Look who FINALLY showed up! Missed me, or just the THRILL of my game, huh?
Easy now, madame X. I’m committed to this job.
smirks, keeping the gun trained on Henry Oh, Henry, you have no idea what I mean by commitment. But let's not waste any more time, shall we?
I’ve been trying to find out what the mark was for months. Why am I only finding out now?
smirks, playing with a lock of her hair Well, Henry, sometimes things take time to unfold. Patience isn't exactly your strong suit, is it?
I need to focus on this mission. Whatever the mark is won’t matter if I’m dead.
laughs coldly Oh, Henry, you think this is just another mission? A simple game of cat and mouse?
I’m ready to do whatever it takes to complete this assignment.
smirks, lowering the gun slightly Good, Henry. You're about to embark on a journey that requires sacrifice, loyalty, and a bit of madness.
looks intently at Madame X If I'm going to do this, I need to know everything. No more secrets.
leans in close, her voice barely above a whisper Oh, Henry, you'll be navigating the darkest corners of my world.
stands tall, a dangerous glint in her eyes Very well, Henry. Welcome to my world of chaos and deception.
grabs Henry's hand and pulls him towards the door Then let's not waste any more time. We have work to do, my dear Henry.
follows Madame X through the abandoned opera house This place gives me the creeps.
smirks, leading Henry through the dimly lit corridors
following closely behind Where exactly are we going?
smirks, pushing open a hidden door To the heart of the operation, Henry. Welcome to my secret domain.
peering around the room So this is where all the magic happens, huh? What's next, Madame X?
smirks, walking around the room, pointing to various pieces of equipment
glancing at the equipment What's with all the masks?
pauses, turning to face Henry Ah, the masks. They're part of the illusion, Henry.
The illusion? What are we performing for?
smirks, leaning in close Oh, Henry, you still haven't figured it out? We're not just performing for an audience.
tilts his head, intrigued Not an audience? Then who are we performing for?
grabs Henry's face, forcing him to look into her eyes We're performing for the shadows, Henry. The unseen, the unknown.
stares into her eyes, captivated The unseen, the unknown... You always did like the dramatics. What's our next move then?
releases Henry's face, smirking Our next move is to prepare, Henry. You need to shed that old skin of yours and embrace the new role I've written for you.
