Chapter 1. Explosion and Confusion
Pairing(s): Romano/Scotland in future
Rating: T or Teen
His lungs burned, but he had to keep going. He knew he had to keep going.
Just a bit farther.He kept thinking this, over and over again like a mantra. He was almost there, he knew it, but where was there? He couldn't remember. Nor could he remember what he needed to do, but he knew that he'd remember it once he'd arrive.
The Mafia. He started to remember a few conversations, though they were still hazy in his mind. The next thing he remembered was a loud noise, bright lights and scorching heat.
An explosion. That's what happened. It wasn't planned, it had surprised all of them, one minute a young Turk(1) was yelling to take cover and then... He couldn't remember what happened after, just that he needed to go there.
He tripped, the explosion having damaged his eardrums he barely manage to get back up. Once he did, the world swirled a bit in front of his eyes before focusing.
He arrived at the warehouse the Cosa Nostra (2) used as one of their main bases. He went directly to the highest graded there, he remembered now. He asked to be brought to the Capofamiglia (3). The Capodecina (4) made him get his wounds treated, he had to use force for that to happen.
Lovino Vargas, who is the Sotto Capo (5) of this branching of the Cosa Nostra, was close to being hysterical. They had found out. They had found out.Had the Capodecina have any clue what that meant? His wounds didn't matter at all compared to the fact that they knew.
After being forced to calm down, he was returned briefly to his home to change into something more presentable for his meeting with the Capofamiglia. They finally left to go see him.
He explained everything to him in rapid Sicilian, not Italian, Sicilian. His boss was shocked to learn what had happened, more specifically what it meant for his Sotto Capo. They arranged plans for what to do.
They both knew, it was only the beginning.
AN: Well I don't know if this is going to be continued or anything, but it probably will be continued, just need to figure out if I do a pairing in it or not because it'll affect the whole story if yes or no and if yes, with which character.
Well enough of my rambling, tell me what you think of this and I'm sorry with the very brief, possibly, first chapter of this. Here are the definitions:
1) Young Turk: slang for the new generations of the Mafia who are less likely to follow the old traditions.
2) Cosa Nostra: Literally "Our Thing" (if not please tell me). It's what the Mafia calls itself.
3) Capofamiglia: It's what they call the Boss of the Mafia, can also be "Rapresentante"
4) Capodecina: Sometimes "Caporegina". They're the underbosses that take care of a group of around ten Mafiosi.
5) Sotto Capo: The actual underboss, directly under the Capofamiglia, it's most likely that if something happens to the Capofamiglia the Sotto Capo will become the next one.
P.S. This is also my first fanfic so thanks for any reviews, alerts and what not.
P.P.S. The story is getting continued (posting second chapter at the same time as editing this so Ha!
