Chibi-Kari: I'm just trying out a genre. This is just a prologue if I chose to continue with it. I've been watching Gunslinger Girl since the beginning and I own all the manga so if something is wrong will you please inform me so I can check on it.
A Rose By Another Name
Prologue
He let the rain splatter down on his head. It was one of those moments where life couldn't get any worse. Standing in the park midday. It was his way of mourning her loss. It had been one year since he had seen her. His best friend.
"Master Phillipo. Please, you must return. Your mother and father wouldn't like you staying out here. It's not safe."
The young boy laughed to himself. His brown hair matted to his face, covering his light blue eyes, "Nothing's safe. Don't patronize me. I know who my father is and what he works for."
"Mr. Pirazzi, your father, won't be happy if you don't come back. If you catch cold it will be my head." The man begged. He knew he couldn't sway the young man, but dealing with the wrath of his boss would be even worse.
"Yeah I wouldn't want to be caught by the Brigate Rosse." The boy laughed to himself. It was a cruel joke. They were the people that killed his best friend and her whole family all because his father was funneling money into the Padania. Well everyone said she was dead, but he didn't believe it. Her body was never found. If she had been alive, God they would have done anything for her. She was practically family. He ran a hand through his matted hair, "Let's go." He sighed as he walked towards the tall man and they made there way into a limo.
"Giuseppe, where is Henrietta?" A tall blonde man asked as he walked down the corridor.
"Jean. She's out shopping with Elenora. Didn't you check the records?" A tall pale man with dark hair answered.
"I know, I just didn't think that you would let her go off with an employee of section one." Jean answered raising an eyebrow in disapproval.
"Jean, it's nothing like that." Giuseppe answered waving his hand off handly. "Elenora said something about me having horrible fashion sense. She's bringing her shopping."
"I don't feel comfortable letting one of the machines walk around like that. What if we needed her?"
"Jean, don't be ridiculous. She's fine and it's only for an hour. Henrietta could do with some new clothes. And it's true everything I pick out is all the same."
