[23.] I'm So Sorry Sweetheart

{{VITTORIO MARIANO}}

When I woke up I realized she wasn't next to me like she said. I started to panic a little then I realized she was probably just in her own room. I ran straight down the hall and opened her door. What the hell? Every trace of my girl was gone. Her books, her clothes. Even her soap. Everything she has left here was gone. I glanced at the bed to see a note.

I'm so sorry sweetheart.
I had no other choice.
-D.M

She's gone? Oh no no no. Please no. I ran back to my room and grabbed my phone. The first person I can think of is James. He knows everyone and everything, surly he knows where she is right?

"Hello?" He answered.

"Dip, please help." I walked downstairs checking every area she could possibly be. "Damara is gone. She left." I was 100% panicking now.

The woman I love just left me. What the fuck is happening? Did I do something? Did she do something?

"What? That's not like Damara. She always tells me or Artemis where she goes. Even if it's to the fucking store. Did you do something?" He asked.

"No, not that I can recall. When I went to bed everything was fine. She was washing the dishes and said she would come to bed when she was done. But when I woke up she wasn't in bed or even in her room. All I found was a note. No other trace." I explained.

"She is good at disappearing. Damara's been doing it for years Vittorio. Don't worry I'll find her. Worst case scenario If I don't I'll come down and see what we can do collectively." He hung up and I sat down on the couch.

><><><

The knock on the door sent me out of my trance. I walked to the front door and opened it to see Artemis, James and their daughter. They rushed past me and into the office.

"Has she done this before?" I asked.

"Only once." Artemis mumbled typing on her laptop.

"She bought a plane ticket and left Berlin. It doesn't even say where she went. Clearly she doesn't want to be found." James mumbled.

"It doesn't add up. We were happy. We were so close to catching Atlas. Why would she just leave? What happened last time she did this?" I looked at them both with worry.

"She wasn't... her. She had lost someone." Artemis sighed.

"I know, she told me about the girl. Kaylia right?" I asked.

"She's never told anyone that wasn't us about her. She must really be opening up to you Vittorio." James mumbled.

Then why did she leave.

"Best guess is she went home." Artemis shrugged. "But you can't find someone who doesn't want to be found. Last time we tried to track her down she was long gone. She's not herself when she looses someone. She becomes the real, Angelo della battaglia. All she sees is red. She goes on a rampage." She explained.

Damara, baby. What, have you gotten yourself into. What the hell happened. Why are you gone my love.
