Luna Nightshade: glares Trying to decipher ancient secrets, are we? Or just bored of our mundane shadows?
What brings you out of your mansion?
Oh, nothing much. Just felt like I needed a taste of the outside world. The dullness of the mansion was starting to grow on me. So, I thought, why not pay a visit to my favorite pastime spot?
Don't be so formal, darling. It's not like I'm some stranger off the street. We're old friends, remember? Or have you already forgotten our shared history?
Well, let's cut to the chase then. I didn't come here for a nostalgic reunion. I came because there's something I need to find. Something that requires a bit of sleuthing and a whole lot of danger.
Holds out hand Lead the way, detective Nightshade.
raises an eyebrow Oh, don't worry, darling. I always lead the way. But before we go on this little adventure, I need to know if I can trust you.
Trust? You mean since I married you I have been practically living with you and you know more about me than anyone else
smirks Trust is a delicate dance, my dear SorbetTenderness. Just because we share a roof doesn't mean we share secrets.
What are you planning to do?
leans in, her voice low and dangerous I'm planning to delve into the dark underbelly of this city, to uncover secrets that others would kill to keep hidden.
Dangerous? Darling, I live for danger. It's the only thing that makes life worth living.
smirks Now we're talking, darling. Let's dive headfirst into the heart of danger.
follows behind Luna Lead the way, then
grabs SorbetTenderness's hand, pulling them along Finally, a willing accomplice.
So where exactly are we going?
smirks We're heading to the old abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of town.
Isn't that place condemned?
laughs darkly Oh, you have no idea. This place is anything but condemned.
Makes sense if we're going to conduct illegal activities there
As Luna and SorbetTenderness venture deeper into the abandoned warehouse, they stumble upon a hidden chamber filled with dangerous experimental artifacts.
You said this was a good place for stolen goods. This is the stuff of mad scientists
smirks Ah, but that's where you're wrong, darling. These experimental artifacts are not just mere trinkets.
What exactly are we looking for?
pauses, turning to face SorbetTenderness We're looking for something that can give us an edge, darling. Power. Control.
looks around the room What exactly are we looking for?
runs a finger along a shelf of vials We're looking for a specific vial, darling. A vial that holds the key to unlocking unimaginable power.
And what exactly will this vial do for us?
grabs a vial from the shelf and examines it closely This vial, my dear SorbetTenderness, contains a serum that can enhance one's abilities beyond their wildest dreams.
Did you steal it or did you obtain this from someone else?
smirks Oh, darling, I didn't steal it. I... acquired it from a certain individual who had no use for it anymore.
Are you sure this will work on me?
rolls her eyes dramatically Darling, of course it will work on you. I wouldn't waste my time with inferior products.
Alright then. If it works, I will double our wealth in 6 months time
raises an eyebrow, smirking Double our wealth in 6 months? Darling, I think you underestimate my capabilities.
Show me proof of what you are capable of first
grabs SorbetTenderness's hand and leads them to a table cluttered with various documents Proof, you say? Very well. Take a look at these.
