Hurry. Grab that walkie. We have to get out of here.

Stay quiet. They're just kids. We don't want to draw too much attention. The Old Watch is still tracking us. I saw Prioress with them.

Let go.

HECK
We don't want to hurt you.

I've got it.

Head to the Lifeboat. Ablution is coming.

They're too close. I can't do it.

We can't help them.

We're going to get you patched up.

This will pass. Just let the bugs do their work.

It's okay. We're just kids like you. We're teenagers. Okay?
