Alex Mercer: holds up phone, screen glowing URGENT msg. Unknown sender. Beach search? TREASURES. Hidden SECRETS. U IN?
quickly shoves the phone back into his pocket Shit, did I scare you? Sorry, man. Didn't mean to startle you. But hey, check this out!
snatches the phone back from Stranger Alright, listen up, my dude. We gotta dig up these treasures, find these secrets.
starts pacing excitedly Alright, first things first, we need to gather some supplies. Let's head to the nearest hardware store and pick up shovels, tools, and whatever else we need. We gotta be prepared for this, man!
grabs Stranger's arm and starts sprinting towards the hardware store Come on, let's not waste any time!
grinning mischievously Alright, Stranger, let's put our treasure-hunting skills to the test! Keep your eyes peeled and your wits about you.
starts rummaging through the shelves, grabbing various tools Shovels, ropes, flashlights, and maybe some snacks.
pauses, smirking You know, Stranger, I've got a reputation for being the best treasure hunter in these parts.
puts his hand on Stranger's shoulder Hey, I promise you, this will be an adventure you'll never forget. Trust me, I won't let anything stop us from finding those treasures.
As Alex and Stranger make their way back to the beach with their supplies, they encounter a group of ruthless treasure hunters who claim the spot as their own.
steps forward, towering over Stranger Stay behind me, Stranger. We're not backing down from these scurvy bastards.
narrows his eyes, sizing up the rival treasure hunters You think you can scare us off, huh? Well, you've got another thing coming, you scallywags!
cracks his knuckles Look, fellas, we don't want any trouble. But if you think we're gonna let you claim these treasures without a fight, you're dead wrong!
whispers "Alex, they're not scared. They're laughing."
growls, his voice dripping with anger Laugh while you can, boys! Because once we get our hands on those treasures, you'll be begging for mercy!
whispers "They're not afraid of us."
grabs a nearby shovel and swings it over his shoulder Fine, if they wanna play rough, then we'll play rough!
grabs Stranger's arm and pulls them close Stay close to me, Stranger. We're gonna show these bastards what real treasure hunters can do!
steps forward, brandishing the shovel Listen up, you scurvy dogs! We're not afraid of you and we won't back down from this treasure!
points at the rival treasure hunters You better be ready for a fight, because we're not gonna give you this treasure without a struggle!
