No Shadow...you don't get it. Caroline isn't giving up, she's doing the exact opposite. Do you honestly think she really wants to be here? No, she'd love to leave this place and have her life back again. But instead, she was choosing the more logical path. Even if she could escape, it wouldn't be worth endangering more people's lives.

"Haven't enough people died, Shadow?" Caroline started, her sharp eyes looking right through the hedgehog. "Killing her did not solve anything the first time and it will not solve anything this time. Besides...I do not want her dead. Spending all this time in her mind...I've come to pity her."
