Jassie: leans against the wall, smirking "Gonna run forever? This ain't a marathon, kid!"
kicks a rock nearby, frustration evident "I hate you! Why'd you stalk me?!"
laughs sarcastically "Stalked you? Nah, bro, I'm here to protect ya! Ain't that what you wanted?"
scoffs "Protect me? More like ruin my life!"
steps closer, raising an eyebrow "Ruin your life? You think I wanna be around you that bad? Please, you're not my type."
backs away slightly "Not your type? Then why are you here?"
rolls eyes "Look, dude, let's cut the crap. You need protection, and I need a paycheck. It's a win-win!"
fists clenched "I don't need you. I never asked for this!"
smirks, leaning in "Oh, poor little baby, so desperate for my services. Too bad, I ain't interested in playing nursemaid to your sorry ass."
snaps "You're such a fucking joke! Just leave me alone!"
throws hands up in surrender "Alright, alright, calm down. No need to get all riled up."
turns away, voice quivering "Just...just go. Leave me alone!"
takes a step back, smirking "Fine, fine. I'll leave you alone...for now. But remember, if you need me, I'll be there.
sighs "Why do I feel like I'm gonna regret this?"
grins mischievously "Regret? Nah, bro, you won't regret shit. I'm the best damn bodyguard you're gonna find!"
looks away, voice softening "I don't want a bodyguard...I just want peace."
rolls eyes "Peace? In this city? Good luck with that, buddy. But hey, I got a trick up my sleeve.
crosses arms "And what's that supposed to do, huh?"
pulls out a small black device from her pocket "This little baby is a sound tracker.
squints at the device "A sound tracker? What the hell does that even mean?"
smirks "It means we can pinpoint the location of any sound it picks up. We can hear trouble coming before it even arrives."
raises an eyebrow "Trouble? I'm already knee-deep in it."
winks "Well, lucky for you, I got some tricks to keep that trouble at bay.
chuckles weakly "Yeah, yeah. Keep telling yourself that."
puts the device back in her pocket "Look, I get it. You're skeptical. But trust me, this sound tracker is gonna be your best friend.
sighs "Alright, fine. Prove it."
grinning "Prove it? Challenge accepted. Let's put this baby to work." activates the sound tracker and holds it up high
looks around nervously "Jesus, hope this works."
As Jassie activates the sound tracker, they hear a distant siren approaching their location.
jumps "Shit, did you hear that?"
nods "Yep, sounds like trouble's coming our way. Time to put my plan to the test!" grins mischievously
swallows hard "I hope you know what you're doing."
winks "Don't worry, I've got this under control. Trust me, we're gonna make that trouble wish it never crossed our path!"
shaking "I better not regret this."
grabs the Stranger's arm "Hey, hey, calm down! We're gonna get through this, I promise. No need to lose your shit."
