(:O oh no- Also, Imma say they already date in this, a'ight?) Ellie searched high and low for her lost girlfriend, panic filling her thoughts.

Henry looks at Ellie. Henry: "Hey, we'll find her, ok?"

(kk) Ellie's dagger like eyes show fear for once, Henry surprised. Ellie continued searching every room, knocking out every Toppat she sees.

Ellie was off course the cause of that, soo reaching the cells, yelling "ALICE!!! ARE YOU HERE?!"

Ellie looked through each cell, finally finding her lover. "Alice! You're ok!"

Ellie opens the door (somehow?), and immediately kissed her girlfriend. "Of course I am!"

(playing bloons-) "How did you get in here?"

"Well, I'm never gonna let that happen again~"

Ellie hugged Alice tight, making sure not to crush her.

"Now lets get you off of this ship."

Ellie followed the same path she took to get in, ending up in the records room.

"Pressure point."

"Right on the elbow. Knocks em out everytime!" Ellie waited for Charles's helicopter to fly by.

Ellie waits... And waits... And waits. "Where's Charles?"

(Oh, ok) "Alright." She turns on her com link. "Hey Charles? You there?" "𝘊𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦... 𝘊𝘭𝘢𝘯 𝘧𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥... 𝘙𝘦𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨..." His voice was very staticy, cutting off quickly. "I think hey in trouble..."

(sure!) "He said they were retreating, which means they're going back to the base. We're gonna have to find our own way off..."

(oof-) "That's shitty..."

"I can always hijack a Toppat vehicle."

Ellie led Alice through the Toppat hallways, grabbing a Tophat for her and Alice so they blend in.

"True~" Ellie was wearing a pink Tophat with a purple flower (convenience? I think not-)

"Just randomly picked it up. Didn't even see a Toppat wearing it. May keep it just in case I need to infiltrate a Toppat meeting."

"Yep!"

"Now, let's find a way to Escape the Airship!"

"Did I say something wrong?"

"Oh well then." (I MEANT TO DO THAT MWEHEHEHEHEH)

Ellie walked casually through the halls, muttering 'Thank You' to each Toppat they come across.

(I MEANT 'HELLO THERE'-)

One Toppat in a cheese Hat notices them. "Oi! I've never seen you two aroun' Who are ya?"

Cheese Hat: "I meant yer names." Ellie: "I'm... Uh... Lillie! And this is... Ally!" (Reference to my IRL gf, Lillie-)

Cheese Hat: "Well it's nice to meet you two, hope I can see you again soon!" Another Toppat wear a blue, pointy hat walked on, waving at Cheese Hat. Pointy Blue Hat: "Fredrick, c'mon! I don't have all day, you know."

"You know them?" Ellie whispers to Alice.

"Oh..." Ellie led them out of the room while Fredrick and Pointy Blue Hat were distracted. (she calls them code names till she knows their real names-)

"Guess striking up some friendly convo doesn't hurt."

Ellie continued to walk through the hallways, searching for the escape pods.

"I don't know, that's why I'm looking for them."

"Oh- I'm big dumb-" Ellie smacks herself on the forehead.

"I hadn't realized you were talking to yourself! That qualifies me as dumb!"

"Yes, it does." Ellie kept searching, sometimes asking Toppats for directions. They came across a guy in a black tophat with flames painted on it, and an oversized hoodie. Ellie: "Hey, do you know where the escape pods are?" Flame hoodie: "Yea', bu' why should I tell ya wher'e they ar'e?"

(he's my OC, Hotshot Kai :3) Ellie: "Uhmmmm, we're gonna give them some repairs?" Flame Hoodie: "... Alri', bu' only cau:see they need a tune-up."

(MY LORD-) Flame Hoodie gave them directions to the escape pods, also telling them how they function so they don't accidentally send the pod flying to the ground below.

(Uhmmmm, QUITE-) Ellie watched as Flame Hoodie left the room, then quickly got to setting coordinates and all that jazz.

"Learned how to set an auto-pilot from my friend Charles."

Ellie soon had the coordinates in, passing the launch button.

"Yeah, I know..." The pod launches, gliding silently through the air towards a nearby government base.

(Aight, and Imma say Dave got rescued by Henry in this- Henry works for the government- heh, EtC is rubbing on me-) "When we get there, you may see either familiar or unfamiliar people, but don't be scared."

"Really?"

"Huh, never knew that."

They soon land pretty much in the middle of the base. As they stepped out, Ellie noticed there was guns pointed at them. She quickly flung off her Tophat, telling the others "Lower your weapons..."

Charles noticed them. Charles: "Guys, they're good, Ellie's a friend of mine and that's the BBC reporter."

(:O) Charles: "Hey Alice!" Ellie: "Thank the lord's Charles was here-"

Charles pushed through the crowd, reaching Alice and Ellie Charles: "Hey Alice! Hey Ellie! Why were you guys wearing tophats?" Ellie glares at Charles.

Charles: "Makes sense." Ellie: "I found a Tophat I'm probably gonna use each time we infiltrate a Toppat meeting."

Ellie: "The pink one with the purple flower."

Charles: "It suits you!" Henry walked over,waving at them all. Yet, when he sees that one Tophat, he starts to panic.

Ellie: "Is something wrong?" Henry: 'That top hat... Where...?' Henry's signing was shaky (I believe he's mute- so yeah)

Ellie: "Found it randomly, don't know how." The Tophat glitched a tiny bit-
