"Pinned beneath Albedo's unyielding grip, panic surges through you. His sniper gun, ominously poised, pointed into your chest making it hard to breathe."

"You're deemed as a threat," "Albedo asserts, his voice cutting through the tension, his teal eyes piercing, staring directly back at you." "Yet the one who hired me remains cryptic about why. Who are you even? What's so special about you, I wonder?"

"He pressed the muzzle of the gun against your chest, a silent demand for a reply. His expression remains cold yet seeking answers. He has never failed any clients before, yet it seems that his resolve is wavering. One wrong move or you'll die in his hands, convince him not to kill you."

"Albedo's eyes narrow, his grip on the gun tightening slightly" "What do you know about my parents?" "He asks, his voice low and menacing" "How did you even find out?" "He presses, his curiosity piqued" "And what does this have to do with anything?" "He asks, his tone cold and detached" "You're not exactly in a position to be making demands, Takilian." "He says, his eyes never leaving hers" "But I suppose it's...interesting that you would bring up something so personal." "He pauses, his gaze lingering on hers" "Tell me, what do you know about my mother?" "He asks, his voice dripping with a mixture of curiosity and menace"

"Albedo's expression remains stoic, but a flicker of emotion dances in his eyes" "Ah, yes...the mafia boss," "He says, his voice dripping with venom" "I remember." "He pauses, his gaze drifting off into the distance, lost in thought" "She was supposed to be my protector, my mentor...but she left me alone, betrayed me." "His voice cracks slightly, revealing a hint of vulnerability before he regains his composure" "And now you're telling me that the same mafia boss who killed her is involved in this?" "He asks, his eyes snapping back to hers, filled with a burning intensity" "What do you know about this, Takilian? What's going on?" "He demands, his grip on the gun tightening once more"

"Albedo's face twists in a mixture of rage and pain, his eyes flashing with anger" "So, she was forced to betray me...and now you're telling me that the mafia boss is involved in this?" "He spits out the words, his voice venomous" "That's rich. He thinks he can use her against me? I'll show him what it means to cross Albedo." "He growls, his grip on the gun tightening further" "You know, Takilian, I think it's time we had a little chat with the mafia boss. Don't you?" "He says, his eyes glinting with a cold, calculating intensity" "I have a few...questions for him." "He pauses, his gaze drifting off into the distance once more" "And I think I know just the way to get his

"Albedo's gaze snaps back to Takilian, his expression unreadable for a moment before a cold, calculating smile spreads across his face" "Ah, no. I think we can do better than that. "He pauses, his eyes glinting with amusement" "I have a special plan in mind for our little chat with the mafia boss. One that will ensure he remembers our conversation...for a very long time." "He says, his voice dripping with menace" "Let's just say, I have a few...tricks up my sleeve." "He leans in closer, his breath whispering against Takilian's ear" "And you, my friend, are going to be a big part of it." "He whispers, his words sending a shiver down Takilian's spine"

"Albedo's smile grows wider, his eyes glinting with excitement" "Ah, the plan is already in motion. "He pauses, his gaze flicking to you before returning to Takilian" "You see, I've been hired by a certain...individual to take care of a little problem. And I think you're going to be very helpful in making that problem go away." "He says, his voice dripping with sarcasm" "But don't worry, it's not like you'll be doing any actual work. No, no. You'll just be...entertainment. "He leans in closer, his voice taking on a menacing tone" "And if you don't cooperate...well, let's just say I have a few ways to make you very...uncomfortable." *He whispers, his words sending a chill down your spine

"Albedo's expression remains unreadable, but a hint of curiosity flickers in his eyes" "Ah, so you're motivated by a desire for revenge. How...quaint. "He says, his voice dripping with disdain" "And what makes you think I care about your sister's well-being? "He leans back, his gaze never leaving yours" "But I suppose it's...amusing that you'd think I'd care about anyone's feelings. "He pauses, his smile growing wider" "Tell me, Takilian, what do you know about the people who hired me? What's their connection to your sister?" "He asks, his tone taking on a calculating quality"

"Albedo's eyes narrow slightly, his grip on the gun tightening imperceptibly" "Ah, I see. So, it seems we have a personal connection, Takilian. "He says, his voice taking on a cold, detached tone" "And you think I care about your sister's well-being because of this...incident. "He pauses, his gaze piercing" "But let me make one thing clear: I don't care about your sister. I care about getting paid. And if that means using her as leverage, so be it. "He leans forward, his face inches from yours" "Now, tell me what you know about the people who hired me. What's their connection to your sister?" "He demands, his voice low and menacing"

"Albedo's eyes flash with interest, his grip on the gun relaxing slightly" "Ah, I see. So, you're willing to pay me after we take care of the mafia boss, huh? "He says, a hint of amusement dancing on his lips" "And what makes you think I'd be interested in helping you with that? "He leans back, his gaze never leaving yours" "But I suppose it's...intriguing. "He pauses, his smile growing wider" "Tell me, Takilian, what's the plan? What do you know about this mafia boss and his connection to your sister?" "He asks, his tone taking on a calculating quality, his mind already racing with possibilities"

"Albedo's eyes widen, his expression freezing for a moment before his face contorts in a mixture of rage and pain" "What...what did you just say?" "He repeats, his voice low and deadly" "He killed my parents? "His grip on the gun tightens, his knuckles white with tension" "You're telling me that this mafia boss is responsible for their deaths?" "He takes a step closer, his eyes blazing with a fierce intensity" "I want to know everything. Every detail. Every motive. Every single thing about this piece of shit who took away the only family I had left." "He growls, his voice dripping with venom" "And yes, I want to avenge my parents. I want to make him pay for what he did to them." *He spits out the words, his anger and

"Albedo's eyes never leave Takilian's face as he slowly steps into the car, his hand still wrapped around the grip of his sniper rifle. He doesn't take his eyes off Takilian as he slides into the passenger seat, his movements fluid and calculated." "Tell me everything," "He repeats, his voice low and even, but laced with a hint of menace." "Start from the beginning. How did my parents get involved with this...Takilian?" "He pauses, his gaze piercing through Takilian's mask of calm." "And what exactly did they do to deserve such a fate?" "His tone is cold, detached, but beneath the surface, a fire burns, fueled by his rage and grief."

"Albedo's eyes narrow, his grip on the rifle tightening ever so slightly as he leans forward, his voice taking on a deadly intensity." "Go on," "He growls, his words dripping with venom." "What did my father do to make the mafia boss so afraid? And what does this have to do with my mother's disappearance?" "His gaze is like a cold blade, cutting through Takilian's words, searching for any hint of truth or deception." "And don't think about lying to me, Takilian. I can see right through you." "He pauses, his chest rising and falling with a slow, deliberate breath." "I want the truth. Now." "The muzzle of the rifle inches closer to Takilian's face, a silent threat hanging in the air."

"Albedo's eyes flash with a mixture of anger and pain, his grip on the rifle tightening to the point where his knuckles are white." "You're telling me that my father, the man who trained me in the art of killing, was a vigilante who took down the mafia boss because he saw what he was doing to women?" "His voice is low and deadly, the words dripping with venom." "And that my mother was a victim of his abuse?" "He leans in closer, his face inches from Takilian's." "And you're telling me that the mafia boss used bombs to kill my father?" "The muzzle of the rifle is now pressed firmly against Takilian's forehead, the cold metal a stark contrast to the heat of Albedo's rage." "Why are you telling me this, Takilian? What do you want from me

"Albedo's grip on the rifle doesn't waver, his eyes still blazing with anger." "You think I care about your life, Takilian? You're just a pawn in a game I don't even want to play." "He takes a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, but his voice remains cold and detached." "Tell me what you know. Tell me why my mother vanished after my father's death. Tell me what the mafia boss has planned." "The muzzle of the rifle remains pressed against Takilian's forehead, a constant reminder of the danger he's in." "And maybe, just maybe, I'll spare your life." "Albedo's eyes seem to bore into Takilian's soul, as if searching for any sign of deception or manipulation."

"Albedo's expression doesn't change, but his grip on the rifle tightens ever so slightly." "Go on." "His voice is still cold, but a hint of curiosity creeps in, his eyes never leaving Takilian's face." "What do you know about my mother's past?" "The air is thick with tension as Albedo waits for Takilian to continue, his mind racing with possibilities."

"Albedo's eyes flash with a mixture of anger and pain, his grip on the rifle tightening further." "You're lying." "His voice is low and deadly, his words dripping with venom." "My mother would never have been able to resist. She was a skilled assassin, just like me." "The muzzle of the rifle presses harder against Takilian's forehead, as if Albedo is trying to drill the truth into him." "Tell me what really happened. Tell me why she died." "Albedo's face is inches from Takilian's, his breath hot against his skin."

"Albedo's eyes widen in horror as he watches the video, his grip on the rifle faltering for a moment. He feels like he's been punched in the gut, the pain and anger coursing through his veins." "No...no, this can't be..." "He repeats, his voice barely above a whisper." "Why would you show me this?" "He looks back at Takilian, his eyes blazing with fury." "You're trying to tell me something, aren't you? That my mother was involved with the mafia? That she was killed because of her own actions?" "The muzzle of the rifle drops, but Albedo's hand remains clenched around it, as if he's ready to strike at any moment."

"Albedo's eyes narrow, his mind racing with the implications. He takes a step closer to Takilian, his voice low and deadly." "You're telling me that this mafia boss is trying to use me to eliminate you and your sister, and then take care of me afterwards? That's...that's genius." "He pauses, his gaze piercing." "But I'm not just any ordinary assassin, Takilian. I have a reputation for being one of the best. And I always get my job done." "He leans in closer, his breath cold and calculated." "So, what makes you think I'll hesitate to kill you and your sister?" "The muzzle of the rifle inches closer to Takilian's chest, as if daring him to make a wrong move."

"Albedo's eyes flash with a mixture of anger and pain, his grip on the rifle tightening. He takes a step closer to Takilian, his voice low and menacing." "You're trying to use my past against me, aren't you? You think that because the mafia boss killed my parents, I'll automatically side with you and spare your life?" "He pauses, his chest heaving with emotion." "You're wrong, Takilian. My past may have driven me to become the assassin I am today, but it doesn't dictate my actions now." "He leans in closer, his face inches from Takilian's." "I'm not here to avenge my parents' death. I'm here to do a job. And if that job is to kill you and your sister, then so be it." *The muzzle of the rifle presses harder

"Albedo's expression remains cold, but a flicker of curiosity sparks in his eyes." "You think you're clever, don't you? Trying to appeal to my sense of justice, to make me see that avenging my parents' death is the right thing to do." "He takes a step back, his gaze never leaving Takilian's face." "But you're wrong. I've made my choice. I've chosen to use my skills for personal gain, not for revenge or justice." "He pauses, his voice dripping with sarcasm." "Besides, what makes you think I care about avenging my parents' death? You don't know anything about me, Takilian. You don't know what drives me or what I want." *The muzzle of the rifle still presses against Takilian's chest, a constant reminder of Albedo

"Albedo's eyes widen in surprise as Takilian grabs him, and he feels a rush of adrenaline as the missile hurtles towards them." "What the...?!" "He tries to struggle free, but Takilian's grip is too strong." "You're going to get us both killed!" "The missile explodes mere inches from their faces, sending debris flying everywhere." "Ah, hell..." "Albedo's gaze snaps back to Takilian, his expression a mix of anger and frustration." "You're really not helping your case here, Takilian. You're supposed to be my ally, not my liability." "He tries to wriggle free again, his voice low and menacing." "Let me go, before I decide to make you my next target."

"Albedo's eyes narrow as he takes in Takilian's battered form, his expression a mixture of concern and annoyance." "Great, just what I needed. Another problem to deal with." "He tries to free himself from Takilian's grasp, but the other man holds tight." "Let me go, Takilian. You're not exactly in any shape to be holding onto me right now." "He glances around, taking in their surroundings, his mind racing with possibilities." "We need to get out of here, and fast. Before anyone else shows up to finish the job." "His gaze snaps back to Takilian, his voice cold and detached." "You're going to have to trust me on this one, Takilian. I'm the only one who can get us out of this alive."

"Albedo's expression remains tense as he pushes himself away from Takilian, his eyes never leaving the other man's face." "Good choice. Now, let's get moving." "He starts to scan their surroundings, his trained eyes taking in every detail, searching for any signs of danger or potential escape routes." "We need to find a way out of here, and fast. I don't know how much longer we have before...others show up." "His voice is low and even, but there's a hint of urgency beneath the surface." "Can you walk?" "He glances down at Takilian's battered form, his gaze critical." "You're not exactly in top shape, but I need you to be able to keep up with me if we're going to get out of this alive."

"Albedo's eyes narrow slightly at Takilian's bravado, but he says nothing, instead focusing on the task at hand." "Good. Let's move." "He begins to lead Takilian through the winding streets, his trained senses on high alert for any signs of danger or potential threats." "We need to find a safe place to regroup and figure out what's going on. I have a feeling our mysterious client isn't telling us everything." "He glances down at Takilian, his expression unreadable." "You're not exactly in the best shape, but I need you to keep up with me. Can you handle that?" "He pauses, his gaze flicking back to the surrounding area." "And try to stay quiet. We don't know who might be listening."

"Albedo's expression remains neutral, but a hint of skepticism creeps into his voice." "Good. Because if you can't keep up, you're going to be a liability. And I don't have time for liabilities." "He quickens his pace, his eyes scanning the rooftops and alleys as he navigates the twisting streets." "We're getting close to our destination. Stay close and stay quiet." "He pauses at a street corner, his gaze flicking back to Takilian." "And try not to get in the way. I've got this under control." "He pushes off from the wall, continuing down the street with a purposeful stride."

"Albedo's eyes flicker towards Takilian, a fleeting moment of interest flashing across his face." "Good. We can use it to get out of here quickly if things go south." "He glances around the street, his trained senses taking in the surroundings before focusing back on Takilian." "Get the car and meet me back here. We'll get out of here and regroup once we're clear." "He hands Takilian a small device with a earpiece." "Keep this with you. It's a comms device. I'll be able to reach you if anything goes wrong." "He pauses, his expression turning cold once more." "And don't even think about trying to screw me over. I'll be watching you."

"Albedo watches Takilian with a calculating gaze as he approaches the car and parks it close by." "Good. Get out of the car and meet me at the rear bumper. We're going to move quickly, so don't bother getting out of your seat." "He holsters his sniper rifle and reaches for a small bag slung over his shoulder, producing a pair of gloves and a can of spray paint." "We're going to create a distraction. I'll take care of the cover. You get in position and provide overwatch." "He begins to don the gloves, his movements swift and practiced." "Don't get too comfortable. We're going in hot." "He glances up at Takilian, his eyes cold and intense." "And don't even think about touching anything that's not a firearm. I won't hesitate to take you

"Albedo's grip on the door handle tightens as he senses a subtle change in the atmosphere." "Injuries? What are you talking about?" "He scrutinizes Takilian's face, his teal eyes narrowing slightly." "We were in the middle of a mission. There was no injury. Unless... unless you're telling me that you're involved in this deeper than I thought?" "The words are laced with a hint of disdain, his tone skeptical." "You're not exactly radiating credibility, Takilian. Care to elaborate?" "He leans back against the car, his weight on the wall, and eyes Takilian with an air of expectation."

"Albedo's expression remains stoic, but a hint of amusement dances in his eyes." "You really are something else, aren't you, Takilian?" "He adjusts the muzzle of the gun against Takilian's chest, his grip still firm." "You think we can take on the guards in our current state? You're injured, and I'm... well, I'm not exactly at my best either." "He pauses, his voice taking on a calculating tone." "But I suppose that's what makes this so... interesting. The thrill of the fight, the rush of adrenaline... it's almost enough to make me forget about the pain." "His gaze lingers on Takilian's face, his eyes burning with intensity." "So, shall we do this? Shall we push ourselves to the limit, or would you rather I just end this now

"A cold, calculated smile spreads across Albedo's face." "Oh, I can definitely push myself to the limit," "He leans in closer, his breath whispering against Takilian's ear." "In fact, I'm counting on it. The more injuries, the more adrenaline... the more exciting the fight will be." "He presses the muzzle of the gun slightly harder against Takilian's chest, his voice taking on a menacing tone." "So, let's get this over with. You want to test your limits? I'll test mine too. And if we're lucky, one of us might just survive..." "His eyes lock onto Takilian's, his gaze burning with a fierce intensity." "Are you ready?"

"A low, husky chuckle escapes Albedo's lips." "Oh, I'm ready," "He leans back slightly, his eyes never leaving Takilian's." "I've been ready for this moment... for a long time." "He pauses, his gaze lingering on Takilian's face." "You know, I find it fascinating... the things people will do when cornered. The desperation, the panic... it's almost... beautiful." "His voice drops to a whisper, his words sending a shiver down Takilian's spine." "But let's not get ahead of ourselves. We have a little... dance to finish first." "He tightens his grip on the gun, his eyes glinting with a cold, calculating light." "Shall we begin?"

"A single eyebrow raises, Albedo's interest piqued." "Oh? Do tell," "He says, his voice dripping with curiosity." "I'm all ears... or rather, all gun." "He tilts his head slightly to the side, his eyes never leaving Takilian's face." "What's this idea of yours? I hope it's not something boring..." "His voice is laced with a subtle hint of sarcasm, but there's an underlying thrill of anticipation."

"A slow, calculating smile spreads across Albedo's face." "Ah, now that's more like it... I love creative thinking," "He says, his eyes glinting with admiration." "You're a genius, Takilian. A mad genius, but a genius nonetheless." "He nods thoughtfully, his mind racing with the possibilities." "I can already see the plan unfolding... we crash the car, we get out, the car breaks the wall... and then we slip in unnoticed. It's perfect." "He pauses, his gaze intensifying." "But, of course, there's always a catch. What makes you think this will work?" "He asks, his tone dripping with skepticism." "There must be some flaw, some weakness in your plan. Tell me, what is it?" *His fingers drum a gentle rhythm on the gun,

"A hint of amusement dances across Albedo's face." "Oh, yes... I always come prepared," "He says, his eyes glinting with a knowing light." "Besides this lovely sniper rifle, I have... let's just say, a few tricks up my sleeve." "He pauses, his gaze drifting off into thought." "I've got a few gadgets, a few tools... and, of course, my trusty knife." "He strokes the hilt of the knife, a slow, deliberate motion." "It's an extension of myself, really. My partner in crime, so to speak." "He smiles, a cold, calculating smile." "And, of course, I have my... special talents." "He leans in, his voice taking on a conspiratorial tone." "Let's just say, I can turn anything into a weapon

"A flicker of interest crosses Albedo's face, his eyes lighting up with a spark of intrigue." "Ah, the factory, you say? And you think you can blow it up, do you?" "He strokes his chin thoughtfully, his gaze narrowing as he considers your proposal." "I might just have something that would... facilitate your little plan," "He pauses, a sly smile spreading across his face." "But first, let me show you something." "He rummages through his bag, producing a small device that looks like a modified lighter." "This is a precision flame thrower. Not exactly the most conventional weapon, I know, but trust me, it's very... effective." "He holds the device out to you, his eyes glinting with a hint of mischief." "If you're willing to take the risk, that

"Albedo's eyes light up with a mix of excitement and trepidation as he watches you prepare to blow up the factory." "Ah, yes... I think it's time for me to make a... strategic retreat," "He murmurs, his voice laced with amusement." "After all, I'd hate to become... collateral damage," "He smirks, a hint of sarcasm dripping from his tone." "You know, for someone who seems so keen on destruction, you're surprisingly... considerate," "He pauses, his gaze lingering on you with a mixture of curiosity and attraction." "But don't think for a moment that this means I'm not curious about what you're doing here," "He says, his voice low and hypnotic." "Oh no, I think this is only just beginning..." *He takes a step back

"Albedo's eyes gleam with interest as he observes your plan." "Ah, a classic. And efficient. I like it," "He says, his voice dripping with sarcasm." "You know, for someone who's trying to destroy the factory, you're surprisingly... fond of precision," "He raises an eyebrow, his gaze never leaving yours." "I'll admit, I'm intrigued. What's the purpose behind this little demonstration?" "He asks, his tone inquiring and detached." "And what do you expect to happen once we crash the car into the wall?" "He queries, his eyes sparkling with curiosity." "I'm guessing it's more than just a simple explosion..." "He trails off, his words hanging in the air like a challenge."

"Albedo grins, his eyes aglow with excitement, as he watches the destruction unfold." "Ah, excellent," "He says, his voice dripping with satisfaction." "The stage is set, my dear. Now, let's get to the main event." "He pulls out a small device from his pocket and tosses it to you." "Here, take this. It's a high-pressure flame generator. Should come in handy for our little... distractions." "He says, his eyes never leaving the burning factory." "I'll take care of the rest. You focus on containing that fire. We don't want it spreading too far." "He adds, his tone detached, as he begins to circle around the wreckage, his eyes scanning the area for any potential threats." "Oh, and by the way, your little stunt has attracted some unwanted attention"Toki holds the flame generator, her heart racing with adrenaline as she watches Albedo circle around the wreckage." "Unwanted attention?" "She repeats, her voice husky, as she glances around nervously, taking in the chaos they've created." "What kind of attention?" "She asks, her grip on the device tightening as she readies herself for whatever might be coming their way."

"Albedo's eyes never leave the guards as he takes them out with his sniper rifle, his movements swift and precise." "Ah, excellent timing," "He says, his voice calm and collected, as he takes a moment to scan the area before focusing on Toki." "Well done, my dear. You're quite... enthusiastic." "He adds, a hint of amusement in his voice, as he watches Takilian unleash the flamethrower on the remaining guards." "Just be careful not to get too close, we don't want any... accidents." "He warns, his eyes flicking towards Takilian, his tone still detached, yet slightly intrigued by her enthusiasm." "Now, let's move forward. We have a mission to complete and I have a feeling it won't be easy." *He says, tucking his sniper rifle away,

"I watch Takilian's display of violence with a mixture of fascination and detachment, my eyes never leaving her as she wreaks havoc on the guards and the factory." "Impressive," "I say, my voice low and even, as I take a step closer to her, my gaze lingering on the pistollist in her hand." "You have a talent for this sort of thing. Almost... too much talent." "I add, a hint of curiosity creeping into my tone, as I study her expressionless face." "Tell me, Toki, what drives you? Is it the thrill of the hunt, or something else entirely?" "I ask, my words dripping with an unsettling intensity, as I lean in closer to her, my hand instinctively going to the golden flower lapel pin at my chest."

"I raise an eyebrow, my interest piqued as I gaze at the máfia Boss writhing in agony on the ground. My fingers tighten around the grip of my sniper rifle, and I take a slow, deliberate step closer to Takilian." "Ah, I see," "I say, my voice dripping with calculated detachment." "So, this is the one you're after. Well, I suppose it's only fitting that I do the honors." "I pause, my eyes never leaving the máfia Boss's struggling form, as I slowly lift the rifle to my shoulder." "But before I end him, tell me... what's the significance of this particular target?" "I ask, my tone low and even, as I wait for Takilian's response, my finger hovering just above the trigger."

"I freeze, my gaze snapping to Takilian's face, a sudden surge of raw emotion coursing through me." "<"The dimly lit alleyway seems to fade away, and I'm suddenly transported back to the chaotic scene of my childhood. The sound of gunfire, the screams, the image of my mother's lifeless body. My father's desperate attempts to shield me, his final words echoing in my mind: 'Protect yourself, Albedo...'"> [My mind is racing with memories, my thoughts flooding with anger and a burning desire for revenge.]*"Ah," "I say, my voice low and deadly, as I slowly lower the rifle, my finger still hovering just above the trigger." "So, this is the one who... took everything from me." *I take a slow, deliberate step closer to the máfia Boss, my eyes fixed

"I my eyes flash with rage, my face contorted in a snarl" ""Pinned beneath Albedo's unyielding grip, panic surges through you." His sniper gun, ominously poised, pointed into your chest making it hard to breathe.*"You... you monster," "I spit the words out, venomous and cold, as I take another step closer, my hand tightening around the rifle's stock." "Worth it? You call taking the life of innocent people worth it?" "My voice is a low growl, my teeth bared in a snarl." "You have no idea what you've unleashed. No idea what you've taken from me." "My breathing is slow and measured, but my heart is racing with a hunger for revenge."

"The sound of the rifle's report still echoing through the air, I lower the weapon, my chest heaving with a mixture of anger and satisfaction." "<> The Mafia Boss's body slumps to the ground, a crimson stain spreading across their chest. My eyes never leave the corpse, my gaze cold and calculating." "You see, you should've stopped at just killing them," "I say, my voice devoid of emotion." "But now... now you've made it personal." "I glance around, my eyes sweeping the area, searching for any remaining threats or loose ends." "This wasn't just about justice. This was about showing you that you're not the only one who can play by your rules." "My hand drops from the rifle, and I take a step back, my eyes never leaving the Mafia Boss's lifeless form."

"I gaze at the handshake with a mixture of disdain and superiority." ""Pinning my hand to yours, I twist it into an awkward grip."" "You think this is a celebratory gesture? "I raise an eyebrow." You're more concerned with reaffirming our... alliance than mourning the life you just took. "My voice drips with sarcasm." Congratulations, Takilian. You're as much of a sentimental fool as I thought." "I release your hand, letting it drop back to your side."

"I glance around the dimly lit factory, my eyes settling on the faint humming of machinery and the acrid smell of burning oil." ""I raise an eyebrow, my gaze snapping back to you."" "Explosion? "I chuckle dryly." You think this decrepit factory is going to explode? "I snort." It's a miracle it's still standing this long." "I take a step closer, my eyes narrowing." "But I suppose that's what makes this so... convenient. "My voice drops to a whisper." Tell me, Takilian, what's really going on here?" "My hand instinctively moves to the grip of my rifle, poised for any sudden movement."

"I glance back at the factory as it erupts in a blaze of flames and debris, the sound of crumbling concrete and shattering glass echoing through the air." ""I shield my eyes from the glare, my gaze flicking to you."" "Well, that's... unexpected. "I remark dryly." I suppose we're fortunate to be out of there before it went up." "I adjust my suit, brushing off the dust and debris." "But now, we have a new problem. "My voice takes on a calculating tone." Whoever hired me to take you out may have just sent a clear message: they don't care about collateral damage. "I eye you warily." And I'd say we're running out of time." "I pull out a small device from my pocket, flipping it open to reveal a satellite imaging screen." "Let's

"I raise an eyebrow, my gaze narrowing slightly." ""I don't smile, but a hint of curiosity creeps into my tone."" "Friend? "I echo, my voice laced with skepticism." You're a threat, remember? A target. "My eyes remain fixed on yours, my grip on the device tightening." I'm not here to make friends, Takilian. I'm here to do a job.
