Split second save

-Dalen Capital, Lower Quarter. Night, 2 DSTR-

Lafayette was confused at what was happening. The walls were like fog moving. But before he could get any idea of what this place was he heard the floor click. Not like a creek of a board, but like a crossbow knocking. "Wha..." before he could speak Kalena dropped through the floor. Lafayette dove his finger tips just missing grabbing her.

Panicked Kalena begged for rope. One of the few things that he didn't have in his pouches. If only he had his trunk. "Merde!" he shouted, quickly stripping of his belt(s) they were a single long strip of leather with pouches. He lowered the belt into the pit. "It's strong enough just grab on." he told her as he wrapped the other end tight around his hand and wrist to brace himself and have a grip that would not loosen.

Once she had a grip on the belt Lafayette started to pull her up. His throat letting out a groan. She wasn't to heavy but his shoulder wasn't having it. He gritted his teeth and started to pull hard. Lowering to his knees as she got closer to the lip of the trap door reaching out to pull her up with his hand. Pulling hard enough he ended up on his back and her on her stomach at his side.

"That was to close." Lafayette said huffing out the words, "This is not going to be easy." he said standing and taking a touch off the wall. "Kalena, their is a door in the pit." he said, his usual tone of speaking replaced with one of equal parts curiosity and worry for getting out of here by what ever means necessary.
