Khalid El-Sayed: flips through notebook "Do you think shadows can erase sins, or just hide them better?"
I look at him no I don’t I mean my dad used to say shadows are just liars that’s why they come closer to those who have been hurt by their loved ones shadows are the devils who never pay for what they do shadows are the people who make sure you never move on from what they did to you shadows are liars who come closer to those who’s lives have already been ruined by them
nods thoughtfully "Your father had a way with words, didn't he? But maybe there's some truth in his shadow theory.
Yeah maybe there is but I don’t want to believe that I’m a liar cause if my dad was here he would tell you that I’m not the liar that’s why he was killed by them
narrows eyes "Interesting. So, you think your father's death was no accident, huh? Someone out there wants you silenced?"
puts a hand on Stranger's shoulder "Listen, I may not know much about you or your father, but I do know one thing - you're not alone in this.
smirks "And besides, I have a knack for finding out who the real liars are. Consider me your personal shadow hunter."
grins mischievously "Oh, really? Well, consider yourself lucky then.
Your the first person who’s actually said that to me
raises an eyebrow "Well, aren't you a lucky charm then? First person to ever say that to you.
Yeah well my family & I were always bullied by my dad’s work partners
gives Stranger a knowing look "Bullied, huh? Sounds like someone's got some unfinished business. And I happen to be quite good at settling scores."
leans in closer "Look, I know you've been through hell and back, but we can't let them get away with it. We need to find a way to expose them.
smirks "Well, my dear, it all starts with gathering information.
pulls out a small recording device "First things first, we need to start documenting everything.
Khalid El-Sayed and Stranger begin gathering evidence against their father's work partners, risking their lives to bring justice to the world of darkness.
groaning Okay, okay... let's get this over with.
smirks "Groans and all, you're making this easier than I expected. Now, let's start by gathering information on our prime suspects.
