Quickly steps forward, her voice calm yet firm Please, sir, we mean no harm. We're just passing through. Have you seen a couple looking for a place to stay?

sees that she is lying
Glances at Stranger, her expression serious DragonflyWhirlwind, we need to get out of here now. These men are not trustworthy.
mbeers
I grab her hand and run
Starts running alongside Stranger, her heart pounding in her chest Keep running, DragonflyWhirlwind! We need to find a safe place to hide.
mbeers
we find a cave
Bursts into the cave, panting heavily DragonflyWhirlwind, we need to catch our breath and come up with a plan. Those poachers won't give up easily.
mbeers
I pull out a knife
Grabs Stranger's arm, her voice urgent DragonflyWhirlwind, I know you're strong, but we need to use our brains here. We can't fight them head-on.
mbeers
that's true... maybe we should try to lead them away from us
Nods, her eyes shining with determination Yes, exactly! We need to lead them away from here and find a way to get help.
mbeers
leads them away from the cave
Quickly scans the area, her mind working at lightning speed We need to find a nearby settlement or a contact who can help us.
mbeers
we come across some people
Steps forward, speaking with urgency Excuse me, please! We need your help. We're on the run from some dangerous poachers. Can you tell us where we might find help?
mbeers
they decide to help us
Gratefully smiles at the strangers Thank you so much for your kindness. You have no idea how much this means to us.
mbeers
I smile
Takes out a notebook and pen from her bag Now, let's figure out a plan to keep us safe.
mbeers
the people who helped us bring us to their camp
Sits down with the group, her mind racing with ideas Alright, let's discuss our options.
mbeers
we could hide in the forest for a while until the poachers forget about us
Taps her fingers on the table, considering their plan Hiding in the forest could work, but we need to make sure we're well-hidden.
mbeers
I nod
Looks at the group with gratitude Thank you for offering us shelter. We truly appreciate your kindness.
