| New York | Started by: Marietta on Oct 08, '08 23:03 |

The dark and slummy streets of New York made the woman shudder as she stepped out of her car and onto the pavement. Drearier than she had ever remembered the city being in ages, with bloodstains still littering the Streets among patches of falling leaves, Marietta quickly bowed her head to bypass the sight and the memories. Walking behind her body guard Pedro she followed him into the abandoned warehouse where she was to be meeting some associates. Inside was even darker than the night skies of the city that never slept. Her footsteps echoed on the cement as she timidly walked inside behind Pedro, who had his gun pulled in case of a wayward attacker. Only a small lamp burning on top of a card table flickered to light her way over towards the far side of the building. Marietta took a deep breath and approached the shadowy figures that were perched around the table, chatting softly. Their words were impossible to hear, but the drone stopped the second the woman approached the table. Affixing a brave smile to her face she slowly started to pull off her gloves. Evening, gentlemen. Cold outside, no? TheSpacePope bowed his head respectfully towards the woman, Taskmaster offering up a weak chuckle in response. For two well spoken men they were being unusually quiet. Marietta sat down in an empty chair and faced the two men with a serious stare, Pedro looming ominously over her shoulder. I know you two are probably wondering why I called you... here, of all places. It was the only place I could assure we had the proper amount of privacy this subject matter calls for. "No problem at all," Taskmaster spoke up, leaning forward in his seat to see better in the lamp light. At the same time the Pope sat up straighter in his own chair. Marietta glanced back and forth between the two, sensing a bit of urgency and most importantly- energy. This is good. Really good. I can feel it. You two have become acquainted, I hope? The two men nodded simultaneously and Marietta leaned back in her chair with a smirk. Brilliant. Now settle in, this might be a bit lengthy. As you both know Crime, USA saw one of the most gruesome wars that have existed since, well, since we were born at least. It left six Dons and their families dead, littering the streets from coast to coast. Needless to say, I'm trying to make an honest attempt to fix and rebuild the trade we had going before this bloodbath erupted. The last thing I want is for our way of life to crumble here in America, so we have to keep things going strong. In doing this, I am going to need people who are willing to make a change and make a difference in how things are run. I've... come up with a bit of a crazy idea. One that involves you two. Biting down on her bottom lip she glanced back and forth between the Pope and the Master. Noting that neither of them had any comments she took another deep breath and began to speak once more. Tons of effort will be needed in restoring order to the seven major crime cities. In an attempt to do this, I plan on finding some way to place two men or women, Made status and above, in certain cities with their own families. Working together they can hopefully regain some of the former glory we had before this entire mess happened. I have no doubt in my mind, that if you two accept, you will be just what New York needs. The room fell silent, only the dripping of a leaking and broken pipe sounding in the distance. "You mean you...?" the Pope began to ask and Marietta nodded. If you two want it, that is. I'd like to give New York to you both. Sir... Pope... man and Mister Taskmaster, you are both well-spoken, both very intelligent. I know that putting your minds together we can see some amazing talent come out of the City that Never Sleeps. I know it is a lot to ask of you, to take on something so large-scale and meaningful as this, but I urge you both to think about it and accept. Without missing a beat the two men glanced at each other, turned back to Marietta and nodded. Stunned that the decision was made so hastily the woman felt herself start to stutter. Wow, r-really? You're sure? "As sure as sure can be," the master said. Perfect! Marietta exclaimed, clapping her hands together in excitement. You two will need these. Digging into her purse she pulled out two envelopes and passed them across the table. Inside is a bit of cash and a key to two buildings that should work out perfectly for you two. Congratulations, TheSpacePope and Taskmaster. Today you've officially become the, er, 'rulers' of New York. |

Despite the appointment of a man of faith to this most prestigious position, I can't help but wonder what Hell our Holiness will inflict on his half of the city. I'm not sure if you realized that his goal to be a Sir Anthony makes finger quotes. Pillar of the Community has nothing to do with having unimpeachable moral values. At least all the strippers will have nice new heels. Congratulations to TheSpacePope and to Taskmaster. New York is in for a treat. |

Congratulations to the two of you. Although I refuse to say as our esteemed Don Marietta says, that you two rule. *TheSpacePope and Taskmaster team up putting Troy in an arm bar, and proceed to give noogies, and indian burns* Ouch! Alright Alright! You guys rule. By the way, where is the nearest department store, I believe my undies ripped after that atomic wedgie. |
