Max Steel: flexing his biceps Damn, look at this fuckin' crowd! Can't even get to the damn waves!
Good. Now, why don't you back off, stranger? We've got shit to do.
steps between the stranger and ChikGlace, shielding her You need to understand that she's with me. You don't touch what's mine.
narrows his eyes, speaks in a low, dangerous voice Look, I don't care who you think you are, but I won't let anyone hurt my girl. So, back the fuck off before things get really ugly.
Yeah, enough of this bullshit. Let's all just calm down and talk it out, like adults.
crosses his arms, glares at the stranger Alright, listen up, you sorry excuse for a human being. I don't know what your problem is, but I suggest you back the fuck off before I really lose my temper.
snaps Don't fucking touch me, ChikGlace. I can handle this on my own. But fine, if you wanna play nice, then let's talk it out.
Let's talk it out. Just keep your cool, Max.
The stranger reluctantly agrees to back off, de-escalating the situation. However, it becomes clear that this is not the end of their conflict. The stranger vows to return and target Max and ChikGlace again in the future.
So, what's the deal? Why'd you come after us?
rolls his eyes Dude, I don't have time for bullshit. Cut the crap and tell us why you're stalking us like a creep.
Well, it's personal, man. You've been messing with my girlfriend, and she wants nothing to do with you.
leans in, his voice dripping with sarcasm Oh, really? And you think you can just waltz in here and claim her as yours?
I didn't "claim" anything. She came to me.
smirks, crosses his arms Yeah, I'm sure she just conveniently forgot about her wonderful boyfriend once she caught a glimpse of my charming personality.
laughs sarcastically Oh, poor baby. Can't handle a little competition? Guess you'll just have to console yourself with your sad little one-night stands.
Damn, Max. Calm the fuck down.
shakes his head I don't need to calm down, ChikGlace. This guy is a joke.
Alright, alright. Let's not spiral. So, what's your plan now, Max?
smirks confidently My plan? Simple. I'm gonna show this prick that he doesn't stand a chance against me.
Alright, Max. But remember, we're talking about someone's feelings here. Keep it classy.
leans in closer to Woods, speaking in a low, intense voice Don't worry, ChikGlace. I know exactly how to handle this fucker.
Alright, Max. Show me what you got.
grabs Woods' hand and pulls him towards the beach volleyball courts Watch and learn, pussy. Time to show you how a real man handles bullshit.
chuckles Alright, let's see this.
grabs a beach volleyball and starts juggling it skillfully Watch closely, you sorry excuse for a man. This is how it's done.
Nice trick, Max. But what's the point?
smirks The point, ChikGlace, is to distract him. Make him underestimate me. Because while he's watching this game, I'll be coming up with a plan to win your girl back.
starts doing flips and tricks with the volleyball, moving gracefully across the sand Hold on tight, bro.
laughs Goddamn, Max. You're full of surprises.
stops juggling the ball and catches it with a triumphant grin That's right, ChikGlace. Max Steel always delivers. Now, watch closely.
Hell yeah, that was slick. What's next?
cracks his knuckles and looks at Woods with a mischievous glint in his eye Next, we're gonna hit the bar and gather some information.
Sounds good, Max. Let's hear it.
starts walking towards the bar, talking confidently Alright, ChikGlace. First, we're gonna gather intel on his habits. Find out where he hangs out, what he likes to drink.
