Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Mrs. G?" Luciano thought to himself, he shrugged it off and he shook her hand, "Luciano," he said, "so. . how long have you been coming to this Church?"

Luciano raised his eyebrow at the 'Mrs. G' again, but he was just going to leave it be. He probably wasn't going to see this old woman again anyway, he thought. Luciano gently shrugged and he said, "Not a problem. I don't mind listening. My grandfather always told me that everyone always needs an ear they could talk into. . . or something of the sort." just then the Priest walked into the room, wearing his gardening robe, and he had his gardening tools with him. Luciano looked down at Catherine for a second, "Please excuse me- it was nice talking to you." he shook her hand and then went to talk to the Preist.

"Luciano! How are you, my young man?" said Father Morretti, Luciano shook his hand then he said "I've been just fine, I suppose. Listen, Father,. . . I need to talk to you." the Preist patted Luciano on the shoulder, "I'm always here for you, you know. Let's go out to the Garden- I had just finished planting some new rose bushes! And before you ask, yes, the Church finally got enough money to build a big Green House for us!" Luciano walked out to the garden with Father Morretti, though he would have preferred his office.

Skotti burnt the picture of his father and dropped it on the body. He left the appartment and walked in the snow, thinking about what his father had said about his mother. He saw luciano's track in the snow and followed.

Luciano and Father Morretti were inside of the Green house. He noticed that it was a lot warmer than the church. Luciano looked over at him, and he said, "Father, are you cutting back on heating, too?" Father Morretti laughed, he said to Luciano, "No! Why?" Luciano looked down at his feet and he said, "So, it's always this freezing?. . Father, why don't you have someone come in and fix the furnace? I know a guy-"
"-It's perfectly fine, Luciano. You don't have to."
"Father, have you seen some of the statues lately? They're crumbling. And how about the fountain out in the front."
"What about the fountain?"
"Father, the stone fish are missing!"
Father Morretti laughed, he patted Luciano on the back and he said, "I appreciate your concern, Luciano, but I will fix everything when the Spring time comes." Luciano respectfully nodded. What felt to have been forever, there was a silence that befell them. Luciano broke that silence, though, he said, "Father. . . it's been a month since my last confession." Father Morretti laughed a bit, and he nodded, "Confessing because you're guilty about something, my son?"
"Yes. . Father, you have always known me to surrender to guilt. . ."
"That's very true. You've always been honest- but I know you're not perfect. Is this to do with your occupation? Because it always seems to be about that."
Luciano nodded, "My occupation is. . . well, you already know. Sometimes I wonder if I can keep doing it."
"Well, Luciano,. . . God said 'Thou shalt not kill'. . but he said, basically, defend only when necessary. D'you defend when necessary?"
Luciano was now silent. He looked straight ahead, clenched his jaw, and he said softly, ". . Not always. And that's a very big problem for me."

It was warm in Gambino as Pen's group was treated to lunch. It was the least she good do since it might end up as a wild goose chase. The idea that the bosses went rogue might be just too far fetched; yet if they were going to find them thats the way it had to be treated.

The bullet was definitely Luc's and hopefully whatever Waffle found something as well. Hopefully something that would lead them to the next location.

Skotti did what his reflexes told him too and turned the pue over, lets hope this is made from a nice hard wood he thought.
Catherine however took a bullet to the shoulder and one grazed neck before falling under the pue to guard her more vital organs.

Pen waved Waffle's group down and ordered more burgers for the rest of the team. Once everyone was settled in they exchanged information.

"Well Luc killed the half vamp. The bullet we found proved it." She seemed a little down about that fact. Yet more proof they were on a killing spree.

"What did you find?"
