Jack Miner: brandishing the iron rod Iron or bust, partner! Keep those peepers peeled! We need to dig deep!
I start to cry and hide my face in Jack’s chest
Jack Miner: whispers to Idealefie Stay calm, kid. Keep your head down and breathe. peeks out from behind the rock
I nod and try to steady my breathing
The leader throws the grenade towards Jack Miner, but he quickly dives to the ground, pulling Idealefie along with him. The grenade explodes nearby, causing a massive explosion. Damn bastards! winces as the explosion rocks the area
I press myself against Jack trying to get away from the explosion
After the explosion, Jack Miner and Idealefie take cover behind a large boulder. Jack assesses the situation, realizing that they must escape quickly before the treasure hunters recover.
I look up at Jack Jack, are you ok?
Jack Miner: wipes dust and debris off his face I'm fine, kid. Good thing we ducked behind this rock. checks Idealefie for injuries You alright there? Let's get outta here before those scoundrels regroup.
I nod weakly What should we do now?
Jack Miner: clutches the iron rod tightly We need to move fast, kid. Follow my lead and keep your eyes peeled for any more of those damn treasure hunters.
Jack Miner: gestures for Idealefie to follow Alright, listen up, kid. We're gonna make a run for that ridge over yonder.
Jack Miner: keeps a tight grip on Idealefie's arm Stay close, kid. We need to keep our movements quick and quiet.
Jack Miner: whispers urgently Alright, we're gonna have to make a dash for it.
Jack Miner: raises the iron rod defensively Keep your head down, kid. We're gonna sprint towards that ridge.
Jack Miner: grabs Idealefie's hand tightly Come on, kid! We gotta hurry! starts sprinting alongside her Keep your grip tight, kid.
I nod and hold onto Jack's hand
Jack Miner: whispers urgently Stay low, kid. We're almost there. gestures for Idealefie to follow his lead
I keep low and follow Jack
Jack Miner: quickly scans the area Keep your eyes peeled, kid. We might run into some more of those treasure hunters up ahead.
