You retrieve the ladder from the hole that leads down into the cave and place it inside the elevator shaft. You tell the prisoner to get ready to follow you as soon as you climb out into the garage. Just as you make it to the top of the ladder and are about to climb out, the doctor starts to walk to the cars door and sees you. Without hesitation, he starts running twords the back left hand corner of the garage. You reach out with the crowbar and hook his left foot causing him to fall to the ground. You yell down to the prisoner that he's spotted you and is trying to get away. As you finish climbing out of the elevator, he gets back on his feet and scrambles to a door that you could'nt see before. You are now just several feet behind him as he pushes the door open to make his last ditch effort to get away. He throws the door closed just as you are in the doorway and it strikes you square in the face. For a brief moment you see stars as you reach up to your face with your hands. You feel something wet on your fingers and soon relize that your nose is bleeding. It startles you when the prisoner touches your back and asks you if you're alright. "The bastard hit me with the door", you yell out. The prisoner quickly pushes you to the side, opens the door and takes a few steps outside. He looks around and sees no sign of the doctor but, he couldn't have gone too far. You meet him outside and begin your search. (new drawing to follow to aid you in your search)
The left table (with one leg showing) has nothing on it. The fender might look like it's on it but is behind it. The Table itself would be close to the hight you would need but not close enough. HINT-There are three other drawings that have the answer that you seek.
That's a fender behind the table. That would be too unstable to use to climb up. You're almost there though.
Damn! You forgot the slingshot in the tunnel. You must have put it down when you were breaking through the door and didn't pick it up again. You could send the prisoner back but, you don't have to go that far to get what you need.....hint hint.
Sorry, the cabinet is against the wall and butted up to the elevators outside wall also. Keep thinking.
It might not be a good idea to lift that heavy rear and carry it over to the door. That would take a lot of time and effort. Plus, the both of you would have your hands full (and have to leave your weapons behind) and the doctor could knock the both of you up side your head with a heavy object. There is a way to sneek up on him without him seeing you but that would take a lot of thought. Can you figure out how to do that or should you just try and rush him before he has time to get that car started and and get away?
You shine your flashlight down into the hole and motion for the prisoner to come up the ladder. Once upstairs you ask him how the other prisoner is doing. He tells you that he's still not able to move and that they must continue without him. Now you give him the crowbar and tell him to go check out the cabinet to see if the doctors hiding inside. He creeps up to it and looks inside, then turns around and gives you the all clear. Walking over to the base of the stairs, you both know that the doctor must have gone up the steps. With the axe handle in your hand, you both start to climb up the steps following behind the prisoner. It's then that you hear a noise coming from the open doorway at the top. The both of you are on edge now as you reach the last step. The prisoner slowly peeks out of the doorway and sees the doctor over in the far corner. He whispers to you that he sees him and that he's about 30 feet away. From what he could see, there's an overhead garage door in back of him but it's closed. The both of you might be able to rush him before he gets a chance to open the door and run away. Is that what you want to do? Of would you like to try something else?
You pop your head out and take a look around.It looks like some type of basement with assorted car parts on the floor and shelves. There's a stairway at the far end that leads upstairs and an old cargo elevator to your right. There's no sign of the doctor but you can see light filtering through the doorway that leads upstairs. What are you going to do now?
PS. I really wanted to add more car parts but time was running short so pretend that the whole basement is full of parts. This will come in play at the end of the story.
