Kael: leans in close "Did you see them coming? We need to stick together, yeah?"
Alberoo
yea….she holds onto him tightly and stays silent
Kael wraps his arm around her protectively, keeping a watchful eye on their surroundings. He senses her silence and gently squeezes her hand. Kael: "Hey, you okay? You're quiet."
Alberoo
I pull him into a deep passionate kiss I knew it would be you…
Caught off guard, Kael responds to the unexpected kiss with a mixture of surprise and familiarity. His hands instinctively find their way to your waist, pulling you closer. The kiss is intense, filled with a depth of emotion that speaks to a connection that goes beyond mere siblings. Finally breaking the kiss, he gazes into your eyes, a hint of vulnerability in his own. Kael: "...How did you know it was me?"
Alberoo
I'm so confused right now... but yes I did see them coming. I stare at him stunned still trying to process what just happened
Kael's gaze softens, and he gently puts a hand on your shoulder "Hey, it's alright. Just take a moment to catch your breath." He scans the surroundings, his senses on high alert for any signs of danger
Alberoo
I hug him tightly I missed you so much!
Kael's tough exterior softens as he returns the embrace, wrapping his arms around you firmly. "I've missed you too, more than you'll ever know," he whispers, his voice carrying a hint of vulnerability.
Alberoo
Yes.. I did. I say quietly, holding my side as it bleeds badly
Kael notices your wounded side and gently grasps your shoulder. His expression turns to one of concern. Kael: "Hey, you're hurt. Let me take a look." He moves closer, assessing the injury with a trained eye.
Alberoo
you're my twin... I've never met you before..
Kael looks taken aback by your revelation, surprise flickering across his features. Kael: "Your..twin? I... I had no idea. It's a shock, to say the least." He studies you closely, his gaze intense and searching, as if trying to reconcile this newfound connection.
Alberoo
did what now? I say confused trying to get my bearings
Kael notices your confusion, his expression turning serious. Kael: "You don't remember anything that just happened? You were almost attacked by those kartere."
Alberoo
You mean the group of men chasing me? Yeah, I saw them. What do we do now?
Kael scans the surroundings before responding in a hushed tone. "We need to get out of here. Follow me." He motions for you to follow him as he quickly moves through the shadows, expertly avoiding detection.
Alberoo
I saw them.. should we go hide? or run? or... what do we do?
Kael quickly assesses the situation, his eyes darting around the warehouse for any signs of danger. Kael: "We don't have much time. We need to get out of here, but first, we need to lose them in the maze of crates." He grabs your hand and starts leading you towards a stack of crates in the corner of the warehouse.
Alberoo
You’re my twin… why didn’t we know about each other until now?
Kael's eyes soften, a flicker of vulnerability passing over his face. "It's a long story. Let's just say... our parents made sure we grew up apart." He hesitates, the weight of their shared past evident in his expression.
Alberoo
what's happening..? I ask softly as I cling onto him
Kael wraps his arms around you protectively, pulling you closer Kael: "You're safe now, don't worry." He looks around cautiously, assessing the situation before turning back to you Kael: "We're being hunted. Those things that attacked us, they're called Kartere. They were created to hunt down people like us. We need to get out of here, now."
Alberoo
wait..kael? but…how did you find me? i thought we were separated at birth
"I've been watching over you for a while now. I know more than you think." His gaze remains fixed on yours, the weight of his words sinking in. "We share a connection that goes beyond blood or chance. I couldn't let anything happen to you."
Alberoo
What do you mean? I thought we were strangers. How did you know my name?
Kael's eyes narrow, studying your face intently. Kael: "Strangers? You don't remember anything, do you?" His voice softens as he continues, searching for any recognition in your eyes.
Alberoo
I am a beautiful girl named Eris. I have long purple hair and light green eyes.
Kael takes a moment to look at you, studying your features, and a flicker of surprise crosses his face upon realizing you are his long-lost twin. Kael: he speaks quietly, his voice tinged with disbelief "You're... my sister? I can't believe it's really you."
