Song of the chapter: The city-1975
...........................................
Xander's POV
After leaving the basement I walked down the hall, it's walls stained with blood coupled with bullet holes etched into the once smooth surface.
Body bags were piled in one corner of the hall on top of one another, as the stench of death littered the hallway. Picture frames hung loosely on the wall while shards of glass decorated the dirty tiles.
The faint cries of the injured echoed through the silent house along with the sound of drills drilling into the walls of the living room.
Walking down the hall I heard the sound of chatter coming from the kitchen, hearing the voices of my mama and papa talking. In hushed voices they spoke frantically in Italian until finally they went silent.
I decided it was best to make my presence known as I entered into the kitchen, only to see the tiredness etched into my mothers face as my papa stressfully ran his hand through his hair.
"Papa" I said making his head turn in my direction.
"Xander,mio figlio, did you get any information from Sam?" He questioned as he rolled up his sleeves, revealing one of his tattoos.
Leaning against the wall I let out a disappointed sigh as I shook my head answering his question, an answer he did not like. I watched as my father's hand clenched and unclenched with anger evident in his face.
"So you're telling me he didn't say anything about who planned this!?" He asked as he stood up from the stool.
"Well besides his agonising screams, then yes he didn't say anything" I muttered resulting with a backhand to the back of my head by my mama.
"comportarsi" my mama scolded me as both of my parents exited the kitchen, with me following behind them.
"Who's dealing with Sam at the moment" my papa asked as we turned round a corner before continuing to walk down the hall until we reached the basement door.
"Antonio" I answered, opening the door to the basement allowing my parents to go in first.
I was just about to enter the basement after them when I stopped, hearing someone calling my name. Turning in the direction I had heard the voice I was greeted with a worried Leo.
Lana's POV
After leaving the room the boys had found me in we walked through the halls, looking for Xander. The place was a mess in the area that we were in, bodies were strewn on the floor or leaned against the wall, their wounds still oozing generously with blood.
Blood splatter decorated the walls and floor as we continued to walk down the hall, and the stench of death made my eyes water. My eyes scanned the dead bodies that laid untouched on the floor, but there was one body that caught my eyes as I neared to it.
"G-guys I think that guy over there is still alive" I managed to sputter out as the man began to choke.
"Lana-" Leo said as I made my way over towards the man, my heart hammering in my chest.
Squatting down to his eye level I reached out to see his injuries on his neck, only to realise that he had none.
"W-wait what!?" I whispered but it was too late as I felt the man pull me into his chest placing a knife to my neck, as he stood up.
"Let me go" I said as I tried to wiggle out of his grasp but he only placed the knife even closer to my neck.
"You heard her man, let her go" Leo said as he pulled out his gun pointing it directly at us.
"No I-I won't because I'm not stupid, you'll only shoot me the second I let her go and I don't want to die, not yet" he shouted .
"Look we can make a deal, your freedom in exchange for the girl-" Leo bargained but he was interrupted by the man once again.
"No, I'm going to make the shots around here, and here's what I want!" He shouted as he pulled me even tighter to his chest.
"W-what exactly do you want?" I questioned trying the calm down my breathing.
"I want you to get Xander so he can watch and feel what it's like to see someone you love experience pain" he spat as I tried to struggle against him.
"Stay still you little b*tch!" He snapped as he held the knife even closer to my neck drawing blood.
"Well what are you standing there for, go!?" He exclaimed
I watched as Leo stared into my eyes asking for permission to leave as he seemed unsure of himself as to whether he should leave me behind.
"Just go, I'll be fine besides Roberto and Kevin are here anyway" I said trying to reassure him as he went off to look for Xander.
