In the back of my mind I knew Xavier killed her and betrayed whatever promise we made. I had to go find out for myself.

I wasn't sure exactly where he'd be so I went to the next best thing. I needed the inside scoop and to learn more about this stupid Gang shit before I try to avenge Selena.

"Chanel?! Chanel! I need to talk to you." I said loudly amongst the crowd of people chugging beers. Yep, I went to the bar hoping to find Selena's best friend. If anything, she can tell me what's up, and maybe give me a little backup if I needed it. I adjusted my glasses and saw her mopping up some unknown liquid off the dark brown wooded floor.

"What pretty-boy?" She said as she looked up shocked.

"We need to talk." I said grabbing her wrist.

"What? Are you gunna get me shot too?" She rolled her eyes and backed away from me.

"What do you mean?" I said urgently and puzzled.

"You are so stupid, so so stupid for a nerd." She said and we walked and sat down in a booth in a corner. I followed her underneath the blue-ish hazy lighting. I was so nervous and my eyes were searching nervously completely paranoid with everything.

"What do you mean. I am tired of games." I growled not looking in her eyes because I wasn't sure if I could handle what she was going to say next.

"They want to hurt you, I know Selena and you were never a part of this 'world' until Lucas killed himself and you went to jail. But, ever wonder why he was so spastic? Huh? Because he lived and breathed this life we are all entangled in, he was good at hiding it. But they were after him, and his family. So he just figured it was easier for him to kill himself than let people like Xavier and Marcus do it. That's when Selena found him, so he tried to leave the Gang life behind and that made the Gang world so mad, you don't just leave. So they didn't let him. Lucas went mad-"

"What does this have to do with me?" I cut her off.

"Hold on, I'm getting there. Lucas went mad. And eventually he died. We all know that. But he owed people and how could he pay them back if he was dead? Well anyway they decided to leave him alone for a while until Selena had to search for a new identity, it just so happened, her boyfriend became Marcus. You got out of jail, you 'killed' Lucas. Selena told Marcus that so he wanted to hurt you for hurting Selena, if you will. Also, that means since you killed Lucas, everything he owed them can be payed for by....you." She said and looked me straight in the eyes.

"Well what do they want?! Money?! I can give them money!! How much do they want?" I said scared, I lost everything I had in life and all they wanted was money?!

"No, they don't want that anymore. They have waited years and now they just want to make sure they torture you. But trust me, for all we know Selena isn't dead, they haven't found the body. So that can mean anything." She said filing her nails like it doesn't phase her that her best friend is kidnapped and rumored to be DEAD.

"Okay so what are we going to do? We can't just wait it out. We have to do something." I said slamming my fist on the table.

"I know." She smirked. She slowly slid a gun onto the table from her purse.

"I know lover boy this is outside of the realm. But this is a game and we gotta play." she chuckled running a finger over her pistol.

"Uh-uh, I-I..... For Selena." I stuttered and cleaned the lenses of my glasses eyeing the gun nervously. My suspenders on my pants suddenly felt uncomfortable and I tried to adjust them by pulling them away from my body.

"Let's go." She said and stood up with the gun in her hands.
