Prologue

Read the prologue here! ''' Hey! This article contains spoilers for the prologue of A Masochist's Tango. '''

The prologue begins with Lucinda explaining that she lives in a world where many generations ago the supernatural began having relations with humans, creating children that became a new sort of race with Abilities. Those who appear human were called such, but others, such as Lucinda herself, looked un-human and are called mutants.

Due to this uprising of power, many wars and murders started and became more and more common. In order to keep the general public safe, they began creating giant walls around their cities and called them Havens. As long as you didn't cause trouble, life would continue as normal, but anyone who started violence or used their ability would be thrown out into the open. Out in the open, criminals started gangs and continued their violent streaks.

Lucinda explains that for many years she had been a graphic designer, but her true dream was to be a model like her favorite celebrity, 'Hot Pink.' Until one day, when Hot Pink broke a law by murdering her supervisor. Hot Pink was not allowed a defense, and was thrown out. Lucinda, curious to know more about her idol, purposefully got herself thrown out of the Haven.

After being in the open for a while, Lucinda found Hot Pink, and is approached by her. Lucinda is shocked when Hot Pink, or now known as Yawa, starts talking to her normally instead of attacking her. Yawa tells Lucinda that she's a gang leader and asks in Lucinda was in a gang, to which Lucinda replies with no. After Lucinda confirms that Yawa is 'Hot Pink' she decides to join Yawa's Gang.
