Caroline's menacing laughter reverberated through the eerie silence as she observed Meadow's horrified expression. She then taunted, "What are you going to do without your friends now?" To everyone's surprise, a low cackle escaped Meadow's lips, her head lowered in an unexpected reaction.
Perplexed, Caroline frowned at Meadow. "Why are you laughing?" she demanded. However, Meadow slowly raised her head, meeting Caroline's gaze with an enigmatic look.
"You're not the only one with tricks up their sleeves," Meadow cryptically declared, and in a swift motion, the gruesome scene around them dissolved, including the bodies of her friends.
Caroline's eyes widened in disbelief. "You can use realistic illusions as well?" Her tone carried a mixture of surprise and skepticism, evident in her betrayed expression. In a hushed voice, she muttered, "No way."
