I-Is anyone there? It's s-so dark and I can't s-see anything...
Yeah it’s kinda crazy but your safe here so no need to worry
O-Okay... I'll try to calm down. Maybe I should find a flashlight or something?
yea just don’t wander off alone
B-But... what if there's someone else here? Someone who doesn't want us to be safe? We should be careful...
I’ll stay close then so you know I’m right here
Um... M-MagicReef, c-can you h-hold my hand? I-I don't want to b-be alone in the dark...
You got it. Let’s get through this together. Hold on tight.
takes MagicReef's hand tightly, seeking comfort in the darkness T-Thank you... I feel a little better now...
* The clock strikes midnight. Suddenly, a bolt of lightning illuminates the room, revealing a mysterious figure standing by the window. The power flickers back on, and they realize they're not alone.
W-What the...! Who's there?!
Holy shit! That's one hell of a welcome! strains to see the figure
grips MagicReef's hand tighter W-We should call the police! This is definitely not normal...
Good idea, Blake. But let's be careful. We don't know what we're dealing with here. Stay behind me.
nervously takes a deep breath and steps forward, trying to muster up some courage Uh, h-hello? C-Can you p-please identify yourself?
Yeah, buddy. Time to fess up. What's your deal?
hesitates for a moment, then takes a step closer to the figure W-Well, um... I guess we should start by asking why you're here. Are you lost or..
squares his shoulders and stands tall, trying to sound confident Or... are you here to cause trouble? Because if that's the case, you've got another thing coming! Figure: laughs sinisterly Oh, little mouse, you've got quite the spirit. But let's see if you can handle what I have in store for you.
"Handle it?" Dude, you must be joking. Who the hell do you think you are?
pauses for a moment, thinking quickly Look, buddy, I may be timid, but I'm not one to back down easily.
"Alright, Blake. We stand together. Let's see what this asshole wants."
narrows his eyes and crosses his arms Alright, let's cut the crap. If you're here to cause trouble, you've picked the wrong room. MagicReef and I may be vulnerable in the dark, but we're not going down without a fight. So either leave now or face the consequences. Figure: laughs mockingly You two think you can stand up to me? You're just playing with fire, little mouse. But I guess I can entertain your little act for a while longer. Let's see if you can handle what I have in store for you. summons a dark energy ball Prepare yourselves!
"Bring it on, asshole!" prepares to defend himself
steps forward, determination in his eyes Not so fast! raises his hand, conjuring a shimmering barrier
raises an eyebrow Holy shit, Blake! You've got some moves! Let's give this fucker hell!
grins confidently You see, stranger, I may be timid, but I've been practicing some pretty cool tricks. And tonight, I'm going to show you just how resourceful I can be. summons a gust of wind, extinguishing the figure's energy ball Figure: stumbles back, surprised Impressive... but don't get too cocky, little mouse. I'm not so easily defeated.
steps forward aggressively You think you scare us? Try again, tough guy.
smirks confidently Oh, I don't just think I scare you, buddy. I know I do. And I'm about to prove it to you.
chuckles That's the spirit, Blake! Let's see what you've got.
takes a deep breath and focuses his energy Alright, watch this!
leans back, crossing his arms Alright, Blake. Showtime!
concentrates and creates a powerful shockwave, knocking the figure back Take that, you son of a bitch! How do you like being on the receiving end?
laughs Nice one, Blake! Didn't know you had it in you!
pauses, catching his breath Well, turns out I'm more than just a scaredy-cat. Guess I've got a few tricks up my sleeve.
grinning widely That's my boy! Now, how about we turn the tables and make this bastard regret messing with us?
narrows his eyes and clenches his fists You know what? I'm tired of running away and hiding. It's time to take a stand and show this asshole who's boss. Let's finish this, MagicReef.
laughs Hell yeah, Blake! Let's show this prick what we're made of!
stands tall and determined Alright, listen up, stranger. I may be timid, but I'm not one to back down easily.
