As everybody MAY or may not be familiar with...I do these stories in 5 minutes..This one will be a little shorter than usual, just so it can explain the back story so chapter 2 can pick right up and move on with things..I want to make this about 15 chapters, and if anybody cares enough to read these I would greatly appreciate some feedback when I update it..
Thank you, so here goes...
---------

Head of the family: Chapter 1 - Made in Manhattan
Johnny Amuso, was your average head of the house hold. He had a steady job that required very little work yet he still managed to afford the 2 story mansion in the outskirts of New York city, where his family resided. His wife Roxanne, was a stay at home mother by choice. Johnny, had steady cash coming in from the very start of their marriage, and he refused to let his wife, the center of his universe be subjected to working a dead end job when he's "bringing home the bacon" for the both of them.
Together, Johnny and Roxanne had one 17 year old son who seemed to want to follow in his fathers foot steps more and more every day. After all, what's more exciting than running a family operated internet based business anyways?
The truth to the matter was, even if the business was internet based Johnny was never home for his family. You see, Johnny was a different kind of man.
Johnny had 2 family's, and what was even weirder about it was both families knew about each other. Now I know what you're saying so let me remind you that this is New York and not Texas.
I guess it's time I let you in on the big secret... Johnny Amuso, is known by another name..And no he's not an illegal immigrant, or a CIA agent with another life...This other name that Johnny goes by is "The Boss" and not as the head of the internet based family operated company that allegedly his main source of income was..It was as the godfather to his mafia family, who spent their days collecting money and hiding it from the police.
Now, things are starting to make sense aren't they?
Johnny Amuso, was the kind of man who hunted you down for stiffing him 25 dollars on his weekly collections..God forbid the man who didn't pay at all.
In the streets, there are just a few things you need to remember..
When the rent is due..pay it
When the phone rings..answer it
And whatever you do...Don't cross Johnny Amuso |

Head of the family: Chapter 2 - The other family
Well, I think before we can progress with the story of Johnny Amuso, we're going to have to introduce the family if you will. Before we continue..I will need to explain the levels of people, and what they do...
You have The Capofamiglia..or "The Boss" this is the guy who calls the shots and nobody can say a thing about it. This we already know is Johnny or "John" Amuso.. In his days before running the family, he was a soldier..And I don't mean he learned how to shoot a gun and went to Iraq, because when you're in the Mafia learning how to shoot a gun comes from on the job training sota speak. But we'll dwell into John's life a little later..Right now I want to introduce those closest to him.
John's consigliere (main adviser), was a man by the name of Frank "buddy" marangello. Those around the warehouse they tended to hang out at, called him buddy..Some say, this was because he was friendly with everybody..But the real reason, was because when he was 19 he took a guys eye out with the sharp end of a nutty butty iced cream cone. Frank, will mostly be in our little story, to give advise and collect a pay check..
Which now leads us to the soldiers...These are the men, who carry out whackings (murders) and think nothing about it. They are also the earners of the family, and make sure everybody else (mainly the boss) collect a fat envelope of money at the end of the week. After all, why give the boss a light envelope? Who doesn't enjoy the use of their legs?
The top earner of the family is a young 27 year old up and comer by the name of Danny Evola. He mostly gains his cash flow from a chain of bars he owns in the new york area..A few of them are exclusive to only the elite in the city..Or when a fine piece of ass decides to hike her skirt high enough for the bouncer to see the money shot. Either way, if you were denied at the door of one of his clubs please..Don't be sad - you are one of many who will just have to find a good time at another bar up the street. (Don't worry, there are plenty of them!)
Second in line was one of the older batch of soldiers. He goes by the name Albert "Sal" Licavoli..Sal is 57 years old and still draws one hell of a paycheck for the boss to be happy about..He was here when John Amuso was only a boy, and yet he's yet to progress up the ladder of success..You might be asking yourself "If he's been there so long how comes he's still just a soldier" well the answer is simple...When you have been in as much trouble with the law as "Sal" it's hard to wonder if he's been flipped by the FBI or not..
Third in line, is Vito Locasio..Sadly he lost 3 fingers on his left hand from back in his early days of becoming an earner..He was short one week and John wanted to show him, this family dispute will end in blood shed. It did, and he's never been short since.
And last but certainly not least is Bennie Labruzzo...Bennie was the resident chef of the little group...He was also an earner, but John values his home made ravioli so much that he took him off the line just so he can eat well every day.
You would think, after all the fantastic meals that Bennie has prepared over the years John might gain a little weight..However, he's still as fit as he was when he was in high school. There was no mistaken how Italian John really was..He simply tried to hide it to remain low ki.
This of course did nothing.
John was a favorite on the internet, on random crime forums where people speak about buying something from his side business when they knew blood money purchased the item in the first place..That's the say the item was even purchased at all.
It's amazing, how quickly you can move things online these days...
Still, life was good for the family...Money was coming in, the food was magnificent, and most importantly everybody had their health.
Yep, I think this is going to be a good year. |

Head of the family: Chapter 3 - The other side
Johnny awoke in the middle of the night, from a dead sleep feeling as if all the breath had been wiped from his chest. Even though he knew the nightmare was over, he still felt as if all of his pain was just starting to surface. Restrictions on his body made him feel as if he were strapped to his bed as his heart was being ripped open from his chest..Beating in the hands of the one responsible.
There has to be a reason, for such pain.
- Wake up Johnny -
Johnny Amuso opened his eyes, to realize he'd been dreaming again..As he throws the blanket off of himself, he looks down past his crucifix to spot it.
The scar was looking back at him...Every inch of pinched skin, and rough texture pressed together reminded him of the day it happened. Like it were only yesterday, yet he knew in his mind that the years had gone by far too fast to dwell on the injury anymore.
Today was a big day for Johnny..It was pay day, his sons football game and most importantly, he had an important meeting with his own boss.
As Johnny took to a stand, he walked to his closet to grab a shirt to put on when suddenly a light knock is heard at the door. There he was, the spitting image of his dad JJ (John Jr.) stood before his father in a suit, and shined shoes just like his old man.
"What do you think?"
"I think it looks wonderful JJ..Where'd you get the shoes?"
"They was in that shop on 1st street..Guy didn't even charge me"
"One day I'll let you know why that is"
"Comin to my football game today?"
John let a smile creep on to his face as he walks over to his son to put his arm around him.
"I wouldn't miss it"
"I miss you so much dad"
"You miss me? You see me every day kid.."
"I just..I can't bear to lose you"
"Hey...HEY..You're not losin me JJ..You got me?"
"I got something for you to listen to.."
JJ walks over to the cd player on his fathers dresser and puts a disc inside of it. Moments later Italian opera begins to play over the speakers, surrounding the entire room with such beauty that even for a brief moment Johnny felt like the pain in his chest had gone away..Johnny, drifting away with the music closes his eyes to drink in the moment.
"You still with me dad?"
"What? Oh, yeah....Yeah I'll be at the game JJ..Count on it"
JJ with a smile, exits the room leaving his father to survey his bedroom. Clearly his wife had cleaned a slight bit, for it was not nearly as messy as it had been when he left it. Still, Johnny opens the top drawer to look for a shirt when it happened.
The pain struck him in the chest so hard that it took the breath from out of his chest. Johnny, in complete agony tugs at the imaginary ropes holding him down, keeping him from clearing whatever is blocking the passage to his breathing.
The pain, so severe kept Johnny from screaming for help as he begins convulsing on his bedroom floor, praying that his son would not come back. The beautiful opera cd was over, and the only sound Johnny could hear were the voices of those from the other side coming through.
The last thing Johnny Amuso saw before closing his eyes was the bright light emitting from the skies, as the vague, blurry faces of the angels on the other side waving him towards them welcoming Johnny home. |

My apologies for writing ANOTHER1 so soon...lol, I swear..this story is going to make sense soon
---------------
Head of the family: Chapter 4 - Rays of light
By the time Johnny Amuso re-opened his eyes, he realized he was in his bed with the covers still tucked in..He turns his head to see his wife lay next to him sleeping.
He had been dreaming, and even though he still thought the pain was erupting in his chest, he knew the horror of the light and the voices from the other side had simply been his imagination.
Johnny had dealt with the horrors of these night terrors all his life, that seemingly had gotten increasingly worse as his life progressed.
"Roxy, wake up would ya?"
Roxy, still wrapped in the blankets simply let out an annoyed grunt and rolled over ignoring her husband who only wanted something to eat.
"Would ya please make me somethin to eat?"
"Johnny...please"
"Please what Roxy?"
"Just cooperate with me!"
"Who the fuck do you think you are? You're the queen of this fucking mansion and here you are, not wantin to make me a little bit'a breakfast? I'M THE KING OF THIS CASTLE"
"Stop fighting!"
"STOP BEING SUCH A BITCH"
With those words Johnny pushes himself out of the bed in such anger that even his wife was forced to wake up.
"You don't seem to get it, I gotta go pay respect to Don Maloni today and I can't do that on an empty stomach..Okay?"
Roxanne rolled over ignoring her husbands cries of starvation and simply went back to bed. Johnny in complete and utter shock puts his pants on and leaves the bedroom slamming the door behind it. Moments later Johnny reaches the downstairs of his home when the phone rings.
"Yeah?"
"John it's me.."
"Me fucking who?"
"It's your old pal, Val"
"Are you out ya fuckin mind? We can't use this line..Call my cell from a pay phone..5 minutes"
Johnny slams the phone down in anger and makes his way to the fridge, to open it and see what he can rummage together for his breakfast. Inside the fridge were various covered objects from dinners nights ago, saved for such an occasion that John be forced to make his own breakfast for once.
"How the hell does she expect me to do this shit.."
"Hey dad"
JJ had entered the room, wearing the same suit John had seen in his dream only moments ago.
"You look great kid"
"You look hungry..but mom said I can't feed you"
"You can't what?? THAT FUCKING BITCH, I AUTTA RING HER FUCKING NECK"
"So, what do you think of the shoes pop?"
"They look good kid..real good"
"I'm taking out that girl Jessica tonight....She really wants to meet you"
"Yeah, well bring her by and I'll say hello..We'll have some pasta if ya motha would get off her ass and make me some damn breakfast"
Johnny opens the fridge when suddenly he swore he saw the figures from the other side inside of the light within the fridge. Johnny slams the fridge shut and begins to search around for his shoes in panic, when his phone rings.
"what?"
"It's me again.."
"Yeah? So?"
"There's something I gotta tell ya John..I..I dunno how you're gonna take it"
"What? Spit it out already"
"John...you need to wake up" |

Last one today..sorry, I just wanted to get the story rolling forward.
----------------
Head of the family: Chapter 5 - A rat in the family
Alas, John had woken..This time what seemed like for good to realize he'd been asleep at his desk waiting for the crew to return at any moment.
"Are you awake John?"
John wiped the sleep from his face and sat up from the table so he could stretch his legs a bit.
"Your mother called, she sends her love"
"Yeah?"
"Hey John, seriously now..We have to have a talk"
Johnny dreaded having these little talks with anybody in the family due to the fact that he never trusted anybody anymore. However Frank felt that what he had to tell John was far more important.
"John, we got a rat in the crew"
"A what?"
"A RAT JOHN..Someone is wired up"
"Who the fuck would be that stupid, to bring that shit in here?"
Frank, looked at John in worry and finally said the words he knew he was going to regret upon spitting them out of his mouth.
"It's Sal"
"What makes you say that?"
"I fed him some bullshit..And it got back to me John..He's the one"
Johnny looks on in both sadness and agony.
"How could this fucking happen? He was in this crew before I was!"
"Me too John..He just got flipped....we know what we gotta do"
"Yeah..I know what we gotta do, but how the fuck are we gonna pull it off?"
John and Frank sit across from each other for several moments without saying a word. Suddenly Bennie enters the room holding a plate filled with chicken parm, loaded with sauce and extra rolls on the side.
"You want some?"
"I could go for a bite yeah"
"Bennie, set another plate..And pop a bottle would ya"
Johnny begins to dig his fork into his plate and eat the noodles from around the chicken. Suddenly he stops eating and drops the fork.
"So, you're sure it's Sal?"
"I'm sure John"
"HOW FUCKING SURE IS SURE BUDDY...The guy is like a father to me"
"99%...He's flipped John...It's too late for the guy..The miserable prick"
Suddenly the door to the shop opens and Sal enters the room holding a giant envelope filled with cash, in which he drops in front of Johnny with a smile across his face that could be spotted from space, had the sunshine reflected his pearly whites.
"We do good Sal?"
"20 big ones in there John.."
"Jesus Christ, what'd ya pinch?"
"Let's just say I got a connection.."
"Yeah I heard"
"You heard? Who toldja?"
Bennie enters the room holding a second plate of food and the bottle of wine that he places down in front of Buddy with a smile when he spots Sal.
"Don't even say it John"
"SHUT THE FUCK UP AND SET A PLACE FOR SAL, FOR I CRACK YA SKULL"
Bennie, waves Johnny away with his hand and exits the room when John picks up the bottle of wine. He tips 3 glasses right side up and fills them with liquid with a smile on his face as the 3 of them sit together.
"Salute"
the 2 others chanted salute back to John as they make a toast..An unbreakable bond between brothers, that would very soon indeed be broken like the shard remains of hope left for the family. |
