Avery :Thank you!
Enzo : Anything on Giovanni?
Luciano : No
Enzo : No attacks?
Luciano : No
Enzo : Good
Luciano : What's the plan? You shouldn't take his threats as a joke.
Enzo : He said he'll go after my people. You and Avery are safe here. He won't do anything.
Luciano : That's your plan? To hide?
Enzo : I'm waiting for him to start the war. That way I'll blame him for the destruction.
Luciano : I see...

A I R P O R T

Guard : This way ma'am. We're almost there.

-gunshots-

Avery
I immediately duck behind the guards.
They fired back at the men who were shooting at us. The thing is- there's more of them.

Unfortunately the guards who were in front of me were taken down by the rivals.

I stood up and ran as fast as I could.
I know they're running behind me.
I don't think they want to kill me. They would've pulled the trigger by now.

Since we're at an airport, it's very crowded. There are a lot people who keep getting in my way.

Avery : Move!!

Avery
I tried getting past all these people but unfortunately, they caught up to me.

Attacker : You're coming with us.

Avery
Before I could even react, someone injected something in my arm causing me to black out.

W A R E H O U S E

Enzo : Lara!!
Lara : The war has started.
Enzo : How the hell did he find out properties?! They were under Avery's name!!
Lara : It's Giovanni Romano we're talking about. He's intelligent! Why do you think he's the most dangerous Mafia leader?! Do you really think we can compete with him?! No Enzo!! I suggest we drop it and go back to our territory! We can do whatever we want over there!
Enzo : No! I'm going to give him a fight!! This is a battle! This is war!
Lara : You! Not me! I'm going back to Italy!
Enzo : No Lara! You've been loyal to me for years! Are you going to break that loyalty now? I need you!
Lara : Do you really?
Enzo : Si (yes)
Lara : For once, I'm scared Enzo.
Enzo : I'm not going to let anything happen to you. I care about you. Really I do. -kiss- Just stay with me baby. I promise I'll reward you.
Lara : I'll do it because I love you...
Enzo : Thank you gorgeous. -kiss-

-phone ring-

Lara : Where's Luciano?
Enzo : He's in charge of sending men to attack back. Now give me a sec.

-phone call-

Enzo : Hello?
Pilot : Boss! Your wife was kidnapped at the airport by Giovanni Romano's men. They outnumbered us.
Enzo : Cazzo! (Fuck) thank you for informing me. -ends call-

Lara : What happened?
Enzo : Giovanni has Avery.
Lara : You see what I mean?
Enzo : Lara, I need you to keep an eye on the cameras. Inform me of every single one of their movements.
Lara : I will.
Enzo : But first, locate his wife.
Lara : Audrey Romano
Enzo : Exactly!
Lara : Should be easy. I'll have her in no time!

Giovanni's Office

Andrew : Capo! (Boss) they have her.
Giovanni : Perfect! I need you to go to school and pick up my children. Bring them back to the house. I'll take care of everything. Protect them with your life!
Andrew : You know I will.

W A R E H O U S E

Lara : Bingo! Audrey Romano is a nurse. She's currently working at the main hospital.
Enzo : Good job Lara. It's up to you and me to go get her.
Lara : Oh yeah! Let's do this.
