Mafia Chains

Part 3

DIANAS POV

 I wake up to shuffling on my bed and see Kate climbing out of the bed sleepily and walking to the front of the house. Only then do I acknowledge the banging on my front door. I leave Kate to open the door. After a while the banging stops and i hear hushed voices outside my room. 
"You can come in you know" I say sitting up on my bed and throwing my hair up into a messy bun on top of my head. The voices stop almost immediately and my bedroom door opens slowly. Kate lets herself in followed by my father. 
"You made it here quick papa" I say without looking up. 
"La data viene spostata in avanti" I look up. Leave it to my father to forget about everything and get straight to business. "The date is being pushed forward" He says. "After graduation" 

I couldn't say I didn't see that coming. One look at Kates face and i knew she was going to object. Just as she opened her mouth I gave her a stern look and she shut it again. "10 days" 

"Sì" 

"ok" and with that he left.  Kate watched him out before returning to the bed and climbing back in next to me. 

"No" She says immediately. 

"What do you mean 'no' does it look like I have a choice in the matter" 

"10 days! You are not prepared for this!" 

"Says who?, I've been preparing for this my whole life." I am ready for this aren't I.  What am i saying of course I'm ready. 

"Well I'm going to make breakfast then. Pancakes?" Kate asks getting up. I nod my head back at her. 

The next few days pass by in a nervous flutter. Kate stays at my house every night. I'm beginning to believe she is grieving over my mother more than I am. with 4 days left till graduation Kate and Makayla have both dragged me out to buy an outfit. Anything but a dress. Those were my only conditions. I don't even understand why I have to go to graduation I could easily have my diploma posted. Anyways I would need to prepare for the ceremony that night. As strange as it sounds its nothing remotely strange. All it is, when one from the leading family comes of age or is being given the seat at the head he or she must have the words "One Family, One Loyalty."  engraved on to their dominant wrist.  

I mentally noted that I needed a hot blazer for graduation and a perfect gown for my ceremony. My dad would have a fit if I turned up in anything less than a lavish ball gown. As we walk past boutiques in the mall Kate and Makayla are talk about some TV show and something glimmering in the corner catches my eye. I turn facing the prettiest black ball gown I have ever set my sights on. A silk ankle length gown adorns the mannequin in the window. Its off the shoulder and black. A long slit from the bottom till the middle on the left side of the dress. It was perfect. I would pair it with gold stilettos. By now Kate and Makayla were both following me into the shop. As soon as I entered I looked around for a customer helper person thingy. Seeing one lurking in the corner I walked up and asked her to get the dress down. Getting it down I assessed it its alterable enough to add bulletproof padding. I nod at the server and she takes it to the till.

BANG! 

Knew it. 

The dress was not the thing that caught my eye before no no no. It was the laser pointer from someones rifle.  I point my gun at the shooter. Kate next to me her gun in her hand. 

 "Say the word boss" See this is what I like about Kate she always knows when to be Mafia Kate and Best Friend Kate. 

"Call for backup, there's 5 of them" I whisper to her. I see her nod from the corner of my eye as one of the men come up from behind her and I immediately shoot him in the shoulder. Kate gives me a grateful look as the rest of my men come in holding the other four men by their collars.

Pff...amateurs. I think as I walk to the till dusting off my trousers when i realise blood seeping through the grey colour of them. Well shit they were expensive as well. Oh well. I collect the bag from a stunned shop clerk. Who gives me a card reader.  £1987. Meh. I tap my card and waltz out of the store.
