Ronin made his way out into the streets of Seattle to make his first appearance in the city. The day had been quite hectic, but overall the move out west went smooth as could be. Having spent the last decade of his life making his bones in New York, Ronin was finally returning to the west coast, where he was born and raised. Having grown up in San Francisco, Ronin was not accustomed to quite as much rain as he would have in Seattle, but he certainly knew the Pacific. The waters were much colder up here, but Ronin wasn't interested in swimming. It was the docks he was after. 

Having purchased his new HQ on the Waterfront, Ronin had immediately sent enforcers and associates down to the docks to make their presence known and muscle in on the trade happening there. The shipping and receiving business was extremely profitable, and so far was completely untapped in this city's history. No prominent mafia dons had ever controlled the district, and he was excited to put his stamp on it.

After he had everything in order around the HQ, he made his way to Pioneer Square to make his announcement.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, thank you for joining me on this fine evening. So far the rain has held back, but you never know in this city so I will make this as brief as possible."

He tightened his coat quickly, it was a bit colder than he was expecting.

"As you are certainly aware I have been given the blessings of godfathers Jemaine_Clement and Space-pole to move my organization out west. I have decided to settle in the brand new district of Waterfront, in part because of the lucrative shipping business here, but also in a symbolic gesture. I want Waterfront to be a fresh start, and I want those who desire a fresh start to feel welcomed here. Me and my ancestry, while perhaps elitist and crude, have always been steadfast in the belief that a person should not always be judged for the actions of their parents. While much can be learned of a person based on their heritage, it is not the most important thing to look for in a person. Anyone can turn over a new leaf and change the perception of who they are. Many times that perception is completely off base, driven by lies and deception from enemies of the past. If you desire a fresh start, I have no interest in what you have done, only what you can do for Seattle."

"I intend to keep a stranglehold on the VIP rankings in Seattle, I wish for this district to be a shining beacon of bustling business activity, so expect to continue seeing yours truly right here on these streets. To those of you who have been to my businesses, my sincerest apologies for being unable to show of late, I have been quite busy."

He smiled in what he hoped was a warm, welcoming way. Due to his chronic resting bitch face, this was rather difficult.

"My brother Odin and I have been given a great opportunity here in this young city, and we intend to make the most of it. We want to build a city to be proud of, where standards are high and fellowship is key. We have chosen to share this opportunity with our dear friend @Damon_Salvatore, who has taken over operations in the district of Ballard. The famous HandJobHarry has gone along with him to assist. This is Damon's family's first opportunity to operate as a leader in this capacity, but we are quite confident in him. He has come very far under our tutelage, and is now an impressive young man that his mother ElenaMichaels is very proud of. I know he will hold his district to the same standards that we will, and that someday he will be an excellent godfather. While it pains me greatly to see Damon and Faceman leave my HQ, I know they will be an excellent team in Ballard."

"Quickly before I go, I want to offer my gratitude to the other godfathers who have not only helped us to achieve this dream, but have been great allies for so long, and continue to be today. Firstly, Space-pole has been only too kind to us all over in Manhattan. He has an enormous heart and only desires to see his people succeed in this life. A special shout out to ConstanceBonacieux, who's constant gifts of bacon, cookies, and lube recipes have been pleasantly helpful to me. To acting godfather HandsomeRob, another of my brothers, I offer my wishes of good fortune as he continues to rebuild Las Vegas. My condolences to Jemaine_Clement for the fact that he has to put up with firebreak, daughter of SuperHans every day. And Finally to Zoom, who is an upstanding example of hard work and dedication providing results, I thank for the inspiration."

He looked up to the skyline and saw the sun had started to set, and realized he had been speaking a bit longer than he intended to. 

"My apologies, I have not been as brief as intended. Thank you all for your time."

Clown takes a flight to seatle to see the new faces but streets were empty,he lit a cigar and offered 1 to his friend Zoom ,he ran into also another friend walked up with his shiny tipped shoes Odin and so he offered him a cigar also they sat on the bench talking for a bit Clown was happy to run into some familiar faces... he shakes their hand he has a flight booked for vegas bids all a good day.

Faceman looks exhausted and deflated to see he must work with Damon_Salvatore having spent years in silence and away from this life to come back and have to work with him so soon has been a real kick in the teeth. Putting on a brave face he offered some positive words.

"I hope for the best of luck for everyone who has swapped their homes from the comfort of New York to the new mean streets of Seattle."

Not wanting to mingle with the crowd he found his way to the new HQ to make it less welcoming

after a long flight, Siegfried takes his belongings and enters his new Hall. It was dark,dirty but showing potential. 

Siegfried grabs a broom and begins to clean the New Seattle hall.

Moments later he hears chatter in the streets and heads to meet the people of Seattle.

"Congratulations and Thank you. It is a honor and a blessing..."

The speech given begins to fate as Siegfried begins to plan his itinerary...

Listening in on his boss Sinfest can't help but feel a little sad knowing he had to pick up everything in his life and move to Seattle. He hadn't been around very long but in that short time he had made some contacts and friends and it was hard to say goodbye. Sinfest was proud that his family had been chosen to move though and as Ronin was finishing his speech, Sinfest clapped and cheered with the rest of the crowd.

"Congratulations mr boss man! I am sure we will make Seattle a profitable little hub out here in the west but I am sure going to miss the east."

Sinfest than shakes Ronin's hand and goes back to trying and making new contacts in this rainy city.

DamonSalvatore looked out his best bottle of bourbon as today was a special day. He made no effort in hiding the bottle as he walked through the excited crowd and walked on stage next to the new upper echelon of Seattle. He passed Faceman and slapped him on the back of the head for his earlier comments. He walked past Ronin and Odin and shook both of his close friend's hands as he approached centre stage.

"Good evening all, I would first like to with everyone who made their way to Seattle all the best. It'll take a wee while to get into the swing of things but when we do, we WILL be great. I look forward to taking this great city to new heights with two men that I have looked up to for a long time now. Thank you for the opportunity gentlemen, it won't be wasted."

Damon raises his bottle up at the gathering crowd and takes a large swig before pushing Faceman into a car as they get back to their HQ and prepare for a long night of work.
