Chapter 2: Blood Seal
BloodyDemon666: Welcome back my demonic corpses, it seems that the Triad have stolen a blood seal from the Continental and now it seems that a old face has come back into John's life, Santino D'Antonio, a member of the Italian Mafia and the one who brought John into the assassin life, Spoiler alert for anyone who hasn't seen the movie, and it turns out that he has John Wick's blood seal as well.
John: Also to the guest that asked if Santino is going to be in here, yes, he's going to start in this chapter.
Santino: Of course, if you really wanted to see if I was going to be in here, all you needed to ask and I'm glad that you did.
BloodyDemon666: Anyway here's the next chapter…
[John's house, the next day…]
I was playing fetch with the dog as Aurelio and a tow truck appeared, Revy was a little upset that I trashed the car.
"Could you tell my idiot boyfriend over there to stop smashing up all the damn good muscle cars? They're fucking hard to come by." Revy asked and Aurelio began to asses the damage of the car.
"What the hell John? I thought you said you love this car." Aurelio asked as he saw the damage to the car, and he began to list the damages, "Your engine's about to fall out, your chassis' all bent up, if you haven't noticed...there's a crack in your windshield, and to top it all off, your transmission is busted, but I can fix this." Aurelio said, and the tow truck hooked up to my damaged car as it began to lift up from the back.
"So what are we looking at here?" I asked, and Aurelio had this to say…
"I'll have her done by Christmas...2030." Aurelio said, and Revy was about to blow her lid.
"2030?! We'll be old people by then!" Revy barked, and the dog came up next to me with the ball in his mouth and he wanted me to play fetch with him.
"Your girlfriend is right, you need to stop trashing muscle cars, they're very hard to come by." Aurelio said as he got back in the tow truck and they took the car back to Aurelio's shop.
[Later that night…]
The doorbell rang and Revy went to the door to answer it, there was a shadow of a man with semi curly hair casted on the frosted glass door, it turned out it was Santino D'Antonio.
"Who the hell are you?" Revy asked, I then went to the door and knew it was Santino.
"Ciao, John." Santino said as he reached his hand out wanting to shake my hand, and I reached out and shook his. *Posso entrare?* [May I come in?]
*ovviamente.* [Of course.]
Santino came inside while his bodyguards stood out making sure that no one intruded during our conversation.
*Caffè?* I asked if he wanted some coffee while we had our conversation, and he happily agreed.
*Grazie, Mio Amico.* [Thank you, my friend.] Santino said in Italian, and Revy was getting a little annoyed that we were speaking in a foreign tongue besides English.
"Who is this woman that you are with right now?" Santino asked in English and just to piss off Revy I answered…
*Lei è la mia ragazza, Il suo nome è Rebecca.* [She's my girlfriend, her name is Rebecca.]
"And it seems you have a really nice dog too, much nicer than Rebecca." Santino said as he gently petted the dog.
"Fuck you." Revy sneered, and it
"Thanks." I said and the dog didn't attack Santino, and he was taught better.
"Does your dog have a name?" Santino asked, but Revy answered for me.
"It's Rusty." Revy said, and I didn't have time to name the dog, but I guess the dog's name is Rusty then.
"I see." Santino said as he kept petting Rusty, and he just yawned and enjoyed Santino's company.
The coffee brewing system just finished brewing a pot of coffee as I pulled out three cups, one for me, one for Revy, and one for Santino.
I poured the coffee into the three mugs as Revy grabbed one and she fixed her coffee to her likeness, and I handed Santino a mug.
"What did you come here for Santino?" I asked, and Santino pulled out a blood seal from his suit pocket.
"I need you to do a favor, I know you might be a retired assassin but you can't escape from the things that you did.
"What the hell is that?" Revy asked, and I knew that there had to be a reason why he had the blood seal.
"This is the reason why I need John Wick back, this is a blood seal and if you break the rules, then you're going to face the dire consequences." Santino said as he opened the seal and showed my blood print.
"Is that your's John?" Revy asked, and I knew that Santino was going to bring me back into this assassin lifestyle.
"It is, and I don't take great pleasure in doing this for you Santino, I'm not that man anymore. I'm afraid you're going to have to find someone else. And take that with you." I said refusing Santino's request of whatever it is, little did I know that there were consequences for me refusing Santino's request.
"You're not always that person John, but you should know, if you break the rules, then you're going to have to deal with the consequences, and I'd hate to see you and your girlfriend end up in a casket together." Santino warned and Revy was about to blow her top.
"Just who the fucking hell do you think you are threatening us in our house?!" Revy snapped and Santino tucked the blood seal back into his pocket, he then drank his cup of coffee and he headed out of the house.
"I'll give some time to think it over, *buona notte* [good night] John, buona notte Rebecca." Santino said as he went out and I began to regret what I just said to Santino, but it seemed that refusing Santino's request was the least of our worries…
But little to both me and Revy's knowledge, Santino had a Milkor MGL grenade launcher as he loaded some explosive rounds into the house and the explosion of the grenades sent me and Revy flying out of the house as we both watched the house burn to the ground.
"Goddammit!" Revy said, and everything that I cherished was burned within the house, and I got up and helped Revy up as well.
"You alright?" I asked making sure she wasn't hurt, but she sure was totally pissed though.
"Far from it John, how much did this house cost?" Revy asked, and if I could ballpark an estimate…
"Around $240,000, with all the appliances." I answered, and Revy knew that this was the home Helen and I shared, and now it was destroyed.
"Well, I'd say we should deduct that out of that Italian's ass and rebuild while we have a chance." Revy suggested, I guess it was time to see Kiyome and she might have something about this.
[The next day…]
Revy, Rusty and I began to head to the Continental, but we had to walk since we didn't have any means of transportation.
As soon as we got to the Continental, the three of us went up to the front desk and there we were greeted by Charon or the desk clerk.
"How nice of you to join us again Mr. Wick, what can I do for you today?" Charon asked, and I got straight to the point.
"Is the manager in?" I asked, and Charon nodded letting me know that Kiyome was in.
"She is always in, should I phone you in sir, along with your lady?" Charon asked and I accepted his offer.
"Please." I said as I began to head towards Kiyome with Revy, Revy then held her hand out to stop the dog from following us.
"Stay." Revy said as the dog sat there and stayed with Charon, Charon then picked up the phone and called Kiyome.
"Mr. Wick and Ms. Rebecca are on their way to see you." The Desk clerk said over the phone, and Kiyome was inspecting the gold coins that we assassins use as currency.
"These are very impeccable as always, get these out to be circulated." Kiyome said as she placed the coin back into the case and the coins went out to be circulated for currency use.
She then saw me and Revy as we both looked like we've been through hell and we both were.
"Do you know who the hell does that Santino guy think he is?! He blew up John's house!" Revy snapped and Kiyome took a look at us and she knew that we just pad the price for turning down Santino D'Antonio.
"What did you do? I mean I heard that you turned down Santino D'Antonio's request, but you got to remember there are two unbreakable rules in the continental, one: No business is to be conducted on Continental grounds, and two: All blood seals must be honored. If those rules are to be broken then your membership is revoked with your execution or you're considered excommunicado. Both of which I hate to do, but I will if you don't oblige. Did he ask you what he wanted?" Kiyome asked, and he didn't.
"He didn't ask us for Jack shit!" Revy answered angrily and Kiyome snickered for a second.
"Funny, if you want to find Santino, he's got a museum located in downtown Manhattan, he'll be waiting for the both of you, also I could care less if you trash his house and claim it as your own, or kill him while he's having his morning espresso, but for now, remember the rules, as Winston would say, 'If there are no rules, then we'd be living with the animals.'" Kiyome said as we both headed to the museum where Santino was.
[Santino's Museum]
We were stopped at the front where a mute woman who happens to communicate in sign language.
[Santino wanted me to check you both, so you're first.] She signed as I raised my arms up and she patted me down, she then grabbed my ass and Revy was getting really ticked about it.
"Get your fucking hand off of my boyfriend's ass!" Revy hissed, and the mute woman removed her hand as she began to do the same thing to Revy, she even grabbed her breast as if she was groping her. "Hey, what the fuck are you doing?!" Revy snapped and she began to sign…
[My apologies, I am doing what Santino told me to do, and it was make sure you weren't going to kill him.] The mute bodyguard signed.
We then walked in, and Santino was standing in front of a revolutionary painting, and Revy just hated art.
"What do you think?" Santino asked, and Revy was just growling.
"Revy, relax." I said, but it seemed I was pouring gasoline on a fire and she was getting more pissed.
"First off, I hate art, and second, give me one good reason why I shouldn't beat ¾ of a million dollars out of you for blowing the shit out of John's house which also happens to recently b mine as well." Revy said and I grabbed Revy as she was about to do something that she might regret.
"Have you forgot, I have many men who work for me surrounding the building and I really would like to offer you a job." Santino said, and that was what I was here for.
"Alright, what's the job?" I asked and Santino got right to the point.
"I need you to go to Italy and kill my sister." And Revy thought that he was some psychotic son of a bitch for asking us to kill his sister.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" Revy asked and Santino had a reason why he wanted her dead.
"She's got a seat with the high table and it was left by our father, and she rightfully robbed it from me." Santino said, but that was just part of the issue, we still needed to deal with Alice.
Just then, my phone rang and it was an unknown number, so I decided to answer the call.
"This is John." I said, on the other end…
"Hello John, I'd like to have a conversation with you, meet me at the Kwin Shei restaurant in Brooklyn." Alice said as she hung up.
"What was that about?" Revy asked, and I had to tell her…
"We need to go to Kwin Shei. It turns out Alice wants to see me." I said, and Revy knew all about the Chinese Restaurant.
"That's a really elegant Chinese place in Brooklyn, how the hell did she get a reservation?" Revy asked, and that was on my mind too, but we need to find out what she wants.
