DISCLAIMER- I do not own La Storia Della Arcana Famiglia

Yosh it's nice to see all of you again, sorry for the late updates of the story. I really hope that all of you haven't give up in waiting for this piece of work. Earlier this year, we had posted 4 oneshots which meant to serialized. I hope that all of you can spend some of their time voting on polls. Also although it's already the 8th of January, I wanted to wish all of you happy new year and may all your wishes come true...

"Isn't that right Il Matto"

The masked man called out his tarocco name. Just how the hell that the man knows about his contract. It had been a secret even among the famiglia members about the card that they had contracted with. The nasty glare makes him feels like someone's going to kill him. Seeing the danger approaching Liberta, Pace stepped in front of him trying to keep them off the bay. The other famiglia members with tarocco begin to attack back. Even the lady of the day makes her move as she tried to fend off the intruders. Other members of the famiglia had been sent to the back, to protect the civilians. Clash of swords, knife and daggers followed by the booming sound shot out of the guns filled the mansion's ballroom. Felicita and Nova are up in front trying to push the intruders back. Liberta and Pace also readied themselves as the onslaught begins. Blood splattered as one by one of the famiglia members injured. Although the wounds aren't fatal, seeing one by one of them being slashed makes Liberta feels guilty.

After all that man only wanted him. If they let him go, nothing of sorts will happened right at this moment. He clutched his cutlass tightly as he drove through the crowd, slashing and knocking off the enemy one by one.

'Liberta!"

Pace shouted out the blonde's name as one of the enemy tried to stabbed Liberta from the back. He ran through the crowd pulling the blonde towards him and punch the enemy lights off.

"My oh my, what a spectacular display of power you had~~"

The masked man said as his men thrown one by one to the floor bleeding themselves to death. As the last one fall down the masked man clapped his hand.

"Ouu, what a splendid show, but how about we continues it for a while longer"

He snapped his fingers and the once fallen enemies came back to life, the second onslaught wave hit's the famiglia members once again. More and more blood are stained to the famiglia members clothes. They are painted in the enemies and their own blood. Each time they tried to counter the enemies keep getting stronger.

And all that is left on the battlefield are corpses, blood and the exhausted famiglia members. The battle had drained their energy to the core.

"As expected of the famed Arcana Famiglia"

He said it cheekily as he spared a look at them.

"But that's all that you got, now hand me Il Matto"

Hearing that statement, the members stand up ready to fight once again.

"We won't hand Liberta to you"

Nova said as he spat the blood that's coming from the cut inside his mouth. Pace put his hand around Liberta protectively. At that time, Liberta feels a warm sensation going through his body. The feelings of safety and love fills him to the brim. Felicita and Nova attack the masked figure but both of them fall down as that man kicked them in the stomach. Dante whom trying to fire been knocked down the mere second he took an aim. Mondo and Sumire comes next but both of them aren't capable of attacking that man.

"Is that's all you have"

That man said as he walked through the injured and unconcious body, towards Liberta. The only one that is left is Pace whom standing right before Liberta.

"So the 'Fortitude's trying to save the fool"

When Pace swing his hand to deliver the punch, he's knocked down by that man, rending him immobilize for a moment.

"Now Il Matto, come with me or~ would you rather seen them suffered because of your foolish choice"

That man snapped his finger once again and the famiglia members curled into balls screaming in agony as they relived their pain once again. Seeing his famiglia being tortured torn his heart.

"NO, STOP I'LL COME WITH YOU DON'T HURT THEM ANYMORE!"

He declared to the man. Smiling beneath the masked, the man pull Liberta into his arms and flashed away leaving behind the stunned and gravely injured members of the famiglia.
