She raises an eyebrow at this, and then frowns heavily. "Those ungrateful little..." she stops herself, for whatever reason, and then turns and looks at the man. "Right, I'm going to honor my end of the deal, but no funny business, you understand? Keep yer hands in yer pockets or behind yer back or...somewhere that isn't me. Got it?"
She waits for an answer and then approaches the cell, putting her hands on her bars and trying to force her way through it the same way she did in her own cell.
When, after another flash of light, she finds herself on the inside, she takes a moment to adjust to her surroundings, and then reaches out to touch the big guy on the shoulder.
"Assuming I can get you out of here, of course..." She shrugs, and then proceeds to try and teleport herself back outside along with the man.

"Yeah, sure," he replies, not sounding terribly sincere.
As you will yourself out, and him as well, you do indeed both go. The flash of light surrounds you both, and suddenly, you're both outside the cell.
"Well, that's pretty handy," he admits. "Not a bad trick, kid. I'm outta here."
He starts wandering in the direction you were headed.

She shrugs at the guy as he wanders off, and, in thought, looks up at the ceiling, trying to estimate how high up it was.
"I wonder..." she thinks to herself, and then, being that she didn't know her own limits, thinks better of it, and jogs to catch up with the guy. "So...you know the way out of here then?" She asks as she falls in stride next to him.

"Yeah, I do," he replies, "but I dun't wanna be babysittin' no-.."
He stops talking as the two of you reach the end of the corridor. It looks like a battle took place here... guards covered in piles of mud, and more mud dripping down everywhere. It looks like a horror film in which the director used mud to represent blood.
"Whaddya think happened here?"

"The...Quadrel..." she says breathlessly as her eyes go wide. She ignores the man next to her after that as she checks each and every one of the bodies for anyone familiar. Failing to find anyone, she breathes a sigh of relief and looks around, specifically, for a window or door, or, knowing the Quadrel, a hole, she could use to get out.
"It was the Quadrel." she continues as she looks, realizing the guy was still there. "They attacked the place recently, but I don't know why or for what."

As you begin searching, a large clump of mud that was stuck to the ceiling falls on your head. You fall back in suprise. It got in your hair and eyes.
The man laughs, seeming to have completely forgotten, for the moment, the situation you're in.

"GWAAAAH! EWWW EWWW, GROSS!!!" she shrieks, flailing about helplessly for a moment at the gunk in her hair and her eyes in a stereotypically girly fashion before she wipes it out of her eyes and attempts to wipe it out of her hair with an enormous frown on her face. When she's done with that, she seems to realize the sudden panic attack she was in and calms down, blinking in momentary confusion.

Her reaction only fuels the man's laughter.
In the distance, you hear footsteps echoing, drawing closer. Probably about 5 sets of footsteps, though it's tough to tell with the echo.

The sound of footsteps snaps the girl out of her own embarassment as she shoots a glance down the way they were coming from, and then, being careful to watch for falling mud-clumps, continues her search for an exit.

"C'mon, let's get going..."
The footsteps are coming from one of the directions the mud heads... up some stairs. The big guy with you starts heading in the other direction of the mud trail.

Being that her search was unsuccessful, and that she really wanted to get out of the Labs, she continued to follow the big guy, on the lookout for any trouble.

The footsteps, luckily, end up trailing off into the distance.
You make it to a stairway, which the man with you heads up. Once you reach the top, there are more people.
None of the people up here seem to be guards. They're wearing white labcoats, and seem to be working on things. There are three of them in the first room you enter. They look hesitant, not sure what to do about your entrance.

The girl looks hesitant as well, and raises an eyebrow as she leans over to whisper at the big guy she was following.
"Uhm...are you sure this is the right way?"

"Yeah, we gotta get upstairs... this is the only way up."
He looks around at the guys in lab coats.
"How about if none of you guys call for help, and the two of us don't give you a reason to. That sound good?"
The guys in lab coats look at each-other, then slowly nod. The big guy looks back at you.
"We might need a less obvious way of getting through this floor... you got any other tricks you havn't told me about?"

She shrugs. "I, uhm, I don't know..." she sighs. "Apparently the Femer people were using me for some sort of experiment...they changed a lot..." she frowns for a moment, then shakes it off and forces a razor-sharp smile. "Guess we'll find out when we have to, eh?"
