After coming up with a plan we headed to Yakavetta's, though things didn't go to plan. Some ass hole decked me and next thing I know I'm chained to a chair next to Rocco, Murphy and Connor.

Some nameless thugs walked in.

"Thought you boys were so smart huh? Thought you wouldn't get caught? Now your gonna tell me who helped you or I'm gonna put a fucking bullet in each of your skulls."

He then started beating us but we all refused to talk. After what seemed like hours they left the room.

We all had blood running down our faces, staining our clothes, flowing over the floor.

I spat out the blood from my mouth.

"You guys ok?"

Connor answered me first.

"Yeah lass were fine, take more than a fucking pansy like that to hurt us. You doin ok?"

"Yea I'm holdin up."

"Well get out of here don't y-"

The door slammed open and Yakavetta himself walked in, he walked with a very determined look. I didn't even noticed the gun till it ringed off a shot, straight into Rocco's chest.

I gasped and lunged towards him chair and all trying to move closer to him.

"NNO! ROCCO NO!"

Connor in the midst of all this confusion had managed to get himself free, he reached around and untied me from the chair.

I pulled Rocco into my lap. Tears falling from my eyes onto his face, cleaning him from the blood.

"No Rocco, dovevamo proteggersi a vicenda! Non posso perdere ti piace questo! Si prega cugino non mi lasciare, cosa dovrei dire a mamma? Si prega di non posso fare questo senza di te! Per favore!"

No Rocco, we were supposed to protect each other! I can't lose you like this! Please cousin don't leave me, what am I supposed to tell mom? Please I can't do this without you! Please!

"Si fa così male .. Mi dispiace non potevo fare di più."

It hurts so much.. I'm sorry I couldn't do more.

"Prego non lasciarmi ... Rocco …"

Please don't leave me... Rocco…

He then died in my arms, I started shaking as I sobbed and cried out his name, Connor buried his face into Rocco's chest and Murphy was running a hand across Roc's brow.

We sat there crying till there were no more tears. I held his head in my lap, and the boys prepared Rocco for their family blessing by placing pennies on his eyes, the pennies ment for Yakavetta. Before they kneeled down and started their prayer.

"And Shepherds we shall be For thee, my Lord, for thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand Our feet may swiftly carry out Thy commands.-"

A voice from behind cut them off.

"So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomeni Patri Et Fili Spiritus Sancti."

I made it to the basement without getting caught and froze when I saw the back of Il Deuces head. I knew that build anywhere. My hand found the knife I kept with me at all times and I walked quietly down the stairs keeping an eye on the old man. "Who the fuck is this?" Kat's voice rings through the silence. It's apparent to me she was sobbing before hand.

"Its our dad." Murphy said from where he was out of sight. My eyebrows shot up and I put my knife away before peeking around the older man. "Where have you been lass?"

"It's only so easy to escape alright. I'm just lucky I had Matteo as a guard." I muttered under my breath before surveying the scene. Rocco's dead body lay between the brothers and Kat. I frowned and said a quick prayer in Italian before making a cross. "You'll be missed idiot."

"Boys get your friends and let's go. We have some business to attend to."

We were all holed up in some hotel room as Rosie explained everything she knew thus far. Murphy watching her from the corner of the room next to Deuce. Connor and I curled up on the couch across from them.

"Yakavetta wants to kill the boys, he won't stop till they're dead."

Deuce took a long puff from his cigar, and sat there in silence before speaking.

"Then we will have to finish this."
