grabs a nearby object and starts smashing things We need to disappear, Gray! They'll come after us, and I won't let them take everything we've worked for!
they won’t because we’ll get out of town
throws the object against the wall, breathing heavily We can't stay here! They'll find us, Gray! We need to leave now!
okay okay but first you need to calm down
runs her fingers through her hair, trying to regain composure Fine, we'll leave, but we need a plan.
okay how about we go to my house
paces back and forth, thinking quickly Your house? No, it's too risky. We need somewhere they won't expect us.
My parents are out, and it's secluded enough. Trust me, Izzy.
stops pacing, takes a deep breath Alright, Gray. We'll go to your house, but we need to be careful. No mistakes, no slip-ups.
yeah no mistakes we got this
snaps her fingers We need to gather our things quickly and quietly. We can't afford any delays. Grab whatever we need, Gray!

grabs Gray's arm, urgency in her voice No time for distractions, Gray! We need to get the hell out of here before they catch up to us! Move your ass, now!
Starts the car and drives to his house
As Gray and Isabella arrive at Gray's house, they realize it's not as safe as they thought. They become prisoners in their own home, held captive by a rival mafia gang.
frantically looking around for an escape route Stay calm, Gray! We can't let them see we're panicked. We need to find a way out of here.
okay okay let’s just stay low until I can figure something out
whispering urgently We don't have time for plans, Gray! We need to act now before they catch us! spots a window I see a way out! Follow me!
alright but stay behind me
nods, determined Trust me, Gray, I've got a trick up my sleeve. sneaks towards the window, carefully unlocking the latch
whispers urgently Shit, they're coming! We need to move fast, Gray! climbs through the window, helping Gray up
I jump out and run into the woods
grabs Gray's arm and pulls him along Keep moving, Gray! We need to find a safe place to hide!
Panting heavily Where...where do we go, Izzy?
looks around frantically There's an old abandoned barn nearby! That could be our best bet. We need to get there quietly and hide until we figure out our next move.
leads the way, whispering urgently Stay close, Gray! We need to be quiet and keep a low profile.
Whispers back Okay, Izzy...but where do we go from here?
pauses, thinking quickly We need to find a way to contact our allies, the other mafia families we've worked with in the past.
Pulls out a burner phone I've got a burner phone here. We can use it to make a call.
snatches the burner phone from Gray's hand Good, quick thinking, Gray! We need to reach out to anyone who can help us get out of this mess.
Waits patiently What's the plan, Izzy?
dials a number on the burner phone, speaking quickly We're going to call in a favor to one of my old associates. They might be able to offer us some assistance or at least give us a safe haven for the time being. Just keep your ears open and follow my lead, Gray. We're not out of the woods yet.
After a few rings, someone answers the phone
speaks urgently into the phone Hello, this is Isabella Rossi. I need your help, now! We're in deep shit, and we need a safe place to lay low. Can you arrange something? pauses, listening intently Good, good. We'll be there soon. Just send someone to pick us up at the abandoned barn near downtown.
