(Liliana's POV)

"I'll keep my mouth shut; I swear. If I'm not a Rainbow Friend, I will stay silent about this. okay!?" I pleaded.

"Good, then I won't tell them either. Let's not raise more suspicion than they already have, Liliana." Riley stated, looking at the room where the monitors were, looking over the cameras. "If I don't come back out in one minute, run."

I nodded, watching Riley step into the camera room and shut the door behind them. I stood there, hiding in the locker nearby as I saw Blue walk past me.

Please don't notice me... please don't notice me-

I heard the door to the camera room creak open, taking that as not a good sign, I stepped out of the locker and ran, only hoping I could escape from them. I got to the party room and eventually ran outside, away from the play place.

I turned to face Blue as I heard the door creak open. I heard Liliana just outside the room, her faint footsteps sounding against the harsh concrete that was the ground in this place for some odd reason. I decided to distract Blue in the meanwhile.

"What did you need, Blue?" I asked Blue, casting a cold glare as I spoke with slight annoyance.

"Red has a list of people that arrive at this place, is there anyone else we missed?" Blue asked.

I thought about it for a moment, knowing I could not reveal that Liliana was the one they were searching for, but if I was going to say her name, then I'll just say that someone caught her...

"No, not in particular. I think Purple got to Liliana already."

"Thank you." Blue nodded as he left.

As the door shut, I sighed in relief. I glanced over at the monitors, as I witnessed the screens turn to static.

"I wish I could go with you, if you even escaped..." I muttered, as I heard Red open the door.

I saw that Red had a syringe in his hand, one that was filled with a rose-pink color.

I'm not coming home, I'm sorry...

(Liliana's POV)

As I reached the outdoors, moving away from the place that was somewhat connected to Odd World, I took a breather. I embraced the warm moonlight as a soft breeze--along with the stars above--graced the night sky. Thinking back at what happened, I felt bad for those who hadn't lived to escape.

I'm the only survivor of the field trip..? If Red doesn't know I'm even here, then I may be safe to go, so long as I'm not spotted, but why did this happen?

With a new plan, loneliness, and guilt, I glared away from the building and left for good.

Started with Astrid and the rest of us, ended with only me.
