Claudia woke up to find herself in her own bed in her apartment. She silently cheered and lazily walked into the bathroom. She washed her face and went into the kitchen making some food.

She made two baguettes with bacon and set them on the kitchen island. She then woke up and knocked on Steven's door.
"Wake up Steven" she said, trying not to disturb him too much. She only received a groan and she sighed.
"Steven please, get up!" He only groaned again and Caludia then sighed out of frustration.

"Fine, but don't blame me if your food's cold by the time you do the impossible and get out of bed." Claudia sighed rubbing the back of her head. She still felt it aching but it didn't hurt as much.

"Is your head doing okay?" She heard her roommate groan,
"Yeah it is... After SOMEBODY SHOVED A DOOR IN MY FACE!" Claudia shouted making it obvious she was joking, they both just giggled and Claudia sighed,
"I'm coming in" so shouted before opening Steven's door and putting the light on.
"Claudiaaaa" she groaned, Claudia just picked up the nearest pillow and started hitting him with it,
"Get up lazy!" She said through slight giggles.
"No" he said whining,
"You're such a child" She sighed before walking out.

There was a knock at the door. A strong and violent knock but a knock none the less, Claudia looked through the peep hole and saw Kaitltn standing there slightly shaking. Without hesitation she opened the door to see Kaitlyn's gaze meet hers.

"Oh thank god! Claudia and... Non existent Steven... You gotta come now! The masters are sick!" Kaitlyn slightly shook. Claudia let her in and got changed and hit Steven's door with all her might,
"You have two choices here genius," Claudia started,
"You can help us, because the MASTERS are SICK," she continued emphasising her point,
"Or you can be as you are now and I'm still gonna beat you up with a pillow" Claudia finished, walking out the apartment building with Kaitlyn.

They both got to the mafia hall and Claudia felt a dark aura from the place, as if it was a wilting flower.

They walked inside as Chloe and Maria were just waking up and Hope was still out cold, Claudia ran over and asked of she was okay, Scarlet and turned round to face her.
"Hopefully, I'm helping Molly currently" Scarlet said as Claudia sighed,
"Your leader alright?" Claudia then asked, she knew her younger sister was in Fox Spirit. They were a kind mafia, more like a hospital than a mafiosa.

Lizzie (Steven's sister) was in Wolf Bite, they were the most aggressive mafiosa and mostly there were fights breaking out every other week. The people were kind, but if you're not careful you could walk out that building with 150 broken bones and 50 bruises and scars.

Dragon Blood was in the middle, they weren't too violent, but not extremely kind in a way. Insult them and sure you'll end up with at least 5 broken bones with minor cuts and bruises but nothing too love threatening.

Claudia looked over to see Hope and she had these wavy black/navy/dark purple lines across her face.

"Poisoned?"
"Yup..."






















"...Faith..." Hope groaned in her sleep...



















"I thought they weren't related?"
























"They aren't..."


































"Are they?"
