Victor did as Rose told him to do at the end of the previous chapter and attacked her. The guardians immediately flew up and grabbed him, not seeing Rose as a threat because she was "human". But then she attacked them. Rose knocked one of the guardians unconscious but was having trouble with the other one so she needed Lissa to compel him. He was strong, and it took a little bit longer to compel him than the other guard but eventually she did it. They got the guard to tell them where Victor's key was, which was in the unconscious guy's pocket. Rose searched him and found the key and then went to unlock Victor from his shackles, warning him not to cause a scene or start a fight or he'd be knocked out as fast as the other guy on the ground.
They then used the compelled guardian to find where the surveillance room was. They found out the Guardians name was Giovanni sand once to the surveillance room Rose and Giovanni ( under compulsion) attacked the two guardians who were on guard in there. The first guard went down easy. As the first one went down, the second one leaped for an alarm button but just missed it as Roe and Giovanni leaped towards him taking him down as well. After both of them were out, Lissa compelled Giovanni to disable all of the cameras and erase the last hour of footage.
After the work was done in the surveillance room Lissa instructed Giovanni to take them back to the wardens office where Thio and Eddie was. Once they entered the room Eddie realized it was time to go, so he leaped up towards Thio and put him in a choke hold, but before going down he let out a yelp. Two other guardians entered and another fight began. To make things even more difficult, as soon as one of the guardians were knocked out, Giovanni broke out of the compulsion and started fighting against Rose, and Eddie. Then to make matters worse, Giovanni ran towards a wall where another alarm button was and as he hit it a piercing wail filled the air. They quickly knocked Giovanni out and the four of them ran out of the room. The group ran towards the front doors only to realize they were locked from the inside. Eddie told them to wait as he ran back and grabbed one of the security cards the guardians had and sure enough it let them out. They made a dash for the rental car and all piled in as quickly as they could. Eddie stepped on the gas and headed for their last obstacle, the entrance gate. The guardian ran out of his post, but when he realized they weren't stopping he dodged out of the way. Eddie pushed down on the gas even harder then and blew through the wooden gate.
The prison then sent trucks after them. They came speeding down the street after them. Rose followed with the GPS telling Eddie where to turn, since they mapped out an escape route for afterwards. After a few sharp turns the road behind them was clear. Rose then turns around and explains to Victor in a harsh manor why they broke him out in the first place. It was to find his brother Robert Doru, and Victor was the only person who knew where he was. Robert Doru was the man who knew how to turn strigoi back into normal, living, vampires. With some hesitation, as Victor seemed to try to scheme in his mind how he could work this n him favor, he gave in and told them where they had to go : Las Vegas, then they were off.
