Well here it is this is the end of Rocco's sister! hope you enjoy!
Chapter ten.
Ana took a look out the curtain trying to find those Beautiful Blue eyes she fell in love with; with no luck she walked dressing room.
"What's wrong Hun?" Jessica asked.
"he's not here." Ana pouted as Tess helped her put her black wig on. Someone calls show time in 2 minutes and Ana put a smile on her face. She stood and took Tess's hand. They sent a prayer up to Rudy dedicating the show to her. Tess hugged Ana before grabbing a mic and walking to front stage to welcome everyone.
"5, 6, 7, 8!" The Announcer Says, as The Dance captain is pacing back and forth waiting for someone.
"Has anybody seen the Kelly sisters?" He asked as he pointed to someone, "You, you're up in 5."
Ana walked on stage, with a black Wig and her black flapper costume.
"Where the hell have you been? And where is Veronica?" The dance Captain asked panicked.
"she isn't herself tonight" Ana said
"But tonight's your sister act."
"Don't sweat it. I'll can do it alone. Shit! All right!" Ana said; he rushed her onstage.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the Onyx club is proud to present Chicago's hottest show in the world. Two Jazz babes moving as one. The Kelly sisters!" Ana walked over by the piano and started to sing 'All That Jazz'
"Come on babe
Why don't we paint the town?
And all that Jazz
I'm gonna rouge my knees
And roll my stockings down
And all that jazz
Start the car
I know a whoopee spot
Where the gin is cold
But the piano's hot
It's just a noisy hall
Where there's a nightly brawl
And all
That
Jazz
She sang a couple more verses before Jessica and Reed walked onto the left side of the stage.
"Jazz" Jessica as Roxie Hart said from the other side of the stage.
"Let's go, babe." Reed Michael as Fred says
"But l didn't even meet your friend. That; that manager guy."
"Don't worry, Roxie. It's all taken care of."
"You told him about me?"
"Yeah, kid. lt's all arranged."
Ana started singing again as Jess and Reed pretended to make out as they went to Roxie's apartment.
"Oh!" Jessica says, "Hello, Mrs. Borusewicz."
"Mrs. Hart." The older woman said giving them a disgusted look; Jessica smiles and tells her that Fred was her brother. They entered the room and jumped onto the bed.
"Say it again." Jess said, crawling over to Reed
"You're a star, kid. My little shooting star!" Reed told her; Jessica giggled and kissed Reed. Ana was led of the stage in handcuffs. She smiles as she changes into her jail outfit.
"you did great!" Tess said, "you see them?"
"No but he said they'd come before they left." Ana whispered, "He promised."
Tess Smiled.
"They're probably in the balcony so they aren't seen."
Ana nodded and walked over to Diana who was playing Mama Morton.
"i heard about your brother," she whispered, "I'm sorry."
She hugged Ana before walking to the stage. Ana stood there waiting for them to change the set to the Cells. Ana took a deep breathe and sat on a table legs crossed as Jessica and Diana walked into the main part of the jail.
"Hey, mama. Come here." she said,
"Velma Kelly? You're the Velma Kelly? You know I was there that night? I was there that night that you got arrested." Jessica said, Ana didn't even look at her
"Yeah, you and half of Chicago." Ana said holding up an article, "Look at this, Mama. Another story of announcing me in Redbook magazine. Not in memory do we recall so finishing horrible in double homicide."
"Maybe you couldn't buy that kind of publicity." Diana said
"Couldn't buy it? I guess I can keep these then."
"Let's try."
Ana walked to the side of the stage and quickly pulled off the jail house costume to show the Cell Block Tango costume showing off her legs; She smiled to Diana who walked backstage.
Pop.
Six.
Squish.
Uh-Uh.
Cicero.
Lipschitz!
"And now, the six merry murderers from the Cooke county jail in their rendition of The Cell-block Tango." The Announcer said
Pop.
Six.
Squish.
Uh-Uh.
Cicero.
Lipschitz!
He had it coming
He had it coming
He only had himself to blame.
If you'd have been there
If you'd have seen it
I betcha you would have done the same!
Pop.
Six.
Squish.
Uh-Uh.
Cicero.
Lipschitz!
He had it coming
He had it coming
He only had himself to blame.
If you'd have been there
If you'd have seen it
I betcha you would have done the same!
"Yeah, but did you do it?" Jessica asks her
"UH UH, not guilty!"
Suddenly Ana was in the front dancing;
"My sister, Veronica, and I had this double act and my husband, Charlie, traveled around with us. Now for the last number in our act, we did these 20 acrobatic tricks in a row, one, two, three, four, five... Splits, spread eagles, back flips, flip flops, one right after the other. Well, this one night before the show we are in a hotel Cicero, the three of us, sittin' up in a hotel room, boozin' and havin' a few laughs and we ran out of ice, so I went out to get some. I come back, open the door And there's Veronica and Charlie doing Number Seventeen -the spread eagle. Well, I was in such a state of shock, I completely blacked out. I can't remember a thing. It wasn't until later, when I was washing the blood off my hands I even knew they were dead."
as the song came to an end; the Audience clapped and the curtain closed. Ana walked to the side and smiled at Tess.
"so a cop dropped this by a couple of minutes ago." she said handing her a card. Ana smiled and read it.
Ana
I'm sorry but Connor and I had to miss opening night; by now we're on a boat heading somewhere. I know you'll probably never talk to me again but you have to understand how sorry I am. I'll write you every day.
I love you
Murphy.
Ana crumpled the letter up and threw it in the trash. Tess walked up to her and pulled her into a hug whispering how sorry she was that Murphy was a jerk.
That night after the show; Ana didn't go to the cast party. She drove to Rocco's grave and started yelling at him; for leaving her like Ruby did when he promised he would stay and take care of her. She hated him; he hated his Irish accent she became so accustomed to hearing when she came home from rehearsal. She hated his beautiful blue eyes she stared into for hours thinking that she was going to marry him. He promised he'd be at her show; he knew how important it was for her. He watched her work herself to death preparing for the show. She heard someone approach and take her in their arms.
"Lets get you home." Tess whispered helping her up. Ana clung to her best friend as they walked back to her car and drove to Ana's apartment. Tess helped her broken best friend up the stairs to her apartment and helped her into bed. She turns to leave only to hear a weak 'thank you' from Ana; Tess frowns but replies with an 'your welcome'. She walks out of the apartment to find a man standing by the door; it was the same man who gave her the note.
"can you get a message to MacManus?" Smecker nods; "Good tell him I ever see him again I'm going to take his gun; shove it down his throat and pull the fucking trigger."
The end!
i know i know i'm such a bad person! but i promise Murphy and Ana will see each other again!
