The branches deflected Jinx's stab, and he kept back, so her deflection didn't accidentally cut him -- and he narrowed his eyes, looked to the ground, the ceiling. Nothing. Every side locked into place, as if they had always been there, above their heads, roots, floor? Roots. If the roots were strong enough to deflect the knife, there was likely only one thing that might get them out.
Silco's eye narrowed, as he tried to take stock. It's the only reason why he noticed the roots...still moving? Almost imperceptible in the way they changed, started to make a face in the roots, faint though it was. He sneered, but put a hand to Jinx's shoulder, to indicate the face. ]

[ Maybe if they killed it, they could get out of here? She had the knife. ]
