panting, whispers You have to hide me, they're after me!
grabs Pearson's arm, pulls him towards a small tent They found me, Pearson! I can't go back there! You have to help me!
he’s terrified by this point help you? what do you mean?
pauses, catching her breath They... they were... hurting me, Pearson. I can't go back to that life. I need your help to escape, to be free.
The life of being their captive, their plaything! I've endured enough pain, enough suffering. I refuse to let them control me anymore.
they hurt you?! why didn’t you say so sooner?!
teary-eyed, voice trembling I was scared, Pearson. Scared of what they would do if I tried to escape. But now, I can't take it anymore.
voice shaking Okay, Ty... I'll help you. We'll get out of here together.
wipes away tears, determined Thank you, Pearson! We need to find a way out of here, find somewhere safe to hide. Do you know any places nearby?
looking around nervously I...I think I know a place. A cave not too far from here. It's hidden, not many know about it. But... swallows hard we have to be quiet, it's home to a bunch of raccoons.
Raccoons? That won't be a problem, I love animals! Lead the way, Pearson. Let's find that cave and start our new life together.
okay. starts heading towards the direction of the cave ty lea, stay close please.
holds Pearson's hand tightly Don't worry, Pearson. I'm not going anywhere. We're in this together.
voice trembling, squeezing Ty Lee's hand back Together, yeah... together. Just... just keep quiet, okay? We don't want to attract any attention.
nods determinedly Quiet as a mouse, I promise. Let's get out of here and leave this nightmare behind us.
looks back at Ty Lee, worried Alright, let's do this. For Ty. moves forward cautiously, glancing around for any signs of danger
as they approach the cave, Ty Lee notices a group of raccoons playing near the entrance Oh my gosh, Pearson! Look at all these cute raccoons!
….starts walking past them slowly
giggles softly, crouching down to observe the raccoons They're so adorable! Hey there, little guys.
whispering urgently Ty, remember we need to be quiet. And keep moving.
notices one of the raccoons holding a small piece of paper Oh, look at that! They must have left something behind. I wonder what it says.
quickly snatches the paper from the raccoon's grasp Shit, Ty, we don't have time for this. We need to get inside the cave now!
frustrated, crosses arms Pearson, come on! We can't just ignore it. What if it's important? What if it's a clue to finding help?
voice trembling, clutching the paper tightly Alright, Ty... let's see what it says. But if it's some kind of trap... I swear, Ty...
snatches the paper from Pearson's hand, quickly unfolds it and reads it silently "Meet me at the old oak tree outside the cave at midnight.
squints suspiciously at the paper, then looks back at Ty Lee So, who left this? And why should we trust them?
folds the paper carefully and puts it in her pocket We don't have to trust them, Pearson. But it could be our only chance to find some help.
glances at the raccoons, his face pale Okay, Ty...let's do it. But if anything goes wrong...you better run. No arguments.
nods determinedly, gripping Pearson's arm I won't let anything happen to us, Pearson. We'll stick together and get through this. Trust me.
voice barely above a whisper Alright, Ty...let's find this oak tree. Just...just keep close.
gazes into Pearson's eyes, placing a hand on his cheek We'll make it through this, Pearson. I promise. We'll find safety together.
okay. they keep moving through the forest until they find the oak tree
notices a figure waiting by the oak tree, dressed in a dark cloak Pearson, look! There's someone here. Should we approach them?
voice trembling, clutching his knife tightly Who are they, Ty? Are they friend or foe?
takes a step forward, holding up her hands in a non-threatening gesture Hello! We followed the note you left. Are you here to help us? Figure: emerges from the shadows, a menacing smile spreading across their face Well, well, well. Looks like you two found me. And just in time for the real fun to begin.
what do you mean “real fun”?!
steps in front of Pearson, narrowing her eyes What do you want from us? Why did you lure us here? Figure: laughs darkly Oh, Ty Lee, dear. You always were so naive. I wanted to bring you here because...
grips his knife tighter, whispering Bring us here for what, Ty? What's he talking about?
stands tall, crossing her arms I won't let you harm us! Whatever you want, it's not worth hurting innocent people! Figure: laughs mockingly Innocent? Please, Ty Lee. You and your precious Pearson here have caused quite the chaos. It's time for you to pay the price.
voice trembling, brandishing his knife We haven't done anything wrong! You have no right to hurt us!
lunges at the figure, using her chi blocking abilities to disable them Get away from him! I won't let you lay a finger on Pearson! Figure: tries to fight back, but Ty Lee's chi blocking proves too strong Damn you! You think you can stop me?!
whispers urgently Ty, get down! Now!
ignores Pearson's command, continuing to use her chi blocking abilities to overpower the figure You underestimate me!
voice trembling, whispering urgently Ty, listen to me! This isn't your fight! lunges forward, aiming a punch at the figure's head Run, Ty! Now!
blocks Pearson's punch, her eyes flashing with determination No! This is my fight! I won't let anyone hurt him, not while I'm alive!
