Tally breathed out a sigh of relief as the sky light opened silently. The fifteen year old slipped in and onto the catwalk of the old warehouse. Finally. She had finally tracked down the scum. And she was finally going to get even.

Tally pulled her hood up over her head and dropped down to the floor, behind some crates. She peaked out, to get a look around. What she saw was…nothing. Just a crappy table with ashtrays and beer bottles on it. Looked like no one was home. She glanced down at the crate she was hiding behind. FRAGILE it said. Her curiosity got the better of her and she pried it open with a crowbar that was lying next to it. The crate,(like all the others, she assumed) was filled to the brim with illegal substances; guns, cocaine, meth, and other things Tally couldn't identify.

Suddenly a heavy metal door slammed and voices reverberated around the warehouse. Tally gasped and ducked behind the crate, the crowbar grasped tightly in her hand. She tried to control her breathing, but it was easier said than done. She had always dreamed about getting even with the Purple Dragons. But now that she was here, now that she finally had the opportunity, she didn't feel like she could. Maybe it had been a bad idea. She should get out.

I should've gotten out when no one was here. I'm such an idiot. What was I thinking? She thought desperately. Now I'm stuck. They're going to catch me. T-They're going kill me. Her heart hammered against her chest and she squeezed the crowbar, holding her breath as the voices came closer.

"Yo Spuds, get me a beer will ya?" A gruff voice laughed as he sat down in a chair.

"What do I look like, your mom?" An annoyed voice answered. "Get it yourself."

"Who the hell opened the merchandise?" Hun boomed as he came in, his gaze zoomed in on the open crate that Tally opened, and forgot to close. "What did I tell you idiots? Sell it, don't snort it!"

Tally's eyes widened in panic before she closed them. She held her breath. Don't come over here. She chanted. Please, God, don't let him come over here. Don't come over here don't-

Hun lumbered over to make sure all of his merchandise was there when a tuff of white hoodie caught his eyes. He reached down and grabbed it, pulling it up.

Tally yelped in surprised pain as he grabbed her hood, hauling her up.

"Who the hell are you shorty?" Hun asked gruffly. Tally swallowed the dry lump in her throat and turned at an awkward angle to look up at him. He looked like a house compared to her small, 5'3 frame.

"U-Uh…" she croaked, green eyes wide in fear. She shook her head and gripped the crowbar tightly before swinging it back, whacking Hun in the head in a panic. He yelled out of surprise more than pain, but he let go of her. Tally dropped to the ground and made a break for it, only to be cut off by a guy with a red mohawk , gun in his hand. She skidded and scrambled, trying to get away before he grabbed the back of her hoodie and yanked her back. She fell against him and he wrapped his tattooed arm around her neck, cutting off her oxygen as Hun walked over.

"So…little brat trying to steal our stuff huh?" He asked, leaning down to her face. His breath smelled like hard liquor and cigarettes. Tally gasped as she tried to pry the arm crushing her windpipe back, desperately trying to get air.

Tally gasped and tried to shake her head. "I w-wasn't-"

"Save it shrimp." Hun cut her off, shoving her head and yanking the crowbar out of her grasp. "You're in for a world of hurt little girl."

"Hun…she's just a kid..." Vang said warily, "Maybe we should just-" he was cut off by a yell of pain as the guy who was holding her grabbed his broken nose. He had loosened her neck a bit, just enough to give Tally room to slam the back of her head into her captor's nose, effectively breaking it. She gasped as oxygen reentered her lungs and she made a mad dash for the door.

"Aw hell no." Hun growled, grabbing the gun from the ground and taking aim. Tally risked a look back, just long enough to see a gun pointing toward her. Hun took aim and fired.

There was a loud CRACK of the gun and before Tally knew what was happening, the ground rushed up to meet her.
