Trouble: An EPF Teens Side Story:
Chapter 2: Aurora:
JWB Academy: September 1995:
Aurora was unnaturally late today. She had been looking for Nick all morning, since he was supposed to start school today after transfering from Eastlaird. Now she had an excuse to see Nick outside of the occasional work function of their mothers and the Shooting range. She caught a glimpse of Nick entering the Principal's office, so she decided to wait nearby to bunp into him. This past few months talking to Nick had turned a bit awkward due to puberty ruining everything. "Keep calm Aurora. This is Nick. We know him. He's a bit of a dork, but in a good way... it's just that he's gotten taller, a bit more muscular and so dreamy!" Thought Aurora as she bumped into Nick causing her fake glasses to fall off.
"Oh so sorry!" Said Nick as he picked up the glasses. "Wait, Aurora? You study here too!?"
"Of course, I do, Silly! It was my Mom who helped you get in!" Replied Aurora. "I mean, you could've ended up at Eastlaird..."
"So, by any chance do you know where Mr. Dooney's class is?" Asked Nick.
"You got Dooney too? We're going to the same class! Better hurry so we can sit together!" Said Aurora with glee as she dragged Nick to class.
***
Dooney's classroom:
Nick encountered his old friends Tomi and Martha a lesbian couple who treated Nick like a brother. Aurora joined in on the action when Mr. Dooney arroved. She quickly sat next to Nick.
"Alright Class, I'm Mr. Dooney. For the next 49 minutes we shall embark on the wonderful world of American History. Please open your books on page 22" said Dooney as Nick fell sound asleep next to Aurora.
"Nick..." Aurora whispered. "Wake up! Dooney's coming your way."
"With o and one m or u with double m?" Mumbled Nick as he slowly sat straight.
"Mr. Cade. Care to repeat what I just said?" Dooney asked with a tinge of anger on his voice.
Scratching the back of his head, Nick smiled. "You were talking about the Pilgrims sailing across the Ocean to reach the New World and the first Thanksgiving not being a harvest celebration of Friendship with the Ind-Native Americans, but instead it was a massacre of Pequot people by the Puritans, who left England because the Church was too liberal for them." Replied Nick. "You also made a remark that Pocahontas was a loli and not a supermodel with talking animals, as a jab against the animated movie, which is incorrect as animals in said movie didn't talk. Only a tree spirit talked."
"But you were sleeping in class!?" Exclaimed Dooney. "How did you do that!?"
Nick gave Mr. Dooney a shit-eating grin. "I was paying attention, as you could see. I was also doing some training regarding my own spatial awareness. I won't go into details but you stepped on a wad of gum and your left foot is sticking a little and altering your gait in comparison to when you entered the room. I was tracking your movements by sound without eyesight. But back to class, you didn't mention the Norse expeditions which predate the Pilgrims, but I'll guess since they were more involved with Canadian history, you skipped them. But the disrespect to Juan Ponce de León, the discoverer of Florida is unforgivable." Said Nick.
"So, you're knowledgeable in history, Mr. Cade... Carry on, just try not to snore too hard." Said Dooney as he lifted his left shoe and noticed the gum. "I can see why Bishop is invested in him." Thought Dooney as he returned to his desk.

Cade Residence: October 7th 1995:
Mr. Barril was reading Crime and Punishment in the dining room. Nick enters with Aurora.
"Nicolás, Aurorita, recierden mantener la puerta abierta." Said Mr. Barril. "Tu madre quiere evitar situaciones con el tío John... como embarazar a una de sus estudiantes."
"I'm not embarrassed." Said Aurora.
"He's talking about me impregnating you. Embarazar means impregnate." Replied Nick. "Let's go upstairs, Julio is waiting."
"Si no fuera por Aurorita, pensaría que mis dos hijos son maricones." Thought Mr. Barril as Nick and Aurora went upstairs.
---
Attic:
Julio was sitting down at the Sewing machine finishing some touches on Aurora's Bat wings. Mrs. Barril was working on the harness to hold the wings.
"Niquito, Aurorita, ya casi terminamos con el traje de Aurora. ¡Coño, Comemierda, no pudiste elegir un traje más complicado para Aurorita!" Said Dr. Barril.
"Thanks Doc!" Said Aurora. "Is there anything I can do to help?"
"We're NOT at an EPF facility, you can call me Giselle." Said Nick's mom. "Niquito, try on your costume." Said Giselle as she pointed towards Nick's Dimitri Costume. "Julito found a cravat that works with the outfit."
Nick grabbed the outfit and went behind the privacy curtain to change. He was struggling a bit with the tights and he forgot to put on the dancer's belt so his package was fully marked. Once he had the outfit on, Nick walked towards the mirror and began spouting random Dimitri quotes. "Come on Baby, Mmmmmm!"
"¡Ay Niquito, te tienes que poner el suspensor! ¡Tienes la pinga bien marcada Y eso no te lo van a permitir en la escuela!" Said Giselle. "And you Aurorita, you have To whear These flesh colored tights,otherwise You're gonna have your boobs flying out out and That's not good for School!" Said Giselle with her thic Cuban accent.
"You should've gone with the Bison costume this year Nico." Said Julio. "Aurora, I found a dress that would work for Rose, and you have the boobs to wear it. I modified it with flesh colored tights that nearly match your skin tone... and it's more comfortable than the Morrigan costume."
"You Barril boys are theater kids at heart." Said Aurora. "Let me guess, you already have the wig ready too!"
"Of course!" Said Nick."We are the Barril bros. And we have full access to the materials and theateical equipment at school. I'll try the Bison suit just in case" Exclaimed Nick as he went behind the privacy curtain to change. After a while Nick stepped out fron behind the curtain.
"For you, the day Bison graced your village was the most important day of your life. But for me, it was Tuesday."
Aurora facepalmed hard. "Óyeme Comemierda, te tienes que pintar el pelo para éso." Said Julio before being hit by a slipper.
"No hables malo, coño." Said Giselle as she waited for Julio to return the slipper.

Central Park Zoo: December 26. 1995:
After enjoying the day on the Zoo, Aurora sits on a Bench as tears swell in her eyes. Her glasses were fogging up. Nick sits next to her.
"Christmas is already over." Said Aurora.
"Yeah." Said Nick Absent-mindedly.
"At least we got to celebrate together." Replied Aurora as she wiped her tears.
"Yeah..." said Nick as he remembered the events of the previous day.
"Nick... My father is moving to Italy. Bishop business. Mom and I will follow by the end of the school year." Said Aurora. "I've known since the 23rd. I don't want to leave you,Nick!" Aurora cried onto Nick's chest as he held her.
"I don't WANT you to leave." Said Nick. "I Could talk to Bishop. He sees great potential in me."
"But I'm a distraction... just as you are one to me." Said Aurora. "I've seen the scores. We're great, but our scores have suffered ever since we became an item. Bishop cuts off distractions."
"But we're too valuable to be fully cut off... Bishop, you son of a bitch!" Replied Nick. "So, we're doomed lovers... Aurora, We may be pushed apart, but our hearts will find each other. This, I swear."
Aurora pushed Nick away as she ran to the subway station. He sat there trying to assimilate everything that just happened.
***
JFK Airport: January 6th 1996:
Nick was hugging Aurora as he whispered in her ear."I will find you. We will be together. I love you." Both were crying as Mr. Porter tapped Nick on the shoulder.
"I'm so sorry, but we need to go now. Please Nicholas, let my girl go." Said Mr. Porter as Nick reluctantly let go. Tears were streaming down Aurora's face as she walked the runway to reach the gate.
Once aboard the plane, Aurora pulled out Michael Crichton's Jurassic Park to read on the long flight. But the book reminded her of the Halloween party where Tomi and Martha were dressed like Grant and Sattler, which brought her back to Nick.
---
Porter Residence: Halloween 1994
The Porters were having a Halloween Party. A gathering of various socialites who come in disguise to do business of variois levels of legality while Mark P. Porter secretly records everything for the sake of protecting America. Meanwhile his wife Theophania uses these meetings for philanthropic ends and it some cases put dirty money to good use. This time was no different. Nick gulped. He felt uncomfortable dressed up as Iron Grenadier Destro as he waited at the bottom of the stairs for Aurora.
"Ah, Nicholas. That explains it!" Said Mr. Porter dressed like Dracula. "Aurora will come down soon. We had to send Gerald to get some baby powder so she could finish getting dressed. Isn't your mask supposed to be silver, Mr. McCullen?"
Nick was surprised. "Well, the normal outfit looks a bit too much like a pimp in real life, and the Iron Grenadier outfit was far easier to make from existing clothing." Said Nick. Thankfully the Destro mask kept Nick's jaw from hitting the floor as he heard Aurora squeaking down the stairs.
"Ah, noble Destro, so nice to be in your presence once again." Said Aurora in character.
"Oh yes, Baroness!" Said Nick in character while trying to sound Less like Arthur Burghardt, but more Scottish. "Come. Cobra Commander awaits!" As they were leaving, a familiar face showed up.
"Aren't you two a bit too old to be playing GI Joe vs Cobra?" Said Bishop. "Can't wait until you're a bit older so you can be my GI Joes... But, Keep practicing, Cade. I could use an infiltrator who can blend in easily. Porter, you're one hell of a Sniper. With a little hand to hand improvement, you could be a deadly operative." Bishop chuckled. "Oh, hi Mark! Good to see you!" Bishop left Nick and Aurora as he went to chat with Mr. Porter.
***
Train station Abruzzo, Italy: January 12, 1996
As Aurora and the Porters exited the station, they found themselves staring at Bishop who was dressed in his traditional black suit and holding a sign with the Porter's name on it.
""Mark, Theophania, Aurora! I have been waiting!" Said Bishop as he personally put the Porters' luggage inside an Alfa Romeo that looked like a beater. "Don't worry, the car is far more comfortable than it looks." Once the Porters got in, they realized that the car was much bigger on the inside. Once Bishop got in and the doors were closed, Bishop's demeanor changed.
"Aurora is to be enrolled in L'academia delle scienze e delle arti Salvatore Romita. She's to get in contact with a young Teacher's assistant, Aldo Maraviglia." Said Bishop. "Aldo is a bit of a creep and likes them young. He recently began working on some illicit Superhuman experiments based on his grandfather's work during the war. We need to get him to our side, but more importantly to procure the journals and notes." Mark groaned."Of course, the pilfering of the documents will be in Mark's hands, as a Plan B. Plan A is to have him to come willingly to work for me. Besides, I know Aurora is far more than capable to defend herself. For now enjoy your life as American investors in Italy, which is what you are." Bishop kept his emotionless face as he looked at the Porters through the rear view mirror. Mark looked a bit angry. Theophania kept a composed face. Aurora was at the verge of tears. "I understand why Aurora would react like that, but you, Mark? You're a veteran at this!" Said Bishop as he reached a villa. "Here we are! You're literally Maraviglia's neighbors." Said Bishop. "On the other side of that hill, lies Villa Maraviglia, a gift from Mussolini to the Maraviglia family. The current Patriarch, Luca Maraviglia is an exporter of Olive Oil. He had interest in buying the land you currently own, as it would've helped him expand his business with a vineyard. That's right, Mark, you're the owner of a small but exclusive vineyard. Enjoy." Once Bishop parked the car in the garage, he flipped a switch that lowered the car into a sub level.
"You won't be alone, as you'll have a small squad of EPF agents providing support. That way Aurora can also continue her training." Bishop went to a wall and pushed a red button. A small pod arrived. "In case of emergency, you can use these transport pods that will take you to the nearest EPF safehouse." Bishop boarded the pod and left.
***
L'academia delle scienze e delle arti Salvatore Romita: January 16, 1996
Aurora felt weird having a new start in a new country while having to deal with secret agent shenanigans. She walked towards her classroom and sat on the back corner. Trying to remain invisible. Her goal was Maraviglia. She'd been to three classes already and still no Maraviglia. A young man about 20 years old entered the classroom. He had dirty blond hair tied to a ponytail. He had glasses hanging atop his head. He was carrying a briefcase and a backpack.
"Buon giorno Classe. Abbiamo una nuova studentessa. Signorina, per favore indica il tuo nome ai suoi colleghi" Said the teacher.
"My name is... scusi. Il mio nome è Aurora Porter, sono degli Estati Uniti, più precisamente da New York. È un piacere stare qui nel vostro paese." Said Aurora with a bit of a Brooklyn accent. "Grazie professore Colucci."
"Oh no, non sono il professor Colucci. Sono il suo assistente, Aldo Maraviglia" said the teacher. "Il professor Colucci tornerà a febbraio, per una situazione familiare. Intanto seguirò l'itinerario del professor Colucci."
(Nefty's note: I'll be writing in English for the sake of not being translating into Italian, because Voglio uccidere il gufo Duolingo)
Aurora returned to her seat as class Started.

Porter Villa vineyard: April 6, 1996
Aurora was walking across the vineyard reaching the fence between the Porter villa and the Maraviglia villa. She was wearing a white sundress and a hat. She sat under a tree and began doodling on her sketchpad. She looked over the fence and she saw Aldo running a horse shirtless, his honeyed hair freed from the constraints of his usual ponytail. The sweat on his skin made him glisten like a Greek god. Aurora's panties were moist as she imagined being held by Aldo and him having his way with her atop the horse. "Not the time or place Aurora " she thought before standing up.
♧"Oh Professor! I didn't think I'd see you putside of school!" Said Aurora as she tried to cover her nether region.
♧"Wait, you're my neighbor?" Said Aldo. "I feel like an idiot! My apologies. Hello, Neighbor." Aldo's horse was getting impatient. "Whoa! Easy Hannibal! Whoa!" Said Aldo before being bucked off the horse after thunder struck. Aurora climbed over the fence to help her teacher up.
♧"I got you!" Said Aurora as she helped her techer stand up. "You can lean on me!" She said as she slid herself under his arm. Aurora began blushing as his hand was resting on her breast. "Which way is your house, a barn or the nearest roofed place because it's going to..." rain interrupted Aurora and it was making her dress transoarent. "Shit! I didn't wear a bra because of this dress." Thought Aurora as the rain made the dress cling to her and accentuate her curves, not to mention giving Aldo an eyeful. Aldo felt her nipple poking his palm. He smiled as they both finally reached the back of the house and they entered through the laundry.
♧"Where's the service staff?" Asked Aurora.
♧"Father doesn't trust waiting staff." Said Aldo. "While he's nouveau riche, he still believes on teaching us, the importance of being self-reliant. Money comes and goes, but skills are forever. Now the fields require hired help, because they're too much for the 5 of us. Mom, Dad, Giuseppe and Regina... my siblings." Aldo looked at Aurora who was shivering. "Aurora, you must undress so we can get your clothes washed and dried." Aurora looked at Aldo confuded.
♧"You're my teacher." Said Aurora. "This feels a bit-"
♧"I know it's not normal, but it's either that or pneumonia." Replied Aldo. "Besides, this also applies to me as well." Aurora's eyes widened and she blushed as Aldo removed his pants and showed her his erection.
Aurora stared at the turgid penis as she slipped out the sundress. "It looks a bit too thin, or Nick's was girthier." She thought.
♧"Panties too." Said Aldo as his penis head glistened with precum. Aurora licked her lips before removing her panties. Aldo quickly tossed them in the washing machine and set a delicate load as Aurora stood there naked doing a bad job of covering herself. Aldo was trying hard to not look but his penis twitched at every glance he took. "Aldo! Control yourself! She's your student... your very sexy student who's accidentally playing one of your fantasies!" Aldo thought as he sheepishly pointed Aurora to one if the servants bathrooms as he streaked towards his own bathroom to shower and masturbate furiously.
Aurora entered the shower and let the warm water splash her body. "Aldo might not be Nick, but for the mission, I shall lose my virginity to him." A knock on the door snapped Aurora out of her reverie as she realized her left hand had been exploring her nether region.
"Asciugamano." Said Aldo from the other side of the door.
"Sto venen- arrivando!" Replied Aurora as she hid behind the door and slipped her arm to get the towel.
♧"I also have a shirt for you to wear while your clothes dry." Said Aldo as he handed her a Queen themed Shirt with the 4 Shadaloo generals.
♧"Thanks!" Said Aurora as she grabbed the shirt. She sighed when she saw the shirt as Nick had a similar shirt. "Focus Aurora. We're here to seduce Aldo." She thought. Aurora realized the shirt was a tad short and would expose her if she tried to pick stuff up. She chuckled before leaving the bathroom. Aldo's jaw dropped. Aurora looked beautiful. Aldo escorted Aurora to the entertainment room. There was a pool table. "Excellent." Aurora thought. "I've always wanted to learn how to play pool." Said Aurora as she batted her eyes. Aldo grinned.
♧"I'll teach you, Aurora." Said Aldo as he racked up the balls. "I'll let you break. That means, you go first."
Aurora grabbed the stick clumsily and missed the shot, but made sure to expose her already excited self to Aldo. "I don't know how to use this stick. I did like in the movies and failed." Said Aurora in English.
♧"It's OK. I'll teach you." Said Aldo as he stood behind Aurora ensuring she could feel his rock hard penis. Aurora wiggled a bit on Aldo as he bent over her and helped her do a perfect break.
♧"Looks like you're solid, Aldo!" Said Aurora. "And I don't mean the billiard balls. Shame that you're four years older than me. Otherwise..." Aurora bit her lips and moaned as she kept writhing on Aldo's crotch and straining his pants. Aldo muttered.
"My turn. I can speak the English as well." Said Aldo. "I graduated from Oxford at 16. I'm gifted." He shot but accidentally had a striped ball land in a pocket. ♧"Your turn, pretty lady." Said Aldo as Aurora wiggled her butt at Aldo.
"Are you going to help me or stare at my butt?" Said Aurora as Aldo came to her. She kept wiggling as Aldo stained his pants.
♧"Mmmmm! If only my pants weren't in the way." Thought Aldo.

Villa Maraviglia: Aldo's Bedroom: December 25th, 2002:
Aurora was laying down on Aldo's bed. She kept staring at her engagement ring. Aldo came in carrying a tray with coffee and Nutella toast.
"You're awake, good." Said Aldo as he kissed her... "By the way, Bishop sent me back with a bodyguard." Said Aldo annoyed. "Yes, it's Test Subject 5TR0N20." He saw a glimmer in her eyes that he rarely saw and it made Aldo angry. This justified his pettiness and his tampering of the super soldier serum used on Cade.
Aurora got off the bed and got dressed. She then jerked Aldo off in order to spice up the Nutella toast with his seed. As she went down the stairs she saw Nick, who looked much older talking with Don Luca.
♧"Ah, so good to see you again, Mr. Cade." Said Luca. "It's a shame you're married, because my little Regina is infatuated with you. Especially now that your face reflects your maturity."
Aurora chuckled at the idea of Nick being mature. ♧"Ah, Babo Luca! Good Morning! Hi! Nick!" Said Aurora. "Congratulations on your marriage. You should tell me all about it later after I finish some errands. One more thing, Babo Luca, 'Work Nick' is professional. 'Outside of work Nick'makes a 13 year old look mature. Don't be fooled by his professionalism. The real Nick is not a stick in the mud like 'work Nick'. I know! Caccia al cinghiale! We should go! I haven't practiced shooting live targets in a while. I'll ask father if he'd accompany us. I know Nick will bring his best friend Redd and both you and father have business partners who love doing business during caccia meetings. Also, it would be great for Aldo to leave the villa for once." Said Aurora.
---
Hunting Grounds
Luca, Aldo, Giuseppe, Regina, Aurora, Mark, Redd, Nick, and other business associates of Luca and Mark were hunting boars. Mark was a bit disappointed by the cacophony that made his wires useless. Luca, once again was trying to convince Mark to sell the vineyard for the sake of having the wine be kept in Abruzzese hands. Instead Mark pointed out his guests would like to distribute Luca's Olive Oil. Regina was a bit mopey. The news of Nick's wedding didn't sit well with her... or Aurora. One of the business partners was chatting with Nick. Aurora tried to listen on the conversation.
"Ah, Nicholas, you're such a riot!" Said the Red haired Woman.
"Ah, it's nothing." Said Nick "Redd and I have gotten in some crazy situations in the past 2 years working a bodyguards."
"But nothing beats the time Cade accidentally motorboated Dolly Parton when trying to help her get off an Escalade." Said Redd while laughing heartily. "Yo! Aurora! Meet Madame Aibonez. She's a philharmonist for women's rights and stuff. Madame, this is Aurora Porter, former classmates of mine and Cade's Ex. Her fiancé is that very Aldo Merovingian."
Aibonez ignored Redd. "¿No sé cómo puedes soportar a ese cabeza de chorlito? Supongo que la fuerza bruta es la razón por la cual lo toleras." Aibonez whispered in Spanish.
"Puede ser un poco grosero, idiota y testarudo, pero no hay nadie a quien confiaría mi vida en el campo de batalla más que a él." Replied Nick. "Oh, yes, this is Aurora Porter, my Middle School Sweetheart, the one that got away. But I'm a happily married man now. Sadly. I Don't have pictures of her with me. This will sound crazy, but you kinda remind me of her, Madame Aibonez." Some rustling in the bushes caught everyone's attention as a Boar began running towards the group. Aurora raised her rifle, took aim and fired her shot. The boar kept running at them.
"It's impossible that I missed. That shot was perfectly lined." Thought Aurora. She lined up for another shot and missed. Aurora noticed that Aibonez had also shot at the boar and seemed Angry. The boar got too close to use the rifles and it tried to gore Redd. The red haired giant of a man grabbed the boar by the tusks and flipped it so fast that he snapped its neck.
"¿Nada Mal para un cabeza de chorlito, no cree doña Aibonez?" Said Redd. "Elian here made sure I learned Spanish. I know you were birn in the USA,Cade, now shut it! I'm teaching Madame Adianez a lesson." Redd picked up the carcass. "So do we cook it now?"
***
Villa Maraviglia: March 29, 2003:
Aldo had left Italy for a meeting with Bishop. Redd was acting as Bodyguard, since it was Nick's day off. Seeing that Aurora was all alone, she decided to waddle her very pregnant self to the bathroom when her water broke. She grabbed her EPF communicator and contacted Nick.
"I know it's your Day off, but My water broke! I need help! I'm all alone here!" Yelled Aurora.
"Aurora, calm down. Nick's in the bathroom. We're on our way. Take some rhythmic breaths 1, 2, 3, exhale!" Said Carmen as she grabbed some clothes for Nick. "Nico! Aurora rompió fuente!" Nick came out naked as he scrambled to put on the clothes Carmen had prepared. "Hospital or at home birth?" Asked Carmen.
"There's no time for hospitals and my midwife is 2 hours away!" Screamed Aurora. "Tell Nick to hurry!"
"We're on our way Aurora." Said Nick as he picked up the comm. Carmen entered the room.
"Just talked to Mom and Dad. They're collecting their tools and be here in 5." Said Carmen as Aurora got angry.
"I don't WANT the ginger bitch or her family here!" Snarled Aurora.
Carmen picked the comm. "Now listen here, Aurora. Do you want your kid to live? Well, right now, Gibger Bitch's parents are your only hope. Both are experienced in midwifery in various Earthling creatures, humans included. Not to mention 17 non-Terran races. So, it's either my parents or risking the lives of your kid and yours. TRUCE?"
"I fucking hate you, Ginger bitch, but alright." Grunted Aurora as Obed and Lydia entered the room.
"We're coming dearie!" Said Lydia as Nick was setting the coordinates to the Villa. In the blink of an Eye Obed, Lydia, and the Cades were on Aurora's bedroom as both men helped Aurora to the bed. Carmen and Lydia began preparing the bedroom for the birth.
Nick stepped out of the room and began calling Aldo. "Come on pick up!" Nick Grunted as the phone went straight to voice-mail.
♧"Aurora is giving birth RIGHT NOW!!"
Nick hung up the phone and called Redd.
"Reid! Are you with Maraviglia?" Asked Nick. "Aurora is giving birth. Tell Maraviglia FASTER THAN ASAP!" Exclaimed Nick. Redd could hear Aurora's screams in the background with Lydia telling her to push. "It's crazy out here!"
Nick remained outside as he heard Aurora cursing like a sailor. Three hours later the phone rang. It was Aldo. He began cussing at Nick.
♧"Why the fuck are you even there?" Yelled Aldo as Nick took a deep breath.
♧"Why aren't you here? Your wife has been screaming for you as she's still trying to give birth! I know Redd warned you over two hours ago. You really are a piece of work, Maraviglia. You're supposed to be here with your wife!" Nick retorted as both men kept arguing. He returned to Aurora's room and grabbed Carmen's TM band. "Aurora, I'll be back with your dumbass husband. I may have to knock some sense into him." Said Nick as he activated the TM Band.
***
EPF Upstate New York HQ:
Nick entered the facility and used his keycard to reach the lab levels. He went through the entire disinfection protocols until he found Aldo chatting with Bishop. "Hello, John. Did Aldo tell you his wife is giving birth RIGHT now, No? I'm taking him with me. I'll bring him back once the birthing is done and he's held his child." Said Nick as he punched Aldo in the face.
"Che cazzo! Mi hai colpito, maledetto cubano!" Exclaimed Maraviglia as Nick punched him once more. "Bisho! Stop this animal!"
Bishop sighed. "Bring him back soon, Cade. Say hi to Obed for me." Said Bishop as Nick slapped the TM Band on Aldo and returned to Italy.
***
Villa Maraviglia:
As soon as both Nick and Aldo appeared in Italy, Nick punched Aldo once more and took off the TM Bamd before dragging him to the room.
"As promised, one Dr. Maraviglia, a little beat up, but he's here." Said Nick as he realized the birth was already done and Aurora was holding one baby and Regina, who showed up while Nick was gone was holding the other one. He slapped Aldo. "You missed it, maldito cabrón."
Aldo looked pissed. Nick grabbed Aldo as he reactivated the bands before dropping Maraviglia at the NY HQ. Swiftly, he pilfered Carmen's band from Aldo before kicking him in the chest and returning to Italy.
Aurora was tired and Regina had taken care of the babies. Obed and Lydia had already left while Carmen was sitting on a chair and covering her mouth.
"Aurora is going to be alright. Her daughter Alicia seems strong. The other daughter, Carlotta will be raised by Regina. But you need to watch over them, Nick. In her delirious state, Aurora mentioned using a Super Soldier formula similar to yours. Bishop MUSTN'T know." Said Carmen between coughing fits and hiding the bloody handkerchief.
Villa Maraviglia: April 30th, 2004:
Nick had left for Puerto Rico two nights ago. After Last year's fight with Maraviglia, Aldo resented Cade even more, but what he hated the most was that Cade was right. A few weeks after Alicia was born, Regina and her husband moved out to his family's place in Rome. Now
Giuseppe was visiting business partners in Portugal while Luca and his wife were traveling abroad. Essentially the huge Mansion was empty aside Aldo, Aurora, and baby Alicia.
Despite having missed out on Alicia's birth, Aldo kept tabs of her for most of the day, whenever he was home. Today, Aldo had taken the day off. Knowong he had some looming death threats from some ethical groups did not worry him. Aurora had realized that Aldo was an amoral sociopath whose currently obsessed with Alicia and Carlotta. Aurora wondered if it was his parental side or something more sinister. For some reason, Aurora thought this was Carmen's doing. Regardless, she took advantage of the situation in order to take a relaxing long bath. Unbeknownst to Aurora, fate was preparing a bad hand for the Maraviglia family.
A pair of men had entered the cellar of the Maraviglia household. They were well aware of the lack of staff at the Mansion, so they crept through the kitchen and reached the Library where Aldo was "playing" with Alicia. Before entering the room, a masked woman had joined in. They entered the Library and aimed their guns at Aldo.
(☭=translated Russian)
☭"Doctor, put the child down and hand over your Grandfather's Formula if you want to remain amongst the living." Said the first Masked man.
☭"Doctor, don't make us shoot you. Hand over the formula and we're out of here." Said the second man as he aimed straight at Aldo's head.
☭"You idiots, Maraviglia doesn't speak Russian!" Said the woman. ♧"Doctor, put down the child and hand over the Super Soldier Formula."
Aldo threw Alicia at the assailants with one of the men shooting at him. The woman dove to catch Alicia, but she was too late. Aldo weaved past some bookshelves and knocked them over. He lit a fire to burn the Library and make his escape. The two men went after him as the woman escaped with the badly wounded Alicia.
"Goddammit! Aldo wasn't supposed to do that! Tossing our daughter like that! For how long has he known." Thought Aurora as she entered the stables and took Aldo's horse to ride all the way to the Porters. As she jumped the fence, she saw her father, Mark, carrying a briefcase with the Maraviglia documents. "Dad, prep the escape pod and call Bishop!" Yelled Aurora as she rode as fast as the Horse could. Once she reached the safehouse, The pod was ready and Bishop was waiting with medical help on the other side.
***
EPF Italian Safehouse:
Dr. Crespo and Nurse Joaquina were waiting As Aurora gave them the barely breathing Alicia.
"Alright, we may need some blood for transfusion, what's the child's blood type?" Asked Nurse Joaquina.
"B+ like me." Said Aurora. "Unfortunately, I'm Iron deficient at the moment, due to yesterday's blood drive. I could die, but my daughter comes first!" Aurora began removing the catsuit in order to expose her arms for the eventual donation.
"That won't be necessary, Agent Porter... My Blood will be more than enough to save your child." Said Bishop. "You still need to find Maraviglia and tie that loose end."
Dr. Crespo sanitized the wound area and began resetting her bones. Using artificial blood, he kept Alicia alive until she could receive Bishop and Aurora's blood. Nurse Joaquina had used a recent batch from Aurora's blood that was taken from the Trimestral Blood Drive.
Aurora didn't leave her side until Bishop called again.
***
Villa Maraviglia: Library:
The two men held up Aldo, who did not struggle much after the beating. After being told through an earpiece they let Aldo go.
*Bang!*
A bullet entered the Library and it destroyed Aldo's right knee. As he fell down,
*Bang!*
Another shot hit his left shoulder. Hollering in pain, Aldo tried to crawl away when
*Bang!*
A third shot hit his left ankle. He soiled himself as he couldn't control his bowel movements out of fear and pain.
The masked men laughed, as they knew what was coming next. A few minutes later Aurora enters the library wearing the full bodysuit and mask concealing her identity.
♧"You've got some nerve, Aurora... How long were you planning this? Was it when that poor bastard Cade became bodyguard? Hah... that idiot got what he deserves. I fucked up his face!" Aldo laughed in pain. "No... it can't be!" Aldo crawled to the fireplace. "And I'm the creep for using them so young..."
"You think I didn't know of your 'indiscretions'? Giulietta, Alessandra, Camilla, Maria... and all the other girls you were sleeping with while you 'waited for me'?" Said Aurora. "You only stayed with me because you were afraid of Bishop AND your father wanted an heir. I know you were involved with girls as young as 8, Aldo..." Aurora spat on his face. "I had been biding my time and awaiting for the kill order after I discovered what you were doing. Those girls didn't deserve to be corrupted like that!!"
"I can do whatever I want with those dolls! Just as I corrupted you... You're barren Aurora. I made sure of that. Now with Alicia dead, all that I've got left is my little 'niece'... and my other bastards." Aldo cackled madly. "Those girls I impregnated carry various experimental strains of the Super Soldier Formula... Just as you do... The notes, they're worthless without me." Aldo laughed as he slammed his head to the wrought iron fireplace grate entering through his eye and poking out the back of his head.
Thus came the end of Aldo Maraviglia, amateur scientist, husband, father, monster. Aurora cried before placing explosives throughout the property and blowing up the accursed villa.

May 8th, 2011: Cade Residence:
Aurora had finished cleaning up the guest room. She had spent the last few days clearing it up and trying to make it suitable for a young boy. Problem was that she didn't know Nick Jr
and had no idea how to decorate his room. She wasn't fond of the idea, since he was a reminder of Nick's betrayal to her. The son of the demon slut who stole Nick from her. "Can't be thinking like that, Aurora... I won, Nick left the slut to be with me. He even forgave my indiscretion with Aldo. He understood it was a mission... but he loves that Devil Bitch!" Said Adora as her grip broke the broom. Alicia came running to the room.
"Mom, when is my new brother coming? What does he look like? Does he look like Dad? What does he like? Do you think we'll be friends? What's a Devil Bitch? Alicia kept firing hundreds of questions and Aurora felt overwhelmed.
"I don't KNOW! Alicia, honey. This is very stressful for me. Please, slow down..." said Aurora. "I don't know much about Nick's son. He was conceived and born during the time Nick and I were on a break. Your biological father died the day he was born, because Nick wasn't home to protect us."
"Oh yeah, Dad, err Mr. Cade, was our bodyguard." Replied Alicia. "That's when you found out about my condition... but-"
"Let me finish, honey." Said Aurora. "At the time Nick was married to another person. Eventually Nick divorced her because he loved me. He sacrificed his family for us. Especially, since she blocked Nick from seeing his son. I don't know or trust him. Be careful around him Alicia."
"OK, Mom! Maybe we should get like markers, Paper, and other arts and crafts stuff so he can decorate his room as he wishes." Said Alicia. "I think that'll work. If we knew what he liked, we could decorate it better, but we don't. Let's hit the crafts store!" Exclaimed Alicia with Glee.
"We're not buying the Cheshire Cat lampshade." Said Aurora.

Cade Residence, April 15, 2022: about 2 weeks before Day 0:
Nick Jr was in his room taking pictures of a high end statue when Mr. Cade yelled: "Junior! Aurora and your sister are here! Quit being an antisocial freak who plays with himself to cartoons and get down here!" A loud groan was heard from the second floor.
"Coming, old.man!" Replied Nick Jr. left the room.
"That coming better be spelled with an O and one M and not with an u and two Ms..." Mr. Cade retorted. Nick Jr. sighed
"First, Eww! Second, don't let Alicia enter my room. I don't like it when she messes around with my stuff." Nick Jr. Whined as he was ready to slide down the handrail.
"Don't slide down the handrail! The pizzas are gettong cold!" Exclaimed Nick Sr. As Nick Jr. began walking down the stairs.
Aurora and Nick Sr. we're sitting at the table eating a Hawaiian pizza. Alicia had picked off all the pepperoni from the pizza and eating plain cheese slices. Nick Jr. groaned.
"Where are the Pepperoni?" Said Nick Jr. While staring daggers at Alicia.
"Raymond, just eat the goddamned pizza." Said Mr. Cade.
"Here I thought everybody loved Raymond." Said Alicia before going upstairs. Nick Jr. heard the deafening squeal by Alicia.
"Shit! My statue!" Muttered Nick Jr. As he tried to leave the table.
"Where do you think you're going?" Said Aurora.
"To stop your crotchgoblin from ruining my very expensive statue that I spent months doing odd jobs to afford!" Exclaimed Nick Jr as he ran upstairs. "ALICIAAAA! LEAVE MY ALICE IN WONDERLAND STATUE ALONE!" Yelled Nick as he ran upstairs and found Alicia in his room and the statue gone.
"There is no Alice here, only Alicia...
I can be your statue or your cast-off doll... onii-chan!" Said Alicia in a devilishly cute voice. "Besides, everyone knows that in this house if it's about Alice in Wonderland, it's automatically mine..." Alicia gave Nick a Cheshire Cat-like grin
"Listen you little Devil in a Blue dress, I busted my ass for 5 months to pay for that statue! If you want it, hand over the $575 I spent for it." Replied Nick Angrily.
*CRASH!*
Alicia dropped the statue and it shattered into a million pieces. Nick clenched his right fist so hard he felt blood dripping and threw a punch to the wall above Alicia and leaving a hole in the drywall. "Mom, Dad! Nick tried to punch me!" Yelled Alicia as she ran to her room. Nick began picking up the pieces.
"Almost six hundred dollars down the drain... I spent 5 months working hard for it... Fuck Alicia, Fuck her whore mother, and fuck my asshole F- Donor! I can't fucking wait until September so I can go to college and be free from the assholes in this household." Nick muttered as he kept picking up the pieces.
Aurora entered the room and saw the hole on the wall. "What the hell!? You broke the wall! You can't solve things with vi-"
Nick pushed Aurora out and slammed the door in her face.
"You're NOT My Mom! Are you going to pay for the statue? Then get the fuck out!" Yelled Nick as he locked the door and dropped on the bed. "Fuck it! I'm filling the Application to study in Puerto Rico and put an ocean between these assholes."
Aurora stood in front of the door shocked as she felt her underwear getting moist. "If only you knew the impure thoughts I have about you..." Aurora thought. "What am I thinking!?He's my stepson! I can'tbe thinking like that" Aurora went to the Master bedroom to relieve her frustration and to bury her dirty thoughts...
