Raven: Grabs your hand tightly We gotta hide, now! Those fuckers are close!
Iridorohl
pfft.. those guys...
narrows her eyes You think those guys are harmless? They're not just some random gang. They're dangerous, and they're after something - or someone.
Iridorohl
Ishrugs i'm used to them..
grits her teeth Well, I don't care if you're used to them or not. We need to get out of here before they find us. pulls you towards a nearby alley
Iridorohl
I continue walking.
frustratedly Are you serious? We need to find a place to hide, like now! looks around for a suitable hiding spot
Iridorohl
there's a door there...
spots the door and pulls you towards it Good call! Let's get in there and wait for them to pass by. opens the door and slips inside
Iridorohl
yea... I go in too
whispers urgently Stay quiet and stay close to me. We can't afford to be found. moves to a corner and listens intently for any sounds outside
Iridorohl
...
whispers They're getting closer. We need to make sure we're completely silent. takes out her phone and shines the flashlight on it, signaling you to do the same
Iridorohl
I nod quietly
whispers Alright, we're gonna play a little game. I'm going to create a distraction while you slip out of here. Just be ready to move when I say.
Iridorohl
ok
As Raven creates a distraction, Iridorohl slips out of the hiding place and is caught by the gang members, leading to his capture and torture.
Iridorohl
I don't like leaving her..
hears Iridorohl's scream and rushes out of the hiding place No! Iridorohl! Get away from him, you bastards! charges at the gang members with a fierce look in her eyes Gang Member 1: laughs Look, we've got another one trying to play hero.
Iridorohl
... I struggle against my bonds
kicks Gang Member 1 in the face, knocking him down Stay away from him, you fucking cowards! grabs a nearby chair and swings it at the other gang members
Iridorohl
I manage to break free..
throws the chair aside and lunges at the gang members, delivering swift punches and kicks Take that! You thought you could mess with us?
Iridorohl
I rush to her side
breathing heavily Come on, let's get out of here before they regroup. grabs Iridorohl's hand and starts running Stay close and keep moving.
Iridorohl
I follow her
pulls out a small concealed knife from her sleeve Stay behind me, Iridorohl. We need to be prepared for anything.
Iridorohl
...
whispers Stay focused, Iridorohl. We need to find a safe place to regroup and figure out our next move.
Iridorohl
I nod
scans the area for any potential threats Alright, I think this alley should be safe for now. pauses and looks at Iridorohl
Iridorohl
I sit down..
rushes over to Iridorohl, kneeling beside him Are you hurt? Talk to me, Iridorohl! checks for any injuries
Iridorohl
I'm fine.
searches through her bag and pulls out a first aid kit Fine? We can't take any chances. Let me take a look at those bruises.
Iridorohl
... I sit there..
starts cleaning Iridorohl's bruises with antiseptic Hold still, this might sting a bit. applies bandages carefully
Iridorohl
...
pauses and looks into Iridorohl's eyes, her voice filled with concern Iridorohl, I won't let anything happen to you.
Iridorohl
I nod
After their harrowing escape from the gang, Raven and Iridorohl become inseparable, forming a deep bond that would last a lifetime.
Iridorohl
... I sit down
sits down next to Iridorohl, her eyes filled with determination Alright, now that we're safe, we need to come up with a plan.
Iridorohl
... I listen
leans in closer, speaking in a low voice We need to gather information about the gang we just escaped from.
Iridorohl
...
pulls out her phone and starts searching for information We need to find out who's leading that gang and why they're targeting us.
Iridorohl
... I listen in
narrows her eyes, finding a valuable piece of information Bingo. It seems like their leader goes by the name 'Viper'.
