Reaper
Ink had found her before me and it pissed me of that the motherfucker did not fucking tell me but it fucking hurt even more that she trusted him more then me. I deserved it when i went to get answers at the hospital from the only assholes who i knew could even if it meant Rosie and waking up Jose and the rest. To my discovery however they were all gone.
Transferred or simply not admitted.
My only lead to Belle was gone and it was all my fault for pushing her away and telling her things i wish i could take back and i knew where she went, i know she went to the Don but even if i followed after her what could i fucking do? All i could do is wait.
Annabelle
Florence, Italy
Beautiful as it was the memories i had here were not the same joyful ones anyone would have unless you count the ones where i was with my family. Hard as it was to accept i was going to kill the only other person i had saw as a father figure for all these years but you think there would be pain and heart ache in my chest but the sad truth was that i felt nothing but anger. Ronaldo, Emily and Ink we were all going over the plans of the attack, all going over the entrances and exits as if it meant anything. The Don did not know however that by shooting not just Ronaldo but us he put a death sentence on him from every single snake member that Ronald and his father had trained in existence and the thought of that alone would put fear in him.
I lay in bed and exhaled softly, left hand on my belly and my right tucked under my head. I listened to the music i played from a list of songs that were just a variety of different types, my mind was staying focused on everything that was about to happen and the fact that i was his daughter played over and over in my head and so did the memories of my upbringing with him. All things that were playing on my conscious but then again i was only human, i felt and i cared about this but the the screams of that baby, the bullets, the tears, the screams and the body of my sister filled my mind and like that it was like a switch in my head went off and just like that the feelings and doubt was all gone.
Sobbing, crying and even screams filled the church. We stood in Santa Maria Novella, the church was beautiful beyond your imagination High arched ceilings and glass stained windows, the crucifix in the center wall, the ceder wood benches decorated with white flower arrangements and vibrant pink roses, the light white silk ribbon hanging at the ends, the larger flower arrangements around the casket over even on it and there i stood in the crowd of people wearing black, my face covered in thick black shades as i watched the Don keep a straight face as he held his wife and younger daughter, there cries along with other woman filling the vast building.
My hands remained clasped in front of me, my posture upright as i watched Giovanni lead his mother towards the casket along with his sister, slipping through the crowd easily, i managed to get close to the Don as i stood next to him and pulled a black rose from my jacket as i spoke my voice low for only he could hear, my face blank as i watched the scene in front of me.
"Non e triste? Seppellire i propri figli?" (Sad isn't it? To bury ones child.)
The Don stiffened but kept his face blank as he looked ahead.
"Cosa stai facendo qui?" (What are you doing here?)
"My sister may never wake up because of you, a child became a orphan because of you. All of the blood and your sons death could of been avoided had you left me alone Costa. What do you think i am doing? Even us assassins pay our respects to the dead."
His hands balled into fists at his sides.
"You killed my son?"
The question i had been waiting to hear and the truth of it was i took pleasure in my answer. It was odd honestly when i said the word it was as if i held no emotion.
"Si." my voice said coldly.
He turned to me removing his shades, in this moment i could see that he looked his age. His face filed with lines of worry, his eyes swollen from tears, the dark circles under his eyes from lack of sleep. The Don looked more like a old man. Removing my own shades i looked back at him with the same eyes he had and made sure he saw the anger, the pain, the determination behind them showed while all the while i kept my face blank of any emotion. Only the killer, the assassin, the monster, the deadly viper he and Ronaldo trained me to be showed itself as i looked right at him.
"I am coming for you Father. I am coming for you and every single person that gets in my way from getting you. NO matter how long it takes or where you hide, I will find you and i will kill you just like you killed me."
Walking past him, i lightly shoved past Giovanni letting him know i was there and walked towards the casket as i placed the black rose on top of it along with all the other red and white ones. My eyes never leaving Don Costa, walking down the steps i slipped through the crowd of people heading for the exit sliding fluently and damn near gracefully, my hair no longer down but up with a red rose sticking out from my ear, shades gone and my arm soon linked through Ronaldos as we blended through the crowd without much effort on our parts. We accomplished what we wanted and that was placing fear and paranoia into the Don. Slipping into the limo with Ronaldo, I removed the rose from my hair as i tossed it onto the seat and looked out the window.
"Tonight this all ends Bells."
"I know it does...either he dies, i die or we all die. One way or another my father does not live past tonight even if it means my death."
"You will not die Bells, i know you will not. He on the other hand, are you sure that you can kill him or is-"
"I fell nothing for that man. This is personal Ronaldo and if you really think i cannot kill him then tell me now."
"I know you can Belle but your killing someone who was a big part of your life i do not want you to live with regrets."
"The only regret i have ROnaldo is that i did not do it sooner."
With that silence fell through the limo till we returned to base, once we arrived it was upon entering the building did i see that the message had been answered, every member that Ronaldo and his father had trained, young and old had all finally arrived and they were all ready. Ink he stood off to the side and had his arms crossed over his chest and all though he was not one of us he needed this just as much as i did. We all prepared for the night, weapons ranging from guns to knives to ropes and swords. Everyone had there preference when it came to killing it did not matter who you were some were good with hands, others with knives, some with guns. I preferred hand to hand or knives. However today i was going to use guns and knives because the security and men of Don Costa had increased.
"Though here is were the first team will enter, through the east side gate is where you Ink will drive the truck and cause the explosion. The goal is taking out every single guard and man you see with a gun. No one is to go into the house until they are all dead." Ronaldo stated.
"This son of a bitch will see us coming for him together..."
Every single person nodded there head and broke off to get into the trucks Emily and Ink and i all sat in a small four door car, the feeling of numbness passing through my body and although i wanted nothing more then to be with my sister the fact that she was not safe made me press forward. i will not lie doing this was something I never thought possible but then again life had a funny way of sneaking things on a person. Ink looked at me yet again before he exhaled softly his hand pulling out a picture as he then passed it to me, his eyes starring ahead as I looked down to the photo of his small baby boy. The baby was a newborn in this photo.
"Had it not been for you I would of lost my only family."
"He lost his mother because of me..." I said softly.
"No, he lost her because of a man who could not take no for an answer and if anything happens to me....I made sure your the one that gets my boy."
Looking to him my brows pushed together when the car suddenly halted to a stop, my hands on my guns as I watched Don Costa villas pull up ahead my hands shoving the picture into my coat pocket as i slid out the car easily, everything was going to happen tonight and my head was swimming at first that something would happen and things would end badly but i had faith and i trusted inn my group. Emily passed me the small Bluetooth and looked to me as she clipped on her piece when Ronaldo came in with the black hummer, the lights off as he looked to Ink.
"You have the gun inside, the car is completely bullet proof i promise you that no bullet will get through unless you step out."
Ink nodded his eyes on Emily and I as he slid on the big black vest we had made for him a smile on his lips as he looked to us.
"Don't worry doll face, if i make out of this alive you and Emily and I are all going to go out for drinks. Hell i always wanted to see Italy might as well as have you pretty woman show me."
Emily laughed and looked to him as she slid the blades into the sheaths on her arms and then spoke softly. "Are you ready?" Looks to her.
"Yes i really am...Don Costa is mine Emily...no one else gets to kill him but me."
"I know Bells, its going to be okay i promise."
Ink got into the hummer and waved away as he drove towards the front gate that we were going to use as a distraction, cocking the gun i looked to Ronaldo and Emily.
"Vamonos."
We marched through the trees as the gunfire started on the opposite side, it rained bullets and shouts so loud that as we walked past the trees the snipers were able to take out the ones on the roof and balconies, the bodies falling forward. We walked in a line, most of the snakes holding machine guns, as we lined behind the men that fired at the hummer, the bullets barley making the windows crack, Ink no where in sight he was probably huddled on the ground of the truck.
Raising the guns we fired. The vibration of the machine gun i was given vibrated in my hands as i looked to bodies that fell on the floor, the blood splattering not just on the ground but the sidewalk and bushes. Men of different color and size all fell forward as their body riddled in bullet holes. Tossing the gun onto the floor i looked to Ronaldo and nodded.
"Everyone is to surround the house anyone that comes out is shot on sight, only Ink, Viper, Reptilia and I will be the ones to enter."
"Guns up."
We walked inside stealthy and split up, the stairs were the same as always, white marble with wrought iron railings that lead up the center but broke into two once it reached the middle, breaking into two one to the left hall and the other to the right hall. Walking cautiously up the stairs i only got to make to the fourth step when a bullet whizzed past me and hit the railing beside me, without even thinking i jumped over the railing and rolled on the ground my back hitting the stairs as a rain of bullets descended on me. The marble stairs chipped and cracked sending flying pieces around the area and covering my hair, a rogue gunman shooting at me as I growled in anger and moved under the stairs as i fired away at his feet, making him fall back on the ground as i aimed for his knee and shot him in his knee cap, his piercing scream filled my ears as he fell before he was silenced with a bullet in his head. Going back up the steps distant gunshots and screams filled the villa, sounds of glass breaking and thumps filled this night.
Looking into the rooms as i passed the bedrooms i would of expected more security or guards here but it was deathly quiet, the only sound that was heard was heavy breathing and groans. The sound were muffled and all though i could not see a ugly cold shiver went down my spine, holding the gun tightly in my hand i pushed the white door back and froze looking to Reaper.
Reapers face was swollen and bloody, his left eye was closed from how black and swollen it was, his nose was bleeding and at a odd angle. His head raised slightly so i could see him more clearly, he had cuts across his chest and lower stomach his breathing heavy as he turned his head to look at the Don who sat in a chair, his knuckles raw and bloody from the force of his punches, beside him stood two of my half brothers Serigo and Sal at there feet was also a hog tied Giovanni his face swollen and bloody, the gag digging into the sides of his face it was even covered in blood from his nose and right eye having seeped down into it.
Pointing the gun at him, i watched as Serigo pointed his at Reaper and Sal pointed his own machine gun at Giovanni a smirk on there lips, my eyes narrowed as i looked to Don Costa, all the while he smirked and continued smoking the cigar in his lips as he exhaled with a hiss of breath.
"Put it down Annabelle, either your brother or your lover."
Swallowing the lump of anger in my throat i tossed the gun despite hearing Reapers raspy whisper of no, seeing him like this killed me, eyes on the Don i raised my hands up to my sides and glared at him, i watched as Sergio came at me and butted the back of the machine gun hard inn my stomach, the pain made me lean forward slightly but thanks to the vest it didn't hurt as much as i though it would. He raised the gun again this time and hit the side of my face, my right cheek splitting from the force as i fell on my knees and breathed heavy.
"Stop! You motherfucker!" Reaper yelled his body trying to shuffle forward but he fell on his side in attempt to reach me.
Holding my stomach lightly i looked up at Don Costa my breathing heavy, before i spit onto the floor in front of me.
"See why you cant stand your boys...pegan como ninas"
Don Costa continued to smoke his cigar as he looked to me and exhaled as he motioned for Reaper his eyes on mine. "Your lover has been here since early morning, when my men noticed you were gone from the hospital i had them bring your lover here...once he was alone around late last night he arrived not that hard when the man himself was looking for you ..."
Reaper pushed towards me only to be kicked back by Sergio his left leg kicking him in the face making his head reel backwards.
"You took something from me and now i have to take something from you but i do not want to kill you bambina so i will make it easy...kill him or your brother here the traitor and everything is forgiven."
My eyes widened as i looked between Giovanni and Reaper my eyes narrowing as i looked to the Don my eyes filled with anger as i starred at the man before me, my hands shaking from complete rage, I wanted to kill him with my bare hands even if it meant my death i wanted him dead.
