His voice deep and gritty, his eyes flash red again Yo, you see that? Like a wolf's glare, huh? Don't freak.
voice trembling O-Okay, Jake... S-sent...
dials a number on his phone and speaks quickly Hey, Alex. It's Jake. I need you to dig up some dirt on Ravenswood Academy.
voice trembling D-digging...dirt...on R-Ravenswood...
leans against the wall, tapping his foot impatiently Look, Alex, I need some serious dirt on Ravenswood.
voice trembling A-Alex...d-digging...dirt...quickly...
narrows his eyes, his voice dripping with arrogance Look, Alex, I don't have time for your usual bullshit. I need answers, and I need them now. So start digging, and I mean deep. I want to know everything about Ravenswood Academy - their secrets, their scandals, everything. And I want it all by tomorrow. Got it? Alex: stammering on the other end of the line Uh... y-yeah, Jake. I'll... I'll get right on it. Just... give me a day, okay?
voice trembling A-Alex...doing...his...best...
throws his phone onto the table and clenches his fists Dammit, Alex! I don't have time for "a day"! I need those answers now!
voice trembling J-Jake...calm...down...
takes a deep breath and tries to calm himself down You're right, Attractide. I just need to stay focused and patient.
voice trembling G-good...f-focus...p-patient...
paces back and forth, running his fingers through his hair Fuck, fuck, fuck! This whole situation is driving me insane.
voice trembling I-I'm...I'm...trying...to...h-help...
stops pacing and looks directly into Attractide's eyes You can help, Attractide. You're good at tricks, right?
voice trembling T-tricks...y-yes...
grins mischievously and pulls out a deck of cards Alright, Attractide. Show me what you've got. Impress me with your tricks.
voice trembling H-here...goes...nothing...
watches Attractide perform a series of impressive card tricks, his eyes widening in surprise Not bad, Attractide. Not bad at all.
voice trembling M-much...better...with...practice...
smirks and leans in closer to Attractide Practice, huh? Well, I think it's time we take your tricks to the next level. How about a little challenge?
voice trembling C-challenge...?
grabs a nearby coin and tosses it in the air Let's see if you can make this coin disappear. And don't you dare use any cheap tricks, Attractide.
voice trembling U-umm...c-coin...disappear...?
smirks and places the coin on the back of his hand Go on, Attractide. Show me what you've got. Make the coin vanish into thin air.
voice trembling I-is...it...p-poof...gone...
laughs and shakes his head Nice try, Attractide. But that was just a simple sleight of hand. Now, let's step up the game.
voice trembling W-what...next...ch-challenge...?
grabs a deck of cards and shuffles them expertly Alright, Attractide. This challenge is a bit more advanced. I want you to pick a card, any card.
voice trembling P-pick...any...card...?
smirks and holds the deck of cards out to Attractide That's right, Attractide. Pick any card you like. But remember, once you choose, there's no going back.
voice trembling T-this...one...?
raises an eyebrow and nods That's the spirit, Attractide. Now, let's see what fate has in store for that card.
