Song~ The search - NF



I sit in my new- very comfortable- bed and think about what I'm going to do. I know dam well the higher ups won't just let us go. It's not that easy.

They will come for us- Lucian and I specifically. We were there longer along with a couple other older kids. All the older kids are mafia kids. We were kids.

I need to be prepared for when they do come.

With that feeling in mind, I take my gun strapped in my boot, hiding it in the drawer of my nightstand.

I take a knife from my knife straps under my shirt and hide it under my bed. I leave the rest of my weapons on me and lay back down on my bed.

I close my eyes, not sleeping but resting.

~/~/~

As I lay here with my eyes closed, a knock on the door interrupts my peaceful state.

I roll out of bed and go over to the door.

When I open my door, Sebastian stands there with his hand in the air about to knock again. When he sees me he puts hand down and nods his head to the side telling me to follow him.

I do.

Gosh i should just leave but if i did run away i would have the Russian mafia, an assassin group, and Italian mafia on my back trying to find me.

No need to add to the list.

I follow my oldest brother to the dining room, even if I know where it is. We get there I take my old chair that i used to sit on and wait patiently for food. I'm not even hungry.

I shake my head as to clear my thoughts when a familiar face comes and brings out our food. Joanna. Joanna was the head maid- practically a nanny because of how much she did for us. She was about 40 when I left so she has to be in her 50's right now. She has such a motherly aura- hell she practically raised me sense my father was never loving towards me.

My face lights up in recognition, and I smile brightly at her. 'Joanna! I missed you so much! How have you been?' I sign.

She sees me and smiles at me too, though her face morphs into confusion at the sign language. She looks to Elijah for translation. I turn to look at him too.

"She said 'Joanna, I missed you so much, how have you been?'. Diovanna is selectively mute" he explains giving a small smile.

I turn back to Joanna who- even after hearing im not going to talk- smiles brightly at me. "I missed you too! Ah this house hasn't been the same!" She exclaims wrapping me in a tight hug.

I tense and bite my lip to prevent a whimper to escape my lips. Her hand is right on the whip mark on my back when I refused to fight Sandy, an eleven year old little girl.

A grown seventeen year old girl is not a fair opponent to an eleven year old.

Joanna lets me go and says she hopes I like the pasta she made. Everyone starts to eat there food, as do I.

I ate almost all of my plate of pasta with about three or four bites left.

"Are you gonna eat that?"I hear Matteo whisper ask. I just give a nod. In a slow motion Matteo reaches over and grabs my plate of food and slowly takes it back towards his plate.

Why he took it so slowly I have no idea.

"Very well, since I'm done and you seem to be done. Diovanna will you come with me to my office." Sebastian calmly says before walking out the room after receiving a head nod from me.

The office that used to be my dead beat of a father's.

Getting in his office I shut the door and slump into a seat in front his desk. He sits in his big fancy chair that he honestly doesn't need because he has no ass to fill the seat.

It's as flat as the door.

"Alright for starters, I just want to let you know we will all learn sign language soon enough so you can communicate with us and we can communicate with you." He states.

I give him a thumbs up letting him know I understand. 'Thanks.' I sign forgetting he cant understand me.

"I just told you I don't know sign language yet" he says, sarcastically might I add. I let out a breath and motion for him to give me a pen.

He hands me a pen and paper. I write down 'thanks means a lot'.

He gives me a nod. "Okay, I don't have any rules I just request that if you drink don't drive,text someone to pick you up as it's unsafe for you and others if you drive drunk" he starts. I give a nod of understanding because that's highly reasonable.

"Also if you go somewhere just let me know your leaving, I'm not gonna ask who- where- bla bla bla, I just wanna know your leaving incase something happens." he finishes, to which i give another nod. I stand up to leave when Elijah walks through the door.

I give him a nod in greeting and go to walk away when Sebastian stops me. "I need to ask you something" he says, voice loud and clear. I look over my shoulder raising an eyebrow.

"What happened?" He asks. Now this brings me to confusion. Like what do you mean. I turn around fully leaning my back against a wall.

'What do you mean?' I sign, now that Elijah is here. "She says what do you mean" Elijah translates.

"What happened at that school?" He clarifies. "They said police had gotten concerns about the school, could you tell me any detail?" Well that's sweet that he cares.

'It was just school, nothing special. Not sure what the concerns could have been about' I sign to him. Elijah translates. I'm not on best terms with my family and I understand Sebastian is curious but he needs to mind his business.

Please.

Sebastian stands from his chair, walking closer to me- a soft glint in his eyes. "Diovanna, I need you to be honest with me. If something happened there I need to know. I have the resources to help." He says, voice calm.

You may be a mafia but you don't have the resources or the information I have. You've never been on the inside.

'I can't tell you something I know nothing about. It was school, nothing more' I sign before walking out the door and back up to my room.

Sitting at my desk with a pen and paper writing down ideas in a cryptic code only assassin's from school would understand, just incase someone found this paper.

I've been working on my revenge for two years now. And now that I'm out of that school, it's my perfect opportunity to begin.

I'll take them out one by one. Slowly but it's better than taking on a whole ass mafia on at once.

I'll start with the Russians number one assassins before taking out the Blood Doves top assassins.

Maybe if I can get access to a laptop I can hack into some Russian data bases and see the whereabouts of everyone.

As I'm writing down the last of my idea in cryptic code, there is a knock at my door. What could any of my siblings possibly want now?

Upon hiding my notes, I walk to open the door. To my surprise, I find my twin standing on the other side. Unexpected after what she did tbh, she hasn't even apologized.

"I- uh- ok- I brought you clothes, and socks, and a bra, and underwear, there are a couple different options as i don't know what you like, and I'm only like 3 or 4 inches talkers so the pants might be a bit big but not to big but the shirt should fit pretty good I hope- oh my gosh I'm rambling I'm sorry- I'll shut up- you know what bye-"she rambles before turning around shaking her head.

I put my hand on her shoulder and she immediately looks back at me. Taking my hand off her shoulder, I sign. 'Thank you'.

Maybe she's changed.

She thinks for a second before speaking again. "Does that mean thank you?" She asks puzzled. I nod. She makes and O shape with her mouth before saying your welcome and skipping back down the hallway.

Yes skipping.

Turning around and closing my door I shower and change into the clothes Giavanna gave me. The pants are a bit big like she said but that's okay.

I lay down in my bed staring at the ceiling with one thought in my head.

Revenge.
