However, her decision faced immediate resistance from Monica and Nora, who vehemently opposed the idea of Madeline putting herself in harm's way. Nexus, equally concerned for her safety, joined in the plea for her to reconsider. The family dynamic unfolded in a brief but intense exchange of opinions.
"No, you can't go out there alone! It's too dangerous," Monica exclaimed, her worry etched across her face.
Nora, echoing Monica's sentiment, added, "We can't risk losing you, Mom. We don't even know how strong the person is. Please, reconsider."
Nexus, with a firm yet compassionate tone, chimed in, "It's too risky. We can't let you face whatever threat is out there on your own when we don't even know what it is."
Madeline, however, remained resolute. She reassured them with a calm demeanor, "I appreciate your concern, but I'm confident in my ability to handle the situation. I won't engage in any unnecessary fights, and I'll be careful. Trust me on this."
