Los Angeles

'It's impossible to take everything from somebody. Each person has something fear and threats cannot intercept..'

she knew she was practically picking a fight, but she was slightly too drunk to recitfy it, or even care. 'I don't give a shit who you are, cross me and your ass is mine.'

I chuckle, unafraid of her claimed wrath. "I wouldn't make such brash statements in a place where I know more people than you."

She shook her head. 'You've nothing over me. I know enough people, that's all that matters.'

"really, are they within 2 feet of you?"

I snap my fingers and a couple men draw their wands and point them at the pair.

'Okay, i lied.' she admitted, hands releasing their tight grip on Joachim and sneaking behind her back. 'I don't know enough PEOPLE..' Amaya shifted in a matter of miliseconds, sending a multitude of knives towards them.

All of the men borderline effortlessly send the knives safely to the floors.

"You really think we have no experience in this?"

I take out a letter and throw it to Joachim's feet. "That's what he has to do..."

She picked it up, before ripping it cleanly in two. 'Bite me.'
I worked for Abonacci, you're mice compared to him. Amaya had a substance in her hand, preparing escape.

I shrug, "it's nothing to me if he doesn't do the job. What's another dead body?"

The list on the floor clearly read the names of many of the male students at Hogwarts, their ages and other information about them.

She snorted. 'Haven't you guessed by now? your threats mean shit to me.' Amaya didn't even bat an eyelid at the list of names.

"Really? Even if it's Joachim here?"

'As if i'd be the type to let you hurt him.' she took a step back into the throng of people, gathering their attention.

"It won't matter what you do, I know how to find him and I know him better than you..."

'And i love him, if he's anything like me then i know him enough.' her hand was curled around Joachim's wrist.

"You can say that... but I know his first and only love is money. And surely you've seen that as well."

'It used to be. I have faith that he can change, that he IS changing.' there wasn't even a scrap of doubt in her expression.

"I'll leave you for now, but he has a job to do for me, and if he doesn't do it.. I can't guarantee his safety. Especially after what his partner did."

'He doesn't have a partner anymore. Kid got married and gave up.' she blurted without thinking.

"Did he now? Thank you for that information..."

She blinked, suddenly dawning on her what she'd said. 'I didn't say that..' she mumbled, more to herself.

"His betrayal of me shall be dealt with... and Joachim must do what I order of him if he wants his friend and his wife to live..."

'Why would Joachim do what you say if you just said toph's going to die anyway?' she rolled her eyes.

"He MIGHT not if he does what I say."

'Nah, i know you types. Holding false hope above people's heads in the chance they'll take the bait.' she stuck her bottom lip out. After all, her own father had done it to her.

"You look a little familiar..."

'I'm like all them other girls that come swarming in and out of these doors.' she relied on her relative plainness to try and pull off her lie.
