Cora's POV
I have been trying to get my mind off everything that is going on. I went to a bar got a drink. I couldn't finish my drink because everyone here looked at me strangely and I felt uncomfortable, so I paid and left.

A while later I realized I was been followed by two guys. I dipped my hand in my pocket and held my knifes. I didn't want to use my gun because it will be too noisy and it will draw attention. I led them in an alley.

Just as I was about to throw my knife, someone pushed me from behind. "I won't do that if I were you." He said.

Hearing his voice brought fear into me. I became the girl I really am and I am trying to get rid of. "What do you want father?" I asked him when I got up.

"I just wanted to show you something." He said and stepped aside. Behind him was two men holding a bloody,injured and unconscious Luca. It was a horrible sight. "Don't worry. I will give him back. He was just used to send a message. He came out looking for you and my men got him. He tried to fight them but they beat him up. And when he saw me, he called me fucked up old man and yelled at me to stop all the evil I do." He laughed. "It's funny because he thinks I would stop what gives me joy. Having a heart makes people weak." He walked around me and I stood still. "I need to go now I need to attend to your brothers but you will be seeing me really soon. But if you want Luca,you are going to let those two guys beat you up till you can't stand." He said pointing to the guys who had followed me. "Oh e ai tuoi fratelli manca la loro sorellina ... peccato che non siano qui per assistere a questo"

The mention of my brothers almost made me tear up...almost. I miss them so much. I wonder what they've been going through.

" Now drop your weapons." He said. And I dropped my gun. "All of it." Then I dropped my knives, all of them. If it meant saving someone that I actually don't want to see dead."

The men took my knives and gun. "Why are you doing this?" I asked him.

He walked up to me and slapped me. Then he grabbed my hair and made me look at him. "You've gone too long from home, you have started to question me. But remember child. No one questions me. Nemmeno la tua bella madre."

Then he push me on the floor and I was on my knees. "Co..cora."

We all looked in the direction of Luca, he was awake and was looking right at me. "Good you are awake. Now let the magical show begin." My father said and left into the darkness. The men came to me and began punching me, kicking and all sorts. Luca had to watch because he was being held by the other men. And I couldn't do anything partly because Luca's life depends on it and I felt weak. One of the men stabbed me in my stomach with my own knife. It hurt as hell. Then he remove it and did the same thing to my arm, then he twisted it. It made me go crazy. And I screamed. He removed the knife and they continued beating me. It went on for a while. They didn't stoped until I looked as bad as Luca. Hell even worst. Then he pick up my knife again and stabbed me in the leg. He removed it and dropped it on the floor along with the rest of my weapons. I was in so much pain that I couldn't stand or move but I didn't cry. When they saw they had successfully done their job they kicked Luca who had being yelling at them to stop, on the floor and turn to leave taking the same way my father went through.

"voi quattro ve ne pentirete" I managed to say "I will kill you as...assholes myself. Te lo prometto." And they all laughed. Why wouldn't they? I looked completely pathetic. Then they completely disappeared into the darkness.

"Cora, Co...ra" Luca called to me. But I could feel myself slipping out of consciousness.

"I...will be...fine." I said. Then I let everything go black.

Luca's POV (From when he left the hotel)
I couldn't stop thinking of Cora and all the things she said. No one should have to go through that. How can a man be so cruel to his child. She was six. I can only imagine the pain. I always heard stories about her. The fearless Agent stone. The one Zeus saved. I was in the car the day he saved her.

We had just finished a mission and were waiting for the agency to send us a ride.
When the van came, Zeus said he wanted to make a call. So I left him and went into the van that came for us. I rested my head on the chair. I was so tired and smelled of blood. I wanted to go home and just run a hot bath.

A while later I heard a loud scream. The driver immediately drove to where he thought it came from, while I loaded my weapon. We stoped in front of an alley nearby. I was about to get down when Zeus entered carrying an unconscious girl. And immediately the driver stepped on the gas. She was bruised all over, her feet were so bloody, it was obvious that she had been running.

He laid her on the chair and I recognized her, we all did. Zeus looked at me and we looked back at her...she was the daughter of the man who has caused us the most pain. She was unconscious, I went to where she laid and pulled out something that was injected in her neck. I had never seen it before. I kept it in an evidence bag, while Zeus cuffed her.

I was so lost in the memories of the past that I didn't notice I was been followed until I realized I had worked to an abandoned place. I saw two men in front of me and two behind me. I tried fighting but they over powered me and it wasn't a very fun experience. The beat the shit out of me. When I thought they were done. I came face to face to Mr. Rains, Cora's Father. I lost control, I was so angry. This was the man that caused a lot of people pain. He took my family away. He is forcefully taking countries and turning people into slaves.

"You fucked up old Man." I yelled.

"You better watch your mouth son. You life and you brother's life depends on it." He said with a smirk on his face. I launched towards him but I didn't get far. I was grabbed and beaten up again. "Stop this evil. Stop Haven't you done enough. You cruel asshole." I yelled at him. I was now to weak to stand.

"Caring for others is who you are isn't it son? It makes you weak. Some of your friends are my prisoners. I believe Thelma is part of them. Did you like the girl I sent in place of her. I heard you guys have history together. I wish I was there when she fooled you all.

"Fuck you old man."I said. I was angry, I tried fighting but I was to weak. He punched me and everything went black.

............

I woke up to see Cora on her knees and her father in front of her. "Cora?" I said and they all looked at me.

"Good you are awake. Now let the magical show begin." He said and left. Two men came and started beating up Cora and she didn't do anything.

"Stop. Stop hurting her." I yelled and yelled. I tried to set myself free but I was to weak and these men were strong. I just watched them beat her and stab her three time. Once in her stomach, the other in her hand and the last in the leg. When they were done they threw me on the floor I hit my head hard. I was so dizzy. I made my way to Cora and I felt her say something but I couldn't seem to hear.

She was losing consciousness fast. She told me she would be alright or something then she closed her eyes. I could feel myself slipping out of consciousness and I needed to act fast.
I couldn't find my phone so I searched for Cora's own I found it in her back pocket. The phone's screen was broken but it still works. Lucky for me the phone wasn't pass-coded. I called Zeus immediately. I began to feel my eyes close.

He picked some seconds later. "Hello."

"Alley... Cora' father...injured... unconscious." Then everything went black.
