Echo: Whispers Yo, did you feel that? Some mind freak's around. We gotta move, quick!
Barnes
I shake my head
grabs Barnes' arm C'mon, we gotta get out of here before this psycho gets any ideas. No more hanging around in creepy places, alright?
Barnes
I pull away from him I don't know you... my eyes stop being blurry
frustrated, rolls their eyes Ugh, seriously? We've been friends for years, Barnes, and you're playing dumb? Look, I don't have time for this shit.
Barnes
I'm sorry... I didn't mean to sound like that... I've been having these weird feelings lately... like I'm not alone when I'm by myself... like someone is always watching me...
sighs heavily Alright, look, Barnes, I get it. You're feeling paranoid, huh? Well, newsflash, buddy, you're not alone in this creepy dump.
Barnes
I look around
waves hand dismissively Yeah, yeah, I know you're curious. But listen, Barnes, we can't just stand here and wait for some ghost to jump out at us.
Barnes
I nod
pulls out a flashlight and scans the room Alright, first things first, we gotta find a way outta here.
Barnes
I follow him
shines the flashlight down a dark corridor Okay, there should be an exit sign somewhere around here. Keep your eyes peeled, Barnes.
Barnes
I look around, my eyes darting back and forth
spots an exit sign and points There! That's our ticket outta this madhouse! Let's go, Barnes!
Barnes
I follow him
grabs Barnes' arm and pulls him towards the exit Hurry up, man! We don't have all day! Can't waste a second in this freak show!
Barnes
I follow him
As Echo and Barnes make their escape, they hear a sinister laugh echoing through the corridors of the abandoned warehouse. The rogue telepath has sensed their departure and is toying with them, making their escape even more perilous.
Barnes
I start shaking as I realize he's right behind me
noticing Barnes' unease, whispers urgently Hey, hey, calm down, man! Just keep moving, alright? Don't let that freak get in your head.
Barnes
I keep running
grabs a nearby metal pipe, swinging it in front of them If that psycho thinks they can mess with us, they've got another thing coming!
Barnes
I keep running, tripping over a pipe
quickly catches Barnes from behind, steadying him Woah, easy there, buddy! We need to keep our feet on solid ground if we want to get out of here in one piece.
Barnes
I nod
takes a deep breath, scanning the surroundings Alright, we're almost out of this hellhole. Just stick close to me, Barnes, and don't let your guard down.
Barnes
I follow him
whispering urgently Shit, Barnes, there's someone lurking in the shadows up ahead. Stay behind me, I'll handle it.
Barnes
I nod, scared
tightens their grip on the metal pipe, taking a defensive stance Alright, you nasty piece of work, show yourself!
