It seemed that their captors wanted to give them *some* chance of escape. "Don't worry Claire, I'll get us out of this," Leon said in an unconvincing attempt to be reassuring, "If I could just get this blindfold off...""MMMPHH!" Claire cried out, her words muffled by the tape over her mouth. She frantically gestured at the scissors to her left, but she knew it was hopeless."I know Claire, but we have to keep calm right now and think of a way out, okay?" Leon insisted, interrupting Claire's muffled cries. Claire let out a resigned moan into her gag. This was going to take a while.
