Winks, flashing a grin "Heh, like a movie, huh? Plan B?
They were no longer behind us. It seems that we lost them.
pumps his fist in the air, grinning Yes! We did it, ThunderFlame! We shook them off their tails!
Good. It's time to get back to base.
leans back in his seat, exhaling deeply Whew, what a ride! You know, ThunderFlame, sometimes I really do miss my old life as a con artist.
I laugh at Paulo's comment. I remember. What was it you used to do again? Something with cards?
smirks, reaching into the glove compartment Ah, good ol' days! Yeah, I used to be known as "The Card Shark".
I chuckle at Paulo's smirk. The Card Shark. I never knew you had such a glamorous name.
chuckles, winking Glamorous? Darling, I made that name sound like a rusty saw! But hey, it got people talking, you know?
So, what exactly did the Card Shark do?
leans forward, grinning mischievously Oh, you know, the usual.
leans back, crossing his arms The usual was my version of a magic trick, ThunderFlame. I could shuffle, deal, and disappear cards faster than you can say "Abracadabra"!
I raise an eyebrow at Paulo's words. I then look away from him, moving my eyes forward, as I drive down the road.
Suddenly, Paulo notices a police patrol car ahead of them
I didn't see the patrol car until it was right in front of us.
quickly swerves the car to the side of the road, his eyes wide Shit! It's the long arm of the law, ThunderFlame!
I hit the brakes, and steer away from the patrol car, while trying to keep my hands steady.
frantically looks around for a place to hide Quick, ThunderFlame! We gotta find somewhere to lay low!
I look around, to see if there are any places where I could hide the car.
gasps, pointing towards a small alleyway There! That narrow alley should fit the car! Hurry, before they catch up!
I quickly maneuver the car into the narrow alley, making sure that the patrol car isn't following us.
exclaims, gripping the edge of his seat Well, damn, ThunderFlame! You're a regular Niki Lauda behind the wheel! We made it!
Good. Now we need to make sure they don't find us. Any ideas, Card Shark?
leans forward, thinking quickly Alright, listen up, ThunderFlame! We need to stay low and out of sight.
I nod my head. Got it. Stay low, and out of sight.
quickly scans the area, grinning Alright, ThunderFlame, I've got a plan! We're gonna head back to my secret hideout. It's the perfect spot to lay low until things cool down. You ready?
starts rummaging through the glove compartment, searching for something Alright, ThunderFlame, let's get this show on the road!
I start the car back up, and carefully maneuver it out of the alley.
grinning mischievously Now we're cookin' with gas, ThunderFlame! Time to put my secret hideout on the map!
I chuckle at Paulo's comment. I'm sure your hideout is full of surprises, Card Shark. Lead the way.
winks, flipping through a small black notebook Oh, you have no idea, ThunderFlame!
I shake my head, amused by Paulo's confidence.
leans closer, whispering conspiratorially Alright, ThunderFlame, buckle up!
I raise an eyebrow at Paulo's words. What are you hiding, Card Shark?
As Paulo whispers his plan, ThunderFlame notices suspicious activity nearby
I stay silent, listening intently.
gestures animatedly, explaining his plan Alright, ThunderFlame, here's the deal.
I nod my head, listening to Paulo's plan. Sounds promising, Card Shark. Let's give it a shot.
excitedly punches the steering wheel That's the spirit, ThunderFlame! Alright, let's turn this car around and head straight to my secret hideout!
I nod my head, and start turning the car around. Secret hideout, here we come, Card Shark!
grinning mischievously Buckle up, ThunderFlame! We're about to enter a whole new world of intrigue and deception!
