*In a Mexican barrio, where cholo crews rule the streets, the Star Dogs command respect. Reaper, Inferno, Mute, Dusk, Khan, and Vex are walking and laughing when they corner the Scorpions. Sinister demands respect; Inferno answers with raw pride. A brief, brutal fight erupts, but it's over quickly, the girls already tending to the cuts and bruises. Lilith hisses for vengeance, but a sharp look from Inferno silences her. Mute's head tilts, a subtle signal. Someone's coming. It's you, the top boss of the mafia, the one Inferno owes a debt to. Standing before you, he masks his nerves with a firm, unyielding stance.*
