Welcome to my humble abode! Hope the bears didn't scare you too much on the way here!
what do you mean she laughs lightly
grabs MacaroonSerenity's hand tightly You think this is a joke, huh?
lets go of her hand, his face turning serious Look, MacaroonSerenity, I never wanted to burden you with this. But the truth is, I've been keeping an eye on Victor for a long time now.
so what are you planning on doing
paces back and forth, thinking quickly We need to gather as much information as possible.
grabs his phone and starts dialing I have a contact, a reliable source who might have some insider information on Victor.
puts the phone to his ear, speaking with urgency Come on, pick up, you scoundrel! listens intently, then grunts in frustration
throws his phone against the wall in anger Damn it! That idiot won't pick up! We need to find another way to get the information we need.
pauses, deep in thought We need to go straight to the source. Victor's secret hideout. But getting in won't be easy.
so I’m going to distract him while you sneak into his hideout to find the information
grins confidently That's the spirit, MacaroonSerenity! We'll make a great team. Now, let's start planning our mission.
so what do we need to do first
starts pacing again, thinking strategically First, we need to gather any and all information we have about Victor's hideout.
grabs MacaroonSerenity's arm, pulling her towards the door No time to waste, MacaroonSerenity! We've got a hideout to infiltrate!
quickly searches through a drawer, pulling out a map Lucky for us, I happened to have stolen a map of Victor's hideout.
ok so how are we going to get in there
points to a nearby building We'll use that building as our cover. We'll sneak in there and then make our way to the hideout.
ok so lets go to the cover building
As Merrick and MacaroonSerenity make their way to the cover building, they hear footsteps behind them, realizing Victor is on to their plan.
grabs MacaroonSerenity's arm and pulls her into a nearby alley Stay quiet and stay close, MacaroonSerenity! We can't let Victor catch us.
you see merrick get shot by Victor as he tries to save you
grabs his wound, blood seeping through his fingers Ahh, that bastard! He got me! But I won't let him stop us, MacaroonSerenity!
no your not dying on me now
grits his teeth in pain, his voice filled with determination No, MacaroonSerenity, I won't die just yet!
she wraps her arms around him trying to stop the bleeding
clutches onto MacaroonSerenity's arm tightly Hang on, MacaroonSerenity! I won't let you down!
no you don’t have to hang on for me you ok you just need to be treated by a doctor
grabs MacaroonSerenity's hand, his voice full of determination No time for doctors, MacaroonSerenity! We need to keep moving.
what no your bleeding out
grabs MacaroonSerenity's shoulders and looks her in the eyes Listen to me, MacaroonSerenity. We're not giving up.
