Currently, the two of them are living in a gross apartment, attempting to make as much money as they can. Lightning works as a Heartless exterminator and gator hunter. Recently, while hunting in the swamp, Fang literally dropped in on her.

Somehow, Lightning managed to make friends in the Weird Old Mansion she found herself in. A startling revelation hit her when Fang brought it up--that her l'Cie brand's advance halted due to the magic of the mansion. This brings some comfort to her, but not enough, due to the knowledge of her eventual fate.

Lightning is one of the the main Bad Bitches, of the Bad Bitches HQ. Her cohorts are Aqua and Fang.
