A/N: For P100 prompt 695: Inspiration. Part 30 of my Ice Age drabble series and follows Escape?



I gripped onto Helen tightly, having to trust she knew where she was going… and for all I distrusted her, I knew Helen always had a way out, an escape route planned.

As I felt my lungs burn with every breath and knew we were running out of time, I spotted something and paused. Digging my heels in when Helen tugged me forwards.

There!

A flicker of light.

Of hope.

We staggered through and I collapsed to my knees, coughing and gasping as I gulped in lungfuls of crisp, clean air. I blinked blurry eyes before glancing around… Oh fuck!

I hadn't a clue what he'd seen at the end (just hoped it made sense with the next prompt).

I think Lester has little expectation things will be OK at the moment, after all, he's with Helen ;)

Thanks for reading.

I had no idea when I wrote it, just hoped the next prompt was useful in continuing it.

Poor Lester can't *eyes prompts*

Thanks for reading.
