"Let me talk to Reese!" Letty demanded as soon as Missy answered the door.
"Excuse me?" Missy asked caught off guard.
"Let. Me. Talk. To. Reese." Letty said making every word clear.
"Why?' Missy asked copping an attitude.
"That's between me and him." Letty said getting pissed.
"Let, what are you doing here?" Vince asked, as he came to find out who was at the door.
"I need to talk to Reese." Letty said not taking her eyes from Missy.
"And?" Vince asked not getting why the 2 were yelling.
"She wont let me." Letty said pointing at Missy.
"Miss, just let her." Vince pleaded.
"Why?" Missy asked once again.
"Just do it." Vince said giving her a look that told her he'd tell her later.
"Fine, he's in the basement." Missy said stepping out of Letty's way.
As soon as Letty had shut the door to the basement, Missy turned to Vince. "Explain." Was all she said.
"I don't know for sure, but if you plan on living here in peace it was a good idea to let her talk to him." Vince said knowing exactly what she needed to talk to him about. He had been there when the gang broke into her house, they had been staying at Dom's that night when the police came to the door looking for her. They took her to the station, Dom and me went with. She told them that if we didn't she wouldn't go. The police took her aside and asked her some questions, then told her what had happened, the gang had broke into her house and robbed everything, and her mom was in the hospital because of a miscarriage. But the gang wasn't done; about a week after there first attack they came back. Only this time everyone was home, Letty stood by and watched from her hiding place under the stairs as they raped and beat her sister, as they killed her brother, and as they trashed her house. She ran over to Dom's as soon as they had left and told us everything. They never caught who did it; the only thing Letty could remember about them was they all had a tattoo of a scorpion on their calves.
"I know you know." Missy said as she got up and left the room.

"What the-" Reese started when he heard his door slam.
"No, you don't talk." Letty said as she sat herself down in a chair in the room across from him on his bed.
"Excuse me?" Reese asked completely confused.
"Well the way I see it, you, or at least part of you hurt me once. Therefore you don't get to talk, and if I don't like what you have to say I get to hurt you." Letty said.
"How did I-" Reese started once again but was cut off when Letty put her boot into his stomach.
"Naughty naughty." She made a tisk noise.
"See I got some questions for ya. Wanna answer them?" Letty asked pushing down harder with her boot. He just shook his head yes.
"Good, now I know you were involved with the Scorpions. But I want to know, did you kill anyone while you were with them?" Letty asked releasing him.
"Yeah." Reese said his voice barley audible, as he looked at the ground hard.
"A family?"
"Once. The dad was getting in our way, we went to the house. The whole damn family was there, except the dad. But that didn't matter; it would be a warning we decided. There was a little girl, she looked about 10, they beat her and raped her and when they were done they slit her throat." Reese started.
"You bastard!" Letty screamed, not letting him finish as she jumped form her perch on the chair onto him on the bed. "You fucking ass hole!" she screamed as she started beating on him.
"What the hell?" He asked in shock of her sudden out burst.
"You killed my fucking family! My sister, my brother, and a baby that will never get to see light." She screamed still pounding on him, but now tears were spilling from her eyes.
"What? I never killed your family."
"How do you know?" Letty asked as she stopped for a second.
"The family we killed was black, and right after that I quit." Reese said.
"Oh." Letty said climbing off him. "I'm sorry." She apologized as she headed for the door.
"Letty, this is going to sound weird, but im glad you came over."
"Why?" Letty asked giving him a skeptical look.
"Not sure." Reese answered honestly.
"You're a weird one, but I can see why Mea likes you so much."
"Mea likes me?" Reese asked getting excited.
"Didn't know she sweats your balls, huh?" Letty asked sitting back down.
"Wasn't sure, she's with that guy." Reese answered.
"O'Connor? Please, believe me everyone would be happy if she dropped him." Letty said.
"Really? Why?"
"He's an ass to her a lot of the time. Plus even though he let us free, he still broke all our trusts and none of us will ever be able to fully trust him again." Letty explained.
"Oh." Reese said starting tot think that there might be a chance for him and her.
"You like her?" Letty asked.
"Yeah."
"You break her heart, I break you neck." Letty quoted Dom and left.
As Letty was opening the front door to walk out she ran into a hard body, blocking her path. "Excuse me!" Letty said pissed that someone was in her way.
"This is my damned house!" Dillion yelled pissed.
"Don't it make you feel special?" Letty quipped as she shoved past him.
"I'm home-" Dillion stopped himself as he noticed the 3 men sitting on the floor watching a movie with his family.
"Hey!" Kaylee yelled, jumping up to give him a hug.
"What are they doing here?" Dillion asked ignoring her.
"They're staying the night." Rain said giving him a look that dared him to say other wise.
"Fine." Dillion said heading to the kitchen.
"Where you going?" Cory asked.
"Ketchup." Dillion said.
"Ha! I threw it all out!" Cory yelled.
"Fine." Dillion said as he walked back into the living room holding a bottle of relish and some onions.
"Shit!" Rain, Cory, and Missy all yelled at once as they ran from the room.
"Dillion, don't!" Kaylee ordered.
"Yep." Dillion said as he opened the bottle of relish and started to squirt to everywhere and then went to rooms and squirted it all over till the bottle was empty.
"What the fuck is he doing?" Leon screamed as he duct behind a chair.
"When he gets real pissed at Rain or Cory, he squirts food." Kaylee explained as she hid with him.
"Why?" Jesse asked utterly bemused.
"It bugs the fuck out of them." She answered.
"Dillion, knock this shit off or get the hell out!" Missy yelled as she came to the stairs.
"Fine!" He yelled again as he threw the last of his onions at her and stomped out of the house.
