"Your parents are dead."

Lucy had dropped the phone that morning upon hearing those words. She had been sitting on Luke's couch, wondering where he had gone off to. It took a moment for them to register before she picked the phone back up with a shaking hand.

"If you don't start working for me, then Uncle Frank's next. I'll kill them all without no issue, princess and then finally I'll kill you."

"Who... Who is this?"Lucy asked in disbelief. No way were they dead. However, as Lucy went through her phone, she found she was getting numerous text messages from family and friends back at home about her parents being murdered. Her eyes watered and she covered her mouth in shock. She had no idea what she had gotten into until this moment. This wasn't a game.

"We'll meet soon."The voice simply replied and hung up.

Lucy gathered her things and motioned over the dog as she left the apartment. She called a cab, realizing she needed to probably stay as low as possible from now on to avoid confrontation with this man. Once the cab arrived, she smashed her phone on the ground, breaking it. Then she got inside the car.
