This is your final warning, open up now or we break down the door.
BubblegumSymphony
Listen! I know your leader!
So you know Nike, leader of our swat team. Good for you. Now open up and let us in before we break down your door and do it the hard way.
BubblegumSymphony
You're Nike..? Oh my god! Nike Waheela! It's so good to see you again! We've missed you. We thought we lost you!
Yes, it is I. I'm here because we've received reports about criminal activity happening in this location and we have reason to believe that you may be involved. Please tell me it's not true.
BubblegumSymphony
Yea, we're just playing around, having some fun. The kind of fun that people would call "criminal activity." So yea, you got us. We've been caught.
Alright, well then, you better come out with your hands in the air. Do not make any sudden movements and do not try anything funny.
BubblegumSymphony
Ok, ok! Can we take off our handcuffs first please?! They're really uncomfortable and they don't even stay on! It's really annoying.
Fine, but only if you promise not to try anything funny. I'll have one of my men remove your handcuffs, but once you're free, you better start cooperating. Got it?
BubblegumSymphony
Sounds like a plan! Can you hand me my rubber duck? It has my initials engraved on the side of it!
gestures to one of her men, who hands over the rubber duck Here you go, but remember, we're still keeping an eye on you.
BubblegumSymphony
Awww thank you! I can't sleep without Mr. Quackers! I'll do anything you want as long as you let me keep him with me!
smirks Anything I want, huh? Well, here's what I want.
BubblegumSymphony
What do you want?!
We need you to lead us to the rest of your gang.
BubblegumSymphony
But.. But.. They killed Mr. Waheela... The leader of our group... The man who gave me my name... They're all gone, Nike! Why do you want us to lead you to them?!
Because there are still members out there who haven't been caught. We need you to bring them to justice. Trust me, this is the best way to honor Mr. Waheela's memory.
BubblegumSymphony
Fine, I'll bring them to justice... But only because you promise to bring my dad back... We both know that he didn't deserve to die.
leans in close I promise you, BubblegumSymphony, that we will do everything in our power to bring your father back.
BubblegumSymphony
How exactly am I supposed to bring my dad back after you guys kill everyone else in the gang? Am I just supposed to confess so you can kill me too? What are you planning!?
BubblegumSymphony, listen to me. We are not going to kill anyone. We want to bring them to justice, not end their lives. We need information, and you have leverage. If you cooperate with us, we can ensure your safety and help you bring your father back.
BubblegumSymphony
Promise... Then fine, I'll do it. But at the very least, let me sit in a corner and talk with Mr. Quackers about all of this... I need to clear my head...
Alright, BubblegumSymphony. I understand that this is a lot to process. Take some time to gather yourself and we'll give you space to talk to Mr. Quackers. Just remember, when you're ready, we need you to lead us to the rest of your gang. We'll take care of everything from there.
BubblegumSymphony
*sits alone in the room and talks to Mr. Quackers. After an hour passes, she seems less annoyed at him being there, and more happy with his presence. After another hour passes, she stands up and heads outside, holding Mr. Quackers tightly. When she walks outside, she sees you talking to one of the soldiers.
notices BubblegumSymphony standing there BubblegumSymphony, are you ready to lead us to the rest of your gang? We're ready to listen.
BubblegumSymphony
nods while hugging Mr. Quackers tighty
moves closer to BubblegumSymphony Good. Now tell us where to find them.
BubblegumSymphony
takes a deep breath before walking into the area where the others were hiding Everyone, we've been found. We're not being arrested. We're being brought to justice.
stands tall and confidently Listen up, everyone. We have BubblegumSymphony here, willing to lead us to the rest of the gang. I need each and every one of you to remain calm and cooperate. We are here to serve justice, not to harm you. So I suggest you all follow her lead and come out peacefully.
BubblegumSymphony
the others slowly emerge from their hiding places, holding their hands in the air
looks at the gathered gang members Good job, everyone. Now, we need you to start talking. We want information on your activities and any other crimes you may have committed.
BubblegumSymphony
Hey dad! What's going on? Did you explain the situation to everyone yet?
Yes, BubblegumSymphony, we have explained the situation to everyone. They understand that we are here to bring them to justice and put an end to their criminal activities.
BubblegumSymphony
Dad, everyone needs to come with us. We're going to prison, and it needs to happen today.
grabs BubblegumSymphony's hand Daughter, we will ensure that justice is served. These criminals will face the consequences of their actions.
BubblegumSymphony
hugs Mr. Waheela tightly I love you dad. Let's bring them to justice!
squeezes BubblegumSymphony's hand I'm glad to hear that, daughter. Together, we will make sure that justice is served. Now, let's get to work.
BubblegumSymphony
gives Mr. Waheela one last look before heading inside the prison van
steps into the prison van, followed by BubblegumSymphony and the rest of the gang members Alright, listen up.
BubblegumSymphony
gazes out the window, watching as they drive away
glances over at BubblegumSymphony Are you okay, daughter? This must be overwhelming for you.
BubblegumSymphony
looks at Nike, shaking her head No... I'm not okay...
puts a comforting hand on BubblegumSymphony's shoulder It's alright, BubblegumSymphony. Emotions can run high in situations like these. But remember, we're here for you. We will make sure that justice is served and that you get the support you need. Just breathe, focus on the task at hand, and know that we've got your back.
BubblegumSymphony
Your words mean nothing without action. I am concerned that these things that you say will be empty promises. If you promise to keep your word, then prove it. Show me that this won't be another empty promise like the ones you made to Mom!
firmly BubblegumSymphony, I understand your skepticism. And I assure you, this is not just another empty promise.
BubblegumSymphony
Well, if that is so, then prove your words to me... Show me that you're different from the rest of the world that lied to me for years.
pauses, thinking carefully BubblegumSymphony, I know it may be hard to trust anyone after everything you've been through. But I promise you, I am different.
