Notes was busy quietly taking note's regarding the production of the business when OneEyedJack walked up. "Hey Boss." He said as he looked up. "Note's I wan't to talk to you about Manhattan."  Notes put down his pencil, "Well sure what's up?" She looks at him seriously. "Well... you know we are moving operations to Manhattan, and we are busting at the seams here in The Miscreants, so you will be setting up operations under me to help us expand. Now I know you love it here with me but this is something that has to be done and you are the man for the job. What do you say?"

"Well of course, if this is what the district needs then I am happy to do all I can to help with the expansion. My only wishes were for me to serve you and this city to the fullest, providing in any and every way possible. I'm happy that I am able to serve and protect the great people of this city. In the short time I've been here in NY we have been through a lot together. It has been quite the journey and I have thoroughly enjoyed it, so if this city needs another degenerate to run a crew then I'm all in."

OneEyedJack and many of The Miscreant's all gathered around Notes later that night as they call the attention of their fellow mobsters within the world. All of the mobsters of the world and the differing cities and districts are invited to toast with Manhattan New York on this evening in celebration. Everybody who is anybody joins together with glasses of scotch to toast to the beginning of a new home being formed within the Manhattan district of New York.

and with that

The Degenerate's

were born...

John was smiling.

Why wouldn’t he be? After all he found himself to be surrounded by all his friends and family in celebration!

And what a day it had been. Not only had John received a promotion to Boss by OneEyedJack, the city of New York, and the district of Manhattan in particullar had so much to celebrate today.

With OneEyedJack’s recent move to Manhattan, she had quickly decided the time was right to expand her operations. And once that decition was made, she was even quicker to point her finger towards Notes, and offer him to set up shop alongside her in Manhattan.

As John tapped his glass before raising it, the constant buzz from people conversating and enjoying themself quickly stopped.

‘Notes, my brother, I wanted to take the opportunity to formally congratulate you with your new position!’

’I’m confident that you’ll operation will grow fast, and that you’ll be unvaluable to OneEyedJack and the district of Manhattan. Especially as we now aim to build Manhattan into a prosperous district!’

’So Salute, tonight we celebrate!’

Termination could not help but hear commotion going on in the Miscreants HQ, near Notes study.  Being nosy he decides to look. 

"Aye motherfucker where they taking all your shit". I stand in the doorway looking puzzled
"Jackie gave me the green light, time for me to write my book" notes continues to put his items into boxes. 
Termination runs towards OneEyedJack's Sanctuary of peace and gives 3 soft knocks. 
"Jackie, it's me open up!"
The door is swung open, OEJ standing there with a look of disapproval.
"Jackie where the hell is Notes going?"
Jackie shakes her head and laughs,  "How you are always the last one to find out is beyond me, Notes is leaving he will be setting up his own headquarters right here in Manhattan".
"Shiiiiiiiiiiitttt , he better not forget his book" I stammer wondering how many people knew before me. 
"And that's not all , you will be leaving too, he will need help and that is your responsibility" OEJ hands me a duffle bag with some of my stuff in it. "I had someone stop by your place and pick some things up"
She hands me the bag as i go frantic looking in it hoping they did not forget my guns
"Jackie, the guns?!"
"Relax, they were already packed and are in your new HQ" she laughs , reaching her hand out as I give her a hug. "Thank you Jackie for everything, you have been there for me through it all and for that I owe with my life. 
Termination picks the bag up and walks back towards notes study. Where he found an empty room and no Notes.

Where did this motherfucker go? I mumbled to myself . I hear more commotion downstairs so I decide to go look . Notes was saying his good-bye's to everyone in the family . When he looked to me he laughed knowing how crazy this all seemed. He heads out the HQ door onto the Manhattan streets. Being one step behind to the right of Notes I scanned our surroundings to make sure things were ok, because if a motherfucker act silly he gets left. 

Blowed just getting out of a cab coming from Brooklyn to join with his old friend. He sees Termination and Notes walking down the street.

"HEy! wait for me, .  Here I come"

He yells as he scoots towards the two. He looks over at one of his thugs.

"Lets go, and tell slick to bring the car around that was left for us over there in the alley."

Blowed finally reaches the two.

"whats good fellas. I'm ready. lets do this.  I got slick bringing the car around now."

Man what a night.  Stopped by The Degenerate’s new headquarters to congratulate my man Notes and ended up dragging my ass out of there.   Every time I turned around someone was pouring me a shot to toast Notes.  Every time I downed one someone else wanted to say something and there went another toast.   I kept telling myself I will do the next toast and get the hell out of here. 

After about 5 or 6 more shots it was my turn.  By then all could do was to stagger up to Notes, shake his hand and say Congratulations, my Man.
