"It would not be cowardice to leave for a time but only helping destiny so you can see your son back one day. Your son left, he is not a coward either but he hoped to see you again, not see your grave. Adele is not at fault. I proposed that solution to her. She cares for you, she is the closest person you have with you now. Don’t you care about her? She will suffer as well if you stay."
"Waaah, I don't understaaaand. The potion I gave him should have put him to sleep..."
Vanessa appears half dressed in her dress and no leg gear. "Then we will resort to the classic. Knocking him out." The witch goes to the old man and sighs. "You old fart. We are trying to help you. But if you keep nagging at us like this and I will be very angry." The witch says to the old man and then resorts to a classic hit in the head, enough force to knock him out.

"Then she can leave!" The old man spat, furious. "I never asked her to stay anyway. Take her with you, since you're the one who proposed all of this. I want to see my son again and the only way that is going to happen is if I stay here to wait for his return. If I die, so be it! It's the natural order of things for children to outlive their parents anyway."
Viola felt bad. She didn’t care to be chased away but she didn’t want Adele to be chased away as well. She didn’t really know how to calm down the old man… She knew he was very sad and worried for his son… So she stayed frozen for a while, doing nothing and saying nothing but her gaze looked sad even if she tried to hide it. Adele was now crying.
"Waaah, I don't understaaaand. The potion I gave him should have put him to sleep..."
Viola felt even more guilty for the maid’s problems, she wondered if she should tell monsieur Vito that she was a witch and she forced Adele to do it, not only proposed it. But somehow she still feared to reveal her malfestation. Mostly now since she would also pretend to manipulate someone by magic which she wasn’t really doing. She could be accused for some witchcraft she never did. But she could still run away… Vanessa could as well… Adele’s life was here… even if she may be safer elsewhere… She took a step toward the old man and spoke once more:
"I… forced your maid to do it… She didn’t want to…"
But before she could say any more, Vanessa appeared and knocked the old man out. Viola stayed mute once more, looking at the radical way Vanessa used on monsieur Vito in surprise.
"Euh…"
She really didn't see this coming.

Vito crumpled like a sack of potatoes with the blow, flopping backwards onto the floor as Adele and Viola stared in shock, the room silent for a moment in the seconds after the thud of the impact. Viola's tiny 'Euh..." seemed to shake Adele out of her surprise, and she slowly scooted around, nervously trying to get to Vito without getting within range of Vanessa's fists. "I-is he dead?"

After the initial shock, Viola went to the old man as well. She tried to remain calm since it served nothing to panic. Beside Vanessa must know what she was doing... But monsieur Vito was old and he fell down so fast... She took the old man's pulse and tried to get some sign that he was alive.

"I-is he dead?"
Vanessa giggles. "Yes he is alive. You clearly haven't seen me on a bad day. I am rather.. Violent with attacks. But of course I know he is old so I restrained my hit. So don't worry." The witch says while a cute smile appears on her face. Teaching them both not to anger Vanessa or they might get more then just a hit across the head. But might worse.. "Forgive me Madona Adele. I am sorry for doing that to the old fart."

Adele huffs, her anger overriding her fear for a moment once she checks Vito's breathing and finds him to be alive. "Fine. I suppose it was necessary, in this case... Still, that was Violent...!"

Still looking at the old man, Viola asked:
"Then what's the plan? We leave with him unconscious? We can't move a wounded person..."

Vanessa only shrugs her shoulders. She really doesn't care about violence.
"Then what's the plan? We leave with him unconscious? We can't move a wounded person..."
Vanessa sighs. "Lets get a horse. I can tie him to either Adele's saddle or mine."

Viola looked at Vanessa with a still interrogating expression.
"And where do we go? Somewhere near here or we go all the way to Florence or Rome?"
She finished her question while looking at Adele as well before she added while almost speaking only to herself:
"I always have the feeling the son is in Rome. And maybe he could calm down his father."

"Whaaat? Tie him to a saddle? No, no, please, give me a moment, we have a few florins, let me go buy a cart or something we can lay him down in, that has to be a better solution..." Adele frets, nervously looking between Vanessa and Viola.

Vanessa smiles at the nervous Adele. "Okay. Lets go get that cart. But let me buy it. I am carrying more florins then I should." The witch says as she goes to her scythe and it has a small bag tied to it, containing the florins that she had. She didn't care if she was using her money. As her mother said, sharing is a good deed. Vanessa walks back to Adele and gives her the extra florins. "Here. This should help you in case you need a little bit more."

"Here. This should help you in case you need a little bit more."
Viola stops Vanessa from handing the money to Adele by softly pushing away her hand.
"I think it would be better if you go buy that cart maman. Adele and I will stay here and prepare things for the trip, like blankets, food and all."

Adele looked between Viola and Vanessa, blinking. "Um, yes... maybe... I do know where all the essentials we should take are..." She pauses, not really willing to outright contradict Vanessa.

Vanessa smiles. "Okay Viola. I will go get the cart. So I will be right back." The witch says to them both and she goes walking off to go get the cart. Leaving Adele and Viola to set the stuff up so they can leave.

Viola looked at Vanessa going away then she turned her head toward Adele. The maid was really nervous. For many reasons. And Viola thought that she probably won’t be willing to accompany them all the way to some city, she would be too nervous and scared. If they go, they probably will go to somewhere around.
The seer also thought that Adele, in her state of panic and remorse may have alerted some people if she went to buy the cart, some people who would have accused the two witches and Adele of attacking monsieur Vito, so she didn't want to let her leave alone. Beside Viola wanted to speak to the maid who may want to check on monsieur Vito as well. But Viola first tried to calm Adele.
"You’re in shock. With all that happened lately. Just sit there and try to relax a little. My mother may be a little rough but she have good intentions. She just lived many hardships in her life and often acts brashly. But like she said, she won’t hurt you. And I won’t either. I admit I may have pushed you to do something rash that maybe you are regretting now. But we acted to save monsieur Vito and your life. We do want to help you get away from here when the soldiers will come back. But it's your choice first. Just say what you want and we will respect it."
Viola looked at the unconscious old man and sighed.
"Now the problem is how to make him not be angry at you."
