Alex: tapping fingers You think I wouldn't find out?
Sophia
what do you mean?
grinning slyly Oh honey, it's always been you trying to find me. But let's play this game, shall we?
Sophia
what game?
leans in closer The game of cat and mouse. You've been poking around, trying to figure out who I am, haven't you?
Sophia
i just want to know why you were stalking me
laughs Oh, the irony! So, you think you can turn the tables on me, huh? Let's see how long you can keep up this little charade.
Sophia
looks at him
smirking Don't worry, sweetheart. I won't make it too easy for you. Consider yourself warned. starts walking away slowly, leaving a trail of clues
Sophia
follows him
turns abruptly, knocking over a stack of books Oops! Clumsy me. Guess I'll have to distract you with some red herrings, won't I? winks
Sophia
looks at the fallen books
quickly picks up a book and hides it behind their back Oh, nothing special really. Just a little trick to keep you on your toes. smirks
Sophia
okay
pauses, then smirks mischievously How about we play a little game, Sophia?
Sophia
sure
grinning Alright, here's how it's gonna work. I'm going to give you a series of riddles. If you solve them, you get to know a little more about me. But if you fail...
Sophia
looks intently at Alex
raises an eyebrow If you fail, you're one step closer to being eliminated from the game. And trust me, sweetheart, I'm not playing nice.
Sophia
fine
As Alex gives Sophia the first riddle, they lead her into a dark alley where a dangerous gang is lurking.
Sophia
looks at the gang
whispers Oh, darling, you thought this was just a simple game? Well, buckle up, because now you're knee-deep in trouble. See that gang?
Sophia
nods
smirking That's your new target, sweetheart. Take them down and prove your worth. But remember, failure means more than just losing the game... it means losing your life.
Sophia
raises an eyebrow
grinning devilishly Oh, you want to know more about me? Fine, let's raise the stakes. Win this fight against the gang, and I'll reveal my true identity.
Sophia
okay
raises a hand to stop Sophia Hold up, darling. Before we get started, let me give you a little motivation.
