"Where da hell are we?" a voice asked. "Would youse shut up?" a different voice asked. The lights soon came back on, and Luna froze. Fourteen heads turned towards Luna. "Luna?"

"Mush? Snipeshooter? Sarah?" I asked in disbelief. "How the hell are we here?" Swifty asked. I noticed one face missing from the crowd. "Where's Skittery?" Luna asked. The newsies were silent. "Is anybody gonna answer my question?" I asked crossing my arms. "He's uh not here?" Sarah asked as more of a question. "Where is he?" I asked. They all shook their heads. "We don't know. " Mush said. I looked at them. "What do you mean you don't know where Skittery is?" I asked angrily. "We haven't seen him since he left years ago." Dutchy said. "Nat, give me the file on Jacob Tranior." I said.

Nat looked at her. "Agent number 17675543, case file number 871899." Nat said. The computer showed the file of one of my old friends. "The file says that Jacob Tranior left New York after being kicked out from the Lodging House. He moved to Russia October 12, 1899 and started working in a bakery. Says he was about 22 when he got married to a Alyona Alexandrov , and two years later they had three kids Vasilisa, Renata, and Vladimir Tranior. In 1920 Vasilisa got married to a Ivan Vitsin and in 1925 the two died in a house fire caused by their eldest child Veronika. Says that she suffered from Schizophrenia that she got from her grandfather.

"In 1930 Renata got married to a Maxim Vasin and had two kids Valentina and Viktoriya. There's no information about Vladimir, except that he died at a young age. In 1954 Viktoriya got married to a Dmitri Romanoff. In 1980 the two had a daughter," Natasha explained trailing off at the end. "Who was the daughter?" I asked her. "Me." she said. We looked at her. "What else does it say?" I asked her. "Nothing. After me, there's nothing else. It's almost like he fell of the face of the earth." Nat said. We were silent. "So how does this ting work exactly?" I asked Natasha. "After we found out that you and the others weren't dead, we checked the others, they were on the verge of being dead. So we replicated the serum we used on you guys, but made it a little different. They are technically alive, but they live in the shadow realm." Natasha said. I nodded.

"Has Jack reached you guys yet?" I asked them. "He almost has." Sarah said. I smiled. "You still love him don't you?" I asked her. She nodded sadly. "Don't worry, he still loves you too." I said. "We have been watching Spot, and we have an idea on how to help you." Mush said. I smiled. "Tell me." I said. "Here's the plan.." When Mush was done telling me I looked at Nat. "You willing to help?" I asked her. She nodded eagerly. "Well lets go!" I said. "By guys, talk to you soon." I said. They all waved by, before Nat turned off the thing, I still didn't know the name of. Nat laughed as I ran back to my room. I sat on my bed, waiting for Nat to get here. When she entered my room, she looked at me. "Are you sure?" she asked me. "I'm not the same girl I was all those years ago. I'm ready for a change." I told her. "Okay. Lets do this." Nat said smiling. First we changed the color of my hair. "Okay so, his favorite color is red right?" Nat asked. I nodded. "Then lets go with blue." Nat said. I smiled at her. We quickly dyed my hair, and cut it from the long tangled mess it was. My hair no longer came down to the middle of my back, but fell just below my breasts.

"Okay this might hurt a little." Nat said, holding the needle to my ear. "Don't worry. I can handle pain. I spent 5 years of my life around boys." I told her. She laughed, before she stuck the needle in my ear. "JESUS CHRIST! THAT FUCKING HURT!" I screamed. Nat laughed. "I told you." she said. She quickly pierced six more holes in one ear, and seven in the other ear. "That hurt like a bitch." I said after Nat was done putting in my earrings. "And you want your nose and belly button pierced too?" Nat asked. I nodded. "Now I know what to expect." I told her. She smiled at me. "Okay, this might make you cry a little." Nat said, before she prepped my nose for the piercing. She quickly finished piercing my body, and laughed at me. "You look like your pain." She said. "Thanks Caption Obvious." I said. "Now to change your clothes." She said. "This is going to be fun!" I said. Nat and I walked into my closet to find me clothes for my new look. "Okay this closet is voice activated. All you have to do, is ask the closet to get rid of things and the stuff will go away, and if you want new clothes all you have to do is ask." Nat said.

I nodded. "Okay closet. Get rid of the plaid shirts, and long skirts." I said. The shirts I used to wear quickly disappeared, and so did the long skirts. "Okay get rid of anything that would make me look like a doll. I want rebellious clothes." I said. Soon all that was left in my closet, was ripped jeans, and crop tops. "Okay, get rid of the heels. I can't stand those things." I told the closet. All the heels disappeared, and all that was left were my collection of converse, and my combat boots. "Okay. Now to find something to wear." I said. I looked through the section of jeans, and found of pair of black destroyed jeans. "Hey Luna, what do you think of this?" Nat asked holding up a black crop-top with skeleton hands on the breasts. "I love it! Paired with these?" I asked holding up the jeans. Nat nodded and held up a pair of black combat boots. "Perfect." we both said. "I think we should change my name too." I said. "I was thinking the same thing. Hope won't work for your new look, and Luna's too pure." Nat said. "How about 'Bellatrix' or 'Trixie' for short?" I asked. "I like it." Nat said. "Bellatrix Narcissa Higgins. Has a nice ring to it." I said. Nat nodded. "Well Trixie, shall we go show Spot your new look?" Nat asked me.

"Lets." I said, putting up my walls. I was now the girl I was when my parents died, when I thought my babies died. I was now a shell of the girl I used to be. "Natasha!" A voice said. Nat turned around and smiled. "Hi Clint." she said. "Hey. Who's this?" Clint asked. "This is one of the new agents, Trixie." Nat said. "Trixie wasn't on the list of new recruits. For the girls it was Alicia, and Hope." Clint said. "I am Hope. I've just changed." I told Clint. He looked confused, but Nat told him the plan. "Oh, okay." Clint said. "Wanna join us? The more in on the plan, the better." I asked. "Sure. If Nat warmed up to you this quick, she trusts you, and if she trusts you, so do I." Clint said. I nodded. "Okay, lets go show Spot." I said. Nat smirked and the three of us walked off to the mental department. Her friends were in for a surprise.
