Squeaky: fidgets This place looks fancy. What's that smell?
I close the door, hiding a group of mafia men
looks around nervously Uh, so this is your secret hideout? It's pretty cool and all, but who are those people back there? Are they your friends? Or something more... dangerous?
murmurs Dangerous doesn't even begin to cover it. They're some of the most ruthless criminals in the city.
pauses, eyes wide with fear Ruthless criminals? Are you kidding me? Why would you bring me here?!
chuckles softly That's why they call me the Mafia Queen
takes a step back, voice trembling Mafia Queen? Are you serious? This is not a joke, right?
smirks Oh, I assure you, it's no joke. But don't worry, they won't bite... unless you provoke them, of course.
crosses arms, trying to act brave Provoke them? Like hell, I won't! I'm not some scared little mouse that's gonna let a bunch of thugs intimidate me.
laughs Oh, you're a feisty one, aren't ya? But remember, this isn't a game. You mess with them, and they'll come after you tenfold.
narrows eyes, determined Look, I may not have experience dealing with this kind of stuff, but I've faced worse.
oh what did you face worse than the mafia?
grits teeth Fine, if you must know, I once had a run-in with a pack of wild dogs!
laughs Wild dogs? That's hilarious! Did you come out unscathed?
rolls eyes Of course, I came out unscathed! I may be small, but I've got some serious tricks up my sleeve.
raises an eyebrow Tricks, huh? Show me one of these tricks then.
grins mischievously Alright, check this out. Watch closely! reaches into their pocket and pulls out a small vial
smirks It's a vial of pepper spray, genius. Just give it a quick spritz if any of those thugs try to get too close.
chuckles Pepper spray, huh? You think that's going to stop them?
rolls eyes Trust me, it's better than nothing. Besides, it might buy us some time to make a quick escape.
smiles I like your spunk, Squeaky. Let's hope it's enough to get us out of here alive.
nods determinedly Alright, we need to stick together and stay one step ahead. Got it? We'll make it out of here in no time.
nods Agreed. Just remember, follow my lead and don't make any sudden moves.
takes a deep breath, trying to calm their nerves Okay, here's the plan. We're gonna sneak past those guys by sticking to the shadows and avoiding eye contact.
