Gage blinked. He was twitterpated with her? Where was the dreamer? The one he had flown in the storm with? He had seen her like this before, and he knew what might happen if she came face-to-face with the man. He glanced down. The guard's body had a key dangling from his belt. He swallowed hard as the doors began to clatter shut again.
In an instant, he lunged. He yanked once on the keyring, and it broke away. He shoved it into the keyhole outside the door, and turned it back and forth. The door kept clattering. When he heard a small click. His eyes met Misty's just as he yanked the key out and pulled himself into the elevator. The iron bars clicked shut between them.
"I'm sorry, but this is my fight." He said, the gate's shadows falling across his face. Eyes roaming from Misty, to Tayn, to Rex. "Stay safe." Then the second door closed, and started down.
"Are you a freaking idiot?!? You'll get yourself killed, Gage! Think about this for a second!" Rex yelled at Gage.
