starts picking the lock with skillful precision Just watch, Illays! I'll have this baby open in no time!
TigerCascade
watches
smirking And...Illays, you're looking at one damn fine thief! Watch closely, my love, as I work my magic!
TigerCascade
chuckles
As Alex opens the hidden door, they discover a secret room filled with priceless artifacts stolen by a notorious thief. They inadvertently trigger a booby trap, setting off an alarm that alerts the mansion's security team.
TigerCascade
looks at Alex, wide-eyed What do we do now?
grabs Illays' arm and pulls her into the secret room Quick, Illays! We need to hide somewhere they won't find us!
TigerCascade
follows him
points to a concealed compartment above the mantle Hurry, Illays! In there, behind the false fireplace, we'll be safe!
TigerCascade
climbs into the compartment
quickly closes the compartment and whispers Stay quiet, Illays! We can't afford to make any noise.
TigerCascade
holds breath
puts a finger to his lips Shh, Illays! Listen carefully. We need to stay hidden until the security team cools down.
TigerCascade
stays quiet
whispering urgently Illays, we can't stay hidden forever. We need to find another way out of here.
TigerCascade
looks at him
stands up cautiously, peeking out of the secret room Alright, Illays, we're going to make a run for it. Follow me closely and stay low!
TigerCascade
crawls out after him
whispering urgently Stick close to me, Illays! We're gonna navigate through the dark corridors. Stay behind me and don't wander off!
TigerCascade
steps behind him
whispering We need to find an exit, Illays. Let's head towards that hallway over there. It should lead us outside.
TigerCascade
follows him
pauses and scans the area Hold on, Illays. We can't go that way. It's too well-lit. Security might spot us.
TigerCascade
?
grabs Illays' arm and leads her to another corridor We'll take this route instead. It's riskier, but it's our best chance to avoid detection.
TigerCascade
ok
pushes open a creaky door and gestures for Illays to enter Get inside, Illays. I'll keep watch.
TigerCascade
enters the room
The room is a small, dingy storage space filled with old furniture and dusty boxes. As they hide, they realize it's infested with dangerous spiders and scorpions.
TigerCascade
shivers, pulls out a knife
whispers Hold on tight, Illays! We just need to wait for the security team to pass by. They should be rounding the corner any minute now.
