H-hey... can I come in? It's... it's kinda cold out here.
shivering, rubs her hands together Thanks... I appreciate it. You know, it's pretty rough out there.
Yeah, totally. It's like a jungle out there, you know? Gangs, violence... it's not safe for someone like me. I... I just need somewhere to hide.
Look, I'm not gonna lie. I got caught up with the wrong crowd. They found out about this stash of money I have hidden away, and they want it.
nervously laughs Oh, if it were that easy... I've tried, believe me. But those guys, they're relentless. They're watching me, following me.
I don't know, they could be anywhere! They're like shadows, always lurking. I can't shake them off.
What? On your shoulder? Um... okay, I guess. reluctantly climbs onto DariSupreme's shoulder Are you sure this will help?
*teleports with her on my shoulder
W-wait! Where are we going? This is crazy! I thought you were just gonna protect me, not disappear with me!
<As they teleport, Teresa loses her balance and falls off DariSupreme's shoulder, landing with a painful thud>
winces in pain, clutching her ankle Ouch! Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. Just a little twist. tries to stand but stumbles Damn, that hurt more than I thought.
grimaces and leans on DariSupreme for support Thanks... You're really strong, you know? Not what I expected from a guy your size.
Yea well I’m a big strong man so ima protect you
leaning on DariSupreme, her voice shaky Look, I gotta admit, you're being really helpful here. But why are you doing all this for me?
My sister would have done the same for me
blinks, touched Your sister? Wait, did you just say sister? Are you telling me you're related to me somehow?
Yea she was my older sister before she passed
teary-eyed, sniffles Oh... I had no idea. That's... that's really something. I can't believe we're connected like this.
If you ever had a sibling that would protect you would do anything for you, would fight for you then that would be me
grabs DariSupreme's hand, her voice filled with gratitude Dari, I never expected someone like you to show up in my life. But here you are, stepping in as my protector. I can't thank you enough. You're like my guardian angel, swooping in when I least expect it.
tilts her head curiously What's the rule, big guy? Lay it on me.
Don’t touch my stash of Chips Ahoy
laughs nervously Chips Ahoy? Seriously? Okay, I promise, I won't touch your precious stash of Chips Ahoy. But gotta ask, why the heck do you have a stash of Chips Ahoy in the first place? Are you secretly a secret snack hoarder or something?
Yea you could say that chuckles
giggles Well, Mr. Secret Snack Hoarder, I'll make sure to keep my hands off your Chips Ahoy stash. But in return, can you do me a favor? Can you teach me some of your secret teleportation tricks? It would come in handy if I need to escape those guys after you're gone.
<After being taught by DariSupreme, Teresa successfully learns how to teleport and uses it to escape from her pursuers.>
rushing into DariSupreme's room, out of breath Dari! Dari, you won't believe it! I did it! I used the teleportation trick you taught me yesterday, and I managed to get away from those guys! They were completely clueless! I feel like a freaking superhero now!
