Jennifer wipes a tear away as she reads her Family's Diary, I should mention I come from a long line of Jennifer's, My Great Grandmother, Grandmother and Mother , I remember when i first moved to detroit with my Mom, My family knew many of the Godfathers And Godmothers before they became a Godmother or Godfather.

My Mom always told she didn't want me to grow up in this life, Wanted me to grow up and be a Doctor or Lawyer, When i lost my Father, I remember that The Godfather came to pay Condolences to my Mom,My Mom didn't do anything She just told me to wait here, And She left with the Godfather It wasn't until a few weeks later i ran into My Fathers Boss, And He told me that My Mother was killed. I was filled with anger, I just lost my Father and now my Mother, I told him that I wanted into the Family, I wanted revenge against the man who killed my parents, He told me that he made a promise to my Father and Mother that he wouldn't allow me into the family, Instead he gave me enough money to move to New York and go to School there, I refused to take the money and repeated my answer.

I wanted to go into the family, He let me but Just to Deliver messages or Flowers, Or even bring the Made Men and Women what ever they needed, It was hard work, But I still wanted revenge on the Man who killed My Father, So i worked hard, I started early in the morning and worked till late at night, I was only 15 but i still did what ever they needed me to, My Fathers Boss always looked out for me, Even protected me when other members would harass me. He became like a "Second" Father to me, It wasn't until i turned 18, When i was brought aside by The Godfather and he told me that My Fathers Boss had been killed, He was at a Coffee shop when the man who killed My Father and Mother shot Him.

My Fathers Boss would never tell me how my Mother or Father were killed, It wouldn't be until a few years later When i found out what finally happened. Shortly after my 18th birthday The Godfather came up to me and asked me to go for a drive with him, I didn't know what to think, Was i in trouble?? I was scared, It wasn't often the Godfather talked to me. But you don't say no to Him. It was around midnight when we arrived at a warehouse.

The Godfather told me to get out and follow Him, I was still wondering what was going on, As i walked in i could here something like someone hitting a piece of meat. When i got into the room, I could see a man tied up on a chair and The Godfathers Right hand man, Hitting this man, I still didn't know what i was doing here, But i didn't ask. The Godfather walked up to the man and told him to look at me, I looked at the Godfather and the man sitting in the chair, Wondering what's going on, The Godfathers Right hand man pulled me aside and told me, That this was the man who killed my Father and Mother, And killed the man who took care of me, He had taken my family away from me, And i now had him Right here, Right in front of me. The Godfather came up to me and handed me a Gun.

He told me to shoot him, This is what i wanted. I've fired guns before, It was one of my jobs to make sure the guns were clean, So i knew how to shoot, But at that moment i couldn't pull the trigger, Despite the fact i wanted him dead, I've never shot anyone. But every time i tried to put the weapon down i thought of my Mother and My Father, And the man i came to call my "Second" Father.

I remember i closed my eyes and pulled the trigger, When i opened them i saw two pools of blood coming out of his chest, I knew i killed him but i couldn't stop pulling the trigger, Even when i heard the "clink" of the hammer hitting the metal, It wasn't till the Godfathers Right hand man, Took the gun out of my hand that i collapsed, I had just killed a man.

I remember i was really dizzy, And the last thing i heard before i fainted, Was The Godfather ordering one of his men, To get rid of the trash.

When i woke up, The Godfathers wife was taking care of me, The Godfather Right hand man came into the room and told his The Godfathers wife to leave, When she closed the door, He came up to me and asked how i was feeling.

I told him that i was feeling fine, Just everything that happened last night, I started to apologize, But he told me that i did not need to, He told me that after i was feeling better, The Godfather wanted to speak to me. I hoped he wasn't mad.

When i went into the Godfathers office he motioned toward the chair, He asked if i was alright and i told him i was fine, He then asked if i would like a position in the family?? I was surprised, I was told that i wouldn't be allowed in the family.

But he told me that i have proven myself and that if i choose he will allow me into the family, I of course took the offer,  And so that is how i came into this thing of ours. 

Sliver listens to Jennifer and nods.

Sometimes this is a hard life to live, but just like you did we all have to prove ourselves one way or another.

Yes thats true, but it is worth it once you have a family

Wraith listens to the story of the newcomer.

"Yes, anything is worth getting into a family that cares for you. I too am lucky in that aspect."

He nods and continues on his way.

Lol well thank you, Im not so much a newcomer, im older then most of you :p, But yes it is good once you have a family you can trust
