Rakal finally started to see familiar streets and navigated her way back to her apartment complex. She wasn't surprised that people were avoiding her like the plague. She climbed up the stairs and noticed a small box in front of her door. "A... package?" She picked it up and examine it, it didn't have an address, just her full name.

She looked around and quickly got inside. She shredded the box open to see a smartphone in it. Now she was scared, maybe she got this by mistake? No. It had her name on the box. Who could have...?

A hundred thoughts went through her head, she shake them all out and turn on the phone. A notification rings out and she read, "You forgot to leave a phone number...." She pressed it and soon, a second message was sent. "Call me."

Now she was scared, while also face palming to not having the thought of getting a new phone. She was really shaking up as she involuntarily pressed the call button. "H-hello?" She greeted nervously.

"Hello... I found your resume on the street. Very professional, I may add?" A man said on the other end. "Anyways, I read here that you've babysat rebellious kids before. Is that true?" He asked, sounding interested.

"Ugh... yeah... There was a high demand for that where I use to live." Rakal said, a bit more relaxed now, but still. This man's voice gave her the shivers. "I'll take it since you're new here you don't have a cell. Not surprised, after reading who your parents are, I'd probably wanna cut all ties too." He sighed. "Keep the phone. I want you here tomorrow at eight am sharp. Don't be late." He ordered and hung up.

A few moments later, she gets a notification that a ride share is coming to pick her up at 7:30. Rakal sighed, feeling emotionally exhausted. She forgets the gross clothes and her rumbling stomach as she lies down and falls asleep.

A loud alarm wakes Rakal up and she tried to push on the snooze button, but darn, it's one of those puzzle alarms. This man is pure evil. After trying a few times, she sighs in relief when she silents the phone, and admits defeat. She gets up and gets ready. No longer having her nice clothes, she decides to just wear her casual clothes.

She makes herself a breakfast sandwich and starts scarfing it down as she waits for her ride. "Here for Professor Venomous, Miss..?" A young man asked as he pulled up. "Rakal" Rakal confirmed and was signaled in. She crawled in and as soon as she closed the door, the car sped through the city.

A few minutes of silence later and they enter the gates of a mansion. Rakal gasped at the sight of it, she couldn't believe what she was seeing. "It's kinda hard to believe that a villain owns all this." The driver commented. She really shouldn't be shocked, but she still was.

"He did give me a cellphone and I haven't even met him yet." Rakal tries to reason herself. She thought she was done with all this villain nonsense, but she ended up getting looped into another villain's life.

Maybe one even more dangerous to any of her relatives could ever hope to be. They pull up to the driveway and Rakal gets out, looking at her phone to see it was a bit too early. The drive beeps his horn before driving off.

"Come on in, the door's open." Professor Venomous's voice blast through some speakers somewhere, making Rakal jump. "Y-yes sir." She stuttered and followed orders. She rushed to the door and quickly closed it behind her.

She found herself in a casual looking living room with white walls. There was a big TV screen playing some video game. Rakal walked up to the couch to see the same mouse girl she saw just the other day. "Um, hello?" She smiled a little. The little mouse girl grunts, not taking her eyes off the screen.

Rakal decides to sit down as she waits and watch her play. No wonder she didn't wanna lose focus, Rakal started to recognize the game and saw she was fighting the final boss. Rakal was terrible at video games as a kid, so she rage quit after losing a million times, but it looks like this little mouse was a natural.
