《Sarafina De Luca》Chapter 22
Advertisement
Gunshots and screams were heard asMadelina made her way towards me her katana swinging around as I dodged every time she attacks stepping backwards.
I froze when her katana made it's way to my neck I lift my head slightly up to stop it from touching me. She smirked. She has no idea who she is messing with.
Without her noticing I took out the dagger which was located in the right side of my thigh. I hold the dagger tighter on my hand.
I spin around to get away from the katana as her hold on the katana loosened I took my chance and placed the dagger in her neck like she did a minute ago and brought her down.
She gritted her teeth together as I pushed the dagger more deeper into her neck "Madelina you just messed with the wrong person" I whispered dangerously low.
"And you chose the wrong side" She whispered back and then her elbow made it's way to the back of my neck the dagger was thrown out of my hand.
My body fell back as Madelina throwed punch by punch. Finally getting my senses back I brought my knee to her stomach as she gasped for air I took my chance and got up breathing heavily.
Madelina was still in the ground gasping for air. I felt blood trickling down my right eyebrow. I heard Madelina chuckle with no humor "Your going to die either way Black Rose" She breathed out.
She got up. Now both of us were standing opposite each other with nothing but our hands held up in a fighting stance.
She was about to punch me but I dodged it and punched her in the face I heard a satisfied crack as she screamed in pain without wasting a second I did a roundhouse kick. She fell to the ground.
Using her hands for support I didn't give her a chance and went kneeing her in the head. I stumbled back as her body lied unconscious on the cement floor.
My eyes moved around the warehouse where body's lied unconscious my brothers stood there breathing slightly heavily.
This is just the beginning.
Black Rose.
Who is she? And why the hell is she helping us? Questions ran through my mind. She stood there with no fear for her life even after my threat but what surprised the most at that moment was when Gavino spoke.
I knew he was hiding something from the first time Black Rose made a move there is something his hiding and I can tell that the boys knew that too.
What angered me the most out of all is when Vito called and told me Sarafina wasn't home. I was worried more then angry.
Even if the world is ending my first priority is to keep my baby sister safe no matter the problem.
I saw Black Rose fight the Russian assassin' her fighting posture and everything is professional. But who the hell is she? Being the capo of the Italian mafia isn't easy.
You never know when your attacked and that's why we always keep back up.
Back up that's making it's way here. This isn't the only warehouse we have here. We have around four warehouses here and millions out the world.
And now that The Russians have an idea on where it is located we will have to move it to a more secure place for the members.
Currently I am glaring at Black Rose who's face is hidden under that hood of hers. "Did you know this would happen?" I asked my voice cold and no hint of emotion.

I heard her sigh.
"You still don't trust me" Her voice was merely a whisper but somehow I heard it clearly.
I looked around body's lied unconscious or dead. Most of them are from the Russian Mafia. A vehicle engine was heard knowing it's just the back up.
Members scattered everywhere cleaning the place making it seem like nothing happened here. I walked to my office. Black Rose was long gone. She just disappeared but left us something. The boys were trailing behind me.
I sat at the chair behind my desk as the boys sat at the couch except Leonard who was leaning against the wall.
"We know his not going to stop" Lorenzo says referring to one and only Dimitri Petrov.
"His basically asking for war" Gavino muttered.
I nodded my head leaning back in my seat
"He wants war." I say turning to look at the boys who were waiting for me to continue.
"We give it to him"
It's time we finally end what started centuries ago.
I got out as soon as they removed there eyes from me. I disappeared in the shadows and out. I headed to the place I never knew I would go to.
The hideout.
I reached there in a minute and took the same route I took each time I came here. I expected no one to be there when I saw Joshua and Brianna there I was surprised. I might have expected Joshua but not Brianna.
Joshua moved his eyes from the computer to the elevator where I'm currently standing on. I gave him a nod which he returned with a kind smile. I moved my eyes from Joshua to Brianna who held a lot of emotions.
Guilt. Sadness. Anger.
But this time not towards me but her.
I gave her nod I placed my bow down. "Where were you? You called me but as soon as I answered the phone cut. I even tried to locate you but I couldn't" Joshua ranted relief showing in his eyes.
"I'm fine" I answered I removed my hood and my lenses "Sar, Can we please talk?" Brianna asked hopefully. I sucked my breath in and nodded.
We walked to the other side of the bunker. Joshua busied himself with whatever tech shit he does.
"I'm so sorry Sara, You know I didn't mean any of those things. I-I was just angry not on you but--" she looked down and sighed and when she looked up tears had formed in her eyes.
"I just miss him so much" She breathed out tears spilling from her eyes. My eyes turned soft and I went straight for a hug.
She sobbed quietly "Are we ever going to find him?" She asked all of a sudden. I closed my eyes and nodded "Of course we are."
"But Sar what i-if his dead?" Her voice cracked.
I shake my head to get rid of the thoughts "He's not. His strong we both know that" I say firmly she didn't reply.
I pulled back and looked at her straight in the eye "He is not dead, Okay?" I asked my voice strong and firm.
She nodded her head and wiped her eyes "His not dead" She muttered to her self.
"Are we cool?" Brianna says with hopeful eyes I smiled and nodded my head her eyes lit up and relief flooded through her.
She hugged me and I hug her back. "Group hug" I heard Joshua yell I chuckled at his antics and that's when I realized how lucky I am to have them.

But like they say happiness doesn't last forever.
Months passed till the incident that took place in the warehouse and to be honest nothing changed. I've not heard from Dimitri which is bad.
My brothers got busier they barely come home but I somehow got closer to all of them as time passes.
School is School. It's a waste of time if you ask me but one thing that's always on my mind is him.
Xavier.
I don't know much about him but somehow he makes his way to my mind every second. He doesn't talk much mostly just glares at me or grunts in response which is kinda frustrating.
"--So, that's what happened" Brianna said finishing her story plopping a grape in her mouth. Leo watched her in awe.
"That was awesome" He exclaimed.
Brianna smiled at him and in the past few months all of us got closer at this point we are inseparable I had a small smile on my own as Leo grinned widely and we haven't told Leo how we spend our nights. Yet.
Suddenly, My phone rang. I picked it up and placed it against my ear. "Sarafina, where are you?" I heard Gavino's voice.
"Where would I be? I'm at school of course" I replied back in a obvious tone. He sighed in relief and confusion flooded through me. A gut feeling told me that something is wrong.
"Gavino, What's wrong? Is everything okay?" I asked worriedly it was silent for a few seconds "Everything is fine" He replied I don't believe him. By now I got Brianna and Joshua's attention.
"Okay, I have to go class is starting soon." I lied
"Yeah I'll see you at home. Bye" He cut the call
I put my phone away.
"There's something wrong" I say and with that they put on their serious face Leo gave us a confused and worried look.
"W-what's wrong?" Leo stuttered I turned to him and pursed my lips my eyes turned to look at Brianna and Joshua they had the 'look' on their faces. The look that says
'Tell him it's time'
I rolled my eyes and turned to Leo who looked confused as ever.
"Let's go"
_._._._
Just like that we found our way to the hideout. I stepped out of the elevator Bri and Joshua trailing behind and not to forget Leo who's staring at the place with wide and shocked eyes.
His eyes moved around the place until it landed on the bow and the Black Rose outfit. He froze.
"Y-your her" He breathed out
I nodded my head looking at his reaction his eyes turned to me and this is why I hate telling people
His eyes showed fear.
I licked my lips
"Leo, I'm not going to hurt you" I say softly as I can. His eyes seem to relax a bit
"Are you okay?" I asked my eyes examining his face. It still held some fear he nodded his head I smiled at him before I took my outfit and quickly changed.
I walked up to Joshua who is typing something on the computer. His eyebrows raised "What's wrong?" I asked he turned to me
"I can't get his location" He says at this point I was confused and worried.
What if something happens to them? "Try again" He nodded his head and typed something.
I looked around and saw Brianna and Leo nowhere in sight. "Where's Leo?" I asked
"Brianna is showing him around and to talk" I nodded my head in understanding.
After hours of trying to find their location I heard a beeping sound coming from the computer.
"Got it"
I made my way to my bike.
The sun was setting and heavy wind blew but for me it was nothing but relaxing.
I made my way there
In the middle of nowhere.
I parked my bike in a hidden spot and looked around. There was nothing but big containers. Suddenly, I heard voices coming from a distant.
I made my way there as soon as I could. I climbed one of the containers and when I finally did reach where the noises came from I kneeled down.
What I saw was surprising.
Antonio and Gavino stood there with suits and a cold look in their eyes. I squinted my eyes and saw a figure in the corner and when I finally got a glance to the figure's face I soon realized it was Leonard.
What the fuck is going on?
But the most shocking thing is the person who stood opposite of them.
Dimitri Petrov stood their with his second command Adrian with the same look as my brothers.
They were talking but I couldn't hear shit.
Fuck.
"It's good to see you again" He says with his Russian accent we gave him a cold glare in return he had a little smirk but that dark look that show's in his eyes is still there.
"Let's get straight to the point" Antonio says coldly stepping forward I followed his actions and got ready to attack.
"You want to get to the point," He says glaring at us "Then let's do what he says gentleman we get straight to it" He removed his gun the same time we did.
Before he could shoot the gun was out of his hand and to the ground he hissed in pain. I turned to the figure that was making it's way to us.
What. The. Fuck.
Should I be surprised? No.
Cause she does it every single fucking time.
But I know there no point on being angry. It's my baby sister after all but still.
This is going to be a long ass night.
I made my way their my gun pointed at Dimitri. His jaw was clenched "You." He spat "Me." I say smirking.
"I will kill you" He threatened before he could do anything a gunshot sound rang through the place. Adrian's now dead body laid in the ground.
I raised my eyebrows.
A sniper.
I followed to where the bullet came from. Which wasn't far I saw a person on top of the tower with a sniper rifle. He looked up and Lorenzo sent a thumbs up.
His a sniper. How didn't I know that?
But then afterwards more gunshots rang through the place but not from our side.
I quickly took cover so did they.
I shot every Russian in sight and this went on for a while until it was silent. I stayed where I was for a moment.
My brothers doing the same. Sweat was running down my face but nothing was heard.
I slowly got out from the place I made my way to the middle looking everywhere. My eyes moved to look around.
We are missing something.
Dimitri. Where the hell did he go?
My eyes widened as I realized that all of this was a distraction. My eyes moved around frantically until it landed on the figure in the shadows but before any of us could do anything a gunshot was heard.
I gasped as pain surged through me. I stumble back holding my abdomen. Shouts were heard but all of them came out blurry.
I squeezed my eyes in pain. My back met the ground as my vision slowly faded away "Stay with us" I heard someone say but the voice came out muffled "Come on, Il mio amore stay with us"
The last thing I felt was a warm arm around me
And my hood falling of my head.

In Another World with Doraemon's 4D Pocket
Cary found himself awoken in a foreign land with what he thought was a nondescript white pouch. Reaching into the white pouch, he was able to pull out an assortment of gadgets that he recognized to be from his favorite childhood show, Doraemon. With the thousands of mischievous, powerful gadgets inside the 4D pocket, Cary will take on this new world by storm! Something ridiculous I will write purely for fun alongside my main story Giantslayer As a disclaimer, I may nerf some of the most broken gadgets or even not use them at all. Doraemon was insane for a children manga (e.g. Doraemon canonically has a nuclear bomb inside his 4D pocket), some of the gadgets have the potential to end this story in one chapter. The most important factor is fun so anything that completely breaks the story might not be mentioned at all (or we will pretend they do not exist in the 4D pocket). We may find uses for those broken gadgets in the future, though. I am not particularly good at writing comedy. There will of course be funny moments (at least I hope they are funny) but everyone in this story will actually behave in a realistic(?) and serious manner. I want the serious world to contrast with some of the wacky gadgets that are available.

Thief of Time
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Book 1: The Legend of Tot Synopsis: Claud Primus, a self-declared master thief, has a simple goal. To live forever. It's a rather easy task, for miraculous objects called lifestones are able to extend one's lifespan. These lifestones are best found in the treasuries of nobles, lovely resorts that Claud pays a visit to every so often. Unfortunately, one of those nightly visits go awry, and Claud is forced to escape with just a single lifestone and a box in hand. Normally, that's when things die down. The guards yawn, the gates close, and the night continues. But this time, the night isn't that forgiving. A dozen schemes result in the murder of someone important, and with a convenient scapegoat — Claud — at hand, it doesn't take long for him to be framed as a heinous criminal, wanted for the indirect murder of someone high up...and it just gets worse from there. Book 2: The Moon Lords' Rise Synopsis: As ordered chaos sweeps across Licencia, Claud leaves for Julan Barony, intent on making some profits there. Accompanied by the erstwhile heiress of Julan, a fellow member of the Moon Lords, the two plot against the barony's wealth...as well as a promise to bring about its downfall. Meanwhile, back home, the Moon Lords have busied themselves with digesting their gains. Eyes, however, are beginning to turn to this proverbial fish in a small pond. The fishermen are coming. When they cast their hook, what will Dia and the others do? Book 3: Murders under the Moons Synopsis: In the sleepy town of Nachtville, where Claud and Lily are forced to stop at, a set of nasty murders occurs. Victims scream out in fright, before a spear falls from the sky to end their suffering. Cowed and cautious, the master thief and his partner slink in the shadows, their objective that of home... A new task, however, has fallen on Dia. With a trusty helper at her side, she has to set off towards Nachtville itself, to solve the mystery Claud had abandoned. Faced with an enemy whose sole skillset is geared towards killing, how will they succeed? And what dark secrets will they find? Book 4: In the Dark of the Moons Synopsis: The year has ended. The four months of the full moons will soon be followed by two months of the new moons. Duke Istrel's ascension is around the corner. Amidst this political upheaval, Count Nightfall, Licencia's strongest defender, has been called away. The Moon Lords' largest task yet — to protect Licencia in the absence of its ruler — has begun. And yet, trouble is unrelenting. A distinguished personage, one that Claud fears, has been found dead in the county, his brains dug out and his body disemboweled. The inquisitors of the White Church have been dispatched to investigate and apprehend the murderer...as well as the person behind this puppet. Tormented by a call to fight, Claud directs his eyes out of the city, looking for the puppetmaster. Skulking in the shadows, the master thief will soon confront his greatest foe yet. A foe just like him. Book 5: Moonlit Tides and Darkened Seas Synopsis: A new era has begun. For the privileged, the sands of time dribble away for every passing moment, counting down to the arrival of a entity of mythical proportions. The night now harbours shadows and fog, and operatives of the Moons and the Dark clash in shadow. Claud, as usual, is investigating a spate of nasty disappearances in the city, but little does he know what these disappearances truly mean. And yet, a tide is coming. When it finally breaks, what will he do? Book 6: Secrets in Shadow Synopsis: The person behind a strike that would enter the annals of history flees his home, bringing with him the person closest to his heart into a new land and into a new world. Having left Istrel for the first time in his life, the two of them attempt to settle down in foreign lands, only to be caught in the middle of hostilities between two mighty powers grappling for dominion. Yet, none of that has anything to do with him. Following his desires, Claud eventually makes his way to the fabled Celestia Ruins, a fragment of another world. Bearing witness to truths he cannot yet comprehend, he returns from his exploration, a small break away from the machinations of destiny. One thing, however, is for certain. Destiny will not wait for him. Book 7: Reddest Rage Synopsis: Destiny churns on, heedless of mortal machinations, and Claud watches as the battlegrounds between the Moons and the Dark are drawn up. With the forces of the great Dark occupying Lostfon, Claud comes to a startling realisation — that he may have very well be a murderer of heinous proportions. Grappling with that realisation, he struggles to prepare for his Second Tutorial... Back in Istrel, Dia finds herself confronted with a perennial truth. Even in a time of writhing destiny, the machinations between nobles never cease to end — and unfortunately for her, the group once known as the Moon Lords are forced into dealing with a petty squabble between two counts. What they didn't account for, however, was the startling discovery they would soon make... And the shadow of the Red God's Holy Son behind it all. Book 8: Darkness Descends Synopsis: Nightmares haunt the horizon as Claud sinks and awakens from a seeming dream. What was once illusory begins to play out before him, in a way he cannot imagine. Dia, forced to wield arms, begins and ends a battle that opens her eyes to the vast dangers that lurk in this sundered world. Under the banner of humanity and divinity, she beholds the silent, forgotten protectors of Orb...but there is no forgetting the battle between the divinities. The Dark descends, the Moons writhe, and the horns of war blow once more. But this is not their battle. Not yet. Book 9: Moons Muster Synopsis: As more and more events fall into place, Claud finds himself desperate. Not for himself, but for the person who has turned into his world. Armed with the knowledge of a certain future, he approaches the only person that could possibly help him in his time of need, trading information for a promise of help. With that as solace, he returns to the grim task of understanding and seeking, revisiting an ancient, shattered fragment of another world...unleashing changes that he never knew was possible. Back in Istrel, Dia and the others must now navigate around a familiar spirit, who seeks to investigate the death of his master's Bearer. With them as prime suspects, the Seekers of Life must move carefully...but the Coloured Gods are not the only divinities eyeing them closely. The Moons, bristling from repeated defeats, are looking for new recruits, and the Seekers of Life are prime cannon fodder. Above all, destiny marches on, the unfeeling clock a warning to all. The Trial of Aeons will soon arrive. Book 10: Destiny Divine Synopsis: ??? Release frequency: one every few days or something, I guess. (This work is also being serialised on Webnovel under the name Revile as a trial run)

Aeternalis
One born of nothingness. A world born of everything. To return all to nothing. Or surrender to everything. A man born into an infinite world, trying to find his path to the top. Trials and tribulations come from friends and foes alike until all bow before him. ------------------------------------- Author here! This is my 3rd story on RoyalRoad, the other two having long since been dropped years ago. They were a mess of ideas and had no real substanence to them, leading me to begin hating writing them and eventually just stop writing altogether for about a year and a half. Finally, after reading hundreds of thousands of pages of novels, from low fantasy to sci-fi litrpg's to thousands of pages long xianxias, I finally feel ready to write a real story that isn't a cesspool of ideas blended together. I plan to see this out to the end, as I already have the first few major arcs planned out unlike my other stories where I thought of ideas as I wrote. This story takes place in a world with a litrpg system, as per tags. This isn't a VRMMO or Reincarnation story. The main character exists in and is from said world. There are some differences from other litrpg's which will be explained in author notes in the few few chapters. I plan to publich 6-7 chapters a week, each 2-3k words long. If i fail to do so I will create a back-log I have to eventually make up but as of writing this it's the summer for me so I'll have plenty of time to write. Enjoy, and welcome to the world of Aeternalis.
