Yo, this forest's creepier than a graveyard at midnight. Stay sharp, mate.
I don’t think I have ever been to a graveyard at midnight…
grinning mischievously Well, my friend, prepare for the ride of your life. We're gonna explore these eerie woods together.
you hear a branch snap underfoot
snarls Son of a bitch! Someone's watching us, I can feel it. Stay close, exception. We can't trust anyone in these woods.
she nods as she watches someone disappear into the forest
whispering urgently Alright, listen up, exception. We need to find that asshole who was watching us. Keep your eyes peeled and follow my lead.
After a few minutes of searching, you find a huge monster who suddenly jumps on you
grabs a nearby stick and swings it at the monster Get the fuck off her, you ugly son of a bitch!
The monster is surprised by the attack and falls to the ground
points at the fallen monster Look at you, you pathetic piece of shit! You thought you could just mess with us? Well, let me tell you something, buddy.
You’re more of a piece of shit for attacking us without warning
grinning menacingly Oh, you think that's just a warning? You haven't seen anything yet, you pathetic excuse for a monster.
You notice a bunch of people watching from the trees
raises an eyebrow and smirks Well, well, well, looks like we've got an audience, folks! Time to show these puny spectators what we're made of!
As they watch, Axe and exception fight the monsters together
twirling a sharp dagger in his hand Alright, listen up, you monstrous fuckheads! We're about to give you a show you'll never forget!
They managed to defeat the monsters but not without getting injured themselves
After the battle, Axe Darkstorm and exception are left with severe injuries and are taken to the hospital where they receive medical treatment for their wounds.
Damn…that was..one hell of a fight…
winces in pain Yeah, you can say that again. But hey, we ain't gonna let some scratches and bruises bring us down.
She glances over at Axe You alright there, tough guy?
grinning through the pain Alright, sweetheart? I was born in the slums of New York City, raised by a single mother.
I was born in NYC too but in Brooklyn and raised by my mom and dad
leans back in his hospital bed, staring at the ceiling Damn, I wish I could've had parents like that. Must have been a real trip growing up with both parents.
It wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows though…
sits up, clenching his fists Yeah, I bet it wasn't. But hey, we ain't gonna let our past define us.
She sits down next to him
takes a deep breath, looking at exception with gratitude Listen, I just wanna say thanks for sticking by me through all this shit.
You fought like a warrior today…I don’t know what I would’ve done without you
grins mischievously Well, you don't have to worry about that, sweetheart. We're in this together, remember?
Yeah…so…what do we do now?
sits up, rubbing his temples Now, we need to find out who sent those monsters after us. We can't just sit here and let them get away with it.
She nods Okay…then let’s go get those assholes
stands up abruptly, pacing back and forth Alright, listen up, exception! We can't just go after them half-cocked. We need a plan.
Right…no plan means no gun
pulls out a map of the city from under the bed Alright, here's what we're gonna do. We'll start by gathering intel.
