"Fucking shit, be a little gentle. One of you kind of shot me." I winced as Wildcat hoisted me up.

"Stop squirming and maybe I wouldn't have to fight you." He sat me down in a chair. "Stay." He sat in a chair beside me. On the other side of me was the guy in the monkey mask that took my hammer. They started conversing among themselves, and I figured his name was Lui.

"Alright." The leader, Vanoss, said. His owl mask covered his expressions. "Time to figure out who's causing us trouble. At least, under the mask."

I grabbed the bottom of my mask with both hands and pulled it down. Wildcat stood up, and attempted to get it off. When I wouldn't budge, he grabbed my left wrist. I instinctively went to grab my pocket.

"We took your knife, so don't even try." Wildcat sounded irritated. He grabbed my other wrist and put it in the same hand.

I started squirming and scooting the chair. When that didn't work out, I kicked.

Eventually, between the squirming and the kicking, I finally hit him in the crotch. He instantly let go of my wrists and groaned. I heard some chuckles, but they stopped when he glared at them.

He groaned in frustration. He grabbed my wrists again and put his knee over my legs so I couldn't kick anymore. In one swift motion, he took off my mask and set it on the table.

I glared at him and blew my hair out of my face. I faced the rest of them. "Congratulations. You saw my face." I scoffed. "I don't see how that helped with anything. Also, which one of you fucks cut off my shirt?"

"Next time I'll just let you bleed out, then." I saw Wildcat roll his eyes from beneath the mask.

"Pig."

"Bitch."

"Anyway," Vanoss interrupted. "So. Pip, you've been on our radar for a while now. To put it briefly, you've killed some of our favourite business partners, and we can't have that."

"So what? You're going to kill me? Because one of your goons already tried. Why not just let him finish me?"

"We think we can get some use out of you." He stood up. "The initial idea was to ransom you, but you don't have a boss. We could possibly trade you, but now with that bullet hole, you wouldn't be worth much." I rolled my eyes. "So, instead, you're going to do some of our business. Congratulations."

"Over my dead body." I scoffed.

"See, Vanoss, I told you she wouldn't do it." Wildcat stated. "You don't just shoot someone and expect them to join your team. I say we sell her off, even if we don't get a lot."

I shuddered, thinking of some random men examining me, as if I was some sort of livestock. "Do I not get a say in this?" They all looked at me expectantly. "Okay, I propose, that I work for you, but, after a certain time, I want to be able to leave."

Vanoss seemed to consider this for a moment. "Okay. I'll set everything up tomorrow." He looked at Wildcat. "Go grab her one of your shirts."

He opened his mouth to object, but closed it immediately. He left the room, mumbling something under his breath.

A couple minutes later, he came back, a shirt in his hand. He handed it to me, and I put it on. Nothing too special, just a dark gray shirt that was super big on me.

After that, I was dismissed. I picked up my mask, not bothering to put it on, and stood up. When I started walking, I felt the tremendous pain that I forgot was there.

I took a deep breath in and winced. I knew I was taking too long. A moment later, someone touched my shoulder. I whipped my arm around, and ended up hitting someone's chest.

I turned around to glare at the person, who was wearing a hockey mask.

"Feisty." He chuckled. "I'm just leading you to your room. You seem to be having a lot of trouble." He led me out of the room. "And besides," he said when the door closed, "it's downstairs."

"Fucking throw me down them now." I groaned. "Who are you?"

"Well, I'm Delirious. Piggy is Wildcat. Monkey, Lui. Other monkey, Mar--"

"I meant under the masks." I interrupted before he could go on. There were too many people for that.

"That's a secret." He winked and laughed. "Well, we're at the stairs. How do you want to do this?"

I sighed. "Is throwing me down off the table?"
