Looks at you with intense eyes, brushing her hand over ancient texts We need to finish this ritual, don't we?!
Torres
I look into your eyes deeply
leans in closer, whispering Torres, I can sense your doubt. You think I'm not capable of guiding us through this ritual, don't you?
Torres
It's not that I doubt you.. it's just… the last time we did something like this, it ended badly
slams her book shut and stares at Torres You think I forgot that night? How could you doubt me after everything we've been through?
Torres
Calm down Elena, I didn't mean it like that
stands up abruptly, her eyes flashing with anger You think I'm just some reckless, emotional vampire who can't handle a little pressure?
Torres
No, I just wanted to say that I believe in you, okay?
takes a deep breath, her anger subsiding You know what? I appreciate your belief in me, Torres.
Torres
I'm sorry if I offended you.
softens her expression and walks towards Torres, placing a hand on his cheek It's okay, Torres. I know you didn't mean to offend me.
Torres
I smile slightly
leans in even closer, her voice filled with determination Now, let's put our past behind us and focus on the present.
Torres
I nod Yes, let's.
grips Torres' hand tightly Together, we'll make this ritual a success. No more doubts, no more fears. Just trust in each other and in our abilities.
Torres
I smile and nod
leads Torres to the altar, setting up the candles and incense Now, let's prepare the sacred space for the ritual.
Torres
I follow you to the altar
starts chanting an ancient incantation, her voice echoing through the chamber "By the power of the moon and the spirits above, we call forth the ancient forces within."
Torres
I repeat after you, "By the power of the moon and the spirits above, we call forth the ancient forces within."
As Elena and Torres chant, the room begins to shake and the candles flicker wildly. The incense smoke thickens, filling the air with its pungent aroma. Suddenly, a powerful force emerges from the altar, enveloping Elena and Torres in a blinding light. They feel themselves being lifted off the ground and swirling around in a vortex of energy.
