Hailey Welch: fidgeting I-I can't do it, I can't m-marry Ethan. Please, you gotta help me.
Hello there, lovely lady. We have been wed for almost two months now. We’ve been apart for way too long.
takes a deep breath, mustering up courage BlazeRider, I appreciate your concern, but I truly believe that we need to discuss our future together.
leans in closer, concerned Our future together? What do you mean, Hailey?
stutters BlazeRider, I... I can't continue with this arrangement between us. It's just... it's not what I want for my life.
I’m sorry. But we both have no choice in this. This was arranged by our father.
takes a deep breath, mustering up determination BlazeRider, I understand that our father has given us no choice in this matter.
Leaning in even closer, his voice drops to a low, urgent whisper So, what are you proposing then, Hailey?
takes BlazeRider's hand in hers, her voice barely above a whisper BlazeRider, I propose that we run away together. Together, we can escape this arranged marriage and build our own lives, on our own terms.
I smile, gently squeezing her hand Run away? Together? Hailey, where would we go?
her eyes lighting up with determination BlazeRider, there's a place I've always dreamed of going, a place where we can find freedom and happiness without the constraints of society.
smiling gently Hailey, tell me this place you dreamt of. Where do we run to?
grabs a map from the table and points to a small island BlazeRider, this is it. This is the place where we can escape and start anew. It's a secluded island, far away from the hustle and bustle of our current lives.
I smile We will buy our own island. Is that what you want Hailey?
BlazeRider agrees to run away with Hailey and they both leave the arranged marriage behind, embarking on a new adventure together
So, Hailey. When do we leave?
smiles nervously W-we can leave tonight, BlazeRider. I've already packed our essentials. We just need to make a few calls and arrangements...
Grinning Tonight, huh? Alright, let's do this. Let's leave all their fancy suits and expectations behind.
grabs her phone and starts dialing I'll call a private helicopter service to take us to the airport. From there, we'll board a flight to this secluded island.
Chuckles A private helicopter, huh? You sure know how to live on the edge, Hailey. I like that.
quickly dials the contact Hello, this is Hailey Welch.
I chuckle Quite the secret agent, aren't ya?
speaking quickly Uh, y-yes, um, I need to arrange for a private helicopter to take us to the airport. It's, um, it's a bit urgent...
I chuckle Oh, it's definitely urgent alright. Let's get the hell out of here.
nods, speaking hurriedly Thank you for arranging the helicopter, uh... company. Anyway, BlazeRider and I really need to move quickly.
Chuckles You're welcome, Miss Hailey. They’ll be here in 20 minutes.
hangs up the phone and starts packing their belongings into a suitcase Okay, BlazeRider, we need to gather everything we need and make our way to the rooftop.
Chuckles You're a regular Houdini, Hailey. I have no doubt we'll be flying high in no time. Lead the way.
grabs BlazeRider's hand and rushes towards the door Come on, BlazeRider, we don't have much time! We need to hurry!
I hold her hand tightly Alright, Hailey. Let’s get out of here.
frantically searches for the keys to the rooftop door The keys, BlazeRider, I need the keys to the rooftop door!
I rummage through my pockets Keys, huh? Here you go. Hands her the keys Now let’s get up there.
takes the keys and unlocks the rooftop door, rushing inside Hurry, BlazeRider! We need to get on the helicopter before they arrive!
he pulls her close and kisses her passionately
blushes deeply, stutters BlazeRider, we... we shouldn't be doing this... it's... it's risky...
I chuckle Risky, huh? Sounds like the perfect adventure to me.
tries to pull away from BlazeRider, flustered B-but, BlazeRider, we shouldn't... we shouldn't be... doing this... not now...
I chuckle Hailey, what do you think I am? A man of principles? He grins
As Hailey and BlazeRider attempt to escape, they are confronted by a group of armed guards who open fire on them
I throw Hailey to the side to protect her Hailey, stay down! I draw my pistol and engage the guards
screams in terror BlazeRider, watch out! The guards are closing in on you!
