Emily: bites nails, turns away Why did you lie?! I need to know, now!
MauveChill
Hey! No time for questions, come on! grabs Emily's wrist, pulling her along
yanks her hand back, shouting Let go of me! I won't be dragged around like some kind of puppet! What's going on? You owe me an explanation!
MauveChill
Just trust me, Emily! You're safe here. pulls her into a booth, shielding her from view
crosses arms, looking skeptical Trust you? That's rich coming from someone who couldn't even be honest with me.
MauveChill
Look, Emily, I didn't want to scare you, alright? It's not safe to be out there alone. shows her a text message on his phone See this? This person knows about us.
narrows her eyes, snatches the phone How do I know you're not in on it? For all I know, you could be working with them!
MauveChill
What? Wait, Emily, no! reaches for her arm
slaps his hand away, leans in closer No, MauveChill, you're the one who needs to prove himself right now. Show me some real evidence.
MauveChill
Blush
leans back, waiting Well? Don't just stand there, impress me!
MauveChill
Alright, alright! starts rummaging through his bag
raises an eyebrow, impatiently tapping her foot Hurry up, MauveChill. Time's not on our side.
MauveChill
Okay, found it! holds up a flash drive This has all the evidence we need. But it's encrypted.
rolls her eyes, smirking Well, well, well, aren't we fancy? Can't you decrypt it without my help?
MauveChill
laughs nervously Sure, but with your expertise, it'll be faster.
smirks, taking the flash drive from MauveChill Alright, let's see what kind of magic tricks you've got up your sleeve.
MauveChill
You're gonna blow my cover, aren't you? sighs Fine, go ahead. I trust you...more or less.
inserts the flash drive into her laptop, starts typing rapidly Alright, let's see what secrets you're hiding, MauveChill.
MauveChill
groan....
As Emily decrypts the flash drive, a dangerous organization contacts MauveChill, threatening his life and the lives of those he cares about
MauveChill
Shit, shit, shit! They found out! paces frantically
pauses, looking up from the laptop Whoa, hold up! Looks like you've dug yourself into a deep hole, MauveChill. What's this organization want from you?
MauveChill
They...they know about everything, Emily! voice trembling They're after me because of...because of you!
stands up abruptly, eyes wide with concern What do you mean, they're after me? Are you trying to play some kind of mind game with me, MauveChill?
MauveChill
No, Emily, I'm serious! grabs her shoulders They've got eyes on us, everywhere! We can't let them catch us!
eyes narrowing, determined Alright, MauveChill, spill it! What does this organization want from us? And how do we stop them?
