"Simply put, yes. Your most likely chance of dying is to stay here, whether I'm here or not. The safest, but also most likely to get you sick or injured rather than killed, is coming with me." Knight says quickly. "Me personally, I would take the chance to not die. Getting sick or injured is curable, death is not, and I should know: I've dished out a lot of it."
Serena eyes him warily. “And why should I trust a random stranger? It usually never ends well…” she narrows her eyes. “How do I know you aren’t trying to lead me into some sort of trap?”

"With the ammount of money I just slapped down on the counter, the barcode on my cheek, the sounds of the jets and helicoptors, you'd think that would be a clear enough sign that I'm not lying." Knight says, as the sounds of more aircraft and even some land vehicles can be heard. He shakes his head.
"Actually, you no longer have a choice. Sorry in advance." he says. He hops the counter and tosses the woman over his shoulder like a stack of bricks, not bothering with opening the door correctly, simply walking through it Terminator style. He launches into a dead sprint which quickly makes the noises of the air and land vehicles fade.
(Oop- snatched-)
Serena yelps. “Hey— let me go-!” She yells, struggling against his grip. “Where are you taking me-?!”

(lol yup-)
"Away from certain death." Knight answers gruffly.
About an hour later, he slows to a stop and sets Serena down.
Serena backs away from him and glares at him. “What the hell?”

"I could run you back there and let them shoot you if you want." Knight shrugs. "Or if you really want to die that bad I could shoot you here and now."
Serena suddenly looks terrified. “Wait- no, that’s- that’s not what I meant-“

"Then what's the point of complaining?" Knight asks.
“Usually, people don’t like randomly being picked up and hauled off to who knows where,” Serena grumbles.

"Technically, you know better than I do. After all, you have to get to work, meaning you can't come from the direction of the base, as all of those roads are owned by HDZ Corp. So you have to come from this way." Knight deduces.
(processing what do these words mean im stupid and slightly illiterate)

(oop ;-; he means she would know better than he does where they currently are lol)
(Ohhhh yeah I’m just illiterate ok)
Serena crosses her arms and sighs. “I guess you make a decent point there.” She looks around a bit, and she seems slightly paranoid.

Knight nods. "So- for now, you lead the way. Starting tomorrow, we'll be travelling at night, not day. It's safer for you."
