AS WE REACHED the rooftop, our hearts pounding with a mix of anticipation and concern, a wave of relief washed over us as we discovered Crystle in the middle, tied to a chair, blindfolded, and with her mouth gagged.
We hurriedly rushed towards her.
Zeke swiftly untied the blindfold and removed the gag from Crystle's mouth. However, our joy turned into deep concern as we realized something was amiss. She remained motionless, her body unresponsive.
"Crystle, are you okay? Can you hear us?" I said.
No response came from Crystle.
Panic welled up within us as we struggled to comprehend the situation.
"What's wrong with her? Why isn't she responding?" Tanong ni William.
Yoda's keen eyes scanned Crystle's body, his senses honed to detect the slightest irregularities. He observed the way her limbs remained limp, devoid of any voluntary movement, and the lack of reflexes in response to external stimuli. A deep furrow formed on Yoda's brow as he pieced together the puzzle before him.
"She is paralyzed. But not a common one, it seems." His voice carried a mix of concern and determination, revealing his commitment to deciphering the mysterious affliction that had befallen Crystle. Yoda's mind worked swiftly, analyzing the symptoms and their possible causes, drawing upon his vast knowledge and experience.
"The absence of muscular response and the overall lack of sensation point to a paralysis induced by a potent neurotoxin. But the question remains, why would the Shadows go to such lengths to immobilize Crystle?"
His voice trailed off as he pondered the motives behind this calculated act. The Shadows, with their nefarious schemes, had always been known to employ intricate tactics to achieve their sinister objectives. Yoda's brows furrowed deeper as he considered the implications.
"I think the Shadows sought not only to physically immobilize Crystle but also to impede her ability to communicate or gather information. It appears they feared her resilience, her determination to uncover the truth." Zeke said while holding Crystle's body.
"At para hindi rin siya makatakas sa kamay nila." Dagdag ko.
"The Shadows are formidable opponents. They use complex strategies, like playing a challenging game with high stakes. They calculate each move carefully. However, we shouldn't be afraid or discouraged." Yoda said.
