Mi Náufrago

Searchful Universe

*2 days later. Rome, Italy*
Gianluca's POV:

It took me a while to believe that Piero was never dead, that his crazy stalker had him captive and manipulated everything for her favor. After I heard it all from him, I decided to give him my help.

He had been begging me to help him find Luna but I just couldn't tell him so he could just show up at her door like he did to me. Specially because he doesn't know about the existence of Victor. I could tell he couldn't remember much about her, only the moment they first meet.

After knowing that and the fact he had escaped from Esther, I decided to help him in both things. I rented a small apartment not too far from my house so he could stay there and lay low. Helping him on finding Luna wasn't going to be easy but I had thought on something that the world had to see and know.

With that, little by little Piero would start remembering more stuff about her, of course I would tell him little facts about her, and leave the big shock for both for the end.

I stood in front of Michele's building and just stared up at it. I just hoped that the plan I had in mind wouldn't hurt many people...

*Inside*

"Thanks for seeing me Michele." I said shyly for a strange reason. It had been ages ever since I last came into his office and it just felt so unfamiliar.

"You know you are very welcomed here Gian. Now tell me... What was it so urgent that you had to tell me in person about?" He leaned forward in his chair and gave me his full attention.

"I would like to go back and sing." I simply said.

"You came all the way here just to tell me you want to keep singing?" He asked me.

"Well yes. But I don't want to go solo." I said. Michele looked at me a bit confused and leaned back in his chair. He made gave me THAT LOOK. He knew I was up to something.

"I'm all ears." He replied and now I was the one who leaned forward.

"I have been thinking on getting Il Volo back together. It's been many years since we don't make any music for the fans. Yes I know without Piero isn't going to be easy but.. Hear me out. What if we get someone who can reach his notes? We could start casting for someone and make it mysterious for the public to be more intrigued at what you have in mind now." I blurred it out.

He only sat down and tried to process everything first. He got his thoughtful face mode on and then he spoke. "I like you idea. But first we must talk about this with Ignazio, he should be here too and see how soon we can start with this plan. You have matured a lot over these couple of years Gian, and I can perfectly tell. Could you stay here in Rome for a couple of days? I would like for you to be present when I get to put the plan out to the company."

"Yes I could stay no worries." I replied.

"Good. I would start by calling Ignazio while you let my secretary know your plan so she can try and visualize what we are about to present at the next meeting." He got up and walked around the room then stopped behind me. "You know, I never even came across with something like this for you two. Piero's death also affected me a lot and if this is a way for me to help you two, I would gladly do it."

"We got our selves a deal then?" I asked and stood up to face him.

"A deal it is." We shook hands and hugged after 4 or so years later. I was happy now. And so our plan had begun.

*Palermo*
Ignazio's POV:

I had left Victor at his grandparent's house and remembered I wasn't that far from where Luna was working. She got accepted to carry Piero's case and her team was going to be sent over here.
