Kharon and Hank_Moody dropped by one of the local pubs to meet the locals and perhaps calm them down.
A few days earlier, during an unforeseen event, Paradise lost a crew leader.
Together they had been cleaning up the streets during the aftermath, not the nicest work, but it had to be done.

"We have a problem, Hank!" Kharon said looking up. "The Twisted Nature Headquarters is still available. It has suffered some damage, but it can be rebuilt within days. What you think about giving Muzzles a chance to build up his family here?"
 

Hank_Moody grabbed behind his ears, stretched his arms above his head and answered.
"Kharon, I am really happy you bring this up. Muzzles used to be Right Hand to DonShaw, and DonShaw was taken from us too early.
I know they worked well together and Muzzles is actually the perfect person to start his family."

Kharon smiled and turned around. "Two whiskeys, please." The bartender, recognizing those faces, immediately reached for the whiskey bottle and poured in two glasses.
"Well, that is settled then. I already assumed that you would agree with me about this so I've already asked for Muzzles to join us for a glass and talk things over."

At that moment Muzzles entered the pub, looking left and right and also behind him to see if there were no strangers in the pub that could be a next rogue. 
"Relax Muzzles, you're among friends here." Kharon said smiling at him. "Please come join us." Hank_Moody added.
Both Kharon and Hank_Moody smiled seeing the rest appearing on Muzzles face again.

"Sorry Boss, I am just trying to protect you guys."

"Don't worry, only members are allowed in." Kharon said while leaning forward... "Now what we want to talk to you about your last position as Right Hand to DonShaw's family and since he got wacked this weekend Hank and I have been discussing who would be able to fill the gap in Paradise. Your name came up as the natural successor, so here we are sitting, and want you to take up the next level and create your family in Paradise Las Vegas. Is this something you are able to accept and live up to?"

Muzzles stood up and started to tap dance, one of his favorite dance styles. He jumped a few times before he answered.
"Of course, I want to create my family Godfather Kharon and Don Hank_Moody. Of course, I will need your guidance and assistance in order to be able to mantle this task but I will do it. I am honored with this trust and I will not let you down."

Then he rushed out of the doors and still Kharon and Hank_Moody could hear him singing some lines of a happy song.

It was a rare sight to experience a quiet afternoon in these parts of Paradise, a blue collar neighborhood where people get up as early as the sun. 
Muzzles had a hard time holding back his smile when he stepped out from the meeting, he noticed the car that was dispatched to his address to pick him up.
He nodded at the driver while entering. He knew that this was a very special moment and how excited the guys would be when he told them.

Two of Muzzles bodyguards stepped out of the restaurant and hurried to meet Muzzles's car and welcome him.

"Has everyone arrived?" Muzzles asked 
"Si, Signore"

Without wasting any momentum, Muzzles asked the gang to gather up to share the news
"Friends, our time has come. Godfather Kharon and Don Hank gave me their blessings to continue the work of our late boss DonShaw."

He takes a moment to let the news sink in...
"We were known as the Zips, when we arrived, we set our mark on how we were doing things. This has been recognized and we will continue that journey that we started with DonShaw."

Muzzles ask the children of the late DonShaw and AdrianaVixen to join him and lifts his glass and turns towards the crew.
"Salut"

DonShaw_ Had been Lurking in the Shadows of a dive bar in the back streets of Paradise when he received a call asking to meet at his fathers old headquarters.

He jumps in a taxi and heads straight there, getting out of the taxi he looks at the glorious looking building in front of him and makes his way inside and upstairs,

Arriving at his fathers office he looks around at the bullet holes still in the wall and remembers running about the office when his father was trying to conduct his business, these memories are broken by the sounds of Muzzles tap dancing and singing,

Turning to Muzzles he says " My friend I know my father thought highly of you along with Adrianna, he couldn't of chose the best people to have by his side, and I know he would be happy seeing you take his place and carry on his work here in Vegas, I will do everything I can to help"

He walks over to his fathers desk and pulls something from the draw "my father would want you to have this" he hands over is fathers Shiny Black Colt 1908 with the words Natura Contorta Engraved in Silver on the handles.

Congratulations Muzzles! Always great to see new faces donning a new shiny bold suit in this thing of ours!

I look forward to seeing what you have in store for the great city of Vegas!

It is a great ceremony that Tobias will attend. He dressed formal with brown shiny pantofel. He saw two of his bestfriends Kharon and Hank_Moody authing the very special person for him. Holding a glass of wine he walks to both of them to have a little bit chit chat.

"Another ceremony again ma brothers, both of you made a right choice, I can even guarantee he will do a great rebuild of previous DonShaw's headquarter. He is just a symbol of perfection to me"

He raises his glass and walk through both of them, then walk towards Muzzles

"Ha! Muzzy Muzzy Muzzles! Look at you now, a fucking well dressed Don, remember the first day you in here when I approached you, I realized that you are a wonderkid that will shine in this thing of ours on the first sight, and I didn't wrong about it. A big congratulation to you, I am very proud of you, here is some gift for you"

Tobias reaches his own pocket and takes out a 24 carat diamond gold ring, and hands it to Muzzles.

"Take this, I believe its a lucky token, bring this wherever you go"

congratulations muzzles

from what I have seen you have always been a decent mobster and well liked. Now your recruiting tactics from your previous family were not the best form (saying hi to every mobster who shows up) so I hope you can clean that up but all in all you seem well fit for this.

I wish you the best of luck and hope you prosper!

Congrats and Good luck!

Congrats Muzzles!

Ah yes, excellent choice of leadership. During one rogue that was attacking Las Vegas, this man was seen by multiple people to be hunting down Durdens, harmless thugs roaming the streets, instead of trying to take down the rogue himself. The only reason he's alive to take a crew is because he made sure he was protected from the rogue Loveable but failed to ensure his own CL was protected, one of the primary jobs of a right hand man.

Excellent choice indeed. 

Don Muzzles, Congratulations on your own crew!

I have always appreciated you as a crewmate and i am sure you will be a great CL. Looking forward to having you as a neighbour ;)

To Muzzles!

raises glass

Congratulations Don Muzzles. Best wishes on setting up your own crew. I'm looking forward to making some business deals with you. 

Ruh Roh Raggy.

Kharon made street appearance. Looks like some shit will be going down soon!

Puffs cigarette and grins and generally acts as mafiosi do.

hears the phone ringing and sets down her her lipstick as she was just putting the finishing touches on her face to go out for the evening. She picks up the phone placing it to her ear and murmurs in her purring accented voice "Hello?" She hears Billies voice "We got a meeting with Muzzles get down here as soon as possible." She nods as she replies "I will be right there I just happened to finish getting dressed anyway. See you shortly." Then hangs up the phone on her vanity and rises smoothly slipping on her heels and walks downstairs calling out to her body guard "Marco we must go now. Muzzles has called a meeting. You know where to go." Then reaches down and adjusts the gun she is carrying in a belly band under her long black backless spaghetti strapped formal. Finding places to hide guns in formal wear is a chore in and of itself but the belly band works, so long as she has a backless dress or one with a high thigh slit and this dress just happened to have both. Then checks her knife sheaths attached to her garters. She is ready to go now. Things have been crazy lately with the rogues and the losses. She takes deep breath to center herself as the pangs of sorrow hit her thinking of DonShaw and AdriannaVixen. She gives her self a brisk shake and see's Marco is ready to go now as well and gives him a nod. He exits and looks around carefully looking for anyone who would wish to harm the one in his care. Seeing no one he gestures back to Cassandra that all is clear and she comes forward and they walk briskly to the car. He opens the door for her and she slips in gracefully crossing her legs and Marco gets in to drive.

The drive doesn't take long from her home but to make sure they aren't followed Marco takes her in a round about way watching closely for a tail but no one follows them. In thirty minutes they arrive to the meeting and Marco escorts Cassandra inside and at the door she says to him "Keep watch on the outside. Yell if anything happens. I will let you know what you need to know from the meeting." Marco nods and goes back outside to guard as Cassandra straightens her outfit then walks to where the crew was meeting. She takes a seat and patiently waits for the rest to gather. She nods at each as they arrive and then she sees Muzzles walk in and smiles at him seeing the grin on his face. Something had made him very happy. 

The meeting starts and is very simple and to the point. Muzzles announces that the new crew is started and feels her smile go into a huge grin as well. She raises her glass and replies to his toast "Salut" then takes a sip of her drink. She is very happy that the crew is back together and that the journey will continue as planned. She rises and walks over to Muzzles and says to him "Congratulations Boss. You let me know what I can do to help you in anything and I will see it done to the best of my ability." then nods her head to him in respect. She hears all the others giving congratulations save one and her typically warm sparkling blue eyes turn to frigid ice as she turns to the one mouthing off about the durdens and how Muzzles wasn't helping and her accent thickens as she growls out in her velvety voice "He more than did his part! Where were you? Did you do any better than anyone else? I sincerely doubt it." she sneers at him getting more upset she starts speaking in her native Italian as she approaches him "Chi pensi che tu sia stronzo?!" ((who do you think you are asshole)) She doesn't recognize this guy and remembers herself and her English "You are not part of this familia, you do not belong here. You have no voice here and no opinion worth listening to. There is the door dumbass, don't let it hit you on the way out." her cold eyes heating up and sparking in anger as she watches him closely daring him to make a stupid move or try to start more shit. She will not tolerate anyone disrespecting her family she doesn't care who they are. She has been told by Antonio her loyalty was one of her best traits. She has given Muzzles the same loyalty that she gave DonShaw and Adrianna. However her temper....that was one of her worst traits.

I was finishing up some business in Summerlin for a good friend.  Cassandra had called me about a very important meeting taking place at the old headquarters.  I rushed home change clothes and headed to the headquarters.

When I arrived I heard a lot of laughter, the clanging of glasses and the announcement that Muzzles will be heading up his own family.  He would be using the old Twisted Nature’s Headquarters.  I thanked God for that because I still had my shipment of Moonshine hid in the basement. I sat at the table where a drink was waiting for me.  I lifted my glass and turned to the Muzzles

Congratulations on a job well done Muzzles

Believe in yourself because we believe in you. Have faith in your abilities to lead us because we have faith in you.  Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers you cannot be successful or truly lead us.  With all confidence you will be a great leader.

Everyone toasted, I took a couple of sips from my glass then ran to the basement to check on my shipment.
