Present – La Volpe P.O.V.
Giovanni had been gone for about an hour. I anxiously paced around the market place worried for my little girl. I then noticed Ezio lazing about in the haystack next to his house, I ran to him.
"Ezio have you seen Cesarina or your father?" I asked hurriedly. He sat up,
"You mean she hasn't returned?" He asked nervously.
"No. Why? Where was she?" I needed to know. The boy looked at the ground.
"She told me not to tell you…" He continued looking at the dirt, I was outraged,
"EZIO AUDITORE YOU WILL TELL ME WHERE SHE IS!" I grabbed him by the shoulder not caring about the shock on his face.
"She-she went to Vieri de Pazzi's house last night for an inside job…" he stuttered out. I let him go and he rubbed his shoulder. I knew my daughter was in the pigs house.
"Thank you Ezio." I said stiffly, Ezio laid back donw on the haystack and nodded. I turned around to the direction of the Pazzi house. I would most definitely get my daughter back.
Cesarina P.O.V.
I sat in the corner of the room, I could not believe this had happened. I should have been smarter about this, I should never have trusted Vieri. I sniffled, my throat and head hurt. Not to mention I have been coughing non-stop and sneezing as well. This did not help with thinking of a plan to get out of this stupid Pazzi house. I sighed and curled up once more, that was when I heard footsteps. Footsteps coming toward the door, in a panic I ran to the bed and threw myself under the covers. I heard the doorknob twist and I reached for my dagger. My heart raced, I felt around my belt, nothing. My pouch and Dagger were gone. I could hear my heart beat faster, I had no weapon. The door finally creaked open and I cringed, not knowing who was there.
"Nice try Cesarina, I know you are awake." Vieri's voice filled the room. I sighed and slowly sat up and took the covers off of my head.
"I heard you earlier trying to open the door." He walked towards the bed. I started coughing then noticed he had a small tray with him.
"Well I just came to give you some food, by orders of my father." He placed the small tray on the edge of the bed. The mall tray had bread, already buttered, and a cup of water.
"That's all." He started to walk out.
"Why am I locked here?" I asked quietly. He stopped and turned around with a sick smile.
"My dad wants to keep La Volpe under control, you are just leverage. I am not going to spill my father's plans to an insolent little girl, nice try." He turned back to the door.
"Wait!" I shouted. I waited for him to turn back to me.
"What?" he asked annoyed, I sneezed. He cringed at the sound.
"Can you get me those drinks in vials?" I asked, I had remember that was what Giovanni had given La Volpe.
"You mean medicine?" He clearly did not want to stay and speak with me. I nodded and coughed,
"Yes please." I wanted to remember that name, medicine.
"And what do I get in return?" He asked all of a sudden interested.
"I promise to behave and I wont try to escape." I looked down, not believing what I said. He walked towards me,
"Really?" His eyebrow rose, I nodded once more putting on the saddest face I could.
"La Volpe kicked me out, I have no where else to go anyways." I let a tear slip down my face. All of a sudden Vieri got angry,
"WHAT? He-he kicked you OUT?" He grabbed the edge of the bed.
"Yes, he did not want me anymore." I could see his face start to turn red. I knew La Volpe had yelled at me but I was sure that if I went back he would let me stay. I wasn't going to let this boy know that.
"Great Volpe doesn't want you any more…" He mumbled to hi self. All of a sudden he stood up and ran out of the room. I saw my chance. I got up quickly in case he would return and walked out the door into the hallway. I was about to go down the stairs when I saw my dagger and pouch on a table at the end of the hallway. I ran towards it and grabbed my stuff and put my pouch onto my belt. I looked around and saw a room wide open. I snuck in and saw that it must be Vieri's room, it was a little messy. I then noticed Vieri's sword. He must not wear it very often. I reached for it and decided that would be my gift to La Volpe. I started walking back down the hallway and down the stairs. It was time to get out of here. Sneezing I made it outside. I was starting to get dizzy again; my best bet was to lie down. Worried about someone seeing me I looked up at the house. It would be an easy climb to the roof. I climbed up balancing my prize with me and hoisted it over to the rooftop. I pulled my self up and lay down. I curled up and let myself fall into another deep sleep.
La Volpe P.O.V.
"Volpe!" I heard my name called as I was well on my way to the Pazzi house.
"Volpe!" I turned and saw Giovanni rushing towards me.
"The door was open," He had started,
"And?" I urged him on.
"There was no one in the house…" He finished and placed a hand on my shoulder.
"Don't worry I am sure we can still find her." Hr tried to comfort me. I couldn't believe it, all I had was two years with Cesarina and now she is gone. I felt myself going down; Giovvani grabbed my arm and put it around his shoulder.
"Come on Volpe, I'll take you home. Then I will continue to search for her." Giovanni lead me down the crowded walkways. As we were passing by Giovanni's house Ezio leaped up from his haystack and ran towards us.
"Where is she? Father, Where is Cesarina?" He asked hurriedly while grabbing his fathers free arm. Not getting an answer he looked between the two men. His eyes watered,
"NO! You-you didn't look hard enough!" His small hands balled into fists.
"Son please, let me get La Volpe home and then" Giovanni started painfully,
"NO! I ANT BELIEVE YOU! YOU SHOUD HAVE TRIED HARDER!" He pushed between Giovanni and I and ran down the street.
"Ezio! EZIO! Where are you going!" Giovanni asked in outrage.
"TO FIND CESARINA!" The boy shouted while disappearing into the crowd. Giovanni and I started after him,
"EZIO!" His father shouted.
