Chapter 6 - Bajo de Espíritu

"How long are they gonna keep us in this fucking room!?" My words pierced deaf ears. I couldn't muster the energy to put action behind the words. 

I looked over at Czar. His chest was slowly moving up and down. I crawled over to him. The floor was dirty, covered in blood, shit and piss. They only cleaned it once in what seemed like a year. "Czar."

He moaned. He was getting weaker. I touched his skin and it felt hot. He never feels hot. His smell was fading. 

"We still have a chance to get out of here!" I can definitely get us out, but I need him to be able to move without me. 

He chuckled. "Lina, we both know how you can get out. Just leave me here. You need to leave me. The drug doesn't seem to affect you as much anymore. Kit…"

I looked around our prison. We hadn't seen daylight in years. The gray hairs we sprouted told us that. It just showed me how weak Czar was becoming. I stared at the door. The room was small and barely enough space to move around.

 "I think it's time for both of us to escape." I don't think me getting my strength back was an accident. There was a being in this building without a scent. We needed to go. 

Czar looked at me. "You need to leave me. Just save yourself and get to Kit."

"Yeah. We are not dying in this prison. We'll have to move quickly."
