Adrian and Ray glare down at their enemies from up the stairwell, the latter pulling off one of his leather shoes and chucking it at them.
He misses, and somehow, his motion causes the whole floor to hitch downward, buckling under their combined weight and the weakness of the building. From below, Keith and Evelyn roar with laughter before disappearing from sight.
"The stairwell isn't stable. We have to get down fast..." Adrian muttered as he wrapped an arm around Cassidy's waist to support her weight.
"Hang on, Cassidy. Please, manage for now."
"It's alright, Adrian. I got this. Just focus on what we're gonna do."
Ray takes over as Aira's protector for the time being. He hurriedly rushes them down the stairs, trying his best to keep his motions steady so as to not upset the stairwell further. It's their only chance of getting down safely.
"Why now...?" Cassidy asked aloud, hobbling after them while her husband kept her upright.
