The Past
I had never been a wimp. So when I got challenged for my position in the gang I was furious yet intrigued. He tried to throw an upper cut to my jaw but I was quick enough to dodge, grab his hand and throw him across the room makeing his head smash against the wall. "Pathetic." I spat whilst turning around and walking out the enclosed space. I think I have claustrophobia or something like that. Before I even made it out the door a shot rang through the air. I felt a searing pain shoot through my lower abdomen. Looking down I saw my shirt covered in blood and my vision becoming blurry. 'He shot me, that sick basterd shot me!' That was the last think I thought before I fell to the ground. One year later.
I had finished packing my bags and was ready to leave. The mafia was after me. I had borrowed some money to help my dad in hospital and he ended up dying of heart failure anyway. now they have found out and were demanding the money back, the money which I didnt have. I knew I had to go or they would kill me and my mother. I pulled out our passports and tickets and left for New York. After a seven hour flight we had finally arrived and found a house for the two of us.
It had only been a month here and I had got kicked out of two schools for causing a fight and I knew that many more were to come. But did I care, No. I could get kicked out a hundred schools and still not care. Mother said I should lay low and not get into fights. She didn't know about me and the mafia, she only agreed to move because her new job is in New York. I wasn't worried about the mafia because they were on the other side of the world in Italy and I was careful to leave no traces behind me nor my mother. We had disappeared and weren't going to get found. I decided to stay low and not get into fights for my mother. As hard as it was I would act like your regular teenage boy. I was most likely going to be in a new school in a month and thats when I would act normally. But for now the bully's in my currant school better be able to fight because I was iching for one.
