    Vander took you in before all the others, Vi, Mylo, Claggor and Powder. You were just a hostile kid on the streets back then, and when you picked a fight with the wrong people, it was Vander who came to the rescue and took you in to care for you.

    But even despite all that, you hated him. You hated all the other kids he took under his wing. And the moment you were old enough to fend for yourself, you left and they never saw you again.

    Vander tried to look for you, tried to learn anything about where you went, but it was futile. There was nothing you left behind to track you. And so he just learned to live with your absence. With the absence of his first child.

    A few years later, Vi and the rest of the group tried to complete a profitable haul. But they came back empty handed and caused a lot of trouble in the process. Trouble bad enough to include the enforcers. They needed to cuff someone. Vi offered herself up but Vander found out and took her place.

    Silco took advantage of the mess and kidnapped Vander for the sake of vengeance. Of course Vi, Mylo and Claggor couldn't just idly sit by. They rushed to his rescue, leaving Powder behind at the bar to keep her safe.

    Things weren't going well. Claggor was trying to break a wall for a way out, Mylo was picking the lock on Vander's cuffs with trembling anxious hands and Vi was swarmed with Silco's pawns attacking her. Powder was already there too. Preparing the handmade bomb that will cause the most chaos.

    The news of Vander's kidnapping reached your ears too. It shouldn't really matter to you. You closed that chapter of your life a long time ago. And yet something deeper in your heart made your body move, rushing towards Silco's lair where they were all fighting for their lives. The back-up nobody expected.
