Where are they taking me? What is going on?! During the shootout at The Academy, Hazel had managed to get ahold of Klaus whilst he was distracted and threw him into the trunk of their car. He had just gotten out of the bath and was still in his towel with duct tape over his mouth, muffling his desperate screams. The car suddenly came to a halt, and the trunk opened. He came face to face with his masked captors and began screaming, hoping that somebody nearby would hear and rescue him.


Cha-Cha pulled Klaus out of the car, and the two kidnappers rushed him inside of their hotel room, tying him to a wooden chair and removing the duct tape from his mouth. "Make one scream, and you're dead," Cha-Cha threatened. "What am I doing here? Who are you, people?" The junkie asked. Hazel sharply hit him in the back of his head, making Klaus whimper like a kicked dog.


"Do you know someone named Number Five?" Cha-Cha asked, slightly adjusting her mask as she stood in front of him with arms folded across her chest. Even though Klaus didn't have a good relationship with his brother, he wasn't going to reveal his whereabouts. "I-I don't know, I haven't seen him in so long," he stuttered, hoping that they would believe his answer. "Liar!" Hazel growled and grabbed Klaus's hair, almost ripping it out of his head. "Get the wire, guess we'll have to do this the hard way," Cha-Cha commanded, looking over at her partner.


Hazel complied and handed it to her. Cha-Cha walked behind the chair and tightly wrapped the wire around his neck, nearly choking him to death. "Number Five! Where is he?" She growled into his ear. "Don't... Stop... I'm almost there!" Klaus gagged, trying to take a breath in. Out of the corner of her eye, Cha-Cha caught a glimpse of something that she did not want to see, especially from their abductee. "Is that a?" She gasped. Hazel walked over to her and glanced down, assuring her it was indeed what she suspected.


"Ew!" She gagged, removing the wire from Klaus's neck as he let out a breath of air again. "Nothing like a little strangling to get the blood flowing, am I right?" He laughed to himself. "What's so funny, asshole?" Hazel growled, hitting him in the back of the head once more. "You've learned absolutely nothing! I mean, nobody tells me shit. The truth is, I'm the one person in that house nobody will even notice is gone. You assholes kidnapped the wrong guy!"


The two assassins looked at each other in exasperation, wanting to shut him up. "Let's waterboard him," Cha-Cha suggested as she grabbed a rag from a small wooden box. Hazel grabbed a gasoline can full of water and watched as Klaus struggled as they poured the water and blinded him with the rag. Unfortunately for them, their plan to shut him up did not go as planned as Klaus continued to talk and thanked them for finally giving him water.


"Come on!" Hazel groaned as he and Cha-Cha walked to the bathroom to talk in private. "This is brutal! What the hell is wrong with this guy?" "He's a freak like his brother," Cha-Cha sighed, leaning up against the tiled wall. "He's more of a freak than that girl who can shoot fire out of her mouth," Hazel said as he washed his face in the sink. "What is she, a dragon? Who shoots fire out of their mouth, seriously?" Cha-Cha scoffed. "They've should've warned us that this was an atypical assignment," Hazel complained about the company that sent them after Five.


"Come on. We do the job, and we move to the next, just like we always do. Remember Trinidad? We worked that guy solid for what? Two days, two nights?" Cha-Cha tried to convince him. "How could I forget Trinidad?" Hazel nodded, remembering one of their last missions. "Come on," she said, motioning them to go back to torturing their victim.

Back at the Academy, Dusk searched high and low for Klaus, but with no luck. "Hey Allison, have you seen Klaus anywhere?" she asked as she walked into the living room to see her sister on the floor picking up the broken pieces of glass. "No, I haven't seen him since the meeting earlier. Why do you ask?" "I'm worried about him. I've looked everywhere, and he's nowhere to be found," the raven explained, beginning to bite her fingernails in anxiety.


"He's probably out getting high like he usually is. It wouldn't surprise me," Dusk looked over at Diego in shock at his carelessness about their brother's disappearance. "Diego, you're not even concerned about him? He's one of us, I thought you would at least have the decency to search!" Dusk scoffed. "Well, the guy never listens to anyone, so I don't worry about him too much," He responded.


"Well, you seem to care about everyone else but him," She muttered under her breath. Diego looked up at the raven in frustration, forgetting what she was still doing up at this time of night. "Why do you care about him so much? He's just a junkie!" Diego questioned. This enraged Dusk to the point where she felt like she could boil over like a tea kettle. "Say that again. I dare you!" She growled, grinding her teeth together.


"Why do you care about him so much? He's just a junkie!" Diego repeated slower as he continued to irritate his powerful sister. "Why do I care about him?! He may be on drugs, but that does not make him a junkie! I care about him because I actually give a shit about what he's doing, unlike you! Why else do I care about him? BECAUSE I FUCKING LOVE HIM!" She shouted. She let out a gasp as her confession escape her lips, wanting to cram the words back into her mouth. 


But it was too late.


"You love him? " Allison asked, stunned by her sister's admission. "N-no! You're crazy!" She denied. "I heard a rumor that you admitted the truth about Klaus," She said, a  nearly invisible speech vortex flying towards Dusk, making her eyes roll into the back of her head. "Every time I think about him, I can't help but imagine kissing him the way we did when we were 15. He's one of the few people who understands me. I'm just worried he won't feel the same,"


Allison was surprised. Her second sister really was in love with Klaus. "What the hell, Alli? Why did you do that?" Dusk growled. "It was the only way to get you to talk," She admitted. The raven growled before walking out of the room. But she came back a couple of seconds later, her eyes the color of blood.


"If you dare say a word to anyone about this, I'll burn you in your beds when you're sleeping!" She hissed before retreating upstairs to hide from her embarrassing speech.
