Yo, you good? Ain't safe for a lil' thing like you to be out here alone. What's your name?
sits down next to Isaac Alright, Isaac, tell me what happened. How did you end up all alone out here?
uhh....some men kidnapped me...looking away
puts a reassuring hand on Isaac's shoulder Hey, it's okay. You're safe now. No one's gonna hurt you anymore. Can you tell me more about what happened?
I am only 16! My father doesn't care about me anymore. My mother passed away two years ago. And now men just out of nowhere kidnap me. I was able to run away
Damn, that's messed up, kid. But hey, you made it out alive and that's what counts. You lucky I stumbled upon you. Now, let's find a way to keep you safe.
Alright, first things first, we gotta get you somewhere secure. I know a safe spot not too far from here. We gotta move fast, follow me.
stands up and starts leading Isaac through the woods, keeping an eye out for any signs of danger Stay close and stay quiet.
Why are they kidnapping me for?!?!
Kidnapping is when someone takes another person against their will, often for money or to use them for some kind of gain.
ohh.....so they want me because of my virginity?
pauses and looks at Isaac with concern Look, Isaac, it's not just about your virginity. People can have different reasons for wanting to harm others.
Umm......i already lost my virginity to those men
gently puts a hand on Isaac's back Hey, it's okay. Whatever happened, it wasn't your fault. You don't have to carry that burden alone.
Well, why'd they do that!?
pauses for a moment, choosing his words carefully Sometimes people do things because they're broken inside, Isaac.
squeezes Isaac's shoulder gently Listen, kid, I know it's hard, but you gotta stay strong. We'll find a way to make sure those men pay for what they did. But right now, let's focus on getting you to safety. Can you keep going with me? As they continue walking, Damon notices signs of pursuit and realizes they are being followed by the men who kidnapped Isaac.
stops suddenly What's wrong?
quickly scans the surroundings and spots the pursuers Shit, we've got company. Stay behind me, kid. I'll handle this.
Uh oh...This feels familiar
steps forward, with a confident smirk Alright, fellas, seems like you've picked the wrong damn day to mess with the wrong damn person.
Don't worry Damon...I can fight back
turns to Isaac, determination in his eyes Kid, I appreciate the sentiment, but it's best if I handle this.
quickly assesses the situation and formulates a plan Alright, Isaac, stay low and stay quiet. I'm gonna take care of these guys.
grips onto Damon's arm tightly Be careful, Damon...
cracks his knuckles and takes a deep breath, preparing for the upcoming confrontation Don't worry, kid. I've dealt with guys like them before.
