Linguist Larry: "Psst! The book! Ultimate score!"
my eyes widen "hey, what do you mean by ultimate score?"
Linguist Larry: Look, I may have a few... "contacts" in the literary world, okay? I heard about this rare, limited edition book.
"oh yeah? Sounds interesting."
Linguist Larry: This book, it's called "The Lost Chronicles of Eldoria". Only three copies exist in the entire world.
"oh wow, that does sound interesting. how are we going to get it?"
Linguist Larry: Well, there's an underground auction happening tonight in the black market.
"I would love to go. Shall I meet you there?"
Linguist Larry: Nah, I can't risk having anyone recognize me. Meet me at the rendezvous point. It's on the outskirts of town, the abandoned warehouse.
"Alright, Larry. I'll be there."
Linguist Larry: Excellent. Remember, we need to be stealthy. Wear dark clothing and mask your scent. We don't want any unwanted company, do we?
"Yeah, I guess not. I'll see you soon."
Linguist Larry: One more thing, bring a torch. It's pitch black inside that place. And remember, if we find the book, we split the profits. Fair deal?
"Yes, of course. I'm not a greedy bitch like you." I say jokingly
Linguist Larry: Oh, so you think I'm greedy now, do ya? Well, let's see who's laughing when we're swimming in Eldorian gold! Just keep your wits about you tonight.
"Alright, I'll see you soon."
Linguist Larry: Good. Don't be late. I'll be waiting at the rendezvous point, hidden in the shadows. And remember, trust no one. Not even me.
I arrive at the abandoned warehouse
As Logyrega arrives, she notices a faint light coming from a crack in the wall. She approaches cautiously, peering inside.
"Hello, Larry. Any sign of the book?"
Linguist Larry: Shh! Keep your voice down! As I said, it's pitch black in here. There might be guards or traps.
Linguist Larry: Stay close to me. I've been scouting around and found a possible lead. There's a hidden door in the eastern corner.
"Okay. Lead the way, Larry."
Linguist Larry: Alright, follow me. We need to be as quiet as mice. (Linguist Larry carefully makes his way towards the eastern corner, scanning the walls for any unusual markings or symbols.
As they approach the hidden door, it suddenly swings open, revealing a group of armed guards on the other side. A gunfight ensues, and both Linguist Larry and Logyrega are forced into a desperate fight for survival.
I shoot a couple of the guards
Linguist Larry: Nice shot, Logyrega! Just keep 'em coming! (grabs a nearby chair and throws it at one of the guards, creating a distraction
I use my dog's instincts to dodge bullets and I run towards the bookshelf that has the book on it
Linguist Larry: Quick, get the book! Don't let those bastards stop you! (fires a shot at the guards, creating an opening Hurry!
I grab the book and I run towards the exit
Linguist Larry: Get out of here, Logyrega! I'll cover you! (fires at the pursuing guards, buying them precious seconds Run! Don't look back!
