  In the distance, a sign that read 'Triad Industries' can be seen. The door swings open revealing a curly haired man. He smiles devilishly and wanders his eyes to the many workers at the industry.

"Gather your weapons." He tells them. They all turn their attention to the him. "The Tribrid is coming. And so is her friends." They all nod and head into the weapon room.

"How are you so certain they will come?" A male voice asked.

"Because, the second I revealed my identity to Elijah. I knew it wouldn't be long till Hope figured out who I was." Clarke smirked.

"So you want them to come here, just so that you can push Hope into Malivore and get rid of him, once and for all?" The man said.

"That's the plan. Then she would be stuck here with her family that's alive and I will be free. It's a win win." Clarke explained.

"But you would also be stuck here." The other man told him.

"I don't care about that. I don't have anything for me back there. This is a fresh new start at life." Clarke reasoned. "Don't you want that for yourself as well? Not to work with them? Malivore and the Necromancer?"

"I don't care, as long as I can get what I want. And Malivore and The Necromancer? I was never even working with them. I was just using them to get what I want." The man said.

"And what is that you do want?" Clarke asked.

The man shushed his lips with a smirk, "it's a secret." He left.

Hope just finished putting in her shoes and as Lizzie and Josie did the same they opened the door to leave. Only to be met with the woman that owns the hotel.

"Hi." Hope said in shock.

"Hello, I've come to talk to you about payment issues. Head with me back to my office?" The woman said.

"Um, me and my friends were about to go somewhere..." Hope trailed off.

"It'll only take a second, I assure you." The white haired lady insisted.

The three teens followed her into the office. They all sit down on fancy black leather chairs. The woman took a seat at her desk infront of the three. She started typing ferociously on the keyboard.

"I've come to notice that we haven't received any payments from your account. But it says here, you been using the same hotel room for up to 2 weeks. Which is the limit for out hotel rooms. On top of that, your transactions remain at $0.00." She explains. "I've asked the counter woman if you've payed with cash and she said that you have not. This all must be a trouble with your card payment, so we do also take cash."
