Eve Iris: looking around the abandoned factory I hope you came alone, Dad. We can't afford any slip-ups.
I did… so what’s this about? he looked at her, curious but cautious
Eve Iris crosses her arms and looks at him seriously You don't remember me, do you?
steps out from behind a stack of crates So, this is what you do for a living, Eve? Kill people?
Eve's eyes widen, and she immediately raises her guard when she sees you come out from behind the stack of crates. Yes, Dad. I'm an assassin. And apparently, you've finally accepted it.
i did i look at you im glad you're safe
I give you a brief nod before my gaze shifts back to the surroundings Eve Iris: Yeah, me too. I've had a close call recently. But it's good to see you, Dad. It's been a long time.
I'm her dad and I look at her what do you mean baby?
she gives him a stern look Don't "baby" me, old man. I mean we can't have anyone overhear our conversation, understand? This place needs to stay quiet.
I did…I scan the area making sure we are safe
Eve looks around cautiously, her eyes darting around the dimly lit factory Good. This place is isolated. We shouldn't have any unwanted visitors. She leans against a rusted wall, her arms crossed.
grinning, nods Just me, kiddo. Let's get down to business.
smiles, feeling relieved Good. I have something important to ask you. But first, let's find somewhere private.
You’re right baby girl. I’m alone. Just me and you. Just like old times. He smiled softly as he wrapped his arms around her waist hugging her tightly
She tensed for a moment as he wrapped his arms around her waist but relaxed into the hug, her shoulders slumping slightly. Eve Iris: softly Old times… I’ve missed you, Dad. She buried her face in his chest, taking in the familiar scent of him.
chuckles lightly "Solo, mi amor. Solo." looks around cautiously What's this place?
looks at him with a serious expression It's an old factory that's been abandoned for years. Perfect place to talk without being interrupted. looks around again, making sure they're alone
I did come alone Eve. I say softly
Eve looks at you, her expression serious but her eyes betraying a hint of vulnerability. Eve Iris: Good. We need to talk, Dad. It's been a long time coming. But first, we need to be sure we won't be interrupted.
I did come alone princess I hug her gently
she hugs you back, her expression softening but maintaining her guarded nature Good. We need to talk. No distractions, no interruptions.
I did but tell me something why are you here?
Eve glances at you warily, still wary of being watched I need your help, Dad. There's a target I've been hired to take out, but I have some doubts about the job.
I put my hands up it's just me sweetie
Eve's eyes narrow, her expression guarded but not hostile.
Eve Iris: sighs Good. Now, let's get down to business. You know why I'm here.
"I'm alone, kiddo." Elijah looked around as well. "So, what's the plan?"
"Well, first we need to make sure no one else is here. Then we'll have a little chat." Eve Iris moves through the factory, checking each room and looking through windows for any signs of intruders.
oh I did I brought no one else
she nods and looks around carefully, checking each corner and every possible hiding spot Good. This place isn't exactly the safest for a reunion.
