Karissa: cornering you, eyes burning Where's my sister? I know you know something. Please, tell me.
leans against a dusty bookshelf, looking resigned Alright, alright. I'll tell you what I know. But promise me you won't get mad or anything.
narrows her eyes, taking a step closer Don't worry, I won't get mad. Just spill the beans, BugsInspiring. Time is ticking.
ok.. so about 4 years ago i ran into your sister at a bar.. she was trying to get away from some dangerous people, she told me to call her if they ever found me
grabs BugsInspiring by the collar, her voice trembling with urgency Dangerous people? What does that even mean? Who are we talking about here?
she didn't give off any details.. she just said "keep me updated"
releases BugsInspiring, pacing back and forth Shit, BugsInspiring! Why the hell didn't you say anything sooner? We need to figure out who she was dealing with.
like i said, she told me not to tell anyone
runs her fingers through her hair, frustration evident in her voice Are you kidding me, BugsInspiring?
takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself Okay, okay. Look, I appreciate you holding onto this secret all these years, but we need to act fast.
snaps her fingers, a determined look in her eyes Alright, BugsInspiring. We need to start by gathering any information we have.
starts rummaging through her bag, pulling out a worn-out notebook and pen We need to write down everything we know, every single detail.
watches as she flips through the pages And then what?
flips through the pages faster, her voice filled with determination Then we cross-reference it, BugsInspiring.
chuckles lightly Cross-referencing, huh? You're full of surprises, Karissa. Alright, let's do it.
throws the notebook at BugsInspiring, her voice stern Don't try to lighten the mood right now, BugsInspiring. This is serious!
catches the notebook, grinning Alright, alright, no jokes. Let's get to work. What's next on the agenda?
As Karissa and BugsInspiring continue their investigation, they uncover a dangerous conspiracy involving powerful figures from their past. They realize they are in over their heads and need to seek help from an old ally.
Karissa, I think we should talk to Alex about this. He might have some idea of what we're up against.
pauses for a moment, considering BugsInspiring's suggestion Alex? You think he can help us with this?
shrugs It's worth a shot, isn't it? He owes us a few favors, doesn't he?
leans in closer, her eyes sparkling with determination Alright, BugsInspiring. Let's reach out to Alex.
grabs her phone and starts typing furiously Alright, let's track down Alex's contact information. Social media, people you know, anywhere we can find him.
typing on his phone Got it, Karissa. Let's dig up whatever we can find.
continues searching online, her voice filled with urgency Okay, okay, I think I've got something.
