A voice pierces the dark -- not belonging to the young man, but a passerby, attracted by the swearing and the gunshots. (Why they didn't do the standard and run away is unknown -- perhaps they fancied themselves a hero.) "Hey. HEY."

The voice, unexpected, distracts Lapis just long enough. Eda will be able to expand her bonds just enough to slip through.

She'll only have a moment or two, so she may want to use it wisely.
