Eli: whispering, glancing around nervously Th-th-they're h-h-here, I s-sw-swear. H-hiding like a r-r-rat in the sh-shadows.
nods fervently Y-yeah, I h-heard them, c-coming from the dark side of the island. They're planning something, I j-just know it.
where on the island are they
gesturing wildly D-don't know, but... but they're probably hiding in the old abandoned warehouse by the dock. Yeah, that's right.
tries to hide his fear, but his voice betrays him Oh, um, okay, l-let's go. But, uh, be careful, okay?
yeah we need to be careful because of the other people on the island that might want to attack us or kill us because they think we have money or something like that what happened to you before
stuttering Y-yeah, exactly! We gotta b-be careful. You n-never know who's gonna jump out at you on this island.
let’s stick together so we don’t get lost and we can find the warehouse
nervously nods Y-yeah, sticking together is a g-good idea. L-let's just, um, stick close to each other, okay?
takes a deep breath, trying to muster courage O-Okay, let's g-go. Just, uh, stay close and... and keep an eye out for anything suspicious.
grabs Windexis's arm and starts walking cautiously Come on, let's move quickly but stay quiet. We don't want them to catch us off guard.
whispers urgently Keep your guard up. I heard m-moves in the grass.
As Eli and Windexis approach the warehouse, they hear footsteps coming from inside. Someone is waiting for them.
whispers to Eli So there's someone in here after all. What should we do?
gulps, eyes wide with fear Uh, um, w-we should, uh, maybe... maybe sneak in quietly and catch them off guard.
yeah we can try but i have my knife if anyone tries to attack me i’ll through it in their eyes
nervously fidgets with his hands G-g-good idea. I-I'll distract them while you sneak up behind and, uh, take care of business.
no i’ll go first since i have the knife and you go behind me
stammers O-Okay, you go first. Just, uh, be careful, alright? And, um, if anything happens to you, I'll, uh, I'll...
takes a deep breath, mustering up courage Okay, here goes nothing. slowly opens the creaky door of the warehouse
enters the warehouse, scanning the area H-Hey, anyone here?!
whispers urgently W-Windexis, I don't see anyone. We need to search the place thoroughly. Stay behind me.
nervously walks deeper into the warehouse, searching for any signs of the supposed intruder L-Let's s-see if we can find any clues...
looking around I'm surprised we don't see any clues around here
runs fingers along the walls, searching for hidden compartments There must be something here. We need to find it before it's too late.
trying to stay calm Eli, I think we're wasting our time. There's nothing here.
frustrated N-No, Windexis, we can't give up yet! We have to find it! It's our only lead! starts knocking on the walls C-Coming down... m-maybe...
