So, she joined Jace, Vasco, Daniel, Mary, and Vin met in the boxing ring of Zack's practice place. Jace had set a box of products in the middle of their circle.

"So, these are the items that the imposters are selling right?" Daniel asked.

"Stockings and Spit." Jace explained. "I got a discount for buying the bundle, and it was still super expensive. They wouldn't budge on meeting in person. These are the items I bought from different sites over social media."

Thinking it was something nutritious, Vasco took a large gulp out of a bottle of pee. He spewed it everywhere. YN, with her heightened instincts, vaulted out of the way, but then staggered against the boxing ring's boundaries. She swayed unsteadily. Luckily no one noticed. Daniel explained how the delivery man had only seen someone with a mask, and the phone number was faked. So was the address and other numbers. It would be difficult to find them.

"No, but they all had something in common. The sellers were different, but its all from the east river. Does that sound familiar to you? That's right, Hostel." Jace explained the function of Hostel, and how only the top members truly belonged to the organization. Fuck, that's me... The rest was the runaway fam. Daniel stood.

"Then, I'll go. I'll join the runaway fam.

"I'll go." Oh. She hadn't realized she had said that out loud.

There was a second of shocked silence, before Vasco shouted, "NO WAY! That's a dangerous organization." YN flinched. "They make people drink piss"

"Girl, tf are you going to do?" Mary interrogated.

Well... what am I going to do...I have no interest in confronting Hostel, Olly Wang, or the others... "Forget it then. You aren't going to find shit, Daniel. There's hundreds of runaway kids, hundreds of runaway fams. Most of them don't even know about what Hostel does, they're just desperate to make money by any means possible so that they can have a family. You're deluding yourself if you think that you could pass as one. You don't know what it's like to fight to survive."

Daniel bristled, looking pissed at her for the first time. "You don't know what I know. I've been homeless recently... And I lived with runaways while I was there."

No tf you didn't. You lived with an 'underground society'. People who wanted their lives back. Not people doing everything to escape them.

"Whatever," she muttered, feeling her adrenaline start to rise. The pill she had taken a few hours ago was beginning to wear off and she could feel flickers of the chemical. That will come in handy for a fight. She didn't want to try to explain her life to Daniel and the others. "Good luck."

She hopped out of the ring and started to leave. The group seemed to shocked at her cryptic outburst to even try to stop her.

Bang. Zack paused his assault on the punching bag, slipping off his gloves. "YN is right. Mira's still crying. Infiltration? I can't wait for that. Whether they're hostel or the runaway fam, I'll kill them all." He walked over and flung an arm around her shoulders, following her out. "I'm catching the boy who cried sheep. Lock the doors behind you."

"I think you mean wolf."

"Shut the fuck up, YN."

They didn't go far, instead perched on the steps of a convenience store. Zack tossed her a can of energy drink which she took one sip of and then handed it back (it was disgusting).

"So what's the plan, delinquent."

"What the plan always is when you try to kill someone." We go for the head. Despite the horrible situation, YN couldn't fight a grin off her face. She was getting the same high she had when she was infiltrating God Dog. Despite the fact that nothing good could come of this, despite the fact that she was fighting for Eli and Yenna's future, this. Would. Be. Fun. "I have no interest in fighting Hostel or whatever, I just want to get my pictures down," she amended. Going for the head would have to wait.
