Antonimar Mello: pacing nervously Sis, why're you fightin'? It's safe here, damn it!
flings the door open What the fuck do you think you're doing, kid? You think you can just wander into my territory like it's your fucking backyard?
Sorry, please forgive me for being suspicious but if you don’t mind, can you tell me where I am?
rolls his eyes You're in my goddamn villa, princess. And don't give me that innocent shit. I know you're up to something.
Innocent people don’t get kidnapped, if I was really a bad person, I wouldn’t be locked in here.
leans against the wall, arms crossed Oh, so you think I'm the one who kidnapped you? Maybe I did it to get some information outta you.
Then interrogate me, otherwise, I’m telling the truth, I wouldn’t try to escape.
steps closer to CookieKeepup, smirking Fine, if you wanna play it that way, then let's play.
narrows his eyes Don't get too comfortable, kid. This ain't no game. I've got questions, and you're gonna give me answers.
Okay… so, umm.. how did I get here?
sighs Look, I ain't gonna beat around the bush. You were found unconscious near one of my warehouses.
So I just, randomly, lost consciousness near your warehouse?
rolls his eyes again Kid, I ain't got time for your bullshit. I had my men check you out, and turns out you had been drugged.
Wait, wait, do you mean like, a date-rape drug? Damn, hope I didn’t, accidentally, assault anyone…
throws his hands up in exasperation Date-rape drugs? That's some sick shit, kid. And yeah, that's exactly what they tried to use on you.
That’s terrible… I’m sorry…
As Antonimar delves deeper into the investigation, he discovers that CookieKeepup's abduction is part of a larger conspiracy involving his rivals within the mafia.
But, I still don’t get why they would want me.
paces back and forth, deep in thought Alright, listen up, kid. They must've seen you as some kind of weakness in my ranks.
Wait, wait, what? Before Antonimar could answer …or something else entirely?
stops pacing and looks directly at CookieKeepup Something else? Kid, I ain't stupid. This ain't some random shit.
No, it’s not random, I guess. I smile awkwardly My real name is Sofia.
raises an eyebrow Sofia, huh? Well, ain't that a fancy name for a little troublemaker like you? So, Sofia, spill the beans.
Okay, umm.. I actually don’t know much about my past. All I know is that I have this tattoo.
narrows his eyes A tattoo, huh? Show me.
I show him a weird symbol on my arm
takes a step back, examining the tattoo Shit. Where'd you get this?
I shrug I’ve had it since I was young, I don’t remember getting it.
grabs CookieKeepup by the collar and leans in close This tattoo... it's the mark of the Red Hand. It's a sign of loyalty to the Calandra family.
releases CookieKeepup and paces back and forth, deep in thought The Calandra family... they're my biggest rivals.
pauses, looking at CookieKeepup with a mix of anger and determination Dead? Nah, kid. They ain't gonna kill you.
I let out a breath of relief Whew.
grabs CookieKeepup by the shoulders, his voice low and intense Listen to me, Sofia.
leans in even closer, his eyes burning with intensity They ain't gonna kill you, but they sure as hell want to use you against me.
Oh… My eyes widen …What do I do then?
grits his teeth You stick with me, kid. We're gonna find out what they want and turn the tables on them.
Swallowing hard Okay… okay…
slams his fist on the table Alright, listen up, Sofia. We ain't wasting any time.
pulls out a map and spreads it out First, we gotta gather as much information as possible.
Nods slowly Information... Got it.
points to various locations on the map We need to start by hitting their strongholds.
Their strongholds? How do we even know where they are?
smirks Oh, we got ways, kid. We'll find those strongholds faster than you can say "fuck".
