The women lay asleep on the boat, the team want answers for the reason why Trish is back with them. "What the hell are you doing?" Leone spoke up for the rest of them. Bruno glances at Latte with her back press against the wall of the boat next to Trish. He silently thanks the woman's intervention. Without her, he doesn't know what to think what will happen to them. Standing straight up, Bruno faces his team. "I can't explain now because there is no time and danger is right around the corner." He spoke up, "The reason Trish is back because I betrayed the boss just now." His team stood shock at this while Giorno stood in the sidelines.
"I'll be leaving you guys now. If you come with me, you will also become traitors." Bruno states. They couldn't believe what they are hearing now but they wonder why. "You shouldn't hear it anymore because you guys have nothing to do with this." Bruno told them, not wanting to risk their lives by hearing what they said. Giorno suggests telling them since it will give a chance for them to follow them. Leone grabs Giorno in anger. Bruno felt weak for the moment, falling on his knees. He needs time to recover from his injuries.
"Are you all right?" Giorno approaches Bruno. Bruno simply told him that he is just dizzy then stood up. Approaching the team, they want to know the details. With a moment of silence, Bruno told the team in detail of what happened in that building. He can't just stand by and let Trish be killed by the Boss. Bruno knows that Latte shares the same thought due to the actions she had made. Leone told him what happen to traitors. Bruno accepts it but let them have a chance to join him - by their own freewill.
"I will defeat the boss." He declares. With that, Bruno give them time to chose their own path.
Latte woken up by the sight of the familiar glass ceiling. She sits up from the red couch. Looking down to see a blanket covering her body, Latte stretches her arms in front of her. She left her spot to stand up. Her eyes lands on Trish sleeping on the other side of the long couch. Pinching the bridge of her nose, she tries to remember what happen before she blacked out.

Her memories hit her like a truck as her eyes widen in realization. "What happen to the others?!" She thought to herself. Raising her head to look up, she only saw the blue sky. Latte reaches up to the ceiling to appear on the boat suddenly.
"GAH!" Leone and Latte hold their foreheads in pain. "Latte, you are fine!" Narancia moves to pull her into an embrace. Latte is caught off-guard but returns the hug. Leone glares at the mute woman for the pain. That's what he gets for volunteering to check on her condition.
They could see Latte quickly looking around. "We are in Venice if you are wondering." Bruno spoke up. Narancia let the woman go to let her face Bruno. Her stance relaxes then tilts her head to the side in confusion. Her face tells them everything - "Why are we here then?" Leone stood up to display his red forehead. "You know by now, you're a traitor like us." He spoke up. Latte's mouth forms an oh then looks at the team. Her eyes held a hint of sadness when there is no sign of Fugo. They caught on as no one has the heart to talk about Fugo right now.
Latte took a seat besides Bruno with the turtle on her lap. Bruno tells them that Passione has already heard of their betrayal. "They're probably going to be coming after us next." He adds. Leone mentions that they don't know of the enemy's abilities. Going unprepared to the ocean will lead to the enemy ambushing them. For now, they have to be patient and be on guard. All of them nod in agreement.
Suddenly, the sight of Mista's sex pistols appear in front of him. "Mista! We're hungry!" Number 2 held his stomach. The others cried out from hunger. Latte watches his stand almost act like children while Mista have to be the parental figure. She almost giggle at the sight. Mista shouts at them to quiet down then asks Bruno if they can stop by a restaurant. Bruno smiles at him, "I guess we need to refill our guts as well."

Sitting between Leone and Bruno at a table, Latte looks at the menu of the restaurant. It seems they are specialized in seafood dishes. "So, what you are going to order?" Mista decides to ask. Latte looks up then points at one dish on the menu. "Linguine alla scoglio." Mista spoke up, "Nice choice." Then he saw her point another dish, "Seafood stew? Which one you wanted or it is a hard choice?" He chuckles under his breath. Number 2 spoke up, "Linguine!" Number six protest, saying that stew is better.
"Oi, no fighting!" Mista spoke up. The others sigh at the sight. Latte tap on the surface of the table to get everyone's attention. She held up the notepad for them to read. Leaning in they read what she wrote - "I want both of them with tiramisu for dessert."
"Ehhhh?!" Mista and his stands screech out. Leone glares at the mute woman, "Oi, don't take advantage of Bucciarati." Her head turns to the silver haired man. "Abbacchio." Bruno spoke up, "It's fine." Leone clicks his tongue then leans back in his seat. Latte is given a smile by Bruno. Just as Latte starts to write, their waiter comes to take their order.
With glass of wine, they begin to eat their food. The men watch Latte consume her first dish then start her second dish. They are shock to see how much Latte could eat. Mista leans next to Narancia to speak in a low voice. "...How she can eat so much?" He asks. Narancia asks another question, "If she eat so much, where does it go?"
Their eyes move towards Latte's chest. Finishing her second dish, Latte has room for dessert. With a smile on her face, Latte enjoys her dessert slowly. Mista returns to his seat, his head low to avoid showing his pink cheeks. "...Adorable." He thought to himself. Leone shakes his head but lets it go for now.
In the midst of eating, Mista brings up the topic of vegetarians. Leone and Narancia joins in while Latte looks down at sex pistols on the table munching on their food. Her eyes narrow at number 3 stealing number 5's food. She puts down her fork to pluck the stolen food from his hand. Number 3 looks up at Latte who gave him a short glare. The pistol shivers as her eyes remind him of a disappointed mother.
Her eyes move to number 5, waving his food to him to take. Number 5 move to her space to take the food. She taps on the table to signal him to sit here. He does what she told him, quietly munching on his food. Latte returns to eating her tiramisu. This gesture didn't go unnoticed by Bruno.
In the background, Narancia and Mista kick down a complete strange with Leone joining in. Latte blinks at the sight. "Hey, that's enough." Bruno puts a stop to their playtime. They return to the table with Giorno standing behind Bruno. He told the group how the boss' power works.
He has the power to make time disappear.
"When we learn the Boss' identity, then we might be able to assassinate him." Bruno told them. Mista looks uncertain, "How are we going to find him then? The boss is the type of guy who gotten rid of any trace of himself." Leone thought for a moment then mention Trish. They look uncertain since they don't want to drag Trish into this especially Narancia.
Latte looks down to see Trish sitting in silence. She heard the whole conversation. Standing up, Trish mentions the boss met her mother in Sardinia. Latte held a frown when she mention the boss abandon her mother after they met. They have their first clue. Trish doesn't care if they do with their father but she wants to know who she comes from. The mute woman left her seat to place a hand on Trish's shoulder, smiling with approval for her bravery. Their moment of peace was interrupted by the shout of Narancia.
"There's an enemy nearby!"

Starlight Antiquities
There is a place in the galaxy that deals in antiquities of all kinds, human and non-human alike. Its inventory of artifacts is colossal as is its inventory of mercs who they hire to acquire any artifact a client may wish that is yet to come into their possession. The ill-reputable business is constantly rubbing against the changing tolerance of the Union's government, and there are many security officers who would love nothing better than to vaporize the whole place with its owners inside. Yet, there are many tasks that nobody can do better, especially in the vastness of deep space where Union law is worth less than the energy needed to display it. One of its jobs involves finding an artifact that may not only hold the future of the human race but may also disturb the balance of the whole galaxy. *** While waiting for the next season of Mandalorian and the Witcher, and rewatching Firefly for the gazillionth of time, I decided to write this space-based series. The series has some litRPG elements in it, but it does not read like one. So, you won't run into any blue screens here. Yet, I wanted to use litRPG to give another dimension to this whole story and make it as unique as possible. This is a work-in-progress. Hope to keep on improving and fixing my mistakes as I go along.
