| Detroit's Don Trio, Willis! (Rourke Edition) | Started by: ThomasRourke on Feb 04, '09 17:02 |

The Rourkes gathered in Brian's deceased mother's house. It was a fitting location for such a coronation. It was a gathering that would take place for Brian in about 2 years after all his petty a day efforts. It was quite a celebratory occasion as two Rourkes and one Rourke wife/lover (depending on who you asked) were to take their place among the most elite ranks Detroit had to offer. It was an affair for the ages and all the Rourkes had turned out to celebrate the Three: Abby, Brian, Digger, Fu-Manju, Pedro, Randolfo, Smithy, Fork, and Thomas himself. They had even decided that it was best to bring a few posthumous Rourkes along by digging up the corpses of Eddie, Mickey, GayPerry, Waffles, and AnotherBloody. Without those icons, the Rourke movement would never have been so successful. The Three were lined up and were circled by the Rourkes and honorary member Marietta, all wearing their traditional ceremonial garb. The trio were blindfolded, and Phatballz had requested a ball-gag, but apparently everyone was fresh out. There was a hum of excitement that Fork finally brought to order. Thomas and Brian stood together, almost as if they were one Rourke, and Thomas began, "You three have been gathered here today to pass what is the final test before Godmother Marietta finally gives you the ultimate in honors. You have worked hard for the city of Detroit, and our appreciation for it runs immeasurably deep. So now it is time for you all to proceed to the final tasks. Fail this, and you will be reduced once again to Gangster rank, and stripped of all honors. Brian, hand me the Bowls of Fate." Brian handed the bowls to Thomas who then placed them on the floor in front of him. One was filled with spaghetti, the next with grapes, and the final one with roasted chestnuts, lightly salted. Thomas picked up the bowl with spaghetti in it and faced Aurora. "Aurora (Rourke[Again depending who you asked]), you have been the dutiful right hand to Riot! for ages and ages and ages, some would say it's felt like 26, maybe 27 years! You have been fearless and tactful, graceful and kind, Brian's wife and/or Rourkey's lover. By all means you have earned this... May you find this final task to be as surmountable as all the other obstacles that have been placed before you. In front of your hands you will find the greasy hair of long deceased mobster Clipper. As a test of fortitude, you are to plunge your hands into the bowl and leave them for 10 seconds. Failure to do so will result in the stripping of all your rank and honor. Proceed." The crowd gasped as Aurora dipped her hands into the bowl of spaghetti and held them there. Her face cringed and all the Rourkes held hands, praying for Aurora to hold on to her steely resolve. The ten seconds finally passed and the bowl was taken away and placed down on the ground in front of her. She shook her hands trying to rid them of what she thought to be Clipper residue as the Rourkes applauded mightily. Thomas moved in front of Phatballz and picked up the bowl of grapes. "Phatballz Rourke, you and your family have been a steadfast presence in Detroit for months ever since one of your swollen Ball'd ancestors came aboard as a war refugee. Your time with us has always been a joy, and to see you standing before us now, blindfolded and confused, it has all been worth it. Your loyalty and commitment to us is not just a testament to your individual character, but should be the benchmark by which others are judged. To move on to your final phase of promotion, you must dip your hands into a bowl that holds the eyeballs of enemies from wars past: Mr. MFer, Gambino, Mitch, HandiMan, Dante Balboni, Bi-Polar Bear, Mane, Briana Arao, Doyle, Mont, Branston, Caligula, Alessia, and Stoned Silent. If you withdraw your hands before 10 seconds have passed, you will be stripped of rank and honor. Proceed." Phatballz drove his hands deep into the bowl and seemed to have very few reservations. In fact he start smashing the grapes and rubbing them all over his face. The 10 seconds were up and the crowd stood silently aghast. Thomas signaled for Brian to take the bowl from his hands. "Ah, well good... Good then. Moving on." Thomas cleared his throat and looked at the rest of the people in the room and made a face at them. He moved in front of Rourkey and picked up the final bowl. "Rourkey Rourke, you have come to our small and humble band of mobsters and have been a very positive addition. You came to us after we had to kill one of our most trusted people for being a traitor and liar, and you've already become the member we had hoped you'd be. We've known each other a while, and I can say that it is my deepest pleasure to be here today to see you achieve this feat. For your task, you must put your hand into the bowl and pluck out one of Waffles' many testicles. We've roasted them to make it more palatable. You must hold said testicle in your mouth for 10 seconds, or else you will be stripped of your rank and honors. Proceed." Thomas watched as Rourkey all too eagerly picked out one of the chestnuts from the bowl and put it in his mouth. He then made strange gurgling sounds causing the Rourkes and Marietta to recoil a bit. The 10 seconds couldn't have lasted longer as the onlookers were both fascinated and horrified at the tongue-play that Rourkey used on the chestnut. Finally time was up and Rourkey stood an accomplished man. Digger removed the blindfolds from the Rourkey, Phatballz, and Aurora, and Thomas continued, "Congratulations all three of you. You have succeeded in the final tasks laid out for you. Look down now, at the items to which you had to handle. The three looked down at the bowls and saw spaghetti, grapes, and chestnuts. The reactions were all different: Aurora looked relieved, Phatballz looked disappointed, and Rourkey just looked depressed. Thomas motioned Marietta to step forward to finish out the ceremony. Thomas stepped back with all of the Rourkes and watched as Marietta presented Rourkey, Aurora, and Phatballz with their own fruitcakes and squeaky hammers. "Congratulations to the three of you, and welcome to the esteemed rank of Don." Confetti was thrown, fellow Rourkes were kissed at by Rourkey, and all was well in the land of Detroit. There were 7 bolds, 7 Dons, 4 Captains, 2 divisional crews, and 1 Godmother... It was beginning to sound like a famous Christmas song. |

Aurora looked down at the bowl of spaghetti and let out a huge sigh of relief. She was so grateful that she didn't actually have to touch any remains of that icky Clipper. A tear of joy started to form in her eye, but she quickly made it stop. Crying is no way for a Don and RHM to Godmother Marietta to act in public. She couldn't contain her excitement and gratitude much longer and just had to say a few things before she exploded. Thank you so much everyone for your support and well wishes. I can't say what an honor it is to achieve the rank of Don. There are so many people I can thank for helping me get to this point in my life. I can't thank Marietta enough for giving me a job and letting me serve alongside her for so long. For a Tyrant she sure is amazing. I also want to take the time to Congratulate my fellow newly appointed Dons, RourkeyRourke and PhatballzRourke. So many Rourkes! Who would've thought the Rourkes would be around this long. Rourkey, our relationship started out rocky but i've grown to admire you and your eccentric ways. Even after the wedding and so called honeymoon you've managed to gain my respect. I'm glad to be able to work with you in the Riot Castle. Phatballz, you are quite possibly one of the most awesome people around these streets. One that i'm glad to have the chance to know. You can brighten up the most darkened situations with ease. Aright, enough of this mush. I'm being far too girly now. Aurora sees an unknown bum enter Brian's mothers house. She walks over to the bum and steals his begging cup to prove that she's not as soft as she just showed everyone. Here Brian, this is for you. |
