David's Pov 10 Minutes Later      
I frowned.  I was hearing screaming and yelling from outside my room.

"IT'S MIRE! SHE'S BEEN FUCKING KILLED!" An angry voice yelled. A few seconds later, the sound of something crashing into the wall of my room was what I heard. 

The door to my room flew open and Ryen ran inside. "David. It's Mary. She was just pushed out from the window in her room. Nobody knows who did it. Get up. Get dressed. This kind of thing is going to bring heat we don't need. Everyone's a suspect." He paused and took a deep breath. "We've gotta get out of here."

I blinked blankly at him. "I..".

Ryan flew forward into the room and crashed into the table in the middle of the room.

A tall buff mean looking man with blond hair shook his head. "Nobody leaves until we figure out what the fuck is going on and who betrayed us." He placed the foot he'd kicked out with down and entered the room. "Even if we gotta torture everyone." He pulled out a pocket knife. "I'll chop your fucking balls off until we get the truth." His right eye was twitching.

"Hey. We don't want any trouble." Ryan put his hands up.

"Sucks for you. Trouble came faster than your shrimp dicked father."

I huffed. "You've got a pretty big mouth. And you're annoying, shithead."

"What'd you call me?"

"A shithead, dumbass." 

And then he ran at me with a yell. He swung his knife at my face.

I quickly ducked with a smirk. Once the knife was safely past me, I stood back up and punched him in the face, but, it sent a wave of pain through my knuckles and arm. "Ow." I moved my fist back and shook it.

"DAVID! Let's g-".

The tall man swung his knife down hard onto my wrist. I screamed as blood flew from the large cut. My eyes began to fill with tears from the pain as the man kicked me in the stomach and sent me flying through a nearby window.

Wait. This isn't how I'm supposed to die. Kicked out of a window by some guy with anger management. I watched the ground grow closer. No. I want to live. Fuck that guy. I want to live. I saw something dark black trailing around my body. It felt like I exploded. Or expanded. Or something. And then everyone went dark.

Lucas's Pov
"Dad. Can I go play with Emma and Jacob again?" I hopped around our room like a bunny.

"Yeah. You go ahead." He held his wrench and worked on something big and broken. My dad was a big fixer. He could fix anything broken. He wasn't like normal dads, who were weird and smelly. My dad was cool.

"Yay!" I gave him a big hug and then ran from the room. "JACOB! EMMA!" I yelled and ran down the hallway in search of their room.

"Woah." A female voice said. "No running. You might hurt yo-". And then I was too far away to hear.

"OOF." I slammed into something hard and groaned, closing my eyes and falling to the ground.

"Ow. You should be more careful." I heard Emma say.

I slowly opened my eyes and stood up. "Sorry. I was just really excited."

I heard a laugh from behind me. "Of course you'd be excited. You have a King among you!"

I glanced back and saw Jacob standing there in a bright red sweater and jeans. He had a large golden crown on.

Emma sighed. "Jacob, you shouldn't b-".

"I know." He interupted. "I just wanted to try it on." He rolled his eyes.

Emma frowned. "Right. Totally."

I tilted my head. "Was this a bad time?"

"No. Not at all." Jacob smiled. "Come on. Let's play."

Number One's Pov
"Really? You called me? A dangerous criminal here? Aren't you supposed to be a good guy?" 

"A good girl." The person corrected.

"A good bitch."

"Witch."

"A white one." I smiled through my mask.

"I'm surprised you figured that out."

"It's pretty obvious. You told me that you'd help me get my revenge tomorrow. That you had an orphan that could provide opportunities for me. A female. With an orphanage. Who obviously has some sort of motivation for targeting Charlie and the little group he's in. Like I do."

"Hmph. Whatever. I'll keep that little monster hunter group away from you. Do we have a deal?"

I chuckled. "Well, torturing Layla all day HAS lost it's fun." I nodded and grabbed my aluminum bat. "We have a deal." I began to cackle from joy.

Tom's Pov 20 Minutes Later        
I yawned as I stood inside our HQ. I had just gotten up and walked over here but none of my partners, nor our mentor seemed to be here. And then Gunther walked through the front doors. He was breathing heavily and sweating. I blinked slowly. "Gunther?" He was holding someone in his arms. He looked familiar. And had strange marks on his face. The boy was limp and seemed to be unconscious.   

"I need nurse Lee. Right now. This boy came from a grey skinned giant's neck!" He said. His eyes were wide.

"Gunther....". I didn't know how to respond. This was the most emotional I'd ever seen him. He hardly ever spoke above a whisper.

"I need her. Right now!"

Charlie's Pov
"Here we are. " I informed Alex and the other two. They hadn't said much. Especially that Rashall guy. I was kinda curious about them.

"Hmm. You guys go ahead. There's something I need to do." Alex said quickly, before running off without another word.

"Weirdo." Rashall sighed. "Are we going in or are just gonna stand here all day?" 

"We're going. Jeez." I led them inside through the building until we reached a darker section. After a few minutes, we reached a giant metal door. "Here's our way in. There's cameras so w-".

"Didn't ask. Don't care." 

I huffed and walked up to the red console where the password had to be used to unlock the door. After inputting it, the door made a ping sound and slowly began to open.
