I walk out of my new head quarters, look at my freshly cut lawn and start walking. My new suit feels great against my skin, hand-made and shipped from Italy, the tailor was a family friend, he made my father's suit and his father's before that. My shoes have a crisp sound to them as I stroll down the path, they clip clop and feel a bit stiff, again, they arrived last night from Italy, I look down and smile, brand new shinning brighter than the sun. I felt good, I felt alive today, why? Today I woke up for the first day in my own Head Quarters.

As I arrive at the bottom of the path, I approach the microphone to address the gathered people.

"Welcome ladies and Gentleman,

"Welcome to my new home, the home of The Reprobates. Last night, I was approached by the Godmother of Detroit, Marietta, who advised me she wanted to talk to me. Now, when the Godmother gives you a summons, you turn up, smile and hope it's good news, fortunately for me it was, Godmother Marietta had with her a key and a pleasant smile. The key was to unlock the front door to this building I stand before today, I was to be given the honour of Captaincy."

I take a sip of water, look behind me to the building and smile before continuing.

"I have worked in Detroit for some time, assisting in various Captains families and helping out where I could, Detroit is a city I am proud to be a part of and one I am proud to have helped build in my own small way. So when I was given this opportunity, I was honoured and humbled. Marietta, thank you for this opportunity, I shall do you proud."

I pause to take another drink of water.

"Before I continue, I would like to pay homage to those who died in the war and express my thanks and condolences with a minutes silence in remembrance."

At that, a rifle shot is fired. I stand and think about the great people who died in the war and their efforts in building Detroit into the great city is has become. A minute passes and another rifle shot is fired.

"May they rest in peace."

I take one final drink of water, put my hand on my heart and nod to the heavens above.

"I don't want this to be a sad affair but wanted to pay my respects, nor do I want to turn this into an acceptance speech so, for those who know me, I thank you for your support and kind words, for those who don't know me, you're missing out because I'm fucking great! Welcome to The Reprobates!"

Congratulations Rhuarc. Good luck with your family brother. You grew up with Rampage and myself and now its your time to shine bro. Do Detroit proud mate.

Shakes Rhuarc's hand

If you need anything just yell brother.

Not that you need it with your talent Rhuarc, but good luck anyway! I wish you the best.

Congratulations, Rhuarc. I look forward to working with you and seeing what you can accomplish in our beautiful city.

Edward walks by The Reprobates' HQ and heads up to Rhuarc to congratulate him.

Congratulations, Signore Rhuarc. I wish you nothing but the best of luck and I can't wait to see what you have to bring to our fair city.

Edward shakes Rhuarc's hand and continues down the street.

Congratulations Rhuarc,i know you'll do well.

Congratulations, it is an honor to work for you

Congratulations Rhuarc. Very happy to see you where you are. Take it easy.

for those who don't know me, you're missing out because I'm fucking great!

Rhuarc, I love the fact you are willing to lie and manipulate to get where you want to be. If you can't do it in the mafia, where can you do it? Ignoring the option of parliament, that is.

Congratulations buddy, delighted to see you back in charge of a family.

Amber walks into the streets, and overhears the speech. "They'll auth anyone these days.", she thinks to herself. Quickly, she smiles at Rhuarc, hoping he can't read her mind, when she realizes he knows exactly what she's thinking, considering she just sent him a mail, telling him the very same thing.

Congratulations Rhuarc, I'm so very proud of you. If there is anything I can do for you, please don't hesitate to ask.

Boaby watches Jessie, wondering why she's watching this "Amber" so intently and how she knows what she's thinking! Stalker, he thinks to himself. Come to think of it, he can apparently "see" what Jessie is thinking too. This place is weird he thinks to himself, before wandering off.

congrats and goodluck Rhuarc!
