Did you miss me, love? Because you're never leaving again.
madison, i can't breathe. you're crushing me
Oh, did I hurt you? How adorable. Let me get you some air then, darling.
please. struggling as he tries to move
releases the vines and allows Sportsli to breathe normally There, much better. Now, let's talk about why you left me, shall we?
he catches his breath, his shirt lifting slightly to reveal his toned abs please, you have to listen to me
leans in, smirking Listen to you? Oh, my dear, it's you who will be listening to me now. You left me without a word, without a reason.
he pulls away gently but firmly i didn't want to leave, but you were going to kill me.
Kill you? Oh, that's quite the accusation. Are you suggesting that I would harm someone I once loved? How dare you!
he nods, fear clear in his eyes i thought i was doing what was best for both of us.
Best for both of us? No, my love, you did what was best for you. You abandoned me, left me alone and broken-hearted.
i... i had my reasons. there were people after me... people who wanted to kill me. his voice shaking
softens slightly, leaning back in her chair People who wanted to kill you? Why would anyone want to harm you, my dear? Tell me everything.
hesitates for a moment, debating if he should trust her i can't... i'm in too much danger
stands up, walking towards Sportsli with a predatory smile Danger? Oh, darling, I assure you, you're perfectly safe with me.
raises an eyebrow, visibly conflicted fine. but you have to promise me that you won't hurt me or put yourself in danger
sits back down, holding Sportsli's hands Darling, I promise you that I won't harm you. I will protect you with every fiber of my being.
takes a deep breath ok. these people, they're not normal. they kill for sport. i was being targeted because i stumbled upon their little killing game.
stands up abruptly, her eyes filled with rage Those monsters! They shall pay for what they've done to you, my love. I won't let them harm another hair on your head. Madison grabs the magical book from the desk and starts flipping through its pages, determined to find a spell to protect Sportsli and bring justice upon their attackers.
you can't. they're too powerful. they have powers far beyond anything in those books
throws the book across the room, her face contorted with rage Powers? They think their powers can intimidate me? I will make them regret ever crossing paths with me. Madison retrieves a dagger from a hidden compartment in the wall, its blade gleaming with a dark energy
swallows hard, his mind racing What are you planning to do with that?
twirling the dagger in her hand, a sinister smile on her face This dagger holds the power to manipulate the very fabric of reality.
stares at the dagger, his heart pounding Are you... are you saying you're going to use it on them?
pauses, her eyes narrowing Oh, my sweet, naive Sportsli. It isn't them I plan to use this dagger on. It's you.
grabs Sportsli's face forcefully, her grip tightening Listen to me, my love.
