It was a nice and sunny day down in south-side Chicago. Wandering down her headquarters she looked out of the window. Her eye catches the Statue of Pantiebedropping. Her great grandmother once took care of this statue when she had her own headquarters. Senza was still very pleased she had the opportunity to walk in her footsteps. In her mothers diary she had read that this statue held a lot of value. Kurgan might know it too. As she reminisces about the past the door of her office opened. She turned around and noticed Karen walking in.

“You needed to see me?” Karen asks.
 “Yes please take a seat. You know you have proven yourself as a great friend, and a great righthandwoman. You as my protege have come a long way once you set foot on these shores. And because I am all for giving the youngsters the opportunity to lead their own family, I would like to give that opportunity to you. You know you can always come to me whenever there is a problem or an issue you need to deal with.” Senza pauses a bit and looks at Karen. It seems as if she isn't aware of what is about to happen.

“It has been a pleasure for me working closely with you. But I feel it is time for you to spread your wings and move to another headquarters. I have found the perfect headquarters here in South-Side.
Please follow me.” Senza says as she reaches for the key which lay in front of Karen on her desk.

As they make their way outside they walk towards the big gate which surrounds Senza’s headquarters. It can never be secure enough. The guard dogs are barking as they pass them. Karen follows her silently looking straight forward.

They turn to the right and keep walking for about 10 minutes untill they reach Karen’s own headquarters. Senza opens the door with the key she was holding and then turns towards Karen. “I believe this one is yours.” Senza says smiling as she hands Karen the key. “Now let’s go inside!” Senza walks in and turns on the lights. In the middle of the hallway stands a big table  with glasses filled with champagne. Around the table and in the hallway the family has gathered and they all yell “Congratulations Karen.”

“Time to grab a glass and start building a better South-Side!” Senza says as she looks at Karen. 

Slumping back in the chair, she grabbed the closest glass of scotch, and downed it.   She had tried to work hard not for personal opportunity but for the family as with Curiosity before.

Still looking confused she looked up with a simple why me type look as she thought of the opportunity and work ahead of her.

"I thank you for this fine opportunity, i have tried my best to serve but of course would not of learnt the who and whats of this world without you"

Pouring another Scotch to recover from the shock

"I have some names in mind, who will help me get off to a great start, we have been lucky to have a great group behind us"

Sipping the scotch, she smiled as she looked deeply into the glass

"and thanks to those who never managed to make it along the journey with us"

Congrats on making it to the semi top of the food chain Karen

I do hope you make a good run of it for yourself and the rest of the world.

Otiag was strolling down the streets of CH when hears word that Senza's rhm Karen has been authed into her own HQ. He quickly turns his direction towards the HQ where he is told she is at. Upon arrival he does indeed see a congratulation party well under way, he walks up and shakes Karen's hand. "Congratulations Karen"

Bonkers had just arrived back in Chicago from north of the border with several crates of liquor. Seeing the celebrations outside the HQ he screeched to a halt and hopped out of the car. Senza's bodyguards reached for their holstered weapons, before spotting that it was just Bonkers.

wonderful news guys! I've definitely got something back here suitable for the occasion

Bonkers pulls out a crate of champagne and begins to spray Senza and Karen...he's a bit bonkers...

Straggling down the streets of Southside Kodak noticed the opening of a new headquarters. As people started to gather around, Kodak lights a joint and joins the celebrations.

"Congratulations to you Karen and the city of Chicago."

Congratulations to Chicago! All the best Karen I hope you make Senza one proud Godfather!

Backup had been a man of few words since returning to La Cosa Nostra to follow in the footsteps of his ancestors. He had usually preferred to sit on the sidelines, listening to what was said in the streets - rather than contributing himself. However, the relevance of this decision to his operations in Chicago, as well as sheer excitement meant that he needed to break this silence. 

Firstly, Senza. Congratulations on taking up the esteemed role of Godfather of South Side Chicago. I'm delighted for you and hope that you will indeed oversee the rebuilding of our district following the wars that have put La Cosa Nostra on its knees.

Backup kisses Senza's ring, before turning to Karen. 

Karen, congratulations on being authorised to set up shop. I look forward to working with you in the future and am eagerly anticipating what the future holds for our family and district. 

Backup smiles at the onlookers from other cities before heading off to take care of his collections in the neighbourhood. 

Raises a glass in the air towards the crowd that had formed for both Godfather Senza and Don Karen

Congratulations to both of you on this accomplishment.

You survived and have proven to be strong leaders and capable of keeping your family alive and prospering and for that I am grateful to be on this journey as well with you Karen.

Nods his head, looks down at his gold Rolex and then looks at Karen before jumping into the limousine. They had a meeting to be at in 15 minutes and this was the type of meeting they could not be late to as they were handing out a new pair of cement shoes and those things dry quick

Sophia has finally made her way back to Chicago, she had been so busy handling business elsewhere that she hadn't been home in what felt like forever. She knew though before she headed home she had something that she needed to do. She hailed a cab and told the driver to take her directly to the south side, cause some big things had happened since she had been gone.

After a couple minutes the cab pulled up to the location she had requested, there was still a little bit of a crowd and in the middle of it were the two people that she came there to see.

"First off I would like to congratulate you Senza in taking the role of Godmother, you have my total respect and I wish you the best."

Sophia turned to look at Karen.

"Congratulations to you as well ma'am on your headquarters. May I add that new suit of yours looks amazing."

Not wanting to intrude for too long, Sophia slowly backed out of the crowd. She couldn't wait to get home and finally take her shoes off.

Hawkeye makes his way up to his good friend Karen and hands her a thick envelope after kissing her on both cheeks and nodding in respect 

"True congratulations my friend its an honour to serve at your side and hope to help rebuild the great city of Chicago"

He steps away and shakes hands and clicks glasses with all the other well wishers present
