Detroit streets were littered with people, mobbing up en masse wielding peaceful candles in honour of their fallen Don FatherJack and Don Farage. Two of Detroit's top mafioso were mercilessly murdered in their sleep by what they once believed to be an ally, the high-ranking mobsters of New York. In what we can only imagine to be a time of terror, the city of Detroit acted in kind, banding up with the other cities - some unfortunately sporting their own black eyes and bruising following the brutal, brainless attacks early this morning. With the threat now neutralised, first responders in Detroit were catching up on sleep while the lazy-latecomers pick apart the rubble. Digging through the ruins, all manner of tough mafioso survivors have been recovered and seek shelter through this troubling time. With Ood's questionably-named 'WARMONGERS' HeadQuarters now full, bursting with people rushing to help in the rebuild, he is forced to speed up his plans in authing JohnnyCage as his Underboss of Corktown. Just twenty-six short days before his own conquest to challenge the Godfather, Ood looks like a man in action, after plenty of disappointing, shameful sleep.

"Hello everyone. As we all suffer in mourning after the needless loss of life today, I am forced to make this announcement brief. I'm afraid it's all hands on deck for us in the city of Detroit. To help alleviate the pressure of the masses flocking for residence in Detroit as the New York market takes a nose-dive, @JohnnyCage will be setting up as my Underboss in Corktown in the coming hours - a little earlier than expected, but he's ready I assure you all. Please feel free to congratulate him! We have to sift through the shit and find the positives on days like today, that's what FatherJack would say.

I'm sorry, that's all I have time for, 

God rest all of the fallen. God rest Our FatherJack and Farage.

Long Live Detroit."

It's still in discussion what else is to follow in these unprecedented times, but one thing is clear - soup is on the menu in the kitchen of Corktown.

Johnny hurried down the street trying to keep up with Don Ood, he was in quite a hurry today with so much on his plate following the events of the previous night. In fact, he was scampering along so fast that the noodles hanging from his chin flapped from side to side with each step, nearly hitting the people he passed. 

Johnny had managed to delay him just enough on the way out of the Warmongers HQ to actually put a shirt on for once. It was, after all, a pretty special occasion for him. Although he was still a bit down and mourning the loss of Don FatherJack and Don Farage he was also proud that Ood had authorized him to set up his own HQ with him in Corktown. It's not every day your boss hands you a wad of cash and tells you to move out.

Once Ood finally came to a stop Johnny stood back and listened to him speak, stepping forward and shaking his hand when he was finished.

"Thank you Ood, and thank you for allowing me to bring TommasoCiampa and humuhumunukunukuapua with me. Together I am confident we will not disappoint you."​​​​​​​

"As the french say, 'Le roi est mort, longue vie au roi'." Philli says as he steps to the crowds edge. 

"I mourn with you for the fallen of your city, but i also wish the best for your new leadership. May they do well and make each district part of a greater whole. Good luck to you all."

Beetle listens to the announcement with the rest of the crowd in the streets of Detroit as she sheds a tear for the fallen ones and prays for success of the new leadership taken by JohnnyCage.

"Hear, hear! Good luck to all of you!" she speaks out, though not sure her feeble voice would be audible amidst this crowd. She still smiles and makes her way out with good feelings in her heart.

As Humuhumunukunukuapua'a was being carried over in his temporary land based housing (100 foot aquarium) he heard the last bit of Don Ood's speech. He got all excited as usual making a large number of acrobatic moves that he pulled off effortlessly.

When he finished he swam to the front side of the aquarium to the fish to human speech converted and open his gills to speak

Thank you Don Ood, together with Johnny and Tomaso we will make sure Corktown will be an equal opportunity employment place for fish, rodents and humans alike. Now that the aloha animal control unit is up and running and we can take out all rabies infested specimens we are free to operate again as usual. 

Surely we will make sure that in our HQ all the proper training is done with our newest recruits to ensure they will be there to master the martial arts in order to spring to Detroit's defenses whenever needed!!!

It was a rather big day for one of her favorites as Talia slowly strolled up to the gathering. Showing up fashionably late like usual, Talia tried to sneak into the mix of people. It didn't work as all she could feel were those red glaring eyes, she didn't even have to look in his direction but she knew he had spotted her. Sure Ood told her the time and the place, also told her not to be late but after last nights events she was a bit sluggish in her steps.

If it wasn't Johnny and his ascension into the spotlight, Talia would still be sitting in her office. Probably passed out at her desk but alas that was not the case. She was here, making her way over to congratulate the man of the hour. First stopping by his newly elected hands, giving Tommaso and embracing hug and hum a fin bump. 

She was still a bit confused on how the whole fish thing worked but it was something she didn't have time to question. At least not now... This would be something she'd pick Johnny's brain at over a coffee or a line of coke. Which ever way the mood swung that day. A bump did sound good come to think about it, would definitely help her get through the rest of the day. It was rather unfortunate though, as she didn't have any on her but perhaps Johnny did.

With a subtle goodbye, Talia left Tommaso and Hum. Took her only a few seconds to find Johnny, whom was being swarmed by people. A rather large smile beamed from his face as the reflection of the sun shined off his sun glasses. Took a couple elbows for her to weasel her way into where he was. The moment he saw her, she drew his attentions from the others.

"Look at you all big and fancy now, it rather suits you." Talia muttered as she leaned in towards him.

"Told you I looked good in the spotlight, not sure why you didn't believe me. About time you show up though, didn't think you were coming."

"Yeah... well. I'm here now. So get over it. Oh and by the way congrats and stuff. I'd tell you good luck and all of that but you don't need it. After this little gather is over, come find me. We need to celebrate the right way." Talia shot him a wink, gave him a hug then ducked back into the crowd. Still hoping to avoid the potential wraith of General Ood.
