On an early Friday morning in Detroit, SpaceCowboy awakens from his slumber earlier than his normal routine. With a grin on his face and energy to get the day started, he gets out of bed and grabs the phone. Space makes a quick call to LilacDelaney, laughing as he hangs up. After taking approximately forty minutes to get himself dressed and ready, he hears a knock at the door. Letting Lilac in the door, they both take a seat before getting down to business.

Lilac, as you know by now, you've been chosen to fight and take the reigns over the Black Bottom district of Detroit. In this, you will fight toe-to-toe against the opposing Godfather. If you succeed, you will assume the Godfather role and take over the district, while working under myself to continue to make this city thrive into something even greater. I know without a doubt you will do great things. You truly deserve this and I'm cheering for you! This is nothing to take lightly, and I ask you to aim high and fight until the end. I wish you the best of luck out there, be safe!

Lilac swiftly pulls her gun from under her shirt and fires a bullet, landing dead center of a marijuana plant Space was growing, twenty feet from the living room. She gives an amused smile as she cleans off her gun, not showing an ounce of fear over the duel in her future.

Now go out there and show those bastards what you've got! I'll be expecting a call shortly knowing you're alive and the deed is done.

Knowing what must be done, they stand and he gives Lilac a quick hug before she takes her leave into battle.

Lilac emerges from the battleground, her clothes spattered with the blood of a man that she had never encountered, but whom had always incited bloodlust in her veins. The former Godfather of Black Bottom lay dead and she was now on her way to inform Godfather SpaceCowboy of another victory for Detroit.

As she arrived at his office door, she took a moment to catch her breath and smoothed her shirt before knocking. The Godfather of Detroit summoned her in; his relief that she was not only alive, but had secured the future of Black Bottom was clear as he handed her a cigarette. She accepted, sat down and waited for him to speak.

Those are some curious stains on your blouse, Lilac. What have you been up to this afternoon? he said, winking.

She grinned, then shrugged her shoulders before inhaling deeply from her cigarette.

Oh, nothing. Spilled a little wine is all. I also got rid of that problem we had lingering over us for the last few weeks. He won't be singing for his supper, let's put it that way. I've told Mudkip he can have at the corpse as a gift; poor kid's been surviving off thug meat for too long now. Shall we go and greet the others with the news?

*****************************************************************************************************

A short time later, Lilac stood before the members of Detroit alongside Godfather SpaceCowboy, glass of rum in one hand and a cigarette in the other.

Ladies and gentlemen of Detroit.

It can be said with certainty that, in this world of ours, we are all born and raised with a certain level of ambition. Without that ambition, that need to strive for achievement, we betray not only ourselves and our legacy, but our families and cities alike.

However, despite the inevitable fantasy that we all like to indulge in, I never once imagined that I would one day stand here as Godmother addressing my own district. The reality of it has not quite been absorbed yet. In a way, I hope I never do absorb it, for it is something I never wish to take for granted. No soul in this world is immortal, least of all myself, and likewise a person can only enjoy power so long as those around him or her are willing to accept that as their reality. I'm honoured that I have been privileged with this success, more so than I can illustrate with a few words; what's more, I'm honoured that I stand here now surrounded by such an incredibly loyal extended family. Our city is remarkable, our bond unbreakable and our future brighter by the day.

I cannot allow myself to celebrate without first pointing out that, without several others, I would not be where I am now. It really is that simple. Godfather SpaceCowboy remains my superior and a man that I look up to in many ways; I will continue to serve him to the very best of my ability under my renewed and increased responsibility as Godmother. Don Mudkip and Don Raoul_Silva have provided me with indispensable support, as did their fathers and without that, I would not be here, nor would Dalle Ceneri. And, of course, everyone else with whom I have enjoyed longstanding friendships, or indeed struck up new ones. All of these things, however little, mean a lot to me. The smallest things always do.

Finally, and this may surprise some, but I believe it important to give dues to those who helped me in my earliest days despite circumstance; that said, I bow my head in respect to the late Don Timothy Petrov and Godfather Squidmaster alike. They form an integral part of my history in this thing of ours and I will not forget that it was these men who gave me my first step up the ladder of our world.

And now, I am going to go and swim naked in a sea of rum with ten virgins.

Arrivaderci, Mafiosi!

Mudkip had accompanied his Don to the godfathers mansion to discuss final business with the retiring man and while she went inside to discuss business with the man Mudkip wasn't allowed in due to security reasons and he had known in his gut that something was going to go bad.. He had expected it when it had happened, a single gun shot in the mansion of the old man just then so he rushed out of his car with several Dalle Ceneri members and killed off the front guards that seemed to be the only security the old man had around anymore

'Lilac?! Lilac are you alive in there?!' Mudkip had the group of soldiers with him search the building to no avail until Mudkip came upon the Godfathers office and he noticed a slight difference, the old man had a gunshot through his head and now his Don was no more.

'Don Lilac.. Or should I say.. Godmother Lilac, its an honor godmother.'

Mudkip bows to his new Godmother and he knew that she would run Black Bottom the same way she ran Dalle Ceneri, with respect and commitment

'Lets go back to the HQ and tell the soldiers! Beers on me today, miss.'

Mudkip smiled and got back into the car parked outside by an escort of Dalle Ceneri soldiers and rode there new Godmother to safety back home

EaforAA makes his way and listens and can't help but to feel happy for the city. Godmother Delaney has a nice ring to it and is a great person to take over as Godmother of Blackbottom.

This is truely a great day. Godmother Delaney is very deserving and will make the district of Blackbottom a excellent place for fellow mobsters to work out of. Congrats to the Godmother, this is a very good day for our great city.

EaforAA grabs a beer and heads to the back to blend in and enjoy a few drinks.

We have spoke in private, congrats where given, respect was shown, it was a good conversation. Regardless of that, I needed to come out here and tell our 4 cities how much I approve of this moment. Godmother Delaney is most deserving, and her people benifit greatly from her leadership. Besides that, she's an absolute treat of a lady to know. She sets the bar high, and we all strive to reach it. May your reign as Godmother be long and fruitful!

"Godmother Lilac, that sounds perfect. Exactly what it should be! Since the first day I arrived on these shores you and your family have been nothing but great too me. I'm proud to say that I was part of your family, it was a huge honour and I'll never forget it. Nobody deserves this more than you. I'm proud of you and I know Detroit is proud of you. Thank you for everything  you're a star and Detroit will be having a huge celebration tonight."

TheHumanCentipede crawls towards the newly appointed Godmother of Black Bottom, dragging along with him a person sown to his own bottom by the mouth, with a third following behind that person. They labor towards her in unison, wailing in agony until they reach their destination before LilacDelaney.

Congrats on your new role, Godmother. it's a role I think you'll do great in. In a wasteland mostly void of personality, you shine. My grandfather spoke highly of you as well. Said you had great feet. I'm not nearly as consumed by women's feet or footware as he was, but I tend to agree with him. I wish you and both your feet the very best of luck and as always, my door is open to you if you ever want to chat or need to talk business. Salut my Friend.

TheHumanCentipede crawls away crying in pain as indigestion sets in. This can only end badly for the rest of its' attached pieces.

Congratulations lilac. I'm really happy for you. You have done a treat job!!!

Congratulations Lilac!

I have really enjoyed working under you and I feel very lucky and honored to one of the few who still can do that. I just know that you will be a great Godmother, again congratulations Lilac you deserve it.

Congratulations Lilac.

Becoming a Godmother is an exceptionally great achievement, which we all know you put in an extreme amount of work and effort to make the proud city of Detroit an even stronger and safer place for us all to live and prosper. I am proud to be a member of Detroit and the Dalle Ceneri.

Congratulations Godmother Delaney.

In a time when false praise is abundant, it can be hard to distance the true compliments from the false salutations. Let me assure you that the well wishes and congratulations I offer you this fine day are not only genuine, but also fully deserved.

Your hard work, both inside your family walls and when pounding our streets improving them with your very presence, does not go unnoticed and nor should it go without comment. At a time when ranks can't even begin to advise on the true measure of a (wo)man, it's great to see someone who rises above the call of duty and applies their own staunch fundamental beliefs to the role. Kudos ma'lady, kudos.

Congratulations Godmother Delaney!

This is a tremendous achievement, one that I have to applaud even though we come from different cities. I hope everything goes well for you.

Godmother Lilac Delaney! Congratulations!

It's a great day for us. Detroit celebrates! I'm sure you will do an excellent job (as usual) and no one deserves it more than you, Lilac.

Beers on Mudkip today!

Well you found out my plan for world domination and raised the bar. You deservedly have taken over the reigns as Godmother of Black Bottom, although I'm almost positive that 'A Godmother Emerges From Black Bottom' is sitting on a shelf in my shop.

In all honesty I can't think of anything that makes me happier. It was an honour to get to know you all that time ago, and when the shit hit the fan you stepped into the breach and held us together. Dalle Ceneri, is one of the best crews any of my family has ever had the pleasure to be invlved with, and I'm just happy you allowed me to come along for the ride. So I'll see you back here in 210 days then?

Congratulations on your new position, Godmother Delaney. I have always been a fan of yours (and a part-time lover), as you know, and the way you conduct your business in This Thing. You have always been professional and delightful in interactions, and your street presence is one to be admired and revered. To say you deserve this promotion is an understatement, as I can think of no other woman who deserves this honor more.

Once more, well done Lilac. Here's to a bright and successful future for you and yours!
