The Mountains Still Stand; The City Remains Windy Started by: SiriusBlack on Feb 01, '15 16:35

Reeling from the events of the last few days, Sirius Black flies out on his Cleansweep broomstick from his HQ in Old City District to South Philly. Disembarking at the place where Whatsername's HQ stood, now bullet-riddled, torched and boarded up. Not too far south of Whatsername's HQ, Utopia's HQ did not look any better. Sirius could not believe it came to this; these losses did not need to occur. This happened at the hands of 'Those Who Should Not Be Mentioned' - it is said that the Ministry of Magic has put a spell on the name. 

In the First Wizard War between 'The Order of The Mountains' and 'Those Who Should Not Be Mentioned'; The Order of The Mountains were assisted by 'The Windy City Warlords', coming together as 'Team Good Guys', to take down Those Who Should Not Be Mentioned. CurtisTheNewGuy (GRHS), Utopia (GRHS) and Ajani hit @Kyubey, @Amethyst, @TepidDelucci and @LF with the Avada Kedavra Curse killing them where they stood. The war had begun and was immediately swayed in favour of Team Good Guys. It was a long and hard-fought war by both sides; Cantillion fought valiantly for Those Who Should Not Be Mentioned, but alas it wasn't enough. Team Good Guys had taken down Those Who Should Not Be Mentioned. Victory was ours! 

Don Curtis had been given the blessing to take the mantle of Godfather - Chairman in New York, Don Tetley had been given the blessing by Godmother Whatsername to remain as head of Old City District. Don Utopia took on a crew of his own in South Philly. The Order of The Mountains was doing their part to rebuild. The Catfather of Team Good Guys, Ajani, set out to rebuild Chicago. The other Chicago Godfathers gave their blessings for Ajani to become Chairman. Don Kelly_Kapowski became Godmother of North Side; Don Aliens became her underboss. Ajani, Kelly Kapowski and Spunky gave their blessings to Louis-Man, Bunk-Moreland and Transporter respectively to begin rebuilding the Motor City. 

Just like Lord Voldermort's Death Eaters, some of Those Who Should Not Be Mentioned sought solace in the HQs of Team Good Guys by claiming to be under the Imperius Curse. They smiled with us; they ate with us, some even helped (Inertia) in the First Wizard War. Although we had reservations about these individuals, we believed in redemption; the children of the fallen did not to have to account for the sins of their fathers.

Things had been going well, everyone was doing well. Purses were being snatched; stores were being held up; bums being shot. However, it is clear as day that Godmother Inertia became jealous of Godmother Whatsername and began to abhor Godfather Tetley for building his harem, BlackBetty being the crown jewel in the harem, without even considering her. This weakened her resolve; she became susceptible to the kin of Kyubey and Anomaly. Whispers in her ear: "if you shoot Godmother Whatsername, Tetley will look to you". That was all Godmother Inertia needed to hear. Those Who Should Not Be Mentioned had other motives, they wanted to take over the Ministry of Magic. 

On 27th January 1920, Inertia - lovestruck - shot Godmother Whatsername then Don TheNewGuy. Chelsea bought out of her family and shot Don Utopia. The Order had suffered some heavy losses; Team Good Guys had suffered losses. Those members that claimed to be under the Imperius Curse returned to their leaders, more out of fear than respect. The Second Wizard War had begun; Team Good Guys united! 

People started showing their true colours; CatBug and Kolyma decided to continue the fight of their father's. V had turned his back on his father's district. Misguided and scared souls, who sought safety in the HQs of all those who made up Team Good Guys, were providing protection for Those Who Must Not Be Named. Being the secret keeper for secret keepers. All this meant was Team Good Guys would have to work harder, but victory was all that mattered. 

Godmother Inertia's secret keeper had failed and Don Aliens unleashed a fiery green beam from his wand, this could only be the killing curse. Inertia disintegrated on contact. Whatsername had been avenged. This was followed by MarcusAurelius gacing our dearest SwampSong and promptly retiring, the actions of a man who is brave enough to deal with the repercussions of his acts? I wouldn't say so. But who am I to complain? It was just one less person to deal with. 

In true Jono fashion, Don HubertCapone lost his fort when CatBug (a known animagus) managed to dodge his BGs and kill him. Sadly, this was always on the cards. Moments later CatBug had been dropped by The BigBlack Cannon, however, Chelsea and Kolyma still stood and something had to change. 

CatBug's last words had alerted the Ministry of Magic, Those Who Should Not Be Mentioned were mentioned. Rather than the Minister of Magic, Squishy Shacklebolt, sending him to Azkaban he had the Dementors give Kolyma their Kiss. We now only had to look out for Chelsea, who loss her protection when she decided to attack McSteamy but not before she killed @RaoulSilva. Kelly Kapowski ended the anarchy. Team Good Guys were victorious; it remained bittersweet. 

Sins of the father (no I'm not referring to DeadlySin) carried onto the kin of Those Who Should Not Be Mentioned, jealously of the wonderfully curated harem and misguided loyalty led to a day of bloodshed. However, Team Good Guys have shown what can be done where loyalty and respect are paramount. 

Those Who Should Not Be Mentioned and their followers caused us serious losses; no matter how much we build and move on these losses can never be replaced, but The Mountains still stand and Chi will forever remain windy!

Godfather Ajani

Godfather Curtis

Godmother Kelly Kapowski

Godmother Maria

 V had turned his back on his father's district. 

I would have done that too, if my district was pretty much stolen from my still warm hands.

Report Post Tip

The Rock is sorry he wasn't around on that day. The Rock is sorry he was unable to stand toe to toe with Curtis, Spunky and his unfortunate sounding name, Tetley and all the other greats from Philadelphia, the Rocks home from home and New York his adopted home. The Rock understands that Chicago was heavily involved too, but alas the Great one knows no one in Chicago. None the less, the Rock would have been proud to stand by their sides, smacking the yellow of jabroni's teeth, laying the smacketh down with one big right after another. Avenging the people, avenging the fallen, checking steaming stinking piles of monkey crap into the SmackDown Hotel. Just as he's always done, hour after hour, day after day, week after week, laying the smacketh down.

It was a hard earned victory, snatched from the jaws of defeat, an almost perfectly executed plan of attack. Perfect save for just one thing, the power and organisation of "Team good guys" or as The Rock prefers to know them as, "Team: Just Bring it". The Rock's own pappy was there that day, doing what he could in the background to secure victory, laying down his very own life for the cause. The Brahma Bull is not afraid to admit that when his very own father fell, the Great one shed a tear. So thank you SiriusBlack. The Rock thanks you from the bottom of his heart to the top of his head to the bottom of Inertia's decomposing ass for this tribute to the valiant few, the fallen comrades, and the glorious victors.
