Nick Valentine was a man who had been out of commission for some time, he used to run a cozy outfit in Las Vegas before taking the city over. Nick had since left the life of crime to pursue other interest before being taking by the institute and having his memories wiped, once he returned to this thing of ours he began working for Makima for many years. Relearning his own history and the things he'd done, when he learned of how much success he'd had in the past he swore to himself that if he were ever given the chance to have his own outfit again he'd do things the right way. The way he'd been shown by those who have had to re-teach him this thing of ours. On this day he was called into her office for a very particular reason. Upon entering..

Makima " Listen it's time we began preparations, I'm going to be taking over the role of Godfather and myself and Godfather Chairman Petah believe it's time you took a small portion of my crew and begin leading again."

Nick very hesitantly responded, "Listen I'll do it, but under one condition." he paused, "Paradise is my home and the Devil Hunters are my family, I'd like to remain here and have my outfit work directly under you."

Makima laughed, "Listen dickhead you're not some kind of big shot anymore you aren't going anywhere, I love you and you're not going anywhere now go out there and look for a location then get back to me."

They both laughed and as Nick walked out the door Makima said one more thing, "Hey you running it back with the old name or you want to try something new?" Nick smiled a little, then said "Today is the day SynthCity returns to these shores."
