It was a nice spring day in New York, the birds were sings and the sun way out. Bubbles had decided to go for a walk, it had been a little while since she actually had the time to venture out into the streets of Manhattan and with the weather finally being nice it was the perfect time. Though streets of Manhattan had just recently gotten a bit quieter. It was bitter sweet to her, she loved giving the ones she trusted the opportunities they deserved but hated the fact that Manhattan wasn't as busy as it once used to be.

She walked around the district for a little while, stopped every once in a while to chat with some of the local residents and shop owners. It was always a good thing for business to keep the locals happy and make them feel comfortable enough with her presence. Eventually she made her way back to her HQ, it was nice enough outside that she took up a seat on the stairs of the HQ and continued to watch the flow of people.

She did catch herself day dreaming a couple of times, which was something that she hadn't done in a while. Recently there was always something pressing on her mind, though today she was just enjoying the day. With a deep breath of the fresh air Bubbles was about to get up and head inside the HQ, when she heard the heavy door behind her open. She gave a look over her shoulder, it was BumbleBee. It wasn't much of a surprise to her, he always seemed to be around but then again isn't that was a right hand is supposed to do? 

He made his way down to her and sat down next to her.

"Hey Bee, such a nice day isn't it?"

With a nod and a smile he leans back against the railing.

"Yeah, that it is!"

They took a couple minutes as the pair sat there in silence just enjoying the relaxation. Bubbles could tell though that something was on his mind.

"What is it?"

He began laughing.

"What do you mean? How don't you know I just wanted to come sit out here and enjoy the nice day?"

She gave him a glare and sighed.

"I know you all to well, so out with it."

"Ok, well you got me. So I think it is about time to do what we talked about the other night. Petah is about full over at the Institution and with ReignMan taking his operations to Las Vegas we need more operational space."

Bubbles looked at him and smiled.

"Yeah, you're right. I think it's time, where is Sof..."

Just then the HQ door opened again as Sofia walked out.

"Speak of the devil" Bee and herself said almost on cue.

"Sofia my dear, come join us. Have a seat."

Sofia made her way down to the pair and sat right in between them.

"So we could do this inside but it's way to nice to be inside. So we will just have this conversation here. As you know Manhattan had just gotten a bit smaller. Petah is about full over there and we need someone to expand the district once again. ReignMan's old HQ is still in great shape, one of the nicer buildings on the block, you just need to furnish it. Now here is where I would ask if you can handle it and all of that but I already know the answer. Plus you really don't have much of a choice here, well you do but you really don't." She said with a chuckle. 

Bee reached into his pocket taking out a set of keys to the building in question, handing them to Sofia.

"Do me proud."

It had been a long road for Sofia from the days being MeadMaidens associate in the Nightingales under Dovakiin then traveling to Brooklyn to hand for Luminosity. The road lead her to Bubbles where she had settled in and really started to make a name for herself by curtailing Ash and his unwanted advances and serenading of Bubbles.

Sofia had heard rumors that ReignMan was getting the Nod to head west so this meeting she thought would be to discuss who was ready to lead there own operation here in Manhatten. A few members sprang to mind Tyrion.DemTitties and Sal where all solid and reliable members Daryl and Jacky where also up there Hell the entire crew was full of great members she frowned this was going to be hard.

"Mam" Fritz voice interrupted Sofia's revelry. " Your going to be late for the meeting" Sofia looked at the time and grunted double timing it towards Bubbles office. Seeing BumbleBee and Bubbles sitting outside was no surprise though the looks they both gave her unbalanced her a bit. Though nothing had prepared her for having the keys to her own HQ handed to her.

"Do me Proud" Those words barely registered Sofia sprang to her feet and embraced Bubbles.

"Thank you GodMother" Sofia bowed her head "The Dark Order is yours to command" 

"One more thing Sofia" Sofia looked at Bubbles "That bloody imp TyrionLannister take him with you i am sick of him going through my underwear drawer" Sofia sighed Tyrion had been going through all the females underwear drawers though maybe she could focus him on something else she thought.

The new spread fast, she had heard about Sofia's promotion.  She was close by, and just had to give congrats.  A few blocks later she sees the lovely Godmother and Sofia sitting outside.  She stops briefly in front of the Godmother with a smile. 

Godmother Bubbles, very nice to see you.

Turning towards Sofia, she throws her arms around her.

Sofia my love, congrats!  So happy for you. 

When DemTitties awoke in the HQ, there was a noticeable difference immediately. It was quiet, way too quiet. The silence was so disturbing DemTitties immediately got out of bed and went to investigate. Hardly able to even see, DemTitties stammered out into the hall way, rubbing their eyes and squinting from the light coming through the windows. Walking downstairs DemTitties spotted Bubbles sitting behind her desk working on something or at least making it look like work was being accomplished. 

"What's going on today? Something feels off..."

After Bubbles finished explaining how Sofia and Tyrion took off and set up their own operation DemTitties turned around and took off, mumbling something about Sofia and Tyrion.

"Those bastards didn't even think to wake me up and say goodbye, I'll show them!"

Leaving the HQ DemTitties quickly got a cab and headed towards the new HQ in New York. It only took a few minutes to get there, and as the can pulled up DemTitties bounced the driver a few bills and told them to keep the change. 

Kicking open Sofia's brand new HQ doors DemTitties yelled.

"SOFIA, TYRION, you BASTARDS! You could have woken me up and said bye. Gave DemTitties a squeeze and a bounce before taking off! How rude, I thought we were friends! I best have a nice room here for when I want to visit, where is it!?"

It was a nice pleasant day, as BumbleBee was sitting next to Godfather Bubbles enjoying the sun light and taking in the serenity of birds chirping in New York. This was indeed a rare occurrence in the city that never sleep. Usually the sound of the birds was suppressed by the sound of the combustion engines from the street. And specially around these parts, there were always trucks going in and out, since ReignMan ran the docks. Well the ReignMan was out west, and so were quite a bit of the trucks. Just sitting back and having his conversation with Bubbles they talked about the meeting they had the other night. It was quite a party actually, first Sofia showed up fashionably late. I mean if Bubbles is the Queen of New York, Sofia would definitely classify as a Princess. The alcohol was in full flow, some of the best food in town was catered in and the desert was to die for. Bee loved late night meetings at the HQ, but the best part outside of hanging out with DemTitties and Bubbles was to get his desert munch on. Once the decision was made to kick Sofia out and give her a small personal castle. Bee drank some more in celebration. This was catching up to him now as he sat with the Godfather outside the HQ.

BANG! The door opened.

It was Sofia behind the door. Bubbles sat Sofia down and made the move official. Giving the keys to the mini castle to the Princess of York. Once the formality was done. Bee gave Sofia big hug. 

Congratulations Sofia! I know you will make us all very proud. None about has put in the kind of work you did, working for Godfather Bubbles as her LHM. You will sorely be missed in the Castle, but its time for you to go build your own sand castles! He says with a smile. 

He hands over a box of some fine jewelry over to Sofia as a present. 

If you ever need anything, you know where to find me girl!!! No get that street hustle & bustle back on. 

Insomnia had just landed at the New York airport, returning back home from a one week vacation in the Bahamas. Crazily enough he was able to trick Bubbles into thinking he was on a business trip this whole time. On the flight back he had been reading, catching up on everything he had missed in his time away. Opening an unfamiliar noted mail Insomnia skims through noticing it was announcing Sophia setting up her own headquarters in the district of Manhattan. Smiling he folds up the piece of paper, placing it into his pocket while grabbing his suitcase from the luggage compartment above. Exiting the plane he summons a taxi cab with a whistle, waving his hands in the air.

The taxi slowly creeps into the gravel driveway before coming to a stop. Thanking the driver Insomnia hands the man a hundred dollar bill before exiting the vehicle. Looking down at his attire Insomnia shakes his head laughing, noticing he was still wearing shorts and sandals with a noticeable tan.

"Shit it's been a while since I've been here, I really hope they don't catch on to why I was late."

Insomnia knocks on the door, waiting a minute before shrugging his shoulders and entering the headquarters. As he enters he hears a group of people talking in the living room, walking over he notices BumbleBee handing Sophia a present.

"Oh fuck! I never brought a gift!"

Continuing to curse under his breath he walks into the living room, waving his hand and winking at DemTittes who was jiggling, jumping up and down in the chair happily for Sophia's big day.  

"Hey guys! So sorry I'm late! You'll never believe how much work I had to do out of town this week."

Scratching the back of his neck nervously he spots Sophia sprawled out on the couch already a bit sloshed from all of the alcohol given to her. Walking towards her Insomnia kneels down, bowing his head out of respect for the newly drunken crew leader of Manhattan.

"Congratulations Sophia, you've been working with us for quite some time now and I couldn't be happier to see you given this opportunity, as I know you'll do something amazing with it. I wish you the best in moving and settling into your new home. If you ever need anything just remember I'm only a district away."

Smiling Insomnia extends his hand outwards, shaking Sophia's hand, lifting her upwards for a hug.

"Please tell me you didn't drink up all of the booze, is there anything left to cheers with!?"
