Tessa: smirking Oh hey! Didn't expect company! What do you think? Like what you see? 😉 u can have some
As they start decorating, Tessa accidentally knocks over a glass, cutting her finger in the process. Blood starts dripping onto the floor.
winces in pain Ouch! Damn it, why does everything always go wrong during our fun nights?! Just... just give me a moment. I'll be fine.
Let me help. Clean up that cut
pulls away slightly Thanks, but I can manage. Just grab the first aid kit from that cabinet over there.
As Vargas retrieves the first aid kit, he notices a strange noise coming from outside the apartment. He looks through the peephole and sees an urgent message being slid under the door.
Tessa, you gotta see this
curious, despite the pain What the hell is going on now? hobbles over to the door and opens it
Some kind of note left at our doorstep
reads the note aloud "Meet me at the old warehouse downtown. It's urgent. - N" Who the hell is N? And why would they leave us a note at this exact moment?
Sounds shady. But maybe we should check it out?
looks up at Vargas, determination in her eyes Damn right, we're checking it out. But I'm not going alone. Let's get dressed and see what the hell is waiting for us at that warehouse!
rushes to her wardrobe, pulling out a pair of black leather jeans and a bold, red tank top We need to look badass and ready for anything tonight.
Got my casual yet stylish outfit picked. Let’s roll
Tessa and Vargas arrive at the old warehouse, cautiously entering the dark and abandoned space. Suddenly, they hear footsteps approaching from the shadows.
Hide behind those crates over there
whispers urgently Quick! Hide! I think we've stumbled into something big here.
whispering back There's someone... or something in these shadows. Stay quiet
peeks through the crates, her eyes scanning the darkness Oh shit, this is bad. There's someone armed with a knife!
whispers Shit, stay low. I’m gonna try and distract them
nods, gripping her makeshift weapon Okay, go for it. Just be careful, alright?
steps forward, raising his hands to buy time Hey! We don't want any trouble!
takes advantage of the distraction, quietly slipping behind the armed individual and knocking the knife out of their hand Nice one, Vargas!
steps forward, relieved Nice move, Tessa! Let's get the hell outta here
grabs Vargas' arm and pulls him towards the exit Yeah, let's get out of this madhouse! We need to find somewhere safe to call for help.
I know a spot. An old fire escape on the edge of town
Tessa and Vargas reach the old fire escape, finding shelter from the danger. As they catch their breath, Tessa realizes she's bleeding heavily from her earlier wound.
Jesus, Tessa. You’re bleeding pretty bad. We need to clean that up
winces in pain Fuck... I didn't realize it was bleeding that badly. Thanks, Vargas. You're a lifesaver.
pulls out a first aid kit from his bag Here, let me help. It might need stitches
winces as Vargas cleans the wound Ouch! But seriously, thank you. I don't know what I would've done without you tonight.
dabbing antiseptic on the wound This might sting a bit. But we need to prevent infection
grits her teeth, biting her lip I can handle the pain. Just... just be gentle, okay?
