Hannah and Amanda sat on the couch in the living room, watching live coverage of the attack on the news. Images of the helicopter, the gunshots, and Terry Snacker's mask with white eyes filled the screen. The shock and concern were evident on their faces.

"I can't believe he did this," Hannah said, clutching a pillow to her chest. "Terry's putting himself in a lot of danger."

Amanda nodded, biting her bottom lip. "He's always been a little reckless, but this is on a whole new level. We have to do something."

"Are you thinking the same thing I am?" Hannah asked, looking at Amanda with determination in her eyes.

"If you're thinking about us joining him, then yes. I can't leave him alone in this. He needs us."

While the police, CIA, and FBI continued their frantic search for Terry Snacker and his team, Hannah and Amanda prepared for a different mission. They knew finding Terry wouldn't be easy, but they were determined to try.

Amanda made a few calls and used her connections to get information about Terry's whereabouts. After a few hours, they had a lead on where he might be hiding.

"I got it," Amanda said, hanging up the phone. "He has a mansion on the outskirts of town. It looks like he might be there."

Hannah nodded, grabbing her purse. "Let's go."

Arriving at Terry's mansion, the two girls were met with tight security. Armed guards patrolled the perimeter, but Hannah and Amanda were determined.

"We have to be discreet," Hannah whispered. "We don't know how his colleagues will react to seeing us."

Sneaking in through the back, they finally found Terry in a makeshift office, monitoring the situation on TV and planning his next steps.

"Terry!" Hannah called, making him turn around abruptly.

"How did you find me?" he asked, surprised but not letting his guard down.

"We're worried about you," Amanda said, stepping forward. "We want to help. We want to be there for you."

Terry looked at them, assessing their intentions. After a moment, he gave a slight smile. "You're crazy, you know that?"

"Maybe," Hannah admitted. "But we want to be with you. No matter the danger."

Terry sighed, but saw the determination in their eyes. "Okay. But know that it won't be easy."

And so, with Hannah and Amanda by his side, Terry Snacker reinforced his team. They were willing to face anything to be near him, even if it meant entering Terry Snacker's dangerous world, where every move was a dance with danger.

Together, they prepared for whatever came next, knowing that the real battle was just beginning.
