TW: Murder
I opened my eyes, looking around. The boys were still sleeping, and the sun is starting to come up. I let out a deep breath, pushing myself off the concrete. I've decided to let them sleep while find my next hit.
The roads start to get busy around 7 in the morning. Which means if I want to beat traffic, I've got to hurry. I walked down the sidewalk with my hood over my head. The sky is dull and sunless, it looks like It might rain today.
I watched as a man walked out of a building. He looks like he has money. I walked faster and ran into him taking what feels like a wallet out of his pocket and a watch off his wrist, putting them in my pocket, "Oh! I'm so sorry!" I say with a worried expression on his face "No your fine that was my fault" and with that we went on our way.
I walked a bit before opening the wallet. In the wallet, there were multiple hundred dollar bills and a black card.
"Oh my gosh" I mumbled, closing the wallet. Whoever that was, he has a lot of money. Well before I took it. I looked at the watch, it's a diamond Rolex. That guy has to be a CEO. I heard footsteps behind me, I tilted my head to the building across the street, trying to see them in my peripherals. He has a black hoodie on and blue jeans with a pair of dirty white shoes.I walked into the nearest alleyway, pulling out my knife. I walked to the end of the alleyway, soon enough I saw him following me.
"Hey kid! Are you part of the Russian Mafia?" he asked me, pulling out his gun. Shit. He raised his gun pointing it between my eyebrows "You killed a buddy of mine" he took the gun off the safety and put his finger on the trigger I put my knife in my pocket and raised my hands.
A bullet will move faster than a knife, so it's best not to fight. "Hey I don't want any trouble" I backed up hitting the wall he walked in front of me letting the gun touch the middle of my forehead. I squeezed my eyes shut.
The gun came off my forehead and shot. "Son of a bitch" I opened my eyes and saw Giovanni pulling him back while Lorenzo took the gun out of his hand, shooting him with it. Once the man died, I slid down against the wall, trying to grasp what had just happened.
Giovanni kicked the guy to make sure he was dead. He stomped over to me, grabbing me by the arm and pulling me up. "What the hell was that!?" he yelled. "You almost just got fucking murdered! What do you think would have happened if we didn't show up!?" I looked at Lorenzo, he was standing there looking at me with his arms crossed.
"What the hell were you thinking!?" he shouted waiting for an answer "I- uh-" "You Uh!" he mocked before Lorenzo shouted "Giovanni shut up with the fucking yelling and talk like a normal person" I looked at Lorenzo as he walked closer to me and wrapped his arms around me. He let out a shaky sigh as I wrapped my arms around him.
"You scared me to death" he mumbled, resting his chin on the top of my head. "I'm sorry" I hugged him tighter, burring my face into him. I get go of Lorenzo and glanced over at Giovanni.
I walked over to him, and he pulled me into a tight hug, "I'm sorry for yelling at you. I thought we had lost you." I put my arms around him hugging him tightly "I'm sorry for running off" after we had let each other go we walked out of the alleyway.
"What's that?" Lorenzo mentioned pointing to my pocket, I pulled out the wallet I had stolen and handed it to him, "pickpocketed a guy. Look how much is in their" he opened it and soon had a shocked look on his face "This must be at least two thousand dollars" he folded the wallet and handed it to me "Theirs also a black card in their."
"So where is your hit at?" Giovanni asked "South" I mumbled "Let's go then" we walked for what felt like a couple of hours but was probably only thirty-five minutes There was a man with gray hair and was balding in the center, once he saw us he stared running "Get him" I said running after him.
The three of us split up trying to get this dude. We ran until the three of us cornered him. He had a smirk on his face while he clapped twice before two guys came out from the shadows, the old man had a gun, but the two guys only had knives.
I threw one of my knives at the old man, making him shoot me in the thigh, but also pinning him to the wall. I groaned in pain holding my thigh, I threw another knife, hitting him in the neck and killing him.
Lorenzo and Giovanni kept fighting, the two men looked to be in their forties, one of them was a big dude and the other one was a skinny white man.
I took my knife and put it in the back of the skinny one's head, he ended up getting me on the arm with his knife. I let out a sharp yelp in pain. While killing him, I glanced on the roof...theirs, a sniper. I turned around and heard a gun shot, the big dude had a bullet in his head.
"We have to go." I held my arm, trying to keep it from bleeding out. We tried to run but big men with black and white suits on came out from the shadows, they grabbed Giovanni and Lorenzo sticking a needle into their necks.
Panic set into my mind. Fuck, we're going to die. I got a knife from the ground and ran at one of the men, only to be stopped when one of them grabbed my arm and stabbed the soft part of my elbow with the needle. Almost instantly, I fell into one of the men's arms.
It was a matter of seconds before my eyes were forced closed by the strange liquid in the needle.
