[*]Shortly after graduation, her parents bought a bodega at 48th Street and 10th Ave in Hell's Kitchen (aka Clinton) which included an apartment on the floor above; the three of them (less the brother) moved there.
[*]She got involved with a gangbanger named Julio just weeks before the blackout.

[list]
[*]4 April 2022 (Day 2), just 2 hours into the blackout: Maria and her parents are [i]saved[/i] from looters by Julio's gang, the Clinton 49ers; the gang subsequently takes the bodega for themselves, looting it at first and occupying it and the apartment building after that.
[*]The gang's leader, Pablo, enforces his [i]right[/i] to bed all members' new lovers by spending the night having sex with a reluctant but compliant Maria.
