Through a dusty-floored hallway, Sarah led Skyla toward her home. "Don't mind the dust, it's all intentional." She spoke, grinning in amusement as the red flower clip in her hair glistened in the luminescent light from the ceiling. "Can't trust people, you know how it is."

"Confront her once and for all?" Kelly said with a skeptical look. "Kim, maybe you should..." 

Kim glared daggers at Kelly saying "Why are you turning this down?! I'm paying you to do what you say you do best! This is a CRIME! DO THE CRIME!" 

"You're not in your right mind!" Kelly barked back reaching to her side as a reflex, gripping cold steel of her modified 1911 Pistol. "Kim, you aren't thinking about this. I want to trust you, but it's only been a week, you haven't responded to any texts of mine, and now you're asking me to commit kidnapping on a person who very recently just did a very terrible thing to you. You don't want this life, Kim. Remember?" 

Kim panted a bit looking away from Kelly as Kelly implored Kim some more. "Your not thinking straight, Kim. Look, why don't you and me go on a ride? We can just drive off, get cooler heads, and we can just forget about this. We'll go to Frank's Bar to get something stiff to drink, or if you don't want to get smashed, we could go to Tyler's Cafe, just chow down." 

"Kelly," Kim said quietly "I..." 

Kelly interrupted "Don't get me wrong, I have no moral quandary about doing this. This is what I do for a living. However, I chose The Life. I know every damn day my fate is ending with a bullet. You though, you and Sapphy..." Kelly looked at her "You're not like me. You actually want to do something else with your lives." keeping eye contact with Kim, Kelly asked "So I'm asking you a simple three word question, and I want 100% honesty from you. Are You Sure?" 

Kim looked at Kelly quietly as Kelly kept eye contact with her. Kim asked "Can I come in your trailer?" 

"Sure" Kelly said with relief walking her in "Forgive the baron nature of it. I need to get a lot of new shit." 

As they walked in Kim sat down on a pretty dirty couch, but she didn't seem to mind as Kelly went to her fridge "I don't have much but..." 

Kim said firmly "I'm sure" as Kelly paused at that "Kelly, I thought about this all week. I'm sure I want Skyla in front of me. I'm sure I want to see her. Thank you though, thank you for looking out for me. I need closure. I need to tell her how stupid she is. How much pain she has caused me." She clenched her fist "That this is over...no more blood...no more violence...this thing...is done." She looked at her hands "It has to end, no matter what." 

Kelly let out a heavy sigh as she said in a calm manner "Fine." She pulled out two sodas and handed one to Kim who stared back at her.. "It's going to take a little bit, I'm not exactly running with a full staff, and if you end things with her BEFORE I find her, I want you to call me." She sighed "So I'm assuming Alive" 

Kim nodded "And as unharmed as possible." 

"Okay," Kelly said taking a deep breath on that "I doubt she'll go out without a fight. So, what do you have to go on?" 

"Only what I saw on Aska's death ,and what I've been told. It's not much." Kim admitted

Kelly sighed "Well it's something, so what did you have?" 

Kim said "She's Muscled, the only reason why I know she's a she is because of Jason's brother, Andrew  Falconettie" 

"Wait like David Falconettie?" Kelly said confused 

Kim said "Please, let me continue" 

"Let me get a pen and paper," Kelly said getting what she needed writing down what she was told before "Continue" 

Kim explained "She was a very loyal second in command for Aska Tsuki. and fell for Andy seeking comfort in him, and in turn fell for her." Kelly kept writing "She has black hair, and was supposedly kidnapped but only just now showed up. She has a sister named Itsumi, but I don't know if Itsumi is still in Facina or not." 

Kelly sighed "That...really isn't a lot to work on. Any known locations she'd be?" 

Kim shook her head and said "The only place I'd think she'd go is Aska Tsuki's grave to pay respects but that's about it." 

Kelly sighed and said "That really isn't much to go on, and I'm not really working with a full crew here. You said the Falconettie's knew her?" 

"Andy especially" Kim confirmed. "Why?" 

"I'm going to need more information," Kelly said standing up "But I will start...however don't expect it in one day. It's just me right now, I just barely got done cleaning up this place." 

Kim said "Thank you, Kelly" 

Kelly nodded as Kim stood up and went to leave "Stay safe" 

Kim nodded and said "You too." 

Elizabeth asked "Where do you wanna go?" 

"Do you mind if we pay that Tyler guy a visit?" Andy said as they walked "I wanted to thank him for what he did" 

"Sure! His food's really good anyways" Elizabeth said with a little glint in her eyes. 

“Interesting room,” Skyla commented as they entered into it. Wasn’t anything like she was expecting.

Davis was sitting downstairs in the cafe, reading on his phone. There were a few customers, Daisy the barista was working behind the counter.

"Mhm, a bit childish for my taste but, its here for a reason." Sarah agreed. It was interesting, for sure. "Feel free to wipe the dust off you on the carpet, we vacuum often." She added, wiping her shoes off on said carpet.

As Andy and Elizabeth drove he saw the girl from earlier...the one that was at Jason's funeral driving by. He shrugged and thought nothing of it.

Kelly started to debate things in her head. Shady Oaks would be the best place to go hiding, it's almost a No Man's Land at this point. At the same time, the Black Dirt are the strongest crew in Facina right now, hiding with them would be child's play and a lot less risky. The Falconettie guy would only be good for more of a description, she highly doubted that this Skyla girl was hiding under his protection...not unless that guy was utter scum.

Kim arrived back at the Cafe and see if she could lend Tyler a hand.

“Oh,” Skyla remarked, glancing around. Hathor’s room. So that probably meant Sekhmet and Sarah had their own rooms as well. “Now I get why you have a bigger house.”

“Making any good tips?” Davis asked Daisy as she cleaned the counter. The tip jar had some bills in it, some coins, but nothing amazing. “Eh, slow day. People are still adjusting to the cafe being open again.”

"Yep, got a room for Hathor, Sekhmet, and Kent. I just sleep in Kent's room, since he deserves to have a room of his own for putting up with us." Sarah confirmed before stepping out into the hallway, which split off into 4 side doors to the left, and the right opened up to what looked to be a living room.

Kim said "Thank you, Daisy" looking at her "Where's Tyler?"

Andy parked as Elizabeth looked so hyper all of a sudden.

Kelly took a deep breath as she uturned heading towards Shady Oaks. Shady Oaks...the worst place in Facina. Don't go there unless you're armed. Only live there if you have no choice. Perfect place for someone to vanish.

"Cannn do," Skyla agreed, knowing it would be best not to trying and challenge the idea.

"Resting. You should leave him be, Miss Kim," Davis said, with a tone that said he wasn't going to be allowing her to bother Tyler if she tried.

"Dunno why you're thanking me when I didn't even say anything. Can I get you something?" Daisy asked.

"Alright, back to the tour." Sarah moved along to the first door on the left of the hall past the one they just left, opening the door up to reveal the bathroom. It wasn't particularly large, but it had everything a bathroom would need including a shower. "Here's the small bathroom, good for when we need to just shower and get going."

Kim turned back and said "That's weird..." She sighed and said "Then just make the Coffee how I like it please, strong with a bit of sugar and salt in it" 

Andy approached as Kim said "Andy, it's been a bit"

Andy sighed and said "It's only been a week"

Kelly sighed as she saw that the rumor was very true. This place really had gone to hell in a hand-basket, she sighed as she had to drive carefully as she saw just a blunt as day drug deal as well as the dealer saying "You want some baby?"

She heard a very crass "Hey baby, how much?" at her direction as she just kept driving. Just get to Julius's place so she can get started. She paused as she saw a car driving up next to her as they rolled down their window. "I said...how...much..."

Kelly's response was the Shady Oaks trademark as she pulled out her pistol, the guy reached for his own but Kelly fired hers several times in the air and floored it driving past the hail of gunfire that came at the guy who was now using his car for cover as Kelly hid down an ally. She turned and grabbed someone who was approaching her from behind and drew a knife to stab them but then heard "Kelly, it's me!" 

"Oh shit," Kelly said in relief "Julius..." 

"I'd say purple is a strong color, yeah," Skyla agreed. "I had purple hair for a while."

Daisy was getting increasingly pissed off with Kim continuing to just talk to her for ordering and then turning away. Davis felt bad for the girl, watching the whole ordeal unfold, but honestly, anyone who puts salt in their coffee deserves the glares Kim was getting.
