He reached into his pocket and found a small weapon that he had hidden, a weapon given by Adam. With that weapon, Cody felt a renewed sense of hope. He aimed the weapon at The Gambler, who was still smiling cynically before him.

"What are you doing, Cody?" The Gambler asked mockingly.

Cody quickly ran towards Lilly and Emily, releasing them from their bindings.

"You're safe now," Cody said as he hugged them both tightly.

Lilly and Emily cried tears of joy, grateful that Cody had managed to save them.

"Thank you, Cody," Lilly whispered with a trembling voice.

"We need to get out of here quickly," Emily added urgently.

Cody nodded, and the three of them immediately ran out of the room, leaving The Gambler's helpless body lying on the floor. They had successfully escaped from that terrible game unharmed.
