No one is going to be a hero.

No one is going to be a hero.

Several heads are impaled on spikes in the backstreets of District 23. A Capo and a rather large group of Soldatos stands nearby, as a small crowd of lower-ranked Fixers and Rats stare at the corpses of their loved ones.

...Y'all know why I'm still here right?

The Capo takes a drag of his cigar, and waits for an answer from the small gathering. Though, everyone there knws better than to speak to a high-ranked member of the Thumb.

Figured none of you brats would say anything... So I'll tell ya myself. I'm here to make sure none of y'all decide you wanna be the hero here.

A Fixer in the crowd tries to pull out one of his weapons to attack the Capo, but Javier sees the Fixer try to grab his weapon, and draws his revolver before shooting the Fixer in the gut.

Just like that.

He takes another drag of his cigar, and walks toward the Fixer, before grabbing him by the head.

...I think y'all need another reminder to stay the fuck down.

In an instant, he squeezes the head of the Fixer tightly, before crushing his skull with his hand.

Soldatos... Take care of the crowd, would ya?

Javier walks off, and the Soldatos open fire on the crowd.

Executions and whatnot

Any of ya'll got good kills? Personally, best one I've had since last week was this Night Awls guy who got caught straight in the crossfire of a turf war.

For those curious, no, unfortunately it wasn't the one last seen with the Tiangang Star but it was one of the last remaining ones in hiding.

Can does anyone have a Uptie 4, Level 60 Middle Don I can use?

I'm going to try Line 2 of RR6, but my Middle team is missing only Don (and not enough shards to get her as of now).

​

Thanks!

Javier's Punishment

"¿Por qué demonios tenía que ser tan difícil!? This wasn't supposed to happen... why was he even there to see me kill- sigh y'know what, it's a damn miracle I wasn't executed on the spot. Suppose the only thing left to do now is face... Solomon."

(ooc) Sorry my camera kinda made things worse, and the fact I screwed up the hair. Anyways Javier will have to face u/Budget-Fennel7023 or Solomon in a friendly duel for killing that Capo in the last post.

A Vengeance Completed

(Small story for Javier)

Night falls upon the City, as a figure walks to his superior's room.

"What do you want, Capo Primo...?"

"You are a disgusting piece of shit you know that?"

"You dare speak to a superior Capo like that?! I will have your-"

"You will have nothing! I assure you, there's nothing you can take that I will give."

The Capo I throws his cigarette to the ground and stamps it out, taking his E.G.O out of his pocket and loading it into his revolver.

"Do you even recognize me...? Go on, try to remember. If it helps, picture me as a... Big Brother."

The superior to the Capo I recognizes his Junior's face from years past, when the superior was a mere Soldato III.

Dread fills the face of the once proud superior, as he realizes what the Capo I came to him for. He wanted his vengeance.

"Finally figured it out, did you? You slaughtered dozens upon dozens of my siblings, and took even took out some fellow Big Siblings with your buddies."

The former Big Brother spins his revolver in his left hand, grinning at the trembling Capo in front of him.

The Capo reaches for his gun, desperately crawling away from his Junior, to no avail. The Junior slams his foot on the back of the Capo, and pulls the hammer down on his revolver.

"Please! Spare me! I'll do anything...! Promote you, give you all the money I have... Just let me live!"

But the former Big Brother does not reply, he only reaches into his coat and pulls out his dusty and old Book of Vengeance.

"Hm... Let's see what you'll be getting yeah?

He flips through the pages of his Book, gently turning each page.

"Title 56, Section 143... Row T.... Ah yes! Complete and total extermination."

With the punishment decided, the Big Brother puts away his revolver, and clenches his fist, using the remaining power of his faded tattoos to kill the Capo.

Mental stability in the Thumb

So I've been hearing more and more cases lately of our Soldatos or other members of the Thumb distorting, which is a bit of a pain. So I've gone and went to M Corp to get some moonstones that will (hopefully) prevent most of you all from Distorting. There's only so many I could buy though so first come, first serve.

Any members in the area (M Corp), I got some people who stole fabric from one of our subsidiaries.

Not too sure who they were, the Kurokumo fellas who got robbed didn't give a good description but keep your eyes peeled

Planning to embark to The Library

As per a Capo's instruction in order for me to be promoted to a Capo I, I will accept an invitation I got from the Library phenomenon and attempt to bring back the head of one of the Librarians. If any Soldatos want, they can accompany me. Seeing as there have been next to no survivors, I see my chances of returning as very low.

Update Report: Manifesting E.G.O and hunting down a Distortion.

After asking a nearby Capo to scold me and berate me, and then promply slapping a member of the Middle, I managed to hear the voice by the name of 'Carmen' who tried to console me. In the moment despite the fact I had intentionally caused all this, her words seemed to resonate with my situation. Not just in that time, but for all my struggles throughout my time here in the Thumb and before it. However, I let go of the warmth and promptly denied her statements. When I woke up, I had a bullet in my hand with some threads around it, and when I loaded it into my rifle it shot way quicker than I expected and did not run out of ammo. I might be in the book of some Middle members but I believe I have manifested my own E.G.O I call "Trigger Happy".

I will also be using the armor that the Capo I who made the workshop gave me to hunt the Distortion. I am currently in District 12 to kill the beast, and seeking out its hideout.

u/Ghost-Dragon812 — 3 months ago

In light of a recent Distortion wrecking havoc on the workshop (and another thing), I shall be studying Psychoments or as some call them "E.G.O"

With enough luck I will be able to manifest one of my own

u/Ghost-Dragon812 — 3 months ago

I have created a weapon I think would be useful.

I call it the "Thomas Gun" and I believe it to be useful for quickly firing off several rounds. Of course, I believe only higher-up members should fire this, as the ammunition costs will be expensive should the gun be fired without proper measure.
