Ruby's P.O.V~

Gareth's eyes fill with genuine fear as more shots go off, this time sounding much closer.

"I'm going... but you're not." He snarls.

He turns to the door and leaves, clicking it shut behind him.

I push my legs down and stand up, using sheer force I jump up into the air and land hard on the chair.

It breaks, leaving only the back tied to my upper arms and mid section.

Brilliant.

I walk over to Gareth's desk and find a pen knife to cut myself free with.

I use my lower right arm to cut free my left, as I can't reach low enough on my right.

As the pen cuts madly I feel it dig into my skin occasionally, causing me to wince.

The rope falls as I cut the last of the rope and I feel it swing towards my left arm before unravelling and falling to the ground.

If Gareth had been here it would have been far to big an effort to escape.

I pick up a chair leg and walk backover to Gareth's desk and grab a roll of duct tape.

I wrap the tape around the leg and the pen knife to create a long shank.

Perfect.

Now to find my baby.
