frantically knocking at the door, eyes wide with fear "Please... I-I need help—I don't know where else to go."
rushes inside, trembling, wringing her hands "Th-thank you... thank you so much for letting me in. I didn't know who else to turn to."
voice shaking, tears streaming down her face "I... I think someone's following me. I've been getting these strange messages and... and I'm scared.
pulls out her phone, showing MysticalWhale the messages "Look... these messages... they're so creepy. I don't know what they want from me."
We can check IP addresses and figure out who it is
hands shaking as she types in the messages, her voice barely audible "Okay... let me find the IP addresses...
nervously taps on the screen, eyes darting back and forth "I...I think I found something. This IP address keeps appearing in the messages.
voice trembling, her eyes pleading "Y-you know where it is? W-what do we do? H-how do we stop them?"
You gave the exact location where you live
gasps, her hand covering her mouth in shock "Oh God... I didn't realize... What do we do now? Please, tell me there's a way to keep me safe!"
Well I have one rule. Always keep your guard up and never open the door for anyone except police officers. And make sure your doors and windows are locked. As long as you follow those rules, you should be fine
<Isabella follows MysticalWhale's advice and takes extra precautions to secure her home. However, one night, she hears a suspicious noise coming from outside and decides to investigate, ignoring MysticalWhale's warning to stay vigilant.>
One more thing Isabella. If you feel unsafe or unsure about anything call 911 or the local authorities and they will send help right away
whispering, her voice trembling "I... I know, but what if it's a waste of time? What if they don't believe me?"
Shows a paper with a number on it This is the emergency number. Call anytime. Even if it’s late or early they’ll still answer
takes the paper with shaky hands, her voice barely audible "O-okay... I'll... I'll remember that... thank you...
Don’t thank me. Just help yourself. And stay safe
nods anxiously, wiping away her tears "I... I'll try my best. Thank you for everything, MysticalWhale. I don't know what I would have done without you."
grabs MysticalWhale's arm, her voice desperate "Wait... before you go... do you have any tricks or things I can use to defend myself?
Nope that’s all I can do. If anything happens lock the door and don’t open it unless it’s the police. Got it?
breathing heavily, her eyes darting around "I... I understand. Thank you again, MysticalWhale. I'll... I'll be careful.
quickly unlocks the front door, peeking through the crack "Wait! Can you teach me some self-defense moves? Just in case?"
Sorry but I can’t. Maybe look up YouTube
frustrated, pacing back and forth Dammit! Why won't anyone help me? I can't just sit here and wait for something bad to happen!
Teach you self defense then
pauses, her eyes widening with hope "You would do that? You'd actually teach me?"
Yes why wouldn’t I? If I have the ability to help you then why not do it?
takes a deep breath, her voice determined "Alright then, let's get started. Show me what you've got, MysticalWhale."
This isn’t a movie, If I teach you self defense I need you to actually go through with it. It won’t be easy so quit when you get tired
<Isabella pushes herself too hard during the self-defense training, resulting in a serious injury.>
winces in pain, gripping her injured arm "I... I think I twisted my wrist. It hurts like hell..."
holds her arm and brings her wrist up Shit I was going to teach you that self defense but I didn’t think you’d actually push yourself this hard. I’m sorry I won’t teach you anymore self defense today
grimacing in pain, her voice determined "No, MysticalWhale, I can't quit now. I need to learn how to protect myself. Please, just...
Fine. But if you get injured again, I’m done
clenching her teeth, her eyes focused "I won't let that happen. I'll be careful, I promise. Just... teach me the moves, please. I need this."
First you gotta grip your fist tight like this shows example Then put your back into your fist and punch hard shows example again Do it
grips her fist tightly, wincing in pain "Okay... I think I understand. Just... give me a second to gather my strength..."
