"Chris...baby I think I found something!" Maleah called over her shoulder, the two of them scrambling for any point of entry that could be used as an exit way. Snapping his neck in her direction, Chris didn't hesitate to rush over, the mention of her potentially finding a point sparking his attention.

"The hell is that..." He mumbled, furrowing his eyebrows at the weird looking space. He tried to see what it was she was looking at, coming up short until his eyes landed on the little puzzle like space. Crouching down, he looked closer to see that the missing piece was the point of exit way, except that piece was missing. Chris not knowing if it would even be possible for them to find it in time considering the area they were in was huge, and he could hear the people above them walking around in what sounded like a frantic manner.

"How much time do we have left?" Maleah asked, trying her hardest to stay calm although she could feel herself on the verge of a breakdown. She was terrified to say the least, the thought of having to go through so much already just to possibly die in this building was scary. She could see that Chris wasn't nervous which did settle her a little bit, but not a lot considering she was sure he was only like that because he was trained to be that way.

Glancing down at his watch, Chris chose to not even respond to her, watching the time tick a lot faster than he anticipated. Having less than a minute, he looked over to see if there was anything in his exact reach. Seeing a magnet, he quickly reached over to grab it, his other hand rubbing against the other piece of metal that he seen in the puzzle in hopes that it was also a magnet.

"As soon as I open this shit..." Chris started out, rubbing the other end of the pure magnet quickly, "you push the door open and run as fast as you can, I'm right behind you." He spoke while continuing on with the rubbing until glancing down to see 10 seconds left of the time they had.

Sighing, he said a silent quick prayer that this would work, before connecting the two metal points. He glanced down at the watch repeatedly, staring at the time that ticked away second after second.

On the third second, a small click was heard. Not hesitating to do as he said, Maleah quickly pushed the door open before starting on running as fast as she could. Her adrenaline ran while her heart raced in her chest, a mixture of nervousness and the fact that she was on the verge of a panic attack washing over her at the sound of the building blowing up behind her, the force sending her straight to the ground where she laid covering her head.
