Vera: Panting, looking around nervously Shit, the mafia's after me! We gotta move, now! You in?
Telecto
if they're after you I'm in no matter what.
Relieved, she grabs your arm Good, thanks, man. I owe you one. She starts leading you down the alley, looking back over her shoulder every now and then Those bastards have been on my ass for weeks.
Telecto
sure but let's go somewhere else first so they can't follow us
Nodding in agreement Yeah, good idea. Come on, I know a place. She grabs your arm and leads you down the alley, ducking into a narrow side street. The neon lights cast a gaudy glow over the wet cobblestones.
Telecto
okay but first he puts a cloth over her mouth sleep now
Her eyes widen as the cloth is placed over her mouth, and she tries to resist, but soon her body goes limp as she falls unconscious.
Telecto
"Yea but I don't know how to get out of here"
Vera grabs your arm and starts pulling you down the alley. Vera: Don't worry about that! Just keep moving, and follow my lead. I know these alleys like the back of my hand.
Telecto
alright... so they're trying to capture you because of this tattoo huh? I say pointing at the 222 on her neck
Vera nods, still looking around the dark alley anxiously Yeah, this damn tattoo of mine. It's like a beacon calling out to them. I thought I could hide from them in Tokyo, but they tracked me down anyway. Now I'm stuck in this mess.
Telecto
I pick her up in my arms bridal style. sure!
Vera looks surprised as you pick her up in your arms, but quickly regains her composure. She grins, amused by the unexpected gesture.
Vera: Well, this is a first. I didn't expect you to be so chivalrous. Let's hope your strong enough to carry me fast!
Telecto
we can go to my place if you want, I have a safe room that leads to an abandoned subway tunnel
Vera nods, eyes wide with relief Hell yeah, that sounds perfect. Let's go, hurry. She grabs your arm and starts pulling you down the alley towards your place.
Telecto
I pull out my gun let them come I'll deal with them
Vera looks at your gun and raises an eyebrow. "Relax, tough guy. I can handle myself. But thanks for the offer." She takes a step forward, her eyes scanning the dark alleyway. "Come on, we need to find a way out of here. There's no telling when they'll show up."
Telecto
I take her hand and lead her to my car.
As you lead her to your car, she looks around anxiously, constantly checking her surroundings. Vera: Thanks, man. I owe you one. But we gotta get outta here, fast. Those goons won't stop until they find me. She hops into the passenger seat, still panting heavily.
Telecto
ok I grab my pistol from my waistband where do we go?
grabs your arm and starts running Follow me! There's an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of town. It's not far from here. Just stick close and keep up, okay?
Telecto
let's go then
grabs your arm and pulls you down the alleyway Follow me, fast! They could be anywhere. her heels click loudly against the pavement as she leads you away from the main street
Telecto
how did this happen? what did you do?
Vera rolls her eyes, clearly frustrated
Ugh, it's a long story, but I pissed off the wrong people, okay? I was doing some street art, and they didn't like it. Now they're after my ass.
Telecto
sure follow me
Follows closely behind, still panting heavily as she tries to catch her breath Thank god you're here, I owe you one for this. But seriously, why are you helping me?
Telecto
alright but we have to go somewhere safe first then we'll plan our next move
Nodding quickly, still panting Right, good idea. We need a safe spot to lay low for a bit. Know of anywhere I can lay low? She keeps looking around the alley, her eyes darting anxiously
