°•°FIREFLY°•° (Thomas Shelby x Male Reader)

part 20- Darby Sabini

It was raining late in the night and Tommy was walking to his car with Ian having been informed that Alfie Solomons wanted to talk to them, the two wanting to go as soon as they could.

Ian could briefly smell the fire as they walked past the blacksmiths, he was going to go on the other side as Tommy was about to open the door but stopped when a man popped out a gun pointed at Tommy they raised their hands as he got out of the car.
Once he did Tommy and Ian started fighting him, Thomas punched and kneed the man making him bend over Ian punched him making him fall before Ian stepped on his hand making him release the gun he grabbed it and turned seeing men had ganged up on Thomas, without hesitation he shoots two of them before being put into a choke hole.

The arm squeezing around his neck made it hard to breath as he struggled, he hit the man behind him twice with his elbow before two more came at him punching him in the face and gut as he tried kicking them a few times, the pain was so great he didn't recognize that one of them had a blade and had been cutting him in the face, arms and chest he had been yelling "GET OFF!" He wasn't sure if it was more for the men around him or the ones around Tommy either way he wanted them off.

He kept hitting the man behind him with his elbow eventually the man let go after being hit hard in the gut and he started fighting the two from before.

"Fucking Hold Them" someone shouted as Tommy and Ian kept trying to fight them off before they had Tommy down and started assaulting him with their feet and had punched Ian hard enough for him to stumble back hitting his head hard on the car before going to the ground, some started kicking him as well before one of them got on top and started to beat him as the other men pulled Tommy up he could barely keep his head up so someone pulled his head back by then the man on top of Ian had stopped his beating and stood with the others as Ian was going in and out of consciousness while Tommy tried to keep his.

He briefly saw Ian and the sight hurt him more than anything, it reminded him of when the police barged into people's homes and when he came back he saw Lorry holding Ian looking like that, he never wanted to see him in that state again.

"Thomas Shelby"
He saw Darbi Sabini in front of him.

"I missed you in my club, I was at the races","Sabini...","don't say my name, Jesus...Franco get my name out of his mouth" he said before the man presumably Franco roughly grabbed his face making him open his mouth and carefully shoved a blade in there "While your in there, do a bit of digging for gold, pay for the petrol" said Sabini, the man complied digging out a gold tooth handing it to Sabini before punching Tommy again.

"See how much I know about you? I even know what's in your fucking mouth!" Just then a faint pained breath was heard Sabini turned to Ian "ah yes almost forgot your lap dog, chose a fine one too, took out two of my men before I could blink..now that's devotion" he said while chuckling "sadly word is that devotion runs deep..becoming cemented loyalty, meaning I won't be able to break him to work for me" he said feigning sadness before turning back to Tommy.

"Look at me, Look at me...Look at me" he said as he forced Tommy's head up, he was losing consciousness "you take up with the Jews yeah, You think that's what London is all about? You can just come down pick a side you fucking clown!..Now your life is over"

"My face is the last thing you'll ever see on earth, your mistake, you remember that when you get to hell" he said before letting go of his head "Finish them off" two men pointed guns at Tommy and Ian both barely there in the head to think of much as a gunshot rang out before blacking out.
