The young assassin approached the Martello mansion and because she had been seen too many times there already, the guards let her in without question. She was determined to rile the bald man up to make him do something rash and notch things up a bit. However, the second she entered the mansion, she realized no such thing was required. The man was already angry enough. Michelle smirked as she walked towards an enraged Martin, who was hell bent on showing Vincenze who was the boss. While Remy proposed caution, Michelle disagreed. “I agree with Mr. Martin here. We should hit them hard when we have the chance,” she would say, not showing the slightest of emotion. “See? She gets it. Get her to do it,” Martin said before getting up and leaving the room. Even though Remy was not too fond of the plan, he had no option but to let Michelle do it now.
The plan was simple; a little too childish for Michelle, in fact. She was supposed to spray paint the Martello gang’s crest. When she said she agreed with Mr. Martin in there, she really did not expect this to be their plan. Why am I doing this? That was a rhetorical question to herself; she knew she did not have much of an option here. And so, she began to plan her target buildings. If she was going to do this, the least she could do was target the properties that was going to cost the most for the Tessio gang.
Michelle decided to target the grocery store, restaurant, and bank. These were the three buildings that would be used by a variety of people, and the more people saw the Martello crest, the more forced Tessio would feel to react. As childish as this task might be, this could very well be the start of the gang war that Michelle had been waiting for.
It was early evening and it seemed the perfect time to target the restaurant. They are yet to open and when they do, it will have the most immediate and influential effect. Michelle headed to the restaurant and noticed that there was no one at the entrance, but of course the gate was locked. She saw smoke rise from the chimney. The employees must be in there already, getting ready to open it. First, she sprayed the Martello crest on the outside compound walls, and then jumped in. She hoped to finish this without attracting much attention.
