God, could this be anymore awkward?

"No, it can't be anymore awkward than this." Dante said.

shit.

"Alright, what's the plan for getting my daughter back?"

"We have a location so all we need to do is storm the place and get her back." Dante said, clearing his throat.

"They probably have tons of security as well as Russian and Mexican mafiosos. I think that Hernandez and Mozorov teamed up, but who kidnapped Lucía?"

"There's only one way to find out."

"Get some rest, we leave at 8. Train, rest, do whatever you please but be ready." Don said, dismissing us all.

"Lorenzo, wait. I want to talk to you."

Oh shit.

"How are we sure that we can trust Dante? We barely know him." Don explained.

"That's the thing Don. We aren't sure, but Lucía trusts him. Although I don't know your daughter well, I trust her. We have to at this point, he told me that she contacted him."

"Alright. Also, don't think I forgot about your little stunt back in New York. Lucía may have forgiven you, but I'm watching you."

"Sí Don."

He nodded and I returned it just as he left the room, leaving me alone with my thoughts.

Lucía POV

I woke up, my head resting on the wall beside me as I was greeted with three grey walls and a pounding headache.

It had been a few hours or so, I couldn't really tell. Last thing I remember, guy four had come to play boxing with me. He had come three times today. The rest of them only came once.

The door creaked open and I hugged my knees towards me but to my surprise, Kim walked in.

"What do you want?" I said, rolling my eyes at her.

"Do me a favour and just listen to me before you say anything." Kim replied, scoffing at my child-like behaviour.

"Fine, what is it then?"

"I want to help you escape. I know it sounds weird, but I want to help. I need to get out of here. For the sake of my baby. For my sake."

"So, how are we gonna do it?"

"Wait- you okay with this?"

"Well, I'd rather help you escape with me than let guy one, two, three or four best me up again."

She looked as if she was going to say something then stayed quiet.

Wait. What if we-

Are you insane?

It's crazy enough to work.

You could die.

I don't die, I'm me.

What about me?

You're me. We won't die.

What if-

No.

"Wanna learn how to make a bomb?"

Two hours later, ten bombs sat in front of Kim
and I. It seemed impossible, but we (I) had
done it.

"How do you know how to do this?"
