Lights was looking out the window of his new office when the last of his boxes were brought in. That crash of the box on the floor broke him from his daydream. He blinked a few times before turning around to find Sephiroth. Mayor McCheese showed up behind him. It had been almost an entire day since DeadlySin told him he'd be heading up his own family in Philadelphia. Something was different though. A new sparkle in his eye as he looked at his city in a different light, the motivation and the belief that he has the oppurtunity given to him by DeadlySin to truly change the landscape of philidelphia. He turned to his friends with a smile, offering them a smoke. He knew neither of them would take it, no one ever does, but he does it anyway. "People are starting to arrive Lights, you better get out there." McCheese said. Lights had almost forgotten he invited some friends and family to his HQ for a bit of a celebration. He looked down, and saw that he was still in his moving attire, jeans and a t-shirt. Even had his gun tucked in the back of his jeans. After the events of the past day he never kept it far from him. He waved the men out, and turned to his wardrobe that he now had in his office. He put on a fine suit, and tucked his gun in his pants. When he finally made it out to the common room, it was booming with activity. Friends and family, and some people he didn't know, all here to celebrate his new opportunity. "Friends, family, all you others. I am pleased that you all decided to join me on this evening. I meant to do this last night, but as you can see things got a little hectic, and it took my attention elsewhere" Lights began. He scanned the room, looking at all the faces looking at him. He reached into his coat pocket and pulled a cigarette and matches out. It was a nervous habit of his, to smoke when he wasn't sure what to say. He hadn't been in this life for long, but had apparently impressed the right people enough to be deemed worthy of this opportunity. With the nicotine now flowing through his system, it calms him down enough to continue his speech. "It seems like years ago that I met Coco, and she introduced me to DeadlySin. Little did I know that I would one day be wearing a bold suit for the man soon after. I would like to thank, now Godfather, DeadlySin, and his lovely right hand Coco, for giving me such an opportunity. I can only hope that I can be the man that they see in me, and do them proud. With the help of a few friends, I hope to build this family into something for the histories." Lights took a long drag on his cigarette. "I won't keep you from the celebrations. I got enough alcohol for us to celebrate all night, so enjoy the many splendors Metropolis has to offer." Lights puts his cigarette in a nearby |

BenjaminWade stands in the crowd a smile growing across his face he listens to the speech before giving a round of applause to Lights after he finishes speaking he makes his way through the crowd up to Lights he offers a nod and embraces him in a handshake before speaking..
"I would like to congratulate you on your opportunity. I have not been in this family long and never have I felt so welcomed. I know you will do great things with the chance you have been given. I wish you good luck and only hope that all of the ones working under you can do you proud. I am proud to say I work in a city that rewards such hard work and perseverence that you have undoubtedly displayed."
Benjamin reaches into his pocket offering him a black box. Upon opening it it is revealed to contain fresh cuban cigars the aroma tickled his nose as he handed them to Lights.
"I spared no expense for you my friend. Fresh Cuban's right off the boat. I look forward to our friendship growing and our future in this city." |

Spider exited her dressing room in an elegant ball gown. She was in Los Angeles, a city she called home for a short time, for a movie premier with a Hollywood actor. Though, before she would go see the movie and have to deal with all the cameras and their flashing lights, Spider had a letter to address to a very different Lights in Philadelphia. A letter of congratulations would have to do. |

Sephiroth approaches his fellow friend, and new boss with a pair of drinks. Whiskey on the rocks, he always new that the fella was never into the fancy wines or sparking Champaign, not to mention this is a celebration so figured we would get right to good stuff. Standing to the right side of him he hands over the drink and slightly raises the glass and gives it a little shake before taking a swig…
Well brother, what else can I say other that im well beyond happy for you. Seems like we were just kids running around yesterday, glad to see you have done so well for yourself here in Philadelphia. Just as happy to be here with you to ride this crazy roller coaster out, I know you will do great things here not the slightest doubt in my mind people will be impressed. You have some big shoes to fill, but I know you father would be proud of you.
Looking down at his glass he takes another sip of the whiskey, and pulls out a pack of cigarettes. Tapping the box in his hand a single smoke pops out the top where he then brings it to his lips and lights it up, he takes a drag and exhales…
Congratulations my friend, let the journey begin. |

Rufus was minding his own business in the back of the crowd, listening to his new boss speak. Pulling out a box of cigars Rufus makes his way over to Lights and hands the cigars to him.
Congratulations to you Lights, with Philadelphia growing more and more everyday I don't believe the new Godfather could have made a better choice for his new underboss. I look forward to working for you, and we all know Metropolis will do Philadelphia proud.
Extends his hand out for Lights. After the congratulations, Rufus heads down to the local pub. |
