(told in perspective of Cassandra)
I woke up, eyes red, tired body, in a chair. Wait what?! I started to wiggle in the ropes tied around my wrists. My brain half off, the back of my head had a throbbing pain. Something moved in the shadows.
"Wa-it whosa therrrrr." I stumbled on my words. My eyes started to adjust to the dark and I managed to see a big, wide, grin in the back of the room. I half expected it to be the waitress from earlier but something told me that this wasn't her. His shoulders were broad, he held a baseball bat, his face carried a smirk, the biggest one I'd ever seen.
"WHO ARE YOU?" The other half of my brain switched on. I felt around the ropes, seeing if there was a way to untie them.
"We are the rising lights in the sky; we are the untouchable; we are the un-noticed; we are... the Estrellas." He leaned into the light which revealed a man, about Brutus' age and height, wearing a star shaped scar surrounding his left eye. He smirked when he saw me looking at it. "Don't you know it's rude to stare young lady?" He started to walk towards me and that's when I knew that I had three seconds before he would beat me to a pulp. I quickly slipped the knots, picked up the chair, threw it at him. Then, while he was recovering, I made a run for it.
I thought to myself while running, "Who was that guy? What did he want with me? Where did that scar come from? And most importantly: Who the heck are the Estrellas?" I was almost out of their strange camp when someone snuck up behind me, holding a taser, I felt a wave of pain flood over me and I fell to the ground.
"You shouldn't have ran." And there, standing above me was the waitress from earlier. I gave an exasperated sigh and I went unconscious.
