The Loop Gets Hot Started by: Diablos on Mar 02, '14 03:09

March 1st 5:27a.m., 68 Michigan Ave. Apartment 302, The Loop, Chicago.

Diablos is awakened by a phone call from a familiar number. Putting the receiver to his ear, he lets out a groan. He had a little too much to drink the night before. This wasn't unusual for him, but he was used to sleeping most of the day to rid himself of any hangovers.

A voice boomed on the other end.

"It's Vash. Maple, Totes, and I have made a decision, and we need to speak with you. Meet us at the other place in thirty minutes. Come alone."

After acknowledging he understood, and feeling a little paranoid, he hangs up the phone. Laying his head back down on the pillow, his eyes start to close then shoot back open. There was no way he could be late he thought, and proceeded to get ready. The downtown traffic would be nonexistent at this hour, so he had some time to get ready and shake the cobwebs before leaving.

Once Diablos had showered, dressed, and brushed his teeth and hair, he was on his way. Just as he suspected there were no cars yet on the road and sun was beginning to rise. Clouds close to the horizon refracted an orange and yellow hue into the sky, as if foreshadowing a storm in the near future.

Ten minutes had passed on the road when he arrived. Pulling out his gold pocket watch that his grandfather passed down to his father and then subsequently to him, he sees that he has a few minutes to spare. "Five fifty-seven, still got it." He smiles exiting the car and flicking a cigarette butt on the ground.

Lucky Sevens Casino: The business The Loop uses to launder money, and make executive decisions. He enters through the back door. The first room to the right of the back entrance was where the crew leaders sat to discuss the future; any decisions for the district were usually made here. An oval table was placed in the center of the room. At one end Maple, at the other Totes. Vash was on the side furthest from the door. An empty seat was across from Vash. As Diablos entered the room all three stood up.

"As you know Diablos we have been watching you for some time with great interest. We have not been disappointed," Maple proclaims. "Your time as right hand to Vash has been an eventful one, but a good one to say the least. As you know, we were thinking long and hard about the next auth here in The Loop. We believe the time has come for you to run your own crew. We think you are ready for this step. Do you think you are ready?"

As he listens to Maple's words his eyes grow wide and then focus on her, then on the smiles of Vash and Totes. "I am ready Godmother. It is an honour to accept this prestigious title. I will not let you all down. I will make sure that there isn't a doubt in any of your minds that I was the right choice here today."

Vash walks over and shakes his hand, followed by Maple and Totes.

"Your seat Diablos." Maple says pointing at the only previously empty chair. "Also, what are you going to call yourselves? We have the Timbits and Planet Gunsmoke." Thinking for a moment he says simply. "Inferno."

He walks over to his chair, and stands in front of it. The others follow suit. Then all at once, they sit down.

Diablos you have always been willing to step up anytime I asked for anything from you. You then went on to help Vash with Planet Gunsmoke and you two grew that wonderfully. I am so excited to see you run your own crew and continue to build our wonderful district. I have every faith you will do great.

Peezy waits for his turn to approach the new Boss. Their bloodlines had intertwined for a while now and Peezy couldn't miss the opportunity to congratulate his friend. He did what he always did. Slipped in close enough so he was barely audible to the others around and slipped a cigar and envelope into the mans pocket.

"Congrats brotha, I'm sure everyone around knows what you are capable of and I wish you nothing but the best. Hit me if you need anything." Peezy said before disappearing in the crowd. Like always there was business to be done that he had to tend to.

Ronald joins the crowd that has gathered to pay their respects to Diablos.

This is an exciting moment for all of us in the Loop but especially for you and the members who are lucky enough to call your headquarters home. I know through working with you that you will be an accessible leader that will make time to help every individual member reach their full potential.

Congratulations on a well deserved accomplishment my friend!

After hearing the good news, Penny heads over to Diablos office with a bottle of champagne in tote. She waits as the crowd thins out then walks up to Diablos pops off the top of the bottle and pours two drinks.

"I would like to make a toast, our bloodlines have known each other for only a little while now but what I do know is your a great leader and a good friend. I want to congratulate and wish you the best of luck and a long tenure as leader of the Inferno's even though it is sad to see you go I knew you were destined for bigger and better things."

Walks up to Diablos, smiles, and shakes his hand before clearing his throat to say a few things.


"Diablos, our bloodlines have worked together for a while now. Every time it has been truly an honor, and most memorable times. You are such a hard worker, and have surely earned this. Thank you for giving me the privilege to work along side you. I look forward working with you, and seeing what your bloodline accomplishes this time around bud!"

As he slowly makes his way back over to Diablos, he reaches into his lab coat and pulls out a bottle of fine honey whiskey with a note tied around the neck of the bottle. Professor looks at Diablos and winks then makes his way back to seat. Diablos, looks down and peeks at the note attached as it reads. "All the best, your buddy. P.F."

After a long night of celebration back at her family's headquarters, BlackWidow splashes her face with water, trying to wake up. Her eyes widen in surprise as she looks at the clock and registers the time, checking her appearance before skipping down the steps and grabbing her coffee on the way out. Settling in her car for her trip to Chicago, she reassures herself that Diablos knows her well, and will expect her to be fashionably late.

She pulls up to the address he sent her and stands outside her car, taking in her friend's new headquarters. She smiles to herself as she thinks about the things her anscestors had written about his lineage. BlackWidow grabs his present from the backseat and starts up the steps, joining the people surrounding Diablos and his trusted hands. 

"I hear congratulations are in order," she begins. "I told you I'd be here!" Grinning, she pulls him close and hugs him before handing him a bottle of Johnny Walker black label whiskey, wrapped in a ribbon. "I think I should just take stock in this company at this point with as often as my lineage seems to gift it," she laughs. "What can I say, your lineage is so often in bold because you work hard and you're a great leader. I know that you will put in the same time and effort, compassion and understanding into your family that you always have, and will make your anscestors proud. Don't forget who you are, I know you won't. Chicago has an even brighter future with you on board."

BlackWidow nods to ProfessorFarnsworth and Sting and smiles before addressing them. "Congratulations to you both as well on your new positions. I've heard many good things about the both of you and look forward to watching your family flourish."
