IT'S been a decade and a half since Regan last saw this man standing in front of him. Ibang-iba na ang hitsura nito mula nang huli niyang makita si Vito kaya naman muntik niya itong hindi makilala. He could still remember the days where they always fight inside the La Cosa Nostra until they almost kill each other. Regan didn't say anything as he was staring at Vito who's looking back at him contemptuously while grinning and it was as if he was telling him that he looked pathetic.
"Ah, the mighty Regan!" basag nito sa katahimikan bago siya nilapitan. Vito grabbed a handful of his hair and pulled his head up to make him meet his eyes. "The fucking arrogant outsider who got everything he wanted yet he's in this position, kneeling in front of me pathetically. What should I fucking do to you, hmm?" Saad nito bago patulak na binitawan ang kanyang ulo saka siya nito malakas na sinipa sa kanyang sikmura.
Regan coughed before he gritted his teeth and turned his eyes back to Vito. "What the fuck are you doing here, Vito? I thought you left the family?"
"Did I?" he asked innocently before smiling. "I never left the La Cosa Nostra, Regan. I chose to make y'all forget that I exist in this organization and maybe one day I can get back to you for taking that position that's supposed to be mine."
"I see. The fact that your jealous ass didn't change within those years that I hadn't seen you only means that you're still the weak, feeble, and coward motherfucker—" Regan didn't manage to finish his sentence when Vito threw him a heavy punch and he immediately tasted the blood inside his mouth. He then gave an insulting look to him before spitting in Vito's direction. "You called me pathetic when I am more useful in this organization than you?"
"A mere dog like you in this mafia will never get the chance to know me, Regan." tugon nito sa kanya. "It is you who changed within those years that's why you reached your downfall, and you'll suffer within the hands of the man you called coward."
"You can never win against me, Vito." Sagot niya na kinatango ng lalaki.
"Probably." Tugon ng lalaki bago humalukipkip. "I heard you had a son. Twins, isn't it?" he added that made Regan glare at him. Napangisi ito dahil sa reaksyon na ipinakita niya bago ito mahinang natawa. "Did you know what East told me to do after I fucking make you obey him again?"
"Don't even fucking try it." Regan spat every word coldly.
"He told me to haunt your sons and to add some fun in it East wanted you to watch me kill them." Vito said mockingly and Regan stood up before trying to move closer to him. The chains rattled with the force he did but Vito laughed at him tauntingly. "You can try to stop me if you win, Regan. But I doubt it will be possible."
"Unchain me then we'll see." Sagot niya na kinatango ng lalaki.
"Yeah..." he paused and the grin in Vito's lips disappeared as he stared at him coldly. "Where's the fun in killing when my opponent is helplessly tied...right, Regan?" dagdag nito sa isang walang emosyon na boses. Regan could feel it; the intense bloodlust coming from the man standing in front of him. It was different from the cowardly teenager he's been training with before and it was as though Regan was staring to his boss.
May dalawang tauhan na lumapit sa kanya para kalagan ang kadenang nakakabit sa pulupulsuhan niya. Regan massaged his wrists before he removed the clothes he was wearing as his eyes never left Vito. They both stepped into the middle of the spacious chamber and Regan didn't waste any second to attack him. Every punch he threw towards Vito was heavy and strong. He pulled his strength and clenched his fists tighter before giving a solid punch from the bottom, but Regan was stunned when Vito caught his arm and plunged his knee towards the side of his body before he moved away and spun to give him a reverse roundhouse kick in the face.
