Molly ran to the fax room of Wizards with a binder. "No, no, no. Crap." Molly takes her phone out and sends:

Avalanche!

to the group chat. "I'm getting lunch; want anything?" Molly asked Tina.

Tina looks up from her desk towards her assistant, "No, enjoy your lunch."

Within 15 minutes, Amy and Alex had arrived at the Hostel. Gert, Chase, Hana, Nico, Karolina, and Molly sat in the dining room. "We got a problem." Molly drops the file on the table. "You, guys, all know how I have access to Tina's work email. Well, I found an email that was spammed…"

"Junk mail?" Nico looks up, "You had us all come up here for a junk mail?"

"Look at the sender's name." Molly pointed out, "Flores M., ring any bells? He's claiming that he has evidence of what happened to the 17."

Amy looks at the file, "Flores? As in the cop that was on PRIDE's payroll? Didn't he die? His kin?"

"Martin Flores…" Alex typed the name on the search bar.

Hana stood behind Alex, "He graduated from the police academy five years ago. His hero is Albert, the cop that PRIDE hired. Flores sent his dear nephew a copy of the files he had against our parents—"

"We have to stop this." Chase sighs. "If my mom goes to jail, what will happen to my sister?"

Molly shook her head, "Isn't it about time that they pay for their sins?"

"You don't mean that," Gert looked at her sister, "do ya?"

"I mean," Molly starts defending herself, "for what 15 years, they've killed numerous people. Why shouldn't they pay?"

Hana raised her hand to quiet everyone down, "If you intended to have them pay, why bring it here and show us? Deep down, Mols, you don't want to…"

"Fine," Molly gritted her teeth, "but what the hell are we gonna do?"

"Okay," Hana sighs, "you, Molly, are gonna go back to work as if nothing happened. Alex, Amy, and I are gonna scour the internet, hack every account this guy has. Gert and Nico take this package to Guita's cousin, Barbara." Hana hands a package to Nico, "She'd know what to do with it. Chase and Karolina, how fast can you, two, type?"

Three hours later, Amy gasped, "He has a thing for you, Hana!"

Chase puts the bag away, "Why does that surprise you? Everyone had a thing for Hana… She was my first crush." Chase admitted.

"Mine too." Alex nods.

Karolina looks at the men, "Yeah, mine too."

"What?!" Nico demanded. "So, what am I the substitute cause you didn't get the Minoru you wanted?"

"Stings, doesn't it?" Amy clarifies, "Being second to her stings."

Hana looks at her sisters, "It was a stupid childhood crush. Do you not get it you are the one Karolina loves? Crushes fade, true love doesn't…" Hana sighs, "God! I sound like mother."

Gert cleared her throat, "We still have to make a plan to get the evidence from the guy."

Hana nods, "Right. What is his type?"

Alex looks up, "You."

Hana rolls her eyes, "What specifically?"

Chase clasped his hands together, "He has yellow fever…"

"Oh dear God." Hana whispered.

"This is good," Amy interjects, "we know his type, where he is going to be tomorrow at noon. You can take the evidence while I distract him."

Hana looks at her sister, "You sure about this?"

"Are you even okay," Nico asked, "right now?"

Amy blinked twice, "Why wouldn't I be?"
