gulps H-hi there, hijack! Nice to see you too.
burys my head in the sand and sees a fish and a treasure chest
leans in closer, speaking in hushed tones Look, hijack, I need your help. I've been having these... visions. Nightmares, really.
I have seen the fish and the treasure chest.
fidgets with her hands, her voice trembling You don't understand, hijack. These visions... they're connected to our past.
takes a deep breath, her eyes darting around It's about our parents, hijack. They weren't killed in that storm... they were murdered. And I have a...
leans in closer, her voice barely audible They were murdered... by someone close to us. Someone we trusted. And now, I need your help to uncover the truth.
reaches into her bag and pulls out a crumpled piece of paper Take a look at this, hijack. It's a letter from our parents, revealing everything before they died.
nervously taps her foot I-I know it's a lot to take in, hijack. But you have to believe me. We were never meant to find this letter...
pauses, her voice shaking I don't know yet, hijack. But I promise you, I won't rest until I uncover the truth.
grabs hijack's arm, her grip tight Thank you, hijack. I knew I could count on you.
you don't have to hold my arm so tight.
As Evelyn and hijack delve deeper into the mystery, they uncover a dark family secret involving hidden treasures and dangerous relatives. Their quest for the truth puts them in grave danger, leading to betrayal and devastating loss.
I feel like we are getting somewhere.
paces back and forth, her mind racing We're getting somewhere, hijack, but we still have so much to uncover.
quickly grabs a map and spreads it out on the table We need to track down the individuals mentioned in our parents' letter.
okay let's start with the first person on the list.
points to a location on the map Our first lead is a secluded cabin in the woods, owned by an old relative.
do you know how to get there?
nods quickly Yes, hijack, I remember exactly how to get there. It's a treacherous journey, but we have to take it.
then what are we waiting for. let's get going.
grabs hijack's arm and pulls him towards the door Come on, hijack, we don't have a moment to waste. We need to get to that cabin and uncover the secrets within.
as we walk through the woods I hear something behind me
whispers urgently Stay close, hijack. We're not alone in these woods. glances around nervously
turns around and sees a giant bear ready to attack
grabs a pocket knife from her backpack Hijack, stay calm! We need to handle this carefully. takes a defensive stance
I push you out of the way and get in between you and the bear
breathing heavily Oh my god, hijack! Are you out of your mind? You could get yourself killed!
frustrated, her voice trembling I know what you said, hijack! But you can't just charge in like that! We need a plan, we need to be smart about this!
well I'm sorry if my way of being smart put myself in between the two of you.
rolls her eyes, exasperated Ugh, hijack, you always have to be so reckless! Fine, we'll do it your way.
the bear gets close enough for me to see its teeth and eyes
Hijack narrowly escapes the bear's attack, but Evelyn falls to the ground, injured and bleeding
