In Rome there was a gang called the MAFIA. These people were a group of gangster’s. Now these gangsters sometimes weren’t pretty …actually they were never pretty. Everyone in Rome was scared of these people including the police. You would think the police weren’t scared of no one, but when it came to the Mafia they ran away like cats from dogs.
In 1974 is when this whole Mafia began when they started killing people who wouldn’t pay their debts they owed to the Mafia. There is a long story behind their family and the first person they killed. Embrace yourself.
In 1972 in Rome there was a family with the surname called the Georgio’s. They were respected very much because of their parents and their grandparents and their great grandparents etc. Their parents had always taught their children to stick up for themselves. So their children took that into notice but went a little too far sometimes. They started picking fights with anyone. One thing their children didn’t know was that there were stronger people then themselves.
One day, one of their children called Mario who was a teenager aged 17 was put in jail for attempted murder and illegal gambling. Now in their family tradition once you had been put in jail you were a real man. Except this theory didn’t always work some of the children stayed as little mama’s boys after they had been in jail. Mario was the 2nd most respected person in the whole Mafia. First were his dad Romano and his brother Roberto. Mario was expected to be the head gangster of the mafia after they died. So they thought.
On a hot summers day a man from Canada went to Rome to meet the Georgio’s. He was a black African, American named Tom Travolta. They were expecting him. Tom was welcomed in. Usually they didn’t welcome black people but there was something about him that made him welcome. He had an offer of $1 billion. All they had to do was capture someone.
But there was a twist the person was the family’s best friend his name was Gaetano. He was the only person who they got along with who wasn’t in their family. This was the first family decision so it had to be a good one. The Georgio’s had never captured someone before they had usually killed the person on the spot. So they thought they had to kill him.
As you know Mario had killed someone before and was ready to do it again. Mario didn’t want to show he missed Gaetano because he knew that they would lose respect for him and think he was a little mama’s boy, so he didn’t say anything. But Mario had other things on his mind so he left it for another year.
One Year Later
The Georgio’s had 1 minute silence to remember their good friend Gaetano and that reminded Mario about Tom again. So Mario told his family he was going on a holiday to Canada, which was partly true. When he left to go to Canada he found Tom and killed him. Over the years Mario had leant a lot about killing people and destroying the evidence so he used his knowledge. He stayed in Canada for an extra 2 months. Then he went back to Rome after that.
When he went back home his family had already found out about what happened to Tom. But strangely the only they to punish him was take away their agreement to have him be the next leader of the Mafia because he betrayed them, not because of the murder. The whole family had realised that people and family always come first.
