The surrounding noises are vague to Vito as he starts to open his eyes slowly, watching a brute man getting attacked by a masked lady with a Skaletta badge on her right arm, his ailing knee couldn't move due to the impact against the wall. The masked lady punches the brute continuously as brute can't get a chance to hit her back until he lifts her. Brute yells in power, "Haaahh... I hate a cockroach!", he throws her against the wall but she jumps up and uses the wall as an instant support to her gravity and jumps back to sweep kick his face which didn't make an impact on him.
She gasps before brute grabs her neck and places another hand on it, "Beautiful neck you go-". Brute gets his head shot by Masaf from his back and smirks, "No one hurts my allies. How dare they?". The masked lady unmasks herself as she appears to be Klethi, "Thanks Skargaz Fifth."Masaf rushes to Nasaf and carries him, "If you keep skipping the martial art, that's a disappointment, son.", he slaps Nasaf hard as he wakes up gasping out, "Father!", he hugs him deeply, "You came.". Masaf nods, "Never skip the class. Remember, one day if I die, who will save you? Only yourself and your alliance. Now let's get outta here!".
Suddenly surrounding doors break out and over 50 brutes break in with sledgehammers. Klethi grumbles and prepares her baton against them until the room starts to fill with red gases that start to turn soldiers into sleeping corpses except Vaan's allies.
Klethi quickly rushes to Vito and carries him to her shoulder then turns to Masaf, "Let's go, Skargaz.". Masaf nods and carries Nasaf while aiming his gun towards the way, "We gotta go faster!". Suddenly the doors started to close surrounding them as Masaf yells in anger, "Fuck!". A tall evil-looking man with a fierce look, cheeks and chins filled textured with white beard in his mid-30s enters and claps himself with an evil smirk, "I don't need your introduction after hearing your frustration, Skargaz."
Masaf frowns and aims his gun at him, "I don't deal with infants, unlock the doors or else you will meet my bloody bullets!"Klethi eyes that young man before she identified him in a second, "Is that you, the son of Kriev?". The young man winks at her, "I am Aisen, who aims to take over Skaletta and rule the Bacein on my terms, by killing his son.".
Klethi immediately gets to secure Vito and aims her arrow against him, "Don't even move!" Masaf grumbles, "You got no idea on what you think you are doing, Aisen!", he pulls up the trigger and shoots him. Aisen's leg spurted out in blood, but he still eyes him like it's nothing, "upgrade your gun". Masaf gasps in shock before Klethi shoots Aisen with an arrow but he catches it and breaks it, "upgrade your eyes".
Masaf puts his son on the hays and walks against Aisen, "I don't know where Vaan is, but I can kill you myself", he takes off his coat and brings in the offensive stance before Klethi sweeps off Aisen and grabs his arm to twist it but couldn't inflict any pain. Aisen kicks her belly and gets up before getting to push her but she counters his arms and kicks his groin before Masaf grabs his neck to twist it. That's when Aisen's eyes widen and gets out of the struggle quickly and kicks Masaf's abdomen then uses Klethi's arrow to stab her leg as she grunts in pain a lot and gets weakened.
Masaf takes advantage and punches his face before Aisen's nose starts to bleed and feels a bit weak after the punch until he uses his head to hit Masaf's head.Masaf got his forehead bleeding before he falls unconscious while Aisen yells out, "Boo! See, Vaan?!", he brings out the sharp knife that is too dangerous for a wet tissue to get pierced easily without fail and grabs Vito's neck and puts it before his throat. Klethi sees that moment and screams, "No! You bastard! Don't do that!", she keeps banging the floor and tries to take out the arrow on her leg while she screams in pain.
Aisen sticks out tongue at her, "Die alone", he turns around, "Come out here, Vaan. Or else say goodbye to your worthless son!". Vaan rushes through the door and pants, "Slow down, don't hurt my son, Aisen!". Aisen laughs out and smirks, "What makes you think I shouldn't? Give me a good reason, Skaletta!".
Vaan eyes him then to Vito as he sighs slightly, "My son never wanted to engage in politics, he is an innocent lad. Please, killing him won't solve anything.". Aisen grumbles, "Won't solve anything? You know killing him will be same as killing the whole Skaletta? Because you are infertile since my father almost killed you, remember?", he grins.
Vaan looks down and kneels as he eyes him, "Take me instead... of my son".Klethi gasps and shakes her head strongly before she grumbles and tries to stand, "Boss! This isn't like you! What are you doing?!". Vaan turns to her before he aims his other gun at Klethi, "For the first time in your life, Klethi... Shut up". Klethi's eyes were filled with tears and shock as she saw him aiming the gun at her which she never expected while her jaws were shaking in pain, her eyes were filled with disappointment, "Boss, please..."Vaan's cold look as if he meant what he said and shoots her belly as her eyes widens in pain before her eyes closes .Aisen smiles, "Good job, Vaan. You killed your person who has been serving you for ages.", he throws Vito against him and snaps his finger as he whistles, "Gimme your gun, I wanna kill you using your fortune."
Vaan gives him his gun without any second thoughts before he places Vito's head on his lap, "My son... prepare yourself for what's coming... Always be yourself.. okay?", he closes his eyes as Aisen puts the gun against his back, "Skaletta. Turn to me, dammit, I'm not a coward to kill you from back."
Vaan turns to him and glares, "Like you kidnapped a harmless mafia heir with a huge gang?". Aisen grumbles before putting his finger to the trigger. The door smashes as wounded Wasa gasps watching what happens before his eyes, "Boss!"Aisen smirks before pulling the trigger that shoots Vaan's chest as he falls to the ground.
Wasa opens his jaw in shock and grieve after the incident until Aisen aims the gun at him and smirks evil until he pulls the trigger.

In The Memory of Vaan SkalettaNilandoria HospitalAfter 2 HoursVito suddenly opens his eyes, lying on a stretcher inside a patient room. His arm was injected with healing serum from the stand, looking around while frowning, "Seriously?.... Hello? Why am I in the hospital?". There is no response, thunder rumbles outside causing the rainstorm. He thinks for a moment, "I hope Father didn't see me like this... He will be worried."All of a sudden, the door opens and Wasa rushes in being paranoid, "Vito!", runs to him and pants. Vito jumps and gasps, "Mate, you got me killed mentally. What happened?"Wasa tries to compose himself while breathing out, "Vito... Skaletta.....". Vito frowns slightly, "Yeah that's me." Wasa shakes his head, "I mean your father.... He is...", he again pants before speaking as his voice shakes, "He is killed", kneels being broken as he used to care about Vaan Skaletta from his childhood.Vito was shocked by his words, eyeing him in disappointment before speakin

ContradictionsGun shoots before the body thudding noise hits up. Klethi was shocked looking at what happened behind him with her eyes widened. Aisen grins evil, "Thanks, Borgis".Behind him, "Welcome, Aisen". Aisen gasps and turns around to see it is Masaf Skargaz who kicks his groin and punches his nose, sweeping his leg off then grabs his neck, "Such a coward, stealing a lady's kiss!", repeatedly punching him brutally as he turns unconscious. A group of gangs start holding Masaf from hitting him, but Klethi kicks their guts, and both keep fighting until the members of Skaletta get the gut and start forming to fight against the Aisen's gang. After a lot of gunfights in the graveyard, the grounds were covered with drops of blood, Aisen gangs lost while some Skaletta henchmen died. Skaletta members shoot the gun towards the sky as a victory, "Hail Skaletta!"They don't realize that Aisen already fled during the fight until Masaf notices and yells in frustration, "No!

Welcome to the Hell The clap continues as the person from the dark slowly marches towards them. Aisen frowns, "Walk faster, bastard. This isn't a film you are walking like", he aims the gun at that side. That person finally comes out of the shadow it turns out to be Vaan Skaletta who is eyeing him while his forehead touches the gun aimed at him.His gang members run away through fear of him until they try to unlock the exit door in panic.Vaan stays silent, giving a long cold look at Aisen. Aisen is in utter shock as his mouth shakes and his jaws open like a crocodile being suffering, "I killed you....impossible?". Vaan puts his forehead closer to his gun, "Long story short... I faked my death, Aisen. And I know your weakness... Your neck is the only part of it". Aisen immediately pulls up the trigger but the gun is bullet-less as he eyes it.Vaan scoffs silently, "Pity on you, kid". Aisen yells before his gang members aim the guns at Vaan, "Kill Him!".The stream of shotgun r

Dear Diary 14 years ago At Noran High School Young Masaf age 18, dressed neatly, clean shaved with his short hair, laughs with his group of friends, "And we heard that lil boy just got his pant shitty because he forgot to wear his undies", they laugh with him while that boy who hears them talking about him gets embarrassed, "please do not talk bad about me, Masaf". Masaf paused before eyeing him, "Oh yeah, you wanna stop me talking about your embarrassment?", he stands and walks towards that boy, "What you gonna do about it, Peepee poo poo?".The boy looks down and eyes him as he were scared but trying to make it casual, "My name is Riktor Gorr, not that name. And I'm gonna be the teacher in the future and punish bullies like you". Masaf kicks his gut before throwing him against the wall, "In your ass, poo", his gang laughs hard watching him beating Riktor, "Do it, Masaf. He deserves it".Riktor tries to cover himself while Masaf kicks his arms and legs until a young slender tall

Masaf's Childhood Next Day In front of the Noran Boys Collage A young beautiful lady, a golden necklace coated with diamonds on her neck, facing towards the Noran Collage. A slight wind blows her lovely blonde hair, her bright red lips turn into a heavenly smile when she watches Vaan walking out of the exit. She walks to him happily before hugging him deeply, "My love. How was your class?". He hugs her back gently before curling her soft hair playfully, "It was fantastic. Calculus isn't an obstacle for me to skip it for you, my Queen", he lies with a wink to her so she won't be worried about what things happened to him.She giggles before nodding, "Same for biology, never got my attention", she winks back. Vaan nods with a broody look before softly caressing her engagement ring where his name was curved in, "So tell me, my Sonya... Will Vito beat me up again?", he chuckles.Sonya rolls her eyes before shrugging, "Big brother won't do that anymore, he respects you from now on. I t

Join MeAt Skargaz Manor,Masaf opens his eyes slowly as he is seated before his father who was drinking a glass of wine while eyeing him before he speaks, "Sometimes, I wonder. How can my son be so dumb that I had raised him? Now that you have been spared from the police by Vaan! Shame on you! Skaletta family should be the one living on the hand of my blessing, not the other way.I wish I could have aborted you right away... Or would have choked your mother to death!".Masaf's eyes widen and looks directly at him with his eyes of anger, "Don't talk about my mother like that! She was a saint among all of the ladies you had ever married".Lazaf's eyes turn in shock and comes to him, throwing a spurt of wine over his face, "Wow. Now my bastard yells at me. Such a huge change!".Masaf gasps to the sudden hit and starts to sob, "If she was alive, you could have never tortured me!".Lazaf chokes his throat and presses his throat harder, "If she was alive, you could never be like me.

Can I ask you something?".Vaan keeps walking to the entrance of the manor while acknowledging her speech, "Tell me".Klethi sighs and clears her throat, "That moment, why did you shoot me? I thought I died but I didn't. How?".Vaan turns to her, "Before I went to Kadiz Manor, I had a gut feeling that something bad would happen..."FlashbackBefore entering Kadiz Manor, Vaan handed a box of serums to his henchmen"Mix this serum to every member, make sure everyone drinks. It's an SV19 which will be an antidote against the gunshots in their limbs, I have also given this antidote to superiors Klehi and other members, so don't worry about them. I just need a natural reaction from them towards my faked death so that my plan will go smooth if Aisen shoots my chest". He revealed a bulletproof jacket with real blood bags attached to himself

Doctor Rio is way more dangerous than a serial killer for Boss 5th! He works for other rival clans! Get these words into your fucking brain, you pea-ass leader! Do it or else I will get your head into my rubbish bin!". Supreme henchman is the strongest man of Skaletta who now acts as a fluffy cat in front of her dominance before he nods and runs to command what she commanded him.Klethi huffs before turning to Jean with her eyes on fire, "Jean, what happened? Want me to put you in a diaper?". Jean stammers and shakes his head, "Advisor, I was waiting for your command".She pushes him against the wall and puts the knife a

We will capture it and donate it to a women's shelter institution. His finances will be weak, and so will his family who captures kids for slavery. No mercy".Vaan nods, "Means lower armies, so also means, the last thing he will do is escape this country once again using his finances".Masaf belches before reloading his shotgun, "Then kill his future president so the government won't allow him to leave the country until new one be there".Mifa nods to his word, "Correct... So, Masaf, your task is to kill Kadiz. I will make the plan, Klethi shall go for killing Garry Loaf.

About millions of dahfs".Vaan nods gently, "That means catching her will be quite much easier but we won't catch her for money to ourselves but donate it to the Erdis states where people are dying of hunger".Klethi smiles, "You should have become a president instead, boss".Vaan looks at his leader ring on his finger, "I am barely a leader here. Let alone being the president in the first place", he turns to Jean, "Call Kadiz for another meeting, this time for catching the Mifa Skargaz as soon as possible".Jean salutes, "Of course, boss", he walks upstairs after the forensic scientist comes out of laboratory to reveal the betrayal.Klethi asks him, "Who is the imp

But I died too horribly, couldn't say goodbye to my son-", suddenly she slaps his cheek which startles him. Mifa frowns, "How stupid you are. You think heaven is dark like this?".Masaf pauses while covering his cheek, getting out of her lap and gasps, "Sister? You are alive?".She looks at him, "Isn't it obvious, Masaf?".He looks at himself, "Vaan was right. I didn't believe him...

May God rest their souls".Klethi nods, "Boss Fifth is right, there must be an imposter. As Skargaz Sixth stated last week there were quite several traitors in their manor".Vaan nods, "I still think there is someone behind it".Kareem leans back on his sofa and exhales, "There is another dangerous news I heard".Klethi becomes curious before nodding, "Please, Kadiz Second".Kareem eyes Vaan before wiping his sweat, "Mifa Skargaz is alive".Klethi gasps out silently with her eyes wide, "You mean the Devil of Skargaz?

The agent you sent to him secretly is spying on him and sending support passively, you need to take a rest, boss".Vaan coughs weakly before she takes him to the carriage while other members take care of his surroundings.Vaan looks at her, "Klethi... we have to find Masaf's lawyer again or at least break him out of jail as soon as possible".Klethi sighs, "Boss, the government is strictly against him from taking support.
