Lucidstuck II

Alice: You could take shelter at Lucas' house, or via the realm gates at either no man's land or spiraling descent. Lucas' house would be the safest, but you should check with DT if there's enough time to reach it before you commit to that

Alice: DT, what the heck?
DT: What's wrong, Master?
Alice: Why are we suddenly dealing with this, didn't you know this was a thing that could happen?
Alice: If you warned me, I would have suggested we return since Lexii is hurt!
DT: I err....
DT: Well, I... Normally don't spout information until asked or it becomes relevant.
DT: This is not a slight against you! A-all Realm attendants are like this in some capacity.
Kalem: This is true. As guides we don't get ahead of ourselves.
Alice: Sounds stupid.
DT: B-but, no matter... We still must hurry to shelter.
Alice: Can we make it all the way back to Lucas' house?
DT: It'll be close but if we run into anything we're going to be caught.
Alice: .... And the big hole?
DT: Closer, But there are the effects to consider.
Alice: And the no man's land?
DT: Our best chance, only there is the crazy guy roaming about.
DT: When he realized that girl let us go, he knocked her teeth in. Blood all over the place.
Lexii: W-WHAT?!
DT: She's going to be coming after us if we see her again.
Lexii: We have to help her!
Lexii: Alice!
Alice: ....
Alice: She's not a priority right now, Lex.
Alice: This realm of mine has all sorts of cruel creatures doing cruel things to each other.
Alice: The black sun you called it, what exactly happens?
DT: Hunters will appear in the sky and start looking for anything walking about.
DT: If they catch you, they'll drain the life out of you until you die.
Alice: Those two probably have a way to hide from them.
Alice: If we go back we'll probably be able to look for the gate uninterrupted.
DT: That's a good point! The aggressor mentioned something about a "hole" they go to hide in.
Lexii: We should have enough time to look then!
Alice: Let's go back.

You dash as fast as you can through the barren field of no man's land until the land begins to dip. Darkness approaches.

Anerak: Quit whining, you act like I tried to kill you or something.
Anerak: Geez, do you want to whine to the hunters? I'm sure they'd love to hear it.
Gorgiana: N-no...
Anerak: Good, now keep it down. I'm going to make sure the coast is clear.
Alice: ...!
Alice: (Uhh... Shit.)
Alice: (I don't have time for guessing games! Aliens, what the heck is the numbers for this??)

Anerak is approaching and it's too late to flee. The gate is in front of you and you'll have a moment to open it. What's your next move??

A 2 digit code is required to unlock the gate, the next command with an attempt at the code will be taken, if incorrect Anerak will confront you.
