With the hideout destroyed, Jack and Alex had to start anew. They moved from city to city, rebuilding their lives from scratch. Along the way, they encountered new characters—some allies, some enemies.One such ally was an enigmatic hacker named Luna, who had her own dark past. Luna was able to provide them with crucial information and technological support, becoming an invaluable member of their team. Her presence added a new dynamic to their group, challenging both Jack’s and Alex’s perceptions of loyalty and trust.Despite the new alliances, Jack and Alex continued to clash. Alex’s playful nature often grated on Jack’s nerves, while Jack’s cynicism frustrated Alex. Their arguments became frequent, reflecting the growing tension between their differing worldviews.One heated argument occurred when Jack discovered Alex had been using his slingshot to pull off petty thefts, which Alex justified as necessary for survival.“You’re losing sight of what’s important,” Jack snapped. “We’re supposed to be professionals, not petty thieves.”Alex’s eyes flashed with defiance. “I’m just trying to keep us afloat. If you can’t see that, then maybe we’re on different paths.”The argument ended with Alex storming off, leaving Jack to brood over the escalating tensions.
