concern. 
 

He motions with his head to the dark elevator shaft, “Not sure how long you can stay with me after the saka techies messed with her chrome but my contact had to dip out but gave us a map to this elevator shaft and the lab we need is at the bottom. They also include a pending route out of here.” He continues by saying, “Fucking BTB is probably gonna screw us over since Arasaka knows about us being in here but that plant can be leverage” as he injects her with one more dose of a pain killer saying, “this is the last of the pain killer I can safely give you with it harming you or having to knock you out….” As he sets her down by the wall to the left of the open elevator shaft.

"I remember seeing the bodies and Kara being killed, but not much after that. Everything looks like a kindergardener drawing a rave in my head." Camila looked up at him with a side smile and a shrug as if to say it is what it is. "I wouldn't worry about BTB. He would pay us double just to never show our faces again. Last thing he would want is us leading Saka to his door step." Mentally she was barely there though the pain was gon the twitching and psychosis was still there. "How long do I got until it wears off doc?"

She said pealing her self off the wall and looking down into the darkness. In her mind it was like she was staring into the abyss and it was stareing back into her. Calmly she secured her grappling line." Hold onto me..if I slip into another episode you will have to make sure we get down there." She said having him hold onto her and repeling down the shaft.

 

[DrMender]

He shook his head at the mention of Kara and states quietly, “Considering we lost one person and should hopefully have this plant… I might agree” as he watches her pull out the grappling hook. He rubs the back of his neck and clicks his teeth soft replying,” yeah based on that statement, I’d say you got hit with a dose of cyber-psychosis from a hacker and depending on how your body handles the three doses at minimum about a half hour to hour.” He grimly nods as he grabs onto Camila watching how she uses the grappling hooking for the descent down the shaft.
