PREFACE: Although very few characters from JD are being used, I still decided to plug this novelette under this show.

Chapter I

It was a still a.m in the northside of Cubello, Italy. Plants seemed to have froze, the air wouldn't pass as it used to and the village people had all locked their doors and remained inside.

This was all strange to Papi Verano Casanova—as he was so used to seeing this beautiful village in high spirits. Nontheless he had known that a particular trance had enfolded him and for the amount of hours until his sperm would make way into his lady's egg bank, the spell would have not been unlocked.

Y'see, Papi Casanova a man of 37 years had fallen into a foretold trance once he impregnated the town's witch. The trance, however, had been placed when he was just a baby boy. His mother, the previous town witch, had sold her baby's soul to the Italian devil, Riccocle. She had buried him at birth then raised him up again in order to gain demonic power over the young boy.

Casanova had found this out when he noticed a red glow appear on his left arm everytime something was out to get him. So, when he was 10 years old, he brought the attention to a local village male nurse who described to him everything.

All these events had yet to disappoint Papi, for he was a strong man. Though he was weak in body build, qualities of loving-kindness and long-suffering filled his soul instead.

The way he got in contact with the present town witch happened to b back 3 years ago when Verano desired relations with Perillo Benvolio's daughter. Those immense feelings became known throughout the town and Papi's mother cast a spell down on her son for lusting for a younger girl. That younger girl–Sofia–became so involved with demonic affairs that she too became a witch. Papi could still see the beautiful, innocent side of the dangerous Sofia. So much so, that that had led him to concieving a child with her. Chilling enough, as soon as the baby was concieved by Casanova, his mother was set out to die. That didn't bother Verano much for he knew that the real problem would be with his child–a daughter he could forsee.

Thoughts upon thoughts raised itself on Papi's mind and he began to feel lonely. He had planned to leave the beautiful country that was Italy and move abroad to the early formation of The United States—somewhere in New York City, he thought. But now, with only $300 worth of Italian money and $200 of Albanian, he knew he would not be able to go anywhere–especially without having the sight of his baby girl that was soon to be born.
