       "Hey Shal...what's Y/n's full name again?" Nobunaga asked. "Y/n Kali Ln/ why?" Shalnark replied to him. "Do you guys know who Kali is?" he asked. "Kali...Hindu goddess of death, darkness and destruction" Feitan said. Everyone looked horrified. "I read about Kali once...how did I let this slip past me?" he asked himself.

    "Did they ever identify the person who was killed in the first fire?" Machi asked. "Dimitris Ricci" Kortopi said. "Didn't he live in apartment 24?" Phinks said. "How is that important?" Shalnark asked. "2+4 is 6" Phinks said. "I don't like this" Franklin said. "I'm hoping that it's just dumb luck, but I have a feeling it's not" Illumi said. "Her address is 45662 NE 14th AVE York New City 62766" Shizuku said. "And?" Feitan asked. "There are five sixes in her address" she said.

    "That Fortunato dude...do you think he's in on all of this?" Phinks asked. "He literally looks like the fallen angel" Kalluto said. "Are we dealing with the spawn of Satan?" Shalnark asked. "His name's Lucifer" Chrollo finally spoke. Everyone went silent and looked at him. "Did you know all this time?" Phinks asked. "Yes" Chrollo responded nonchalantly. "...who else knew?" Nobunaga asked. "All you said was that you were going to that ball!" Feitan said angrily.

    "I didn't know when I went to the ball" Chrollo maintained his calm demeanor. "Where did you go after the ball?" Machi tried to stay calm, but she was suppressing so many emotions. "The Grand Hotel, with Y/n" he said. "...you willingly put yourself in danger" Shalnark said. "Did she do anything to you there?" Illumi asked. "We had sex and she told me" Chrollo explained.

     "You son of a-" Franklin held Phinks back. "You slept with her, knowing she was this and never told us anything, this could have been prevented!" Phinks continued. "It isn't our place to be playing heroes" Chrollo said. "Then why didn't you tell us anything?" Franklin asked. "Because she isn't going to be like this for long" Chrollo explained.

     "What the hell are you talking about?!" Feitan asked. "...serves us right...we should've dropped this once we realized what we were facing" Machi rolled her eyes and left the room. "Ma, where are you going?" Shalnark asked. "I'm done, you always did things for the spider, but that seems out the window now" Machi pointed to Chrollo. "Everything I do is for the spider, this isn't an argument, now if you'd like to join me and save Y/n, you're free to come" Chrollo said.

     There was a tense tension in the air, Shizuku, Illumi, Kalluto, Kortopi, Shalnark and Bonolenov sided with Chrollo. "You're all making a mistake, Hisoka should've killed you when he had the chance" Machi turned her back on Chrollo. "You don't mean that" Chrollo smiled at her. "You don't know what I mean" Machi's blood was boiling.

      Feitan, Nobunaga, Phinks and Franklin followed Machi out. And like that, the Troupe was broken. Shizuku looked concerned as she watched her comrades leave. "Shi, don't worry about them, we have something to focus on, they'll come back to us" Chrollo reassured her. "Y/n's in the police's custody right now, she's on the good side of a lot of people. I won't be surprised if the mayor tries to bail her out" Chrollo explained his plan. "Why don't we let him bail her out?" Illumi asked. "It may not work besides, we can break her out" Chrollo explained calmly.

      "If we get caught the penalty is pretty harsh" Shalnark reminded him. "Which is why we need to be mindful, I trust all of you" Chrollo said. "Shizuku and Illumi, you will take care of security and I will take care of Y/n with Shalnark. Kortopi, Kalluto, and Bonolenov will be on lookout" Chrollo said.

       And like that, they were back to York New. There was a lot of construction and people were trying to undo the mess that Y/n had created. They snook into the police station and Shizuku and Illumi took out the guards. Chrollo and Shalnark found Y/n's cell and watched as she laid on the ground, almost lifeless. They kneeled at either side of her. Shalnark poked one of his antennas in Y/n's arm and Chrollo broke the chains before waking her up.

     The two of them took a few steps back a waited for whatever was going to happen. Y/n slowly rose up and looked around, before pulling the antenna out of her arm. "What happened" she asked Chrollo. "We...don't really know" he replied to her. "Explain what you can" she replied sternly. "You just started destroying York New...we don't know why" Shalnark said. "How bad was it?" Y/n asked. Both Shalnark and Chrollo stayed silent. The silence said it all.

    "I need to get out of here, you guys need to get out of here, how many of you are there?" Y/n asked, in a rush to get up. "Seven" Chrollo said calmly. Y/n got to her feet and grabbed onto Chrollo's hand. "You guys have to come with me" she said, walking out of the cell. Shalnark and Chrollo exchanged a nervous glance. "Can you guys get us a ride?" Y/n asked. "I'm on it" Chrollo replied to her.

     Within a couple of moments, a car pulled up. Y/n wasn't used to getting this treatment from someone else. "Hop in guys!" Bonolenov rolled down the window. Kalluto was sitting in the passenger seat. Everyone else piled into the car and Y/n was squeezed next Chrollo. Their elbows were pressed against each other and it reminded them of the night at the hotel. 

     "Okay I'll tell you guys where to go" Y/n finally spoke up to take her mind off of things. "Okay backseat driver" Bonolenov said. "Watch who you're talking to" Y/n said. "My bad ma'am" Bonolenov apologized quickly. "Okay make a left here and then you're gonna be a road for about ten minutes and then you make a right when you see a spacing in the bushes" Y/n explained. "Goddamn do you live in the middle of nowhere?" Illumi asked. "Yes" Y/n replied. They arrived at the mansion and everyone was in awe. Y/n opened the gate and she welcomed everyone into the house.
