Aurora was cornered by her aunt eventually and she honestly couldn't stop herself. She had been sleeping when she heard knocking and threatened to shoot whoever was there.  When they didn't stop she grabbed her pistol ready to do just that when she saw it was her Aunt Sophia. Aurora told the older woman to go away but Sophia had pushed past her and walked into her place. "Sweetie I'm just here to check on you-." Aurora basically snarled, "Don't bother." She tried to shoo her away like a fly, but Sophia was stubborn.  She tried to demand Aurora to listen to reason, to do as she thinks best. But Aurora had, had it with her aunt and she couldn't stop her tongue from voicing it.  "Damn it Sophia would you just stop!" Sophia froze as Aurora glared at her with hate. "God I get it already! I'm nothing how you wish I was! And I'm sorry I'm such a disappointment, but I'm not changing!" Sophia shook her head rapidly, "I don't want you to change, I'm just trying to help you-!"  Aurora screamed in frustration, "Bullshit Sophia, just admit it! You wanted me to become your surrogate perfect daughter! Only thing is I had no desire to be your daughter and I"m not perfect!" Sophia stared at Aurora mouth opening and closing like a fish for a few moments. "We just wanted for you to be happy. We thought eventually...we'd become like parents to you." Sophia admitted after a moment. Aurora rolled her eyes, "Well sorry but I was sixteen, not six. I already had parents and I wasn't going to forget them so that I could live the American Dream."  Sophia shook her head now angry, "Aurora me and Pablo have been there for you for the last five years! It's becoming pathetic and worrisome aiding a fugitive! That's twenty five years in federal prison!" Aurora scoffed and Sophia then hit too low below the belt, "Besides...you can kill all these men who did this to your family. You might think at the end when you get the final one, it'll be over. It won't be. Because you're parents will still be dead."  The thunderous look in Aurora's eyes scared Sophia to her core. She tried to back track and comfort her but Aurora wasn't having it. "Well you know what Sophia that's okay. But do me a favor? Stop trying to make me your daughter because I am not anything to you. In the end you're just the infertile let down, my uncle turned his back on his familia for. Now get the f**k out of my apartment."  Sophia was in tears as Aurora yelled, "Now!"  Running out, Sophia was in tears as she leaned against the wall outside of the apartment door. "Hey you okay?" Sophia looked up at the handsome man and he smiled at her, "Yeah sorry. Complicated family thing." The man nodded, "Want to talk about it?"  Aurora couldn't stand to be in her apartment after so she found herself in a bar. Drinking her sorrows, Aurora looked at her phone when her uncle called her. Groaning she declined it and held her head in her hands.  She knew he wanted to tear into her for yet again making his wife cry. But she didn't want to get another cuss out for speaking her mind. Which is all Sophia did about her. Only difference was, Sophia was too weak to take what she dished out.  When Cypher called and texted her three times she winced.  PICK.  UP.  NOW.  Sighing Aurora did as told when he called again. "What the f**k is wrong with you." He cursed at her. "Let me guess Sophia came home crying about what a big meanie I was?" She chuckled bitterly. Of course she was the bad guy, she would always be the bad guy. Cypher growled, "This isn't funny Aurora this woman is in here sobbing because of how cruel you were to her!" Aurora didn't get a chance to speak before her uncle jumped on the phone, "This is the final straw Aurora! You refuse to get help and now you've yet again hurt your aunt! I'm done with you until you get your act together."  Then nothing. He hung up on her.  Aurora felt rage build inside of her. It was lethal, poisonous, as her grip on her glass became tighter. "Hey cutie want to come sit with me." A guy said coming to whisper in her ear. "Piss off." Aurora sneered not looking at him as she flagged the bartender. Jimmy, the bartender, tried to tell the tool he was barking up the right tree. But the guy didn't listen.  Instead he grabbed Aurora's arm, "Why so cold doll face? I can show you a good time and a big-." Breaking his wrist, Aurora slammed his head on to the bar and the drunkard was on the ground in seconds.  The regulars all laughed at the punk and saluted their girl with their beers. Everyone who had gone to Jimmy's for the past year knew not to f**k with the small female. It was the douche bags that stumbled in that got knocked on their asses.  The douchebags friends came to help him, and one looked like he was about to say something. He quickly didn't when Aurora's angry brown eyes settled on him with the evilest look. Aurora held her glass at the ready, she would love a bar fight right about now. Anything to not think about her uncle turning his back on her.  But the guy could obviously see that Aurora would most likely break something of his and didn't want that. So him and two other guys got the unconscious douche on his feet and walked off mumbling about her. Aurora got up and slammed some money on the bar, "Later Jimmy." She called and Jimmy winked at her.  Walking out of the bar, Aurora walked down the street thinking of dinner when someone grabbed her. Swinging her arm back into their face, her and the person began to square up as they pulled her into the alley.  Aurora was pushed back into a wall and kicked the person in the gut. Holding up their guns at the same time Aurora panted as she locked eyes with Mateo Ricardo.  "Mateo Ricardo." Mateo smirked, "Aurora Guerrero."  Aurora looked at him closely and asked, "How did you find me!" Mateo smiled, "I have access to somethings others don't. But I'm not here to fight." Putting his gun away he smiled at the young woman, "I came to help."  Aurora looked at him unsure for a second but he held up a file for her. Taking it slowly Aurora's blood boiled, seeing the next person she desperately wanted to kill. "Javier Carlos. How did you know?"  Mateo looked at her closely, "I know nothing about you. What happened though, I do know. And like I said I want to help." Aurora held up the file, "So you'll get me the last two?" Mateo nodded, "Of course."  Aurora looked at him closely, "And what do you want in return?"  Mateo grinned, "I want you to join our familia."
