Keep running trying to weave in-between buildings and alleys trying to put some distance in between myself and the trolls.
"I don't know where to go Lisa! Where in the world would we be safe from legit monsters. Oh dear.. this is insane."
Lisa sniffs on your shoulder before responding. "They know where I... we are. We have to hide... in somewhere where they can't find us. Under plain sight? Maybe... or Old Town. Yes, Old Town! I should have gone there in first place! It's... below. Deep down. And I can run now, you can put me down."
Sounds of chasing grow faint as you run into narrow alleys, too narrow for those big guys.
((Nah, just checking the space available...))
Signal to Lisa to wait while I go further down my side and get some other cover. Assuming he starts moving to the intersection, and then starts moving my way, Lisa can ambush him with her laser pistol. After all, he saw me but not her.
It is a decent plan. Let's hope it works.
You explain the idea to Lisa with sign language and run down into the tunnel a little making enough sound so the crazy janitor knows you are still alive and kicking. You hide behind one particular pile of crap and plywood and wait.
He doesn't come. Instead you hear again those same noises he made before when he moved stuff around in the tunnel. Guess he doesn't think you are important enough.
'kay, ill be one.
It has been a while since you last time saw someone as entertaining as this Dr. Von Glitzinger. The guy is totally crazy, he literally sees the world very differently, yet in same time manages to operate effectively within Real World ™. And pretty good hearted guy on top of it. And if that's not enough it seems he can hear you to some degree. It is first time you see someone with such ability after your death. Of course many people have claimed ability to communicate with ghosts, but you have proven them wrong posthumously. Granted, you are the only one who knows that since you haven't seen any other ghosts around nor have you talked with living ones.
Anyway, this guy ought to be interesting. The girl is interesting as well since her soul is stretched all over the place, or at least you think it is her soul. The whole thing is ready to snap back together if anchor points are poked hard enough. Or, once again, so you believe. You are by no means a professional about this, it simply appears to you this way.
Oh he moves. Waves goodbye at the kid. What? Is he ditching the kid after things get dangerous!? What a dick! Wait, no. He's just hiding little futher away. And the cloak guy waits few moments before going back to moving crap around. This time slower, rifle ready in hand. He moves last plywood panel resting against the wall to side and reveals a crappy dark tunnel hidden behind.
