The Battle ended with Team TRK and KYO tying, both were equally good and matched. Tamsen was a bit disappointed but her older brother Tomasso cheered her up, "This is what we call OUR victory! You guys were great!" Yaroslav offered a high five to Kylo, the lad responded by hitting Yaroslav's hand. They enjoyed each other's company for awhile, being humble and warm at the same time. On the other hand, the injured people were brought to the Infirmary, Dante and Wilhevit were staying and laughing with Flavio while Rosa and Marco are looking after Salvatore. Worried about their friend's condition, they sat on the sofa right before the bed. Salvatore received 26 stabs from Emilio, luckily the technology here in the Wasteland is far more better than those at the Vitalis City.
"Welp.. since we lost... We can't be recruited anymore then?" Dante heaved a deep sigh before leaning his chin on the bed, "Then we failed our mission.." Flavio chuckled before looking down.
"Cheer up guys, the event will took place in a span of week. Due to the team's performance, were still in but we only lost on the Battle Royale." Tomasso appeared with a smile on his face.
"Wait, there's more?! Aside from the Battle Royale!?" Wilhevit quickly stood up.
"Yeah, not just Battle Royale, that's more of an appetizer." Tomasso winked.
"Then, what's next?!" Wilhevit's eyes sparkled.
"Playing a MMOJRPG in a large screen, that's the main course though... People in here prefer games more than battles." Tomasso whistled.
"Seriously...?" Wilhevit frowned in disappointment. At this point, Dante's eyes sparkled, "If only I'm a participant then I'll join!" he exclaimed.
"Actually, you can. Salvatore can no longer fight.." Tomasso heaved a deep sigh.
"Then, Dante can replace strawberry then." Flavio stated nonchalantly.
"How about Emilio..?" Rosamaria arrived in the room with Marco.
"Emilio.. was disqualified." Tomasso reassured her, "Also, his team is disqualified." he added.
"I see.." Rosamaria sat on the chair.
"Uhm.. Tomasso.." Dante raised his right arm.
"What is it?" Tomasso asked.
"When can we take a bath..?" Dante responded while scratching his head.
"Yeah! When can we take a bath? My buttcheeks are itching..." Flavio deadpanned.
"Theres a public bath nearby the Infirmary though, so want to take a bath?" Tomasso chuckled for a moment.
"Does that mean I'll see Delta's boobies again..?" Flavio's face scrunched.
"I won't let you." Marco glanced at him.
Flavio and Tomasso's lips arched as their eyebrows elevated, they looked at each other while chuckling.
"What..?" Marco asked them in a serious manner.
"Nothing.." the two said in sync.
Meanwhile at the Sardinia, Italy, the 1st branch cafe of the La Nostra Pace has been operating smoothly. The war between Fantasma Rosso and the Mafia stopped for awhile, unbeknownst to Salvatore after he killed Francisco, Donatello took over the Unit 3 of Fantasma Rosso. Donatello focused more on the war taking place at the Vitalis City, his main goal is to aid King Titalus for now. Ignoring the Branch 1 of the La Nostra Pace, he eventually let them operate their hidden business for now, that includes making drugs and clones that has the ability to change the history.
"We are maybe the antagonist on every people's eyes.. but our main goal is to stop the La Nostra Pace on using more artificial human just to make them suffer from the experiments they have been doing throughout these years." a silver haired man stood up before Donatello.
"Due to the Ferrante's thirst for vengeance, our Mafia's name has been stained cause of their strategies and wrongdoings. Now, as the Caporegime of the Unit 3, please do clean our Mafia's name, Donatello Guerra.." he added before sipping his wine.
"I will, Boss." Donatello bowed down.
"Dismiss.." the man turned around, Donatello raised his head before going out of the office.
He sighed after closing the door, he then walked away tiredly. Donatello can be seen sitting on the chair inside of his office, he stared at the picture frame on his table for a moment, there lies a picture of him and his little brother, Dante. Although he's bearing hatred towards his brother, he really misses him ever since he left.
"You've been better than me ever since you started speaking.." he heaved a sigh.
"You only ruined your life after meeting that disgusting guy.." Donatello leans on the table.
"I just can't accept how better you are, then you chose a quicker way to achieve happiness which is very dumb and later succumb into despair.. I looked up to you, yet you sunk faster than me.." he added in dismay. "I just wanted to see you..Dan.."
Back to the Cafe's Branch 1, the remaining members had longed to reunite again with the others but because of the current problem regarding to the wanted posters, they can't. Giusto took Dorotea out for her to calm herself while the others continued on working at the cafe. Among the Capos, only Pio knew what happened, he was involved for hacking the robots. Ilario and Ruggero was tasked to look for them and they ended up infront of the House Maggiore, Romulis had permitted the two to enter the House, both Carlotta and Nico had been staying there for awhile, aiding Romulis on the current war.
[Year 2117: Future, 20 years from now]
A black haired man stood infront of the grave at the Wasteland. His eyes were as red as blood while his attire was tattered cause of the battle. He mourns his dearest daughter's death, the whole place was a mess, the old Base Camp of the Revolutionary Army has been taken down, the world were ruled by the creatures known as 'Adamants', it's what Dr. Quattrocchi named it. Before walking away, he looked at the picture in his locker, there lies a tattered picture of the gang who went in the Wasteland 20 years ago. He heaved a sigh as he kept the locket in his pocket, he then smoked cigarette before walking away. His last resort is jumping through times in hope of preventing the era of Adamants to happen. He jumped inside of the hatch that leads to the underground and lit the torches using his cigarette. He stood infront of a table while looking at the device that was created by both Adam and Nana in hopes for someone to use it for the greater good. The man grabbed the device before setting the time and place, "June 10, 2097.. Sardinia, Italy.." he whispered desperately. As he pushed the button, he quickly disappeared.
[Year 2097: Present, June 10, 2097]
"Im sorry about that Dor— I mean.. Martha." Giusto looked down while walking with Dorotea, "Its not your fault.. after all, you only wanted to help, right?" Dorotea glanced at Giusto, "Y-yeah..." he sighed.
Suddenly, the man from before appeared in the dark alley, he quickly pulled Giusto and Dorotea inside before the bomb exploded, "W-wait, what—" Giusto was shocked, the man quickly climbed on walls of the building as he started chasing the bomber.
"That man just.. anticipated that this would happen.." Dorotea slowly stood up, "As if he knew we were about to die out there." she added, Giusto only nodded in response.
The man caught the culprit and quickly killed him, it was revealed that it is one of Luciano's clones who attempted to kill Giusto and Dorotea. "I'm glad I caught up..." the man whispered before vanishing away.
