La Cosa Nostra

Prologue

Hi, my name is Justyno and there was a time in my life in which I wouldn't consider myself "Mafioso" much less a murderous one. Sure I had my temper but killing wasn't part of my life, even tho my family has always been in these so called "mafias". It started with my great-grandfather in Siderno Marina, Calabria, Italy. He created a family called La Potenza meaning The Power and rose to become one of the most powerful families in Calabria. When he passed away, my grandfather took over and expanded its powers throughout southern Italy. In the early 80`s everyone expected my father to take over but he wouldn`t have anything to do with this business. For years my grandfather tried to convince him to take over and each time my father would decline.

In 1985 my father Roberto and my mother Marie gave birth to a boy which they would name Justyno. After staying in Italy for another year, my father decided we`ll move to America. He wanted me to grow up without being in this kind of life. In 1987 my mother gave birth to my only sibling and brother Matteo. Growing up we had it easy since my grandfather, despite hating the fact we left Italy, still helped us financially. He loved me and my brother to death and would tell us stories about him and his dad back in Italy. We were intrigued as to why we would leave if our family had it made. I always asked my father why did we move and he always replied that it wasn't the life for us. So eventually me and my brother would just not care anymore and live our lives here in America.

In the early 2000's my brother and I were known as two of the biggest hot heads in our school. Our dad would always pick us up from school after we be suspended for fighting. He claims we inherited out great-grandfathers temper, but I wouldn't know. Other than that we were good kids, we went to church on Sundays, helped out around the house, and once a year we got to go to Italy to see our grandfather. Life was great and always full of surprises for us. But perhaps the biggest thing to happen to us happened in 2004, the year we meet Martin, the leader of CNB Mafia.
