"Shut the fuck up." The guy, Max, hissed as he nudged Mello in the side with his gun. He had long blonde hair like Mello's but had it pulled back into a ponytail. He was of strong build and wore a black shirt with long sleeve which he pushed up past his elbows.

"Damn." Mello kept his face blank as they slowly advanced toward the other waiting mafia members. "You would have thought I would recognize you sooner given you are Jay's twin, Joseph."

"Twin?" Matt exclaimed and turned to get a quick look at Joseph before facing front again. Joseph was the same height as Jay but whereas Jay had a muscular build, Joseph's was more lean and athletic. His hair was short, unlike Jay's, and was a darker shade of brown. Even still they looked very much alike.

"Yeah, twins." Mello answered. "Hey, fat twin, is Lucchese here?"

"Will you shut the hell up for two second?" Max prodded Mello in the side again. "And yes he is. So don't do anything to make him shot you on sight."

"I'll be a good boy if you tell me what's going on." Mello whispered as they got within earshot of the other Mafia members.

Neither Joseph or Max had any time to answer as they all came to a halt some feet from the other mafia members. A large well-fed man in a white suit stepped out one of the vehicles. He walked up to Mello, quickly took a pistol from inside his suit jacket, and held the weapon the Mello's head.

"Hey Lucchese. You must being doing well. What's that suit? Armani?" Mello commented airily, refusing to be intimidated by the much older man.

With his other hand the Mafioso back-handed Mello across his cheek. Matt took a step forward but Joseph pulled him back.

"Do you know how much trouble you've caused me? Give me one reason I shouldn't shoot you right here, right now." The older man growled.

"'Cause you'd get blood all over your nice white suit." Mello answered.

"And you," Lucchese turned to Matt and held the gamer's chin between his thumb and forefinger. "What the hell did they go fucking around with you for? Damn idiots." He muttered. "Such a pretty thing though. No wonder Mello stuck with you."

"Hey, that's my boyfriend you're talking about." Mello interrupted.

"He's probably the only one that can deal with your bullshit." Lucchese didn't even turn to look at the blonde. Instead he turned to Joseph. "Get these two out of my sight. I want them dead before the hour's up." He released Matt.

"That'll be hard to do since there's only a minute left in the hour." Mello smirked.

Matt sighed heavily and hung his head. "We're going to die for sure." He said under his breath.

"I want them to burn." He pointed to the construction site. "I want people in Miami to see the fucking smoke, you understand?" He reached over and grabbed Mello by the hair. "Looks like I get to kill two birds with one stone. I never wanted that shit built anyway."

"Well actually it's three birds then, counting Matt." Mello smirked insolently.

"You never could resist commenting. I'll see you in hell." He patted Mello's face roughly before returning back to his vehicle. "Lucky, Charles, Gio I want you to stay and make sure they get the job done." All three nodded in response. The rest of the mafia returned to their vehicles and followed Lucchese's back to the main roads.

"Move." Max nudged Mello toward the construction site. Joseph did the same with Matt. The other three followed close behind.

"This sucks. Being burned twice is a bitch." Mello commented loudly.

"He's right, you know. You never can resist commenting." Matt sighed.

"Who's side are you on?"

"OK. Let's get this over with." Joseph said. He and Max turned on Lucky and Charles, guns raised. The other two mafia members instinctively reached for their guns but stopped when they heard the click of a gun hammer come from behind them.

"Hands up." Gio commanded. He winked at Matt and smiled. "Remember me?"

" Um, yeah but what are you doing here?" Matt asked.

"Helping these two save your ass." The Italian replied.

"Give us the keys to the car." Max commanded. The Mafioso, Lucky, reached into the inside pocket of his jacket but before he could withdraw his hand all the way Joseph aimed his gun and fired. Blood sprayed from the bullet hole in the man's forehead.

"That's payback for shooting my brother." Joseph said calmly. He turned, aimed, and fired. Another spray of blood shimmered in the air.

"Fuck! Dammit!" Gio yelled as he wiped blood from his face. "You can't wait for five fucking seconds so I can move?" Joseph shrugged in response and bent down to retrieve the keys.

"Let's just get done here and we can leave." Jay's twin went to the car and grabbed a few explosive from the back.

"What are you doing?" Matt asked as they began set up the explosives.

"The building that's being built is bad for both families' business so we're blowing it up." Max grinned roguishly.

After they finished set up the explosives they dragged the bodies further into the construction site and went back to the car.

"Danny didn't send you did he?" Mello asked.

"No." Gio answered. "We did tell him what we were going to do though." Matt ducked instinctively as the explosives went off. Everyone else seemed unfazed.

"At least now we get to go with you." Joseph laughed. "We have to stop and get Jay first though."

"Where are we going?" Matt asked.

Mello laughed. "Wherever the hell we want." He was still laughing as Gio pulled over and Jay entered. Their friend punched his brother in the arm and ruffled Matt's hair playfully.

"Did I miss something?" He asked.

"We're finally free of this whole mess. Damn, I can't wait to finally leave this place." Mello threw his arm around Matt shoulders. "I guess that means we get a chance to start over."

The red-head shook his head. "I don't want to start over. I just want things to be better." He gazed sadly out the faintly tinted window.

"You'll see Todd again. Don't worry." Mello whispered in his ear.

"Don't worry, be happy." Jay sang softly.
