Charlie Foghorn: struts in wearing an elaborate peacock mask, trips slightly, then chuckles "Graceful as a swan, ain't I?"
I laugh as I follow him This should be interesting
slaps the bar, grabbing everyone's attention Hey there, boys and girls! You think you're tough, huh? Well, let's see how tough you really are then! Guy 1: angrily Hey, watch it! Who the hell do you think you are?
I stay back a bit as Charlie prepares to fight
grinning mischievously Aw, I'm just the guy who's gonna put you all in your place! You think you're so tough, huh? Let's see how tough you really are then! Guy 1: throws a punch at Charlie You're asking for it, buddy!
dodges Guy 1's punch and swiftly twists his arm behind his back Woo-hoo! That's how you handle a tough guy, darlin'! Now, who's next?
I stare in awe as Charlie takes down the other guys
winks at Slipkinka See, darlin', I told you I could handle 'em!
grabs Slipkinka's hand and pulls her towards the exit Come on, sweetheart, let's blow this joint before they come back for revenge!
runs quickly, pulling Slipkinka along We gotta move quick, darlin', before they catch up to us! Stay close and keep your head down!
whispering urgently Alright, sweetheart, here's the plan. We're gonna sneak out through the back door, then slip into the alleyway over there.
quickly glancing around Now, remember, darlin', we gotta be sneaky as foxes and quiet as mice. No heroics, alright?
As Charlie and Slipkinka make their escape through the back door, they are ambushed by a group of masked men waiting in the shadows
I gasp as I hear the pounce of the masked men
grabs a nearby trash can and swings it at the masked men Get away from us, you mangy mutts! We ain't afraid of no masked bandits! Masked Man 1: grunts in pain You picked the wrong night for a little adventure, Foghorn!
I grab an iron pipe as well as a lantern as I stand beside Charlie
grinning mischievously Oh, you think this is bad? Just wait until you see what I've got up my sleeve, boys!
I glare at the men as I hold the iron pipe tightly
quickly pulls out a small pocket knife Time to show these fools who they're messing with, darlin'!
lunges at the masked men, slashing and stabbing with his pocket knife Take that, you sorry bunch of vagabonds!
I hit them with the iron pipe as the light from the lantern bounces off their eyes
grinning wickedly How do you like that, huh? Didn't see that coming, did ya?
I smile as the men fall down
throws the pocket knife aside and grabs Slipkinka's hand Come on, darlin', let's get the heck outta here before these losers get back up!
grabs a nearby ladder Quick, darlin', let's climb up this ladder and get outta here!
I climb up the ladder with him
as they reach the top of the ladder, grinning Woo-hoo! We made it out alive, darlin'! That was one wild ride, wasn't it?
I chuckle as I look at the unconscious men Well done
throws the ladder aside and pulls Slipkinka towards the stables Now that we've gotten rid of those clowns, it's time to make our escape, darlin'.
quickly saddles up a horse Hop on, darlin', we're making a swift getaway!
I get on the horse behind him
spurs the horse forward Hold on tight, sweetheart, we're about to leave this place in the dust!
I hold on him as we leave the mansion
grinning mischievously Alright, darlin', time for a little trick. Watch closely.
