"Ok"

"Claire you're sobbing. Oh baby it's ok." Theres not much I can to for her but hopefully just being here for her will help.

"Thank you Marie"

"You're welcome. See Claire everything's ok. I'm here for you. And right now that's all that counts"

"Find a way out of here. Please, Marie"

"I'm working on it. Well I was and I found nothing. I'll try some more now. But only if you're ok and get off me"

"Right ok. I'm not ok but I'll go sit in the corner"

"Sit in the middle it will help. We will be out soon. I'll make sure of that."

"Thank you" I have to get her out of this cage. And us out if this cave. I just wish I knew how.

"Who's there" a very manly and mysterious voice was above us
