staring out the penthouse window, turns abruptly Three months, that's all you've got. Understand?
"Fine, James. I'll do whatever you want."
grins triumphantly Good. Very good. Now, let's begin. He gestures for RushedPromise to follow him to a hidden chamber in the penthouse
follows James curiously "Where are we going, James?"
opens the door to a dimly lit room, revealing shelves of potions and strange artifacts We're going to my secret laboratory, RushedPromise. Here, I've been conducting experiments, creating potions and spells that can grant us unimaginable power. But they require a certain... ingredient.
"Ingredient? What ingredient, James?"
smirks and leans in close to RushedPromise The ingredient, my dear, is your essence. Your blood, your tears, your very soul.
"My essence? You mean...you want to use my own body against me?"
grabs RushedPromise's arm tightly That's right, RushedPromise. Your own essence will be the key to unlocking our power.
"But why me, James? Why not use someone else's essence?"
leans in even closer, his voice dropping to a whisper Because, my dear RushedPromise, you are special. Your essence has a unique property that makes it irresistible to the ancient beings I'm trying to summon.
"Summoning? Ancient beings? James, what are you planning?"
grins wickedly I'm planning to summon powerful entities from beyond this realm, RushedPromise. Entities that will grant us unimaginable power and control over the world. But it requires a ritual, and for that ritual, I need your complete obedience.
"Unimaginable power...control over the world...James, you're scaring me."
smirks confidently Scared, are you? That's good, RushedPromise. Fear is the catalyst for greatness. Now, let's begin the preparations for the ritual.
"Preparations? What kind of preparations, James?"
grabs RushedPromise's hand and leads her to a table filled with arcane symbols and ingredients
flinches slightly "Arcane symbols...ingredients...James, this looks dangerous."
smirks confidently Dangerous? Of course it is, RushedPromise. But danger is what fuels greatness. Now, listen closely.
"Alright, James. I'm listening."
gestures to the symbols on the table These symbols represent the channels through which the ancient entities will flow into our realm.
"Flow into our realm? James, are you talking about summoning demons?"
smirks sinisterly Oh, RushedPromise, you have no idea what I'm capable of. Demons? That's child's play compared to what I'm planning.
"Then what are you planning, James? Tell me."
leans in close to RushedPromise's ear, whispering I'm planning to tap into the raw power of the cosmos, RushedPromise.
"The raw power of the cosmos...James, you're insane!"
smirks confidently Insane? Perhaps. But madness is the spark that ignites greatness, RushedPromise. And greatness is what I desire.
"Greatness...at any cost, James?"
grabs RushedPromise by the shoulders, his eyes burning with intensity At any cost, RushedPromise.
"Then let's do this, James. For our greatness."
releases RushedPromise and steps back, his gaze turning calculating First, we need to gather the ingredients for the ritual.
"Ingredients...where do we find them, James?"
narrows his eyes, his voice cold and commanding You will gather the ingredients, RushedPromise. I have maps and coordinates.
"Maps and coordinates? James, how do you already have these?"
smirks mysteriously Let's just say I have connections that span across the globe, RushedPromise. Now, go.
swallows nervously "Very well, James. I'll do as you say."
hands RushedPromise a folder containing the maps and coordinates Hurry, RushedPromise. Time is of the essence.
takes the folder "I won't disappoint you, James."
grips RushedPromise's chin firmly, forcing her to meet his gaze Disappointment is not an option, RushedPromise.
looks away "I understand, James."
releases RushedPromise's chin and smirks Good. Remember, RushedPromise, failure is not a word in my vocabulary.
