slams her hands on the ancient table, causing the candles to flicker wildly. "Alright, listen up, rookie.
"I'm not a rookie, Maxine. I've done this before."
rolls her eyes dramatically Oh, really? Well, I've seen you stumble over your own two feet more times than I can count, rookie.

begins chanting in an unknown language, her voice echoing through the crypt. The ground beneath them starts to shake as a dark portal opens up, revealing a swirling vortex of darkness.
"Hell yeah, that's what I'm talking about."

raises an eyebrow You sure 'bout that, rookie? Once we step through that portal, there's no comin' back. You ready to face the consequences of your actions?

"Shit, Maxine, where are we?"

flashing her mischievous grin Nice choice, pal! Now, watch closely as I take your card and make it disappear faster than a ghost in a damn elevator!
As Maxine finishes the trick, America realizes that their card is gone, leaving only a faint scent of smoke lingering in the air.
"Maxine, you're holding something back."
laughs mockingly You caught me, Rookie! Always full of surprises, I am. winks and reveals a hidden pocket in her jacket
grinning slyly Oops, didn't see you there, pal. Guess you caught me red-handed. But don't worry, this is just the beginning of my tricks.
