LCPD, 30 minutes later...
"Why is my sister in handcuffs?!" Toni asks after seeing Gionna cuffed to a chair.
"She intervened in the course of justice, assaulted an officer in the process." The cop nearby says.
"It's a first time offense, let her go! And where did this happen?!" Toni says as Francis walked over to them.
"It ain't no first timer. And this was outside the Triangle Club, I responded there after a gunfight broke out inside. Guess it caught her off guard, cut her shift short at least." Francis says.
"Triangle Club?! She's just a kid, she doesn't work there!" Toni says in disbelief, Francis chuckling.
"You obviously don't know, then. Hey, bring up Cipriani's file." Francis says, nudging the other officer who brought up the police database file about Gionna. "See for yourself. Occupation, Triangle Club stripper, nickname Gigi." He says, turning the screen to Toni.
"Public Intoxication, misdemeanor assaults, all normal teenage stuff. Don't you remember your teen years, Francis?" Toni says.
"Yeah, I do and they weren't full of a criminal record. And certainly not the more serious…" Francis says, scrolling to the bottom of the page. "...counts of vandalism." He finishes, Toni seeing two vandalism counts, to a store and 3 months later on an SUV.
"If I can correct that, I was thrown at the store window and the SUV because of Billy Grey! Check the hospital records!" Gionna says.
"Sounds like you should've arrested Billy." Toni says.
"Doesn't matter, vandalism is vandalism and I wasn't the one who judged those cases. Now she's got officer assault, intervention in justice and destruction to property nice and new on that list, it's no wonder stripping was the best she could do." Francis says.
"Any first year law student could argue that she used necessary force to protect innocent people." Dave Grossman says after walking over to them.
"Maybe so but we can't help that the club owner wants to press charges." Francis says.
"Against the hitmen who shot up my business, not my employee!" Dwayne Forge says after walking in. Francis growled, walked over and uncuffed Gionna.
"I recommend keeping that rookie who grabbed my ass on a leash." Gionna says.
"Noted. You still committed officer assault, by the way. I'd calm the fuck down before stripping becomes your only option as well as your stupidest." Francis says.
Gionna flipped him off before walking over to Toni, who hugged her before they joined Terry and Juana outside.
"SUV incident happened when?" Toni asks.
"July 4th 1996. Billy got drunk and violent." Gionna says.
"Are you two okay?" Toni asks.
"Yeah, we're alright." Terry says as Dwayne and Dave joined them, Gionna shaking Dave's hand and hugging Dwayne.
"I owe you one, Dwayne. Sorry about the damages." Gionna says as they let go.
"Don't worry yourself about it, nothing the club ain't been through before." Dwayne says.
Once back at the apartment in St. Marks, Gionna scrubbed her makeup off and got dressed for bed before hearing Toni knock on the door and letting him in.
"Sorry about Francis telling you before I could… are you mad?" Gionna says.
"A bit… did you think I would've started screaming all hell at you?" Toni says, Gionna nodding.
A knock at the door caught their attention and Gionna walked over to open it, Johnny pulling her into a tight hug.
"Johnny… I'm alright…" Gionna says, Johnny loosening the hug. "It's on the news already?" She asks.
"How else do you think I found out?" Johnny says as they let go.
"Bohan is full of chaos but that describes most of LC and Alderney. Is Billy spazzing out?" Toni says.
(45 Minutes Earlier)
"You're freaking out over a situation you've put her in repeatedly since she was 13, why is this time any different?!" Johnny asks, Billy slamming his glass of whiskey down.
"She shouldn't be working in a place like that!" Billy shouts.
"Hate to break it to you but you lost all influence in her life three fucking years ago when you flipped out over her losing her virginity!" Johnny says, Billy turning infuriated.
"He's got a point." Juana says after walking in.
"You're not Lost MC, fuck off kid!" Billy snarled.
"You're dumber than I thought if you think you scare me in the slightest." Juana says, Billy glaring at her.
"Billy, back off-" Johnny says, Juana motioning to the Tv and Johnny looking at it. "What the hell, is she hurt?!" He asks Juana.
"She's fine physically but after she defended me from being arrested, she ended up in the cell herself. Dwayne got her out and she's with her brother now." Juana says.
(Present time)
"Stop that." Gionna says, yawning slightly and swatting Terry's hand away when he tried to tickle her, Terry having snuck in through her bedroom window. "Don't give me that look, I'm not sleepy." She says.
"And pigs can fly." Terry says.
"I love you but you're a wiseass." Gionna says, stretching out in the queen sized bed as Terry pulled the white satin bedsheet and black comforter over her, Gionna's sleepy eyes closing and Terry stripping down to his boxers before climbing into the bed and wrapping an arm around her.
Across town in Atlantic Quays, Vincenzo led Juana into the warehouse.
"Well, so much for hello." Juana says sarcastically after Vincenzo slammed the door. "You know about the shooting, I take it?" She asks.
"It wouldn't have if you kept an eye on her!" Vincenzo says.
"Bullshit, you sent those hitmen there to terrify her!" Juana says accusingly, Vincenzo slamming his fist into the wall. "Why is where she works such a fucking threat to you, asshat?!" She yells.
"Because it's owner is involved in a rival gang, a gang which in turn is involved in the club! Gionna gets too involved with them and it becomes treason!" Vincenzo shouts.
"You have no problem with her hanging around The Lost MC!" Juana says.
"The Lost pose no threat to us, the same can't be said for these people, we're near enough direct rivals with them!" Vincenzo says.
Juana left and Vincenzo thought back…
(3 years earlier)
"Oh… hi. Vincenzo, right?" Gionna says after Vincenzo walked up to her in a room during a party at the Leone house, Vincenzo eying her and how she was dressed, a black lace mini cocktail dress, red stiletto heels and her curls falling to the middle of her back along with a smokey eye makeup look.
"Yes and Mr. Leone was just telling me how much of a good kid you are…" Vincenzo says.
"And you don't believe him?" Gionna asks as Vincenzo rested his hand on her lower back, Gionna stiffening up and backing away. "Don't touch me!" She growled, throwing her glass of red wine in his face… but it only made Vincenzo smirk and rest his hands on her slender hips, refusing to let go and pinning her up against the wall, muffling her mouth with his right hand as she tried to scream.
Vincenzo screamed in pain and backed away after Gionna bit him, slapping her across the face.
"This how you get off?! Treating a 15 year old like a whore?!" Gionna demands after hitting him.
"Well, it's what you fucking look like! Definitely open for it and definitely not 15!" Vincenzo shouts.
Gionna grabbed her Beretta Nano and aimed it at him, Vincenzo backing off.
"I'm gonna go home, wash your filthy touch off me and if you ever put your hands on me again, they'll be ripped off and shoved up your ass!" Gionna growls before leaving.
Out into the bitter night, Gionna jumped back as a black Turismo slammed on its breaks and Dominic got out.
"Damn it, Dom. You scared me." Gionna says, switching the safety back on and putting it in her holster as Dominic walked over to her.
"What happened?!" Dominic asks, pulling his suit jacket off and putting it on Gionna.
"I'll explain in a bit… can you just take me home?" Gionna asks, Dominic helping her into the passenger seat before getting in and driving off.
"Vinnie, what happened to you? Cheryl get feisty?" Mickey asks after walking over to Vincenzo.
"Some tiny bitch with a scar on her neck did!" Vincenzo growled.
