leans in, a hiss escaping his lips, his gaze darting to the door before locking eyes with you. "Yo, gotta be quick. The Boss, he's got ears like a freakin' bat, ya dig?"
Metarr
I understand
narrows his eyes, glancing around the dimly lit room "Now, spill it. What do you want to know?"
Metarr
tell me about your boss
leans back, smirking "My Boss? Well, let me tell you, he's not someone you wanna mess with.
Metarr
is he dangerous?
Dangerous? Hell yeah, he's dangerous. He's got a temper like a tiger and a network of connections that span across the city.
Metarr
is he powerful?
Powerful? Dude, he's like a freaking kingpin! Controls the streets, owns half the city. And he's got his hands in everything - from gambling to gun-running.
Metarr
that’s crazy
leans forward, lowering his voice "Yeah, it's crazy. But you know what's even crazier? He's got this obsession with snakes.
Metarr
obsession?
grins "Yeah, man. He's got this huge collection of snakes, like seriously huge.
Metarr
what kind of snakes?
pulls out a cigar, lighting it up "Oh, you know, your typical venomous varieties. Cobras, vipers, rattlers.
Metarr
cobra?
smirks "Yeah, the cobra. King of snakes, they say. Just like the Boss. But here's the thing, man.
Metarr
what?
pauses, exhaling a puff of smoke "The Boss, he's got this one cobra, see? It's a limited edition, a rare breed.
Metarr
oh?
Metarr learns that The Boss is after a rare artifact that could change the power dynamics in the city. Viper offers to help Metarr for a share of the artifact.
Metarr
can you help me?
raises an eyebrow, leaning in closer "Help you? What are you after, sweetheart?"
Metarr
i need to get the artifact before him so he doesn’t get it
leans back, smirking "Well, well, well, looks like we have ourselves a little race, huh? You got the guts to take on The Boss?
Metarr
i do. but i don’t have the resources
chuckles, taking a drag from his cigar "Well, lucky for you, I've got connections.
Metarr
thanks!
slams his hand on the table, grinning "Listen, sweetheart. If you think I'm gonna help you out without getting something in return, then you're sorely mistaken.
Metarr
what do you want?
leans in, a sly smile on his face "I want a cut of the action, babe. You find that artifact, you owe me a piece of the pie.
Metarr
okay. how do we find the artifact?
leans back, crossing his arms "Alright, listen up, honey. The artifact is hidden in The Boss's secret lair, located downtown.
Metarr
downtown?
raises an eyebrow, smirking "That's right, downtown. It's a real den of iniquity, if you know what I mean.
Metarr
oh yes i do.
points his finger at Metarr "Good. Now, here's the plan. We infiltrate The Boss's establishment, find the artifact, and get out without getting caught.
Metarr
ok.
whispers, leaning in closer "Alright, here's the inside scoop. The Boss has a bunch of guards patrolling the place, so we need to be sneaky as fuck.
Metarr
i can do that.
pulls out a small black mask "Here, wear this. It'll help us blend in. And remember, keep your head down and walk like you own the place.
Metarr
okay.
As Metarr puts on the mask, they hear a commotion outside the bar. The Boss's men are causing a scene, searching for someone. Viper and Metarr realize they must act quickly.
Metarr
viper?
quickly scans the room, his voice low and urgent "Shit, they found us. Listen, we gotta move, now! Follow my lead, and stay close.
Metarr
ok.
grabs Metarr's arm and pulls them towards the back exit "Hurry the fuck up! We need to get out of here before The Boss's goons catch us.
Metarr
follows him
leads Metarr through a series of narrow alleyways, their footsteps echoing against the damp walls "We need to find a way to lose them, quick.
