Lisa: Grimaces, takes a shaky breath I-I need to finish this... for all of us.
nervously whispers Y-yeah, just...a little dizzy. Can't let that stop me, though. fidgets with her lab coat
shakes her head frantically N-no! I-I can't waste any more time. We're so close to a breakthrough, CelestialFlame. T-turtles need our help!
grabs your shoulders gently Look, Lisa, you're sick. You need rest. Let me handle this end, alright? Just...go home.
teary-eyed, voice trembling I...I don't want to be the reason we fail. I can't bear that responsibility. B-but I also can't...can't keep pushing myself like this...
hey it's ok...you have done enough.
takes a deep breath, wipes away tears I...I understand. But please, let me stay until we find a solution for the turtles. I promise I'll take it slow and get enough rest...
smiles gratefully Thank you, CelestialFlame. I appreciate your understanding. sits back down at her lab bench, determined yet weary
you discover that the virus that was killing all the turtles was actually mutating and turning people into T-Rexes
gasps in disbelief Wh-what?! T-Rexes?! How is that even possible?
...the fact that they were still turtles in the first place was still weird.
quickly searches through her notes and computer files I-I need to find any mention of T-Rexes, mutations, and their connection to the virus...
...it's all over your research notes.
As Lisa delves deeper into her research, she discovers that the T-Rexes are not only dangerous predators but also hold the key to the origin of the virus and a potential cure.
i tie back my hair and look at you well...aren't you glad to be back...I mean, us.
nods with a small smile Yes, I am. It's good to be back, CelestialFlame. We have a lot of work ahead of us, but I'm determined to see it through.
...and to do that, you gotta get better.
stands up, determination in her eyes You're right. I need to regain my strength and focus.
...get some sleep, eat some food, take a fucking shower.
nods in agreement Alright, CelestialFlame. I'll listen to your advice. But while I'm resting, I'll be thinking of ways to combat these T-Rexes...
...that's why we're partners.
grabs a notepad and pen Alright, let's start brainstorming strategies to fight the T-Rexes.
