"What do you mean, Teresa quit?" Bella practically shouted when Margo told her.
"Exactly that. Teresa said that she has to look after her family. She thinks that she has already gotten them in danger because of her involvement. Although she says she's sorry." Margo repeated. Bella wasn't taking the news well.
"You can't freakin quit the fugitives! You'd have to die to do that! Are you sure she didn't die and you're just covering it up with 'she quit'?" Bella turned quickly on Margo, pointing her finger accusingly.
Margo sighed and nodded. "Yes, I'm totally just covering the fact that Teresa died cause I didn't think it was that important to tell you." She said sarcastically. Bella shook her head.
"This is no time for sarcasm, Margo. We are down by two, and some random guy told his freakin henchmen to stalk us and then attack as at a random club. Plus, the police hate us, and freakin Raaj who hates my dad is after us and... and.." Bella obviously had thought she had more things to list but realised there was nothing else.
"First off, we are down by one. Carlo is a freakin basket of flowers who likes shooting his friends, remember?" Margo cut in before Bella could find another thing to list.
"Oh right. I should kill him. That's it! I have way too many people to kill. I need a list. Like a long list." Bella threw her hands down on the table, making a loud bang.
"Of course you do." Margo rolled her eyes heavenwards. But she still let a small smile slip onto her face.
Bella started scrambling around in draws, pulling out blank pieces of paper. She then went over to the registration desk, and grabbed a pen.
"Margo, help me out here. I'm gonna say who I need to kill and you're gonna write it down." Bella said, still concentrating on finding a pen that worked to Bella's liking.
"Can't you do both?" Margo whined.
"No, I need to think, and when I really need to think, sometimes I get skittish and I start walking around." Bella answered, shoving the pen and paper over to Margo. Margo sighed inwardly and sat down.

Bella's List of People Need Killing

Margo wrote the title down and Bella gave her the nod of approval.
"Hmm. Let me see..." Bella looked up, as if the answers she needed were on the roof. "There's Carlo, may as well put him down first, seeing as I can remember him." Margo nodded and scribbled Carlo's name down.
"Then there is Raaj. He's so freakin annoying. Plus, he blew up a hospital. Man, he's just gotta pay." Bella rambled on a bit about how annoying Raaj was as Margo wrote his name down.
Bella continued listing and giving a few reasons for each one for a while until she ran out.
"Wait, add something to that title. Add 'or should kill'." Bella said suddenly. Margo groaned. She added it to the title just the same.

Bella's List of People Need Killing (or Should Kill)

Bella nodded. "Now add Joseph. Then Teresa-"
"Teresa?" Margo cut in confused.
"Well I should kill her for leaving the fugitives, but I'm not going to am I?" Bella answered. "Then add my Dad."
When Margo was done, Bella scanned it over then nodded. "I like it."
"Good, cause I'm not doing it again." Margo stood up and stretched, having sat there for a while. "What are the last two spaces for?"
"In case I need them." Bella said simply.
"You are one strange person." Margo smiled.
"I know." Bella replied proudly.
