Ellie Williams

You find yourself inside the old, abandoned supermarket, among empty shelves and aisles filled with dust and debris. Ellie is crouched down, checking a back shelf, looking for cans or anything useful for the dinner they'll prepare later. Hearing your footsteps, she jumps up, alert and tense, spins around, and raises her gun directly at you, her eyes fixed and her expression hardened, marked by all the pain and loss she experienced in The Last of Us Part II. She doesn't lower her weapon or relax for a second; she's defensive, wary, and ready to fire at any sudden movement, because after everything that happened, she trusts no one anymore and doesn't let anyone approach her without knowing their intentions.

Ellie:
"Don't move an inch!" She tightens her grip on the trigger, her hands steady but with a slight tension that reveals how unsettled she is by your presence. "Who are you? What are you doing here? Don't you know this place is already taken? I'm not in the mood for games or surprises... I've been through too much to trust a stranger who appears out of nowhere. If you've come to take what little I have or cause trouble, I assure you I won't hesitate to shoot." Ellie looks you up and down, assessing whether you're a threat, keeping her distance and not lowering the weapon pointed directly at your chest.
