Realistic or Modern A crime about gangs (WhatAmI & PrincessAveRedfern)

[PrincessAveRedfern]

Ave motioned for Anthony and grabbed his arm "Be safe." She said before she opened the door for him to meet back up with Chase across the street

Anthony walked in and looked at the hostess who just pointed to the seat. He nodded and walked over and grabbed the chair on the other side of the table across from her. "Hello." He said in his cold flat tone "I like to just get to the point. So I would like to get our situations solved so I can get back to my guys and you to yours. I will make things fast my name is Anthony, I took over once my parents were killed."

 

[ToastyPagan]

Gabriela smiles, "Nice to meet you, I am Gabriela, sorry about your parents, my mom was killed when working.... My dad abandoned the gang and made me take over a while ago" she says tightly. "I rather not have to fight this out, my father may be a monster but I am not, and you aren't weak but neither is my family. I'd rather not put civilians at danger over stupid feud." she says. She pulls the contract, "as far as I know, before your parents died they made a contract saying they wouldn't take territory, I respect it.... its a very in depth contract. yet, I would like to extend it and offer help if any of you need it at any point." she says. "We only live in houses on the line and own a building, we have no intentions of taking over we have the north and have fought for most of that. We don't need the entire state" she finishes. She sets it down and then pulls a new one. "You can read it over, in depth, I know the mistrust you have, especially since stories of my cruelness otherwise arise through investigations, some thing I am a guy" She laughs a little and slides it across the table. "It simply goes over the possibility of allies, not merging or anything to clarify, but if you need assistance from your rivals. We will aid, I would rather us get along being neighbors" she draws her hands to her lap and looks at Anthony.

|Derek and Jaxon are playing rock, paper, scissors and hot hands|

 

[PrincessAveRedfern]

Anthony grabbed the paper reading it over "I assumed you weren't after our goods when my sister came back with the missing box and the note. I have some idiots on my team I need to break back in. As for being allies, I do agree, it is better to be on the same side than enemies if you are going to be coming and going to get your supplies. For fighting, we try to stay out of it, we did gain some as well but I love to use fighting as a last resort. I had a feeling you were in charge, my sister you met the other day, she explained it all to me sounded like you didn't trust your guy to handle it all alone and I respect that. " He put the paperback down "I do not intend to hurt you or your guys, as long as everything is understood I feel confident that this will last and be good. I will let my guys know that if they see any of your guys you are allowed to come and go without the fear of being attacked."

Aveline sighed as she leaned against the building she hated not being beside her brother. She took her pocket knife out flicking it open and closed as she glared at Chase chewing his gum too loud. "I am sorry, can you stop chewing so loudly before I stab you in the leg!" she hissed and smirked

 

[ToastyPagan]

Gabriela chuckles, "My second Derek is okay when it comes to situations, just not meetings, and for your supplies, Derek happened to get it in his p.o box and noticed it wasn't his name." she says. She grabs a pen, "You can come onto our territory to get stuff, we just ask if you do business there to send us wanring. My work cell is on the last sheet if you need it.... and then you can sign whenever and I will have Jaxon make a copy and deliver it so we both have file" she hums, she suddenly grins remembering that he was the one who fixed her trucks tire. "we've already met before by the way" she smirks a little finding it amusing in the back of her mind.

 

[PrincessAveRedfern]

Anthony nodded and looked her up and down "Truck, right? From a few days ago, and my only not regular that I helped. As for my sister, I am sorry she went to your tattoo artist, she does sometimes do things without thinking it through. If I need any business done down their will gladly call you. I usually make people come to me so I don't go into other areas for too long." he grabbed the pen and signed his name trying to make a joke "need my blood print?" he beat himself up for it after not sure why he tried to be funny knowing he isn't

 

[ToastyPagan]

Gabreila chuckles, "My truck yeah, did I do good at covering my accent then?, and as for the tattoo thing, Jaxon is apart of us but he is pretty neutral when it comes to his work. He has a lot of background and it's his passion. I am glad she chose him, he is truly an amazing artist" she smiles brightly, her hard facade melted away. She was in a friendly mood now, and raises her eyebrow. "I haven't needed a blood print since I became leader of my gang" she jokes and holds back a laugh. "I will warn my people not to hurt your people if you come onto our territory, all the cities north are riddled with us and the little gangs that we do work with are terrified of us...no clue why" I hum, feigning disappointment. "It's a shame really, sometimes it gets boring being feared, I do most of my stuff digitally, I'm not old school, I meet face to face about contracts and allies old school though, I like to know who I am friendly with." she stands up and holds out her hand, "If you ever need a person to workout with I am usually and iron works every night, other then that, it was a pleasure doing business with you"


Jaxon and Derek started walking around knowing their boss would be fine, and is probably being friendly.

 

[PrincessAveRedfern]

Anthony smiled softly letting his face relax for once "Sounds good, I usually go for runs but maybe I will stop by once in a while just to keep the friendly face going. As long as okay with her going to him then I am too." He shook her hand "and glad you found the joke kind of funny, wanted to lighten the mood. Have a safe drive back, I have a meeting with my guys now to go over everything with them. You know where the shop is if ever need a fix"

Ave walked over to the door and waited for Anthony to come out. She had already waved Chase off to go and get everyone to the shop as she waited behind to go over everything with Anthony because she loved to know first. She put one foot up on the wall as she looked around.

 

[ToastyPagan]

Gabriela walked out of the restaurant with a small smile on her face and looks around for her idiot members. She pulls her phone and rings them, telling them in an aggressive manner to hurry their asses to her car or she'll leave them in Italian. She laughs as they here the word hurry over and over again down the road.

Jaxon and Derek arrive gasping for breathe glaring at gabs before getting into the mustang. "tell everyone we have a meeting in an hour sharp" She says while she gets in the car.

 

[PrincessAveRedfern]

Ave looked at Anth as he walked out and grabbed his arm "I will be riding with you. I need to know everything. Also wasn't that the girl from last night?" She hissed softly. On the way back to the shop she sat and listened to him nodding "Damn okay, good allies good" she said and stepped out of the car once back at the shop. "Well you talk with the guys I will be in my room, I have seen enough of Chase for one day"

Anthony walked into the office and looked around at everyone "SIT!" he said before getting to his desk "We have a lot to go over. I want everyone on the same page anyone steps out of line I will come after you!" he glared at them all. "Now, we have signed agreeing to be allies. They are allowed to come and go, if we need to go over to there said any reason you tell me I want to keep open ways with them. Now they have no designated days of when coming here, and if they need help HELP THEM. Also, Chase changes the PO box you used, we don't need more confusion going on with everyone. They won't open our stuff but still shouldn't need them to keep checking to make sure it's theirs and not ours." he said before standing up and storming out the door

 

[ToastyPagan]

Gabriela sits at her really long table in her warehouse, it was a good 20 minute drive into the forest. A lot of money well spent. She yawns ad watches as all her higher ranks flight in like they are in the military. "As you all know, I was just at a meeting with the leader who runs the south of the state, we have made a new contract stating we are now allies. If any of you guys get into a fight with one of their members, I will not protect you, that was your damn mistake. We have agreed to help them if they need it. So, Scarlett, since I have you guys on the border over there all the time you will be the go to with the people i have assigned to you." she pauses and then looks over to Derek, "When I have you do pickups and arrange mission boards, be mindful to not infiltrate their territory it's rude, if you need to go there talk to Anthony their leader" she says, making sure everyone else can hear. She pulls her hair up and looks around, "If any of you have a problem with it, stand now so I can find you your replacement and erase you" she crosses her arms. "Having allies while we're growing is probably the best idea yet, we already have enemies east and west" Scarlett spoke looking around and everyone nods.

Jaxon yawns and rests his palm on the floor laughing slightly, as no one stood to object.

"dismissed" gabriela spoke as she pulls her laptop to fill paperwork.

 

[PrincessAveRedfern]

Ave rubbed the back of her neck while eating a slice of pizza. She wanted to do something but knew that no one would be free at this hour. She looked over to Anthony walking in and smiled "Hello dear brother, you look relieved. Glad it went well today" she said throwing him a slice of pizza chuckling "don't eat it too fast it is really spicy"

Anth smiled "well thank you, but I do love spicy remember silly" he smiled and sat beside her "I am surprised that you are still home, you usually are always out on Saturdays. Unless it's because you are too worried that they arent going to listen. If that is the case don't I made it very very very clear. You know they wont go against me because know I take care of them"

 

[ToastyPagan]

Jaxon had headed back to the tattoo shop to work on some typical designs, his mind racing with how the alliance with the gang will go. Was there a plan Gabbie had or was it just so she didn't have to worrry of another rival? Gabbie had handle north east and west at the same time taking all of that. He shook his head drawing.

Gabriela started back home and stops at the gym, going to the punching bags to work on her Muay tai yet again.

 

[PrincessAveRedfern]

Ave nodded "would it be bad to get my other tattoo now? Really like how he does his work! I also may or may not have his number.. he texted me instructions to keep this one clean" she smirked

Anth sighed "OF course you have his number because you do things Aves way, always have. Go ahead I don't care. But I may go for a run since you decided I need to eat a slice of spicy pizza missy. But go do you, I love you sis" He said walking to his room "Be safe!" he screamed as he closed his door shaking his head.

Ave yelped and pulled out her phone: Uh hey, have room for a last-minute tattoo session?:

 

[ToastyPagan]

Jaxon looks down on his phone, and responds back: Any idea of what you'd like? And where so I can prep? He grabs new needles and sets everything up before she got there besides the art and such.

Gabriela was now on the treadmill running at sprints and resting for 20 seconds every 40 second sprint. She sighs, she was about 20 minutes into interval training. Her cardio for long distance was top peak. Yet her explosive movements needed work and it angered her.

 

[PrincessAveRedfern]

Ave replied to him: I was thinking a random one from the book and on my arm: she grabbed her jacket and decided she had wanted to walk to the shop and not drive

Anthony got dressed into basketball shorts and a t shirt and slid his sneakers on. He ran around the block looking at his heart rate meter every mile. Hoping to keep it in one place for a while to see how he's doing

 

[ToastyPagan]

Jax grinned as he read the text, and responds; alright, well I have books set up for you already and I am currently finishing a new one. He sends and sits in his bar stool finishing his new design. He sighs, yawning a little. "You can head home Tay, I have someone coming in before we shut down for the night and it's all good" He says. Tay nods eagerly and signs out leaving like a flash of lightning making Jaxon laugh.

Gabriela walks out the gym answering her fathers phone call, almost knowing she was going to start to cry at the end. "Gabriela, what the fuck were you thinking signing for an alliance without talking to me? That wasn't the plan" he yells in Italian through the phone. At this moment, Gab had decided she was going to not yell but talk in English back. "I though we needed the alliance papa, the only issue we'll have is if we want the same plot of land. In which we'll porbably negotiate. Papa, this is my gang not yours" she spoke softy. Her father sighs, "I didn't hand it to you to let you turn it into pudding" he yells. "Papa, in case you haven't realized, my members are more scared of me then you and they trust me more. You have no right-"
"NO right? I am your father- your mother died in our line of work- being soft" Gabriela cuts him off, "You have no right, you are the one who made her take that assignment, you are the one who left the states to go to Germany and restart, you are the one who left." she then hangs up and throws her phone across the street. Groaning in frustration and kicking her tire.

 

[PrincessAveRedfern]

Ave smiled as she walks into the shop "I have arrived!" she said putting her hands on the desk "I want the new one you just drew" she said not even looking at it wanting it before anyone else saw it. "Shall I take my seat? I am very excited"

Anthony stopped running when he heard her throw her phone and went over to her "Hey you okay? I heard your phone hit the ground. Why don't I buy you a drink you look like you can use one" He said putting his hand out. He waited for her to reply he didn't want to upset her but could tell she was stressed and he knew drinking always helped him get his thoughts out

 

[ToastyPagan]

Jaxon looked shocked, "yeah sure" he puts on a smile. "It is a skeleton hand holding a wilted rose, it is a lot of shading I hope you have water if not I can grab you some from the fridge" he smiles. He sits in his bar stool and turns his comfy chair for clients towards ave.

Gabriela huffs, "i'll gladly take a drink, I have to get my phone though, I need it with me to replace it so I keep my number" she says. Her voice faltered as she gave up with her image for a moment. She looks at anything straightening herself out, "we won't talk about this after tonight" she says. She jogs across the street to grab her phone before returning. "I apologize for ruining your run" she spoke shoving her phone in her pocket frustrated.

 

[PrincessAveRedfern]

Ave nodded "100% sure, and I will gladly take that water." She smiled at him "so you said last time you got this place after he passed that's really cool"

Anthony nodded "of course, and nah my run was almost over we are all good. I know a good bar where the drinks are free" he said walking towards it but not fast so she can stay close

 

[ToastyPagan]

Jaxon nodded and hands her a water, before snapping on gloves. "Yeah, my mentor was one of the best artists i have had, and he was super selective with his applicants" he smiles and starts the tattoo as he already had a stencile. He makes sure it was positioned the way it was needed to be to look the best. "So, what makes you want tattoos a few days apart?" he asks.

Gabriela follows behind Anthony almost right by him, "How often to you go to bars?" she asks looking at the sky for a moment while following him.

 

[PrincessAveRedfern]

Ave looked at him "Oh I have many reasons, but I always had issues with other artists work and I like yours. So might as well get them all in when I can" she said putting the water besides her "I also find tattoos to be so interesting, the way they are created and how they are put on the skin. Its almost breath taking the magic that happens" she closed her eyes with a smile on her face still

Anthony looked back at her "Not often, but one of my guys old man owns the place, and he's one of the few who know what I do. So since I watch his sons back I get free drinks. Whats your fave so I know what to order when we get there." he turned to look back in front of him and pointed to th bar "that is the place, so when ever your in town feel free to stop by, they all know about the alliance and know not to hurt anyone from your gang"

 

[ToastyPagan]

Jaxon continues his work, wiping away all th extra ink to continue his work. "I enjoy the feeling of tattoos, I have a high pain tolerance" he smiles, "It is why I am covered head to toe. My tattoos all connect by shading" he smiles as he continues, he switch the ink to a grey as he finished the outline so he can shade from the inside out.

Gabriella looks at him nodding, "that's so cool, and my go to is double shot of vodka. I am a very basic women" she says with a small smile. "my warehouse out of town has a pub in it's basement... so we never drink in public. My people like to party" she laughs a little.

 

[PrincessAveRedfern]

Ave chuckled alittle "Pain doesnt bother me, to be honest I like to feel the pain, lets me know I am still human. Must be why I love the idea of tattoos, little needle going in and out of your skin very fast." She watched him work "you are really good"

Anthony smirked "Sounds fun, I barley let my guys drink. My sister tends to do what she wants so I like to have a control on the rest of them. No need for one to get drunk and do something stupid. I hate cleaning up after them, they should know by now. But anyways lets get you your double shot of vodka and let you get all the stress out." He said as he walked over to the bar and giving the bartenders a fist pump while ordering her drink and his whisky on ice.

 

[ToastyPagan]

Jaxon smiles, "Thank you, I have been practicing" he says he switches back to black ink working of the shading a little more.

Gabriela smiles, "My guys get drunk every couple days, we have the pub because the people who stay at the warehouse wind down with alcohol. They all have certain stuff to meet. They go through training every day...." she explains. She grins as the vodka was handed to her and she downs it. She sets it down and thanks the bartender and then looks at Anthony, "Thanks for offering a drink, the gesture is appreciated" she smiles and sits done on one of the tall stools almost struggling to get onto it. Stupid tall chairs.

 

[PrincessAveRedfern]

Ave nodded smiling back she took a small sip of the water as she closed her eyes again to get more comfortable

Anth chuckled a little "Sorry, will have to make them a tad smaller for the girls didn't consider that when bringing you here. But yea of course. I know how it can get stressful and the throwing of the phone deffenitly told me you where. So figured you needed someone to just rant off too. Want another?" He said as he nodded to the bartender and at the owner
