I'm hiding.

It's a bloodbath. They're

shooting everyone. They're mad.

Where are you?

A group of us are

on the ground floor.

They attacked the restaurant.

Hello? Hello?

They're shooting everyone.

Stay hidden!

I'm in the bathroom.

They're searching the rooms.

Hide in a closet, ok!

Or run, I don't know!

Hello? Hello?

- Hello?

- Dad?

Your friend freaked me out.

He told me to leave

the bathroom.

I told you not to move.

I'm hiding in the closet

in my room.

Dad...

- What can you hear around?

- Hold on...

There's gunfire...

People screaming...

- Where are they?

- No idea. They can't be far.

I'll put your mum on.

- Mom?

- Seetheart?

- Mom?

- We are on our way.

We're coming to get you.

Be brave.

- Mom, what's going to happen?

- Keep your phone turned on. Ok?

- Mom. Mom. I'm scared.

- I put your father back one.

Dad, I'm really scared.

Don't be scared, sweetheart,

you'll be ok.

Hide in the bathroom.

It's safer.

Ok, ok. Get here fast.

- Are you here?

- Not yet.

I ache all over, I can't move...

We abandoned the car

to come on foot.

How many are they?

Maybe I could try to get out.

To go where?

They're taking hostages.

Don't move, ok!

Don't move.

Ok.

We'll get you out of there.

I'll call you.

- Yes?

- My battery's nearly dead.

Where's the charger?

On the hallway table.

I'll get it.

No, don't go!

I can't hear them anymore.

Stay there. It's too risky.

I need to be able to

talk to you.

- Louise!

- I'll be careful. I'm hanging up.

- What's that?

- They're trying to get in.

It's ok, they've left.

- Where are you?

- In your room.

Go back and hide.

- No.

I'm hanging up.

I'm getting the charger.

Louise!

Come on!

Yes, yes...

- Hello?

- Ok, I have the charger.

Stay put. We're not far.

What's taking so long?

Guns are going off everywhere.

You are my sunshine,

my only sunshine...

Who's singing?

Who's singing?

Everything is gonna be fine

sweetheart. Your gonna be okay.

Come on, come on.

Mom, what the hell are you doing?

You're singing me a lullaby

so I can fall asleep?

It was to calm you down,

sweetheart. Stay calm.

Well, its not calming me down

at all!

Put Dad back on.

We're nearly there.

Call Pierre back.

- You called him again?

- No.

I'll call him.

- Pierre?

- Hello?

It's Louise.

Did you leave your room

like I said?

Dad told me to stay put.

Still up there?

Yes. Where are you?

We're hiding in the basement.

Around ten of us.

We're going to try to get out.

Can I try to come down to you?

They have explosives.

They'll blow the place up.

Get out, ok.

But then? Pierre? Pierre?

Nearly there, sweetheart.

I talked to your friend.

He told me...
