In a sense, Ermellina couldn't help but feel like she was born to die. She was only 27 when a sword was shoved into her chest. She was only 27 when she was left to die alone on a hot summer day.

She had died for her third time before she met the man named Nicolò, who unknowingly suffered the same fate as her. They went to war together and they left together with a new addition to their family.

Yusuf, the man they had killed over and over again, (he got in some very good slices too) had too, fallen the same ill fate of living with immortality.

Later they met another woman who went by the name Andromache, offering a spot on the ship she was riding in and to join her.

The two men looked over to the short brown haired girl waiting for her to answer, as they always have seeing as she was older than them.

Ermellina tilted her head eyes boring into Andromache's. A minute later the girl nodded her head signaling they'd be joining Andromache.

It took them decades until they found what they thought would be the last addition to their little group. Sebastian was a peculiar man but Ermellina dusted it off to the fact that he's lost may children so recently.

The only thing that has been clouding Ermellina's mind was the thought of being in Nicolò's and Yusuf's arms. And to get to them she had to start hitchhiking to a marine military base in the middle of ass creek dust town.

Eventually, she made it to see the aftermath of a wild Andromache. That being two freshly knocked out marines. Ermellina couldn't help but smile to herself. Not because of the two randomly knocked out men but because Andromache would be close.

It took ten minutes. Ten long, excruciating minutes until she found the lone humv and two woman bickering. It took everything she had in her to not burst out laughing at their situation. The younger woman, the one in her mind dreams, had a bloody forehead as if she was shot in the back of the head.

She was beautiful, yes, but now she had one thing in mind, Nicolò and Yusuf, here I come. And without much strength to hold it back, she did burst out laughing, who wouldn't?

Andromache, wide-eyed turned her body, gun raised and shot the girl in the shoulder. Ermellina let out a grunt as she felt the bullet go through and through. Andromache watched her wide-eyed as she groaned out,

     "Damnit Andromache, what the hell was that for?" it took seconds for her wound to heal and even less time for Andromache to run into her open arms. The girls shared a meaningful embrace as the elder left the hug first.

     "You know, you can call me Andy now Lina," she smirked. Ermellina- or better known as Lina gave her a warm smile as the grudge she wished to hold was gone. She had always called them by their names unknowingly.

     "I've missed you," the younger immortal pushed. Andy looked down before looking into the girl's eyes, "Me too".

     Ruining their little bonding moment a cough came from behind Andy. The pretty girl she had been trying to find was watching them with a mildly confused face.

Lina held a tiny smile on her face as she walked up to the girl who, surprisingly, started their conversation, "You were also in my dreams too? Who are you?" she questioned.

"My name is Ermellina, but you can call me whatever you like, and yes I was in your dreams because I'm like you, " Lina made sure that the girl was understanding her as she spoke.

Looking back she saw Andy walking back into the humv and getting in the driver's seat. Now looking back towards the younger girl she nodded her head towards the vehicle, "Come on, she'll probably leave without us if we don't hurry up."

     Jogging up to the car the girls both raced to the front seat with a small smile on their faces. Lina let out a victory squeal as she jumped into the humv, while the girl groaned and got into the back.

It didn't take long until Andy pulled the vehicle into what looked like a private cargo plane for drug runs. Regardless they all left the jeep and walked into the plane getting used to what they would be seeing quite a bit.

     Once they all entered almost all their eyes immediately went to the huge pile of cocaine sitting in a corner. Lina paused before sitting down and relaxing, something she well deserved.

     The other girl, on the other hand, wasn't so used to the type of transportation the group sometimes used.

     "Put those on," Andy spoke, and Lina caught glimpse of rolled up clothes before she closed her eyes.

     "Where are you taking me," she questioned. Lina let out a small groan, childishly covering her ears.

     Andy rolled her eyes at her behavior and answered, "Paris." The youngest on the cargo plane's eyes widened.

Andy seemed to debate it but ended up saying, "You've got blood in your hair."

The girl deadpanned, staring at Andy, "I wonder why."

     Lina let a smile come up to her lips, watching and listening to them just gets better and better. It wasn't too long until Nile had to point out the obvious, "This guys a drug runner, " she said eyeing the massive amount of cocaine behind them.

     Andy continued what sounded like organizing their space when she began her explanation, "Well, sometimes you gotta work with people you don't wanna eat with."

     "I this even safe?" The new girl asked appalled.

     "Does it really matter, " Andy spoke rhetorically.

     "Technically if it wasn't we would just come back to life anyways," Lina shrugged.

     Andy left the plane soon after that to promptly to take a call from who she presumed as Sebastian, only because Nicolò and Yusuf never really liked technology.

     It wasn't even five minutes later that Andy was back with the company of screaming men and the engine start. Lina buckled in, the only reason being she didn't want to be thrown around while trying to sleep. She hasn't gotten much of that either.

     And, while successful, Lina managed to sleep through half of Andy and the younglings little fight catching her name.

     She simply shrugged her eyebrows before quietly asking, "Can I have one of the vodkas in the box?"
