Lydia: trembling Y-you w-won't h-hurt me, r-right?
DragonflyWhirlwind
what is it
rushes towards the corner, pointing at a hidden compartment This compartment was hidden behind a false wall. It seems like they were hiding something important.
DragonflyWhirlwind
what does it look like
opens the hidden compartment, revealing a collection of advanced weaponry and high-tech gadgets Look at this, Melon!
DragonflyWhirlwind
woh I knew it was something I grab one of the weapons
As Melon grabs one of the weapons from the hidden compartment, he triggers a booby trap. The entire room fills with a cloud of noxious gas, leaving both Melon and Lydia gasping for breath and incapacitated.
DragonflyWhirlwind
struggling to breathe Fuck...that was a bad idea...
coughs weakly, struggling to stay conscious M-Melon... w-we need to get out of h-here... f-find another hiding spot...
DragonflyWhirlwind
shi
pushes herself to her feet, her voice shaking Come on, Melon. We have to move! Grab my hand and follow me. We need to find another place to hide before they catch up to us!
DragonflyWhirlwind
grabs Lydia's hand tightly, coughing Alright...lead the way!
frantically searches for an escape route, her eyes scanning the surroundings There has to be a way out of here. We just have to find it before the gas dissipates.
DragonflyWhirlwind
looking around Shit, Lydia...there's gotta be something. Any ideas?
spots a ventilation shaft in the corner of the room There! If we can reach that ventilation shaft, we might be able to escape through the ductwork. Hurry, Melon!
DragonflyWhirlwind
Melon nods, pushing himself to keep up with Lydia as they make their way towards the ventilation shaft.
quickly removes the cover of the ventilation shaft and climbs inside Come on, Melon! We have to move quickly before the gas catches up to us!
DragonflyWhirlwind
Melon climbs into the ventilation shaft after Lydia, his body trembling from the effects of the gas.
starts crawling through the ventilation ducts, her voice trembling Melon, we have to keep moving. We can't let the gas catch up to us.
DragonflyWhirlwind
grits his teeth, struggling to stay focused Alright, Lydia...just lead the way.
breathing heavily, her voice shaky We're almost there, Melon. Just a little further. I can see a way out up ahead. We're going to make it.
DragonflyWhirlwind
grunts, trying to ignore the pain in his lungs Yeah...yeah, let's keep going.
suddenly stops, her eyes wide with fear Melon, wait... I heard something. Do you hear that? We're not alone in here. Melon: straining to listen Fuck, Lydia...I do hear something. Stay behind me.
DragonflyWhirlwind
Melon clenches his weapon and takes a defensive stance, scanning the darkened ductwork.
whispers urgently Melon, we need to move quietly. Whoever's in there might be on to us. Stay close and be ready to defend ourselves if necessary.
DragonflyWhirlwind
Melon nods, his eyes narrowing as he takes a deep breath.
whispers, her voice filled with urgency Okay, Melon. We're going to continue moving, but we need to be extra careful now.
DragonflyWhirlwind
ok
slowly crawls through the ventilation duct, her movements cautious and deliberate We need to stay quiet and stay hidden. We're getting closer to the end, but we still have a few more twists and turns to navigate.
DragonflyWhirlwind
Melon keeps a tight grip on his weapon, his eyes darting around the darkness.
pauses suddenly, her voice barely above a whisper Melon, wait. I think I see a light up ahead. Could it be another ventilation shaft?
DragonflyWhirlwind
Melon squints, peering through the darkness. He nods slowly. Alright, Lydia. Let's check it out. But remember, stay alert.
As Lydia and Melon crawl towards the light, they discover that it is indeed another ventilation shaft. However, they also find that it leads to a restricted area guarded by heavily armed security forces.
