The woman pulled off the mask. "Probably not. I was referring to something much more simple; my rank, not my name." On her left cheek was a scar that almost looked like a vampire bite.

"A bite? I'm sorry but that doesn't help me much..."

Yazmin led him to a simmillar trap door to the one the other Guard showed Rick and Jared, and pushed it open, walking inside without so much as a backwards glance.

The tunnel ended with a wall in front of Rick and Jared. There didn't seem to be a door, and there wasn't a trap door above their heads or below their feet, either.
"I didn't mean for it to be, the mask got hot," the woman replied. "Around here, I'm known as Faith."

"I thought that guards were called by numbers...are you perhaps someone higher in the ranks?"

Maxwell follows by flying into the tunnel, then lands. He walks along side her.
“How many tunnels are there?” he asks calmly.

"I'm one of the few who have been here since the beginning. If something were to happen to both our leader and his second in command, I would take over. The chances of that happening, however, are unlikely. And even the most skilled Guard would have trouble getting anything past me."

"The way you make that sound is that assassination is the only way someone could get to the top...Is that true?"

"No. If the Guard believes one person would be better fitted, then that person will be placed at the top. In seven years, only one person has led us. However, assassination does seem like the easiest course, considering."

"Though they would be leading through fear... everyone would be able to tell...though with the guards from what I've seen they will obediently follow, who knows if that will stay if a new leader comes through using assassination."

"Dude, it's a dead end!" Jared called back. Rick joined him and found out his best freind was right. "Hey mind telling us how to get outta here?" Rick asked the Guard.
"A fair few, some more complicated than others. This is one of the simpler ones." Yazmin answered.

Faith smirked. "If you want to know the history of the Guard, that can be your first lesson. If not, however, I would like to get on with other topics."
"Move out of the way and I'll get us out," 3952 replied.

"Well you said my training starts immediately, I have no intention of changing the topic, shall we start?"

The two stepped aside.
"Alright, this is it," Yazmin said, coming to a dead end. "just give me one moment and I'll get us out.

3952 pressed certain points on the wall. And then it swung towards them, revealing a door. 3952 opened it to a basement. "Come on, then. Through the window. And do try to be quiet, I'm sure whoever is upstairs is sleeping."
Faith smiled. "In here, then." She opened a door to reveal a classroom-looking space with a few desks.
