After that very enlightening dream, I went downstairs to have breakfast.

"Hello peasants." I greet everyone and grab a plate of bacon with 2 slices of toast and 2 sausages. Sitting down at the table I grab Michael's glass of mango juice and set it next to my food.

"Hey." Someone looks grumpy.

"Thanks for the pouring me some juice Michael, you're a peach." I take a sip of the juice and wink at him while he glares at me.  "Soooo what's on the agenda today?"

"You kids are going back to school shopping. " Mabel announces as she enters the room.

"Wait huh? Isn't that in two weeks?" I look at Mabel shocked.

"No honey." Ohk maybe 5 weeks. "School is on Monday." And like that the table was silent.

"WHAT?" We all stood up and looked at her. Excuses coming in 3,2,1 and.......

"I need to look over the drug shipment that's coming in soon as the underboss. Can't go to school, sorry." Brava Kevin on that lousy excuse. The drug shipment he's talking about already came in and is in the process of being distributed to local gangs. The gangs have to sell the drugs and hand 50% of profits to the Mafia or face deadly consequences. Think of them as associates. Not an actual part of the Mafia but work under the Mafia.

Michael gets real chatty when he's drunk.

"I still have to chat with Craig Domicov about those military grade weapons we were supposed to receive two weeks ago. " Seriously Michael we both know that those weapons are sitting in the fish warehouse two blocks away. Craig Domicov is the head of the Russian Mafia and oddly enough, Michael and Craig are in good books with each other. Apparently the Italian Mafia and Russian Mafia are the two biggest Mafias in the Northern Hemisphere. They keep the other smaller ones like Chicago, New York, Canada and British Mafias weak and dependant on them.

How do I know this? Like I said, Michael gets real chatty when he's drunk.

"I actually have this programming thing that I have to work on so I can't go to school. " She's talking about the Find Your Enemy app we've been working on since we got here. It's almost done.

"Stacie what's your excuse?"Mabel raises her eyebrow.

"Don't want to be the reason people get murdered?" Shrugging my shoulders I go back to my breakfast.

"Well people you are going on Monday and Stacie, Alex you might wanna go see your parents today." Oh yea that. So I guess it's time to fill you in on what happened 2 weeks ago when we went back home.

FLASHBACK

"So mom, dad and annoying people who are my siblings, I need to tell you all something. " Fiddling with my fingers I look as my mom nods her head for me to continue.

"So as you know that the school got bombed?" Everyone nods. "And how the high school I got assigned to is across town?" Everyone nods again.

"Well you see,mi sto muovendo con un mio amico che vive vicino alla scuola."

(I am moving in with a friend of mine who lives near the school.)

"Stacie, repeat that again." Dad looked at me confused. Yea when I'm nervous I have a tendency of speaking in other languages.

"Je déménage avec un de mes amis qui vit près de l'école." Dang it.

(I am moving in with a friend of mine who lives near the school.)

"Sorry what I meant was 私は学校の近くに住んでいる私の友人と一緒に動いています。. " I cringe as they look at me concerned.
