Lussaria; Mafia's Nurse

nineteen

"four" the stranger spoke through the quiet, tense room, sunny throat ran dry, there were two ways this could play out.

Either she refuses to drink and risk him shooting her or she could take the drink and fall right unconscious where he's still likely to shoot her after finding out she laced the drink. Whether the first or the latter, she was still gonna end up one way; dead 

"Three.." he counted again 

"Fine.." sunny spoke her eyes snapped from the poisoned drink to Rosa's face who slightly shook her head at her 

Sunny ignores her and grabbed the glass slowly with trembling hands and brought the drink to her lips, her heart racing as she did, her head was spinning, she felt like throwing up. This was all too much for a common nurse to take.

Without thinking, and Without caring for the consequences of what would happen of it all went wrong, sunny in one swift motion plunged the drink at the man beside her breaking the glass on his face in the process emitting a groan from him.. Rosa acted quickly drawing the weapon from the holster beside avac, she shot the man right in the head and pointed the gun at avac before he could react.

All this happened in under five seconds, in the blink of an eye

"Not so fast, big boy," Rosa said. The look on Avac’s face was almost comical. Sunny walked close to Rosa, staying beside her for safety.

"Who the hell are you?" He asked, his eyes darting between sunny and Rosa 

"Your little friend was right, they really could wave an ass in-front of you and you wouldn't see an asteroid hit" Rosa said drawing her wig off her head, and gently pulling the fake skin she wore in her nose and cheeks that slightly changed her look, sunny watched as Avac's eyes went wide 

"Rosa.." he said before chuckling "lemme guess, Santo's here too or wait.." his eyes moved to sunny "don't tell me this is him.." he chuckled 

"That's none of your business, now is it?, get up," Rosa said waving the gun in his face. Without wasting time, he got up with his hands up in the air in surrender.

Sunny looked out the window to the crowd of drunk people below them having the time of their lived oblivious to what was going on above, but amongst them were men trying to wiggle their way towards the stairs that led to the room.

"Rosa, in about 40 seconds we're gonna have company," sunny said 

"Okay sweetie, you're gonna walk us out of here," avac scoffed

"Like hell that's gonna happen," he said. Rosa smiled before tilting her head without warning. A shot was fired to his arm, drawing a loud scream from him "you.. bitch!" 

"Why don't we try again? I wasn't asking, I was telling..now move?" She pointed the gun towards the door. This time, without hesitation, he moved. Rosa and sunny stood behind him as he pulled the door open, only to be faced with the barrels of several guns 

Rosa grabbed hold of his collar, using him as a shield 

"Drop it or I'll shoot!" Rosa screamed at the men. both none of them moved a muscle. "tell them to drop it, o lo giuro, cazzo,"  ("or I fucking swear") 

"fate quello che dice, lasciate perdere, idioti," avac screamed at them before they finally dropped thier weapons (" Do what she says, drop it you idiots")

Sunnys watched all this happen from behind Rosa. Both of them walked out of the room and into the hallway, dragging avac along as they walked with him in-front of them and a gun pointed to his head.

They were almost at the stairs, but before they could move any further, someone grabbed sunny from behind. A yelp left her, drawing Rosa's attention to the bulky man that held a gun to her head 

"Now you drop it or I'll shoot," the man spoke 

"No.. please." sunny whimpered, her eyes shut, she felt a tear run down her cheek, Rosa sighed, her hand released from Avac's body and immediately a jab was sent to her stomach, causing her to fall to the ground 

"Kill them both," avac said before stumbling past them down the stairs 

"Sorry ladies.. non succederà, eh..." his body fell the ground stilling both sunny and Rosa and all the other men that watched, they all looked at the body only to find him dead with a hole in the head ("it’s not gonna hu...") 

"You work alone, huh?" A voice sounded in both Rosa's and sunny's ears 

"Rico.." sunny whispered a smile on her face as she searched around the crowd for him 

"Asshole, you just love to steal my spotlight, don't you? " Rosa said, getting up from the ground. The other men stared, dumbfounded. None of them came forth scared they would meet the same as their partner.

"Maybe you should run after the target, don't you think?," Rico said to Rosa. Rosa walked up to sunny 

"You need to leave before you get hurt," Rosa said before walking past sunny and down the stairs, fighting her way through the crowd

"Sunny.." Rico spoke "you're in deep shit" 

Sunny sighed. She knew he was right. She was in deep shit. Santo was gonna personally kill her 

"Oh, for fuck’s sake.." Rosa groaned before shots were fired in the air. Screams and shouts echoed round the club as everyone ran out through the exit door, some stumbling over some, but all had one goal: to flee for their lives 

"Out the back door, sunny," Rico said, and she nodded before weaving her way through the frantic crowd. She was out the back door...

She ran further away from the club but froze the minute a black van stopped in front of her. Her heart sank, for all she know this could be avacs backup 

The door suddenly opened

She smiled the minute Santo stepped out

She has never been this happy in her life.
