Ryan's voice was laced with concern as he spoke up, his eyes darting around the dimly lit room. "Man, they're gonna keep us here. That long baerded , man, kept looking at Gabe in a weird way. It's not good."
Alex's voice echoed Ryan's concerns, his tone laced with unease. "Yeah, I also think so. Where the hell have we reached? Is it some underground mafia?"
Gabe listened to his friends' worried whispers, his eyes cast downward in a mixture of guilt and worry.
Alex turned to Gabe, his voice softening. "Gabe, won't you say something?"
Gabe's response was laced with self-doubt. "Oh man... what do we do... it's all my fault. I took you two with me."
Ryan's attempt to lighten the mood fell flat, but he tried anyway, chuckling. "Is that why you're sad? Dude, you know you won't even last two days in here without us."
Gabe's expression remained somber, his eyes fixed on the ground, while Ryan's words hung in the air, a mix of humor and truth.
Alex's chuckle turned into a grin as he teased Gabe. "Yeah, man, you need us. Don't you remember when you confronted that bully Peterson in middle school? You would have been beaten into red and black if we guys didn't throw our ice cream in his face."
Ryan jumped in, adding his own anecdote. "You, dude, without us, you would have been dead on seeing that robot out of fright."
Gabe couldn't help but chuckle at his friends' jokes, a hint of embarrassment creeping into his cheeks. "Yeah, oh, I saw who was about to lose consciousness on being questioned."
The tension in the room momentarily dissipated as the three friends shared a laugh, reminiscing about their past adventures and mishaps.
Alex's expression turned serious, his voice low and urgent. "Dude, what we need is a plan. It's been almost three days, I guess. But these guys show no intent of letting us out."
Ryan nodded in agreement, his eyes locked on Gabe's. "And they repeatedly question you, my Gabe."
Gabe's thoughts echoed Ryan's words. He had been questioned over thirteen times in the past three days, and still, he hadn't revealed the robot detail. The interrogators seemed to sense that he was hiding something, and their persistence was starting to wear him down.
The atmosphere in the room felt oppressive, the air thick with the weight of their confinement. It was clear that their captors had no intention of letting them go.
Ryan's voice broke the silence, his tone resolute. "Now what we need is a plan to break out, or the intent to stay in this tunnel for a lifetime."
