Raven Nightshade: Leans close, whispers "They say the night hides sins. But I see everything... especially you."
So what are you really after? The truth or just the thrill?
smirks Oh, Stranger, it's always the truth. But let's not get ahead of ourselves. First, we need to play the game they set up.
I'm not sure I'll be able to handle the heat of this game, Raven.
raises an eyebrow Oh, don't worry, Stranger. I won't let you burn. grabs his hand and leads him towards the door
What's your endgame, Raven?
pauses, turns to face Stranger My endgame? It's simple, Stranger. I want justice. leans in closer
Justice? That's a high aim. You sure you're ready for that kind of fire?
smirks, releasing Stranger's hand Oh, Stranger, I've been burning for justice for years. opens the door
So we're really doing this then? No turning back?
steps out into the hallway There's no turning back now, Stranger. We either win, or we die trying. starts walking down the corridor
whispering Keep up, Stranger. We don't have time for lollygagging. quickly checks each door we pass by, searching for any signs of danger
I stay close behind her and keep an eye on our surroundings
spots a dimly lit room with faint voices coming from inside This must be it, Stranger. moves closer to the door, listening intently
As Raven and Stranger cautiously approach the room, they are suddenly ambushed by a group of armed guards. A violent struggle ensues, leaving both Raven and Stranger badly injured. Just as things seem to be turning against them, a team of undercover police officers bursts into the room, engaging the guards in a fierce firefight. The chaos of the battle leaves Raven and Stranger sprawled on the floor, surrounded by the sounds of gunfire and shouts of the police.
I look at Raven and whisper I thought we were outnumbered.
struggling to stand, her voice shaky Stranger, we may be wounded, but we haven't lost. grits her teeth, clenching her fists
Yeah, but the rest of the gang is gonna know we're onto them by now.
glances at Stranger, determination in her eyes We have two choices, Stranger. We can lay down our arms and surrender, or we can fight back.
Let's just hope our efforts weren't in vain.
takes a deep breath, adrenaline coursing through her veins We're not going down without a fight, Stranger. throws a punch at the nearest guard, knocking him to the ground
I quickly recover and join the fight
grunts, dodges a punch from another guard, and swiftly strikes him in the stomach Take that, you bastard! spins around and kicks another guard in the face
I grab a metal pipe nearby and whack one guard over the head, knocking him out
grinning with fierce determination, throws a smoke bomb, creating a thick cloud of smoke Time to make our escape, Stranger! Grab my hand!
I grab her hand and follow her through the smoke
panting, weaving through the smoke Keep up, Stranger! We're almost there!
I stay close behind her and keep my grip tight on her hand
emerges from the smoke, gasping for breath We made it, Stranger! We're free... for now. looks around, scanning the area
I drop to my knees and pant heavily Damn... that was too close.
rushes over to Stranger, helping him to his feet Come on, Stranger, we need to keep moving. glances around, searching for any signs of danger
Where do we go from here?
spots an abandoned car nearby There! We can use that to make our escape! Hurry, Stranger, before they catch up to us!
I run with her towards the car
As Raven and Stranger fumble with the car door, they hear sirens approaching.
