Text: Wolfpack? That's their name? How tacky even for that blood traitor. My Cavalieri are so much better than... a wolfpack. I need their names, fratello. All of them.
Text: Si. He calls him that and si we are better. I get you names. Give me time and I send you names.
Text: Fratello, I need you to do something for me. I want the names of the people working for my brother. Every single one of them. In order to reach my brother and punish him for what he did, I must take those pawns out of the equation. Will you do that for me? Grazie.
Alonso: Of course she lied, Cavalieri. She was trained to do whatever Gabriel told her to do. She was his prime bitch after all... second only to the bastardo. You deserve a good rest, my brother. Father would be so proud of you now. So, so proud. I know I am.
Capricorn: She didn't fool me, Capo. Now or later, I would have had to do it anyway. I will rest, si. She stabbed me but no worry. I can fix myself. Padre teach me. Other marks too but I will make up story if he asks. I know he's proud. Padre see me kill her. I kill her where they kill him. Grazie, fratello. You...and Padre Giovanni. All I have. I keep you proud.
Alonso: I knew I could count on you, Guerra. I did told you, didn't I? He will betray you in the end. Don't worry, Cavalieri. Soon you will get your hands on the bastard. Very, very soon. Thank you... my brother.
Capricorn: I see now. She told me he didn't kill Niccolo but I know she lied. I will be patient to get him. You are welcome, Brother. Tell me when you need me again.
“Don Niccolo is dead. Signore Graziano has ordered me to Sicily to keep his Madre safe. This must be kept between us for he does not want Desiderio or Don Giovanni to know. Keep Desiderio safe.”
The words were spoken in fluent Italian, from Risa to Capricorn. Prying, cold eyes watch as she readies herself for her long flight to Sicily. It’s already proving to be true, just like Alonso said. Dante being killed enraged Capricorn more than anything ever has. Now he’s learned that another one of his father figures has met his end and the details are so vague as to how it happened. He just knows that Gabriel has something to do with Niccolo’s death. Like Alonso told him, only Desiderio matters. Just like with Dante. Gabriel went to such great lengths to protect his brother and lover, and let his father meet the end of his life. Niccolo was added to the list to endure that fate.
Letting the woman continue to gear up for her job, Capricorn slipped away into another part of the Graziano manor, contacting Alonso. The most dangerous of the Twelve is furious and the youngest Graziano is doing what he can to calm him over the phone. He’s told not to be too obvious and after further orders of calming as well as, unbeknownst to Capricorn, manipulation, the ultimate order is given.
Gabriel’s trusted captain of his beloved Wolfpack. Kill her.
As he returns to the main part of the house, he acknowledges that Desiderio is preoccupied with Gabriel. In some random conversation that Capricorn’s lack of English makes it hard for him to follow, and at the moment he couldn’t care any less. He walks Risa out without as much of a single word to Gabriel, speaking to her in the flawless Italian he was taught while growing up.
“Signora. I will escort you to the airport to meet the private plane. I have to make sure you get there safely."
Capricorn notices the odd look coming from Risa, considering Gabriel never said anything about the Russian taking her, and he does his best to smile, to come off as genuine.
"You don't have to, Signore. I can handle myself, but thank you."
"No," Capricorn replies firmly, closing the trunk of the car after loading her things in. "I insist. People are dropping all around us. We can't take any chances. If you never make it to Sicily, Signora Graziano won't be protected."
There's an accomplished feeling that flows through him when Risa just nods and quietly thanks him. No more words are exchanged as he opens the door to the backseat and she gets in, silently offering to drive her. Obviously Capricorn offers no real conversation material and for that matter, neither does Risa, at least until he makes a random turn...away from the airport.
"Signore Capricorn... Where are you going? This is the wrong way." He doesn't say a word, doesn't even give a glance to her in the rear view. She unbuckles, thinking maybe he didn't hear her, and leans up so she can better catch his attention. "Signore... I..." But before anything else can be said, she's silenced with a quick, powerful elbow to the face. A small sadistic smile curls at the corners of his lips as he hears her drop and slump back into the seat, muttering for her to shut up in Russian.
He intends to give her the same treatment that Dante got... and he knows she was present. Present to see his father get killed, under the orders of Gabriel to get Desiderio out. By default, Risa's already against Capricorn and this was going to happen anyway. He pulls into the gate of warehouses, having it on good authority on which warehouse Dante was killed in. He just stops the car and before he can put it in park, he's blindsided by a hard pistol whip to the side of his face. "Signore Graziano will kill you for this alone," growls an angry Risa, quickly aiming the gun at him. Capricorn takes little time to recover, hitting the gun from her hand and none too nicely grabs a fistful of her hair, stepping out of the car and drags her out with him. She's a feisty one, fighting the whole way as he pulls her into the warehouse, after he beats the door down. He practically tosses her to the floor, kicks the door shut, and steps forward, watching her gather herself to stand.
"Signore Graziano will not do no such thing, for he will not know. You will die in here alone. Nobody to save you. Just like my father. Gabriel takes him away. Takes way father Niccolo. I take you away and then..." He gets a sadistic grin. "When it's time. I take away Desiderio."
"Capricorn, Signore Graziano did not kill Don Niccolo. We don't know who did and that why he wants me to go protect his mother." She's struggling but still strong as she stands up. The gun she had at hand was left in the car when he knocked it away and she prepares herself for the fact that she'll have to rely on her agility and other defense skills to get past him, rather than the easy firearm.
"Just what you want Capricorn to think. You lie. You all lie. He did it. I know he did. He wants to leave me with nothing. Nobody. I do the same thing to him." Capricorn's so calm, it's scary. This is what he's been trained for since he was a child. Eliminating. He's at his element. The two circle each other and he snickers briefly. She's ready, thinking she's going to defeat him.
Risa doesn't take her eyes off of him. It's obvious he's had exposure to someone else. Someone who has been filling his simple head with lies and manipulations. "Signore Graziano would not do that to you. He asked you here to look after Desiderio, who is the precious person in the world to him. He would not have turned on you. But is too late now. You are, however, right about something. He will not kill you. I will."
"Cute." Capricorn almost has humor in his thick accent and from one moment of circling each other like predators do with prey, it's a fast switch to them rushing each other, locking up in the center of the warehouse. It's only briefly though as Capricorn wastes no time in using his strength to spear Risa into the hard concrete wall several yards behind her. He delights in the sound of the air being knocked out of her, soon followed by the gasping for air. He keeps her pinned there by her throat, watching her try to struggle out of his grasp and getting a certain twisted arousal from it.
Risa's still putting up a fight, both hands at Capricorn's strong arms. Hitting, clawing, pinching. She realizes it's doing nothing and if she keeps up on that, he really will take her last breath. She keeps her training in mind, being trained by Gabriel. Keep her calm and analyze her next move. Use strategy. Capricorn is a man of pure power and strength, who does nothing but destroy. It takes just a second, if that, to realize what she needs to do. Shifting her weight as well as where her hands are, they go to plant themselves at the back of his head and she uses his strength against him. He pulls his head down, using his power to force her knees up and drive them into his face.
With a grunt, he lets her go and she falls to the ground with a sickening thud on her side and a grunt of her own. She manages to daze him some and it grants Risa her own recovery time, though she knows the impact from the drop has done some damage to her ribs. Capricorn stands with his back against the wall for a moment to let the cobwebs clear before approaching once more, catching her right as she's at her knees to try to get up. Again his grasp finds her hair, which pisses her off and in a move meant for transition, she pulls a blade she always keeps in her boot and sends it plunging into side. She fully intends to twist it, and gets to at least start it, getting out a bit of a roar from Capricorn, but he shoves her away.
"Bitch!" He growls out in full on thick accented English, pulling the knife out. It's a word he heard several times coming from Dante, when he found out about the plan with Carmen and that she fell for it. Seeing Risa caught her footing, he charges for her and the intention is to drive the blade right into her stomach, but once he's close enough, she uses her quickness to take him off his feet with a roundhouse kick right to the jaw. It sends Capricorn back several steps and takes him down to a knee even with the knife dropping to the floor. Her battle injuries thus far are the furthest from her mind as her adrenaline is running high. She take the opportunity while he's down to give him a good, hard knee to the nose, bringing out more growls from him. It makes him fall back to the floor and he's somewhat groaning in pain.
She steps up, breathing heavy with a soft smirk. "Not bad for a bitch, hm, Signore?" She kicks him hard in the side but before she can get out of reach, he quickly reaches and grips her foot, pulling her down with him. She manages to snatch up the blade on her way down and rolls up on top of him with every thought of driving the knife through his throat. She raises her hand up and brings down with force and just as she's sure she's got him, he grips her hand and they're flipped over. Capricorn's bloody face is directly over Risa's, her hand still struggling with his for the blade.
"You put up a good fight. He trained you well, but it is all for nothing. Perhaps one day I will tell him how you stood your ground. For now... he will have no knowledge."
Risa's hand is still the one wrapped around the handle of the knife, but Capricorn's is around hers. With a sinister expression, he begins to force her hand down, the blade of the knife getting down closer to her. "Pray to your maker."
It's right then that Risa realizes she's not going to make it out of there. She tries to fight his strength but he's much too strong, shaky hands trying to rival the knife's lowering. "You are making a big... mistake."
Capricorn doesn't acknowledge her words with anything but a surge of strength, stabbing her deep in her heart. He watches her take her death, his face full of pure fascination. The knife twists and she cries out as the knife goes into the hilt the rest of the way. Fierce eyes watch as the other's life drains from them and her entire body goes limp. He feels pride consume him. Alonso would be proud. Once the body is disposed of, he will make the call, job done.
Whatever rocks your boat, dude. I’m actually quite found of kissing. But don’t worry, mio cavalieri. You’ll get to hurt Desiderio. Once the time comes, you can do whatever you want with him. He’s my little present for you. You deserve it. For Padre. I’ll handle the backstabbing brother. Don’t insist with Desiderio. He won’t tell you and he might suspect something. Regarding telling Gabriel… if we don’t find what is, then we will use my brother to our advantage. All is going according to plan, si?
Why you say boat? Not on boat. -looks at him oddly.- I earn harm on Desiderio. I like. I make sure he suffer long for Padre. For now, I behave and do plan. I tell you when I talk to Padre Giovanni. I play good bodyguard. Then make Desiderio suffer and make Gabriel suffer.
Depends on the intentions behind the kiss, Capricorn. A kiss can be used as a weapon. As letal as any punch.
[chuckles at the mental image of Desiderio in the pool.] That would be something interesting to see. He was the reason why Padre Dante came here. I know it sucks but needs to be done, mio cavalieri. It will come the time where you are welcome to rip him limb from limb. Then you can let all frustration go out and avenge father. He would be so proud of you. In his eyes, you are more than a son to him than Desiderio will ever be. That’s why I need you. To avenge our Padre. Try to learn Giovanni’s secret. If he doesn’t tell you, not only Gabriel is manipulating him but means we will need to find another way to get that secret. Si?
Not Capricorn style of lethal. I do not kiss. No. Padres tell me if get too close, ruin me.
-cracks a small smile at the chuckle.- Capricorn will do plan. No mistake. Will keep him safe until can hurt. Will ignore impulse for harm. I wish Padre let me come here with him. He not be dead. Desiderio not deserve Graziano name. Will try find out secret and Giovanni not tell me, I try make Desiderio tell me. Maybe I tell Gabriel Desiderio have secret? -pauses and thinks about that before shaking his head- No no not want Gabriel know secret. Will find out. Some how.
You never kissed before, Guerra? Don’t you enjoy a man’s lips against your own?
Because you are nothing but a pawn to him, mio cavalieri. My brother uses people. The only reason why he called you was to protect Desiderio. The rest doesn’t matter. He’s a clever, calculist man. You know that. Maybe his plan is to… dispose of you when you’re no longer needed. And what better way to do it than sending your Padre? [lays one hand on Capricorn’s shoulder] If he doesn’t tell you, it means that Gabriel is getting to him. But I must ask you, per favore, to keep with our plan, si? He needs punishment for what he did to Padre Dante.
No and do not want. Why I want kiss? Too close. Too much touch. Padres all tell me, not let person get too close.
Nobody dispose Capricorn. I not let him. Or Desiderio. I go with plan. Not forget. They pay for him. Will honor Padre Dante, make him proud. I tell secret. Do not like keep Desiderio safe. Want to throw out window. Drown him in water. Many things. But I will keep watch and I will tell you what happen. Make Padre Dante proud. Make you proud.
Must be something incredibly revolting. Nothing against two guys kissing… just not those two. He’s keeping it a secret from Gabriel as well? [taps his chin] It means it’s something important. Something really important if Zio Giovanni doesn’t want Gabriel to know. Think you could persuade Giovanni to tell you? You two were close… And if he doesn’t trust you, then it’s a sign that Gabriel is turning him against you, mio cavalieri.
Why Gabriel do that to me when he want me keep Desiderio safe? -thinks to himself.- Padre not want me to know. Said Desiderio go alone. But will try to make him tell me.
