Note: This is decidated to TheProfessional, a GTA YouTuber whose playthrough of GTA4 give me a in depth look into the HD Universe of Liberty City (I did play CW, but never finished it.). As for the choices: Ivan was spared, the terrorist was killed, Playboy X was killed, Clarence was spared only to get himself killed on his second encounter, Francis McReary was killed, Cherise was spared, and Darko was spared.
Note 2: This takes place during the events of entries 6-8.
While things are popping with BRWY and Team Manor, we cut over to Liberty City. Den of the darker and grittier side of crime, where we see what Ivory and company are doing in their Liberty City Side Story…
Friday nights were brisk and cold in Liberty City and Alderney, even if it was summer. Ivory had dressed in a dark Leather Jacket with a cream Track Top, Splinter Cap, tan tracksuit pants, black gold Totem earring, black tassel scarf, sand tactical gloves, a neon iFruit Snap watch, a Leaf Cubain chain, a brown belt, and black biker boots. At the moment, she was in Port Tudor, Alderney at its underground gun shop buying some ammo.
"Looking for war?" The cashier asked.
"Yes, Buck. Some dumb bastard apparently sent a hitman after a friend of mine. Someone in the Lost here." Ivory said as Buck began to sweat. "And before you think of getting that combat pistol under your desk, I'll have a clean shot to your shoulders. And you're alone…while I have friends outside."
"Ok, I'll talk. It's Dogg. He's been trying to organize a group of bikers to go to LS to help with the chapter there. Go after the guy who killed Johnny and that guy's allies! Hell, he's gathering to go after that Serbian that swings by here tomorrow." Buck exclaimed. "I didn't want a part of it because I like my business is selling guns underground. I make good money and I have kids to put through private school!"
"Where can I find him and his buddies?" Ivory asked sternly.
"In a townhouse in Alderney. Emery Street in Tudor. Three story townhouse, it became the new headquarters of the Lost. Dogg's actually their leader." Buck explained.
"And should I worry about you warning him?" Ivory asked cocking an Assault Shotgun.
"No. To be fair, I make more money in this shop than loyalty with the Lost. After the Lost fell in 2008, me and Angus put that behind. We had a friend who con…wait, the person who was the target. Was it Velvet? Because if it was…Angus and I would want in to help." Buck said as she nodded. "Then here."
He tossed her an RPG saying it was on the house before he told her to visit the Pay 'n' Spray as Angus will have something for her. She nodded and left before getting on her phone calling up Fulani.
"Fulani, where are you?" Ivory said walking on the streets.
"Northwood, up in Niko's pad. In the midst of playing video games with him and some friends. And it seems little Andrej has beaten us again…" Fulani said.
Ivory could hear Niko curse in Serbian along with some laughter.
"Good, get armed and get ready. Buck spilled on who ordered the hit on Velvet. Apparently, a surviving OG Lost MC decided to play big man. This asshole is gathering a group to go after Niko as well…which means they're going to hit Bellic Enterprises." Ivory said. "Met up at the mansion in Westdyke."
She hung up as Fulani tossed in the controller.
"Niko, we got a threat hitting too close to home." Fulani said as Niko's brow furrowed.
Three years of relative 'peace' had not exactly dulled his skills. Yes, he had a steady job as a cab driver, but he did the occasional underground job mostly in wanting to stamp out any Pegorino stragglers. He had more of a reason too with his nephew, Andrej, around. If anything, Niko had a rep of being a feared one-man army right behind Liberty's Old Shadow.
"Who is it, this time?" Roman asked with a fierce look on his eyes.
Of course, Niko would not be hosting game night without friends and family. Mallorie, Roman, Dwayne, Huang Lee, and Little Jacob were there as well.
"One of the remnants of the old Lost MC. Wants to avenge his old leader among other things." Fulani said getting up. "Ivory's calling for a meetup in Westdyke. You know the place."
"Pegorino's old place. I wonder how she managed to secure it." Niko joked.
"Either way, we gwan help." Little Jacob said.
"I'd help, but I got a meeting to attend. Triad boss stuff." Huang said getting up. "Ling's probably going to be mad I even skipped away to relax."
"Whipped, much?" Roman joked.
Everyone (except the innocent Andrej) shot Roman a look that basically, 'Really? You have room to talk?'.
"Papa, wasn't mama whipping you in your room yesterday?" Andrej said answerly.
Roman could only sputter while Mallorie bore no shame about that. Niko was fighting the urge to laugh in this cousin's face.
"Ima li vaša supruga kavez za malog Romana?" Fulani joked in Serbian as Niko started laughing.
"She does not." Roman pouted.
"Why would mama have a cage for you, papa?" Andrej asked as Roman went red.
"It's getting late. How about we head home? I'll get you some ice cream if you completely forget what you heard." Roman said as Andrej's look turned a grin.
"I'd rather 10 dollars." Andrej said innocently.
"Lasice." Roman said giving it up.
"Bye, Uncle Niko. Bye Uncle Dwayne, Uncle Jacob, Uncle Huang, and Miss Fulani." Andrej said as he left his parents.
Huang left as well.
"I'd help, but I got to attend that meeting with some of my boys. We're sorting out an alliance." Dwayne remarked with an air of sheepishness. "Jiao is helping me with a suit."
"Why so nervous? You wore a suit six years ago when you married her." Niko said as Fulani got her purse.
"You owe Velvet for that." Fulani said as Little Jacob left.
"To be fair, I never figure I'd get married or have kids." Dwayne remarked.
"At least Ling and Xin are fully grown. You only have to worry about Lien." Fulani said dryly.
"You know, everyday I just…can't believe I got that far." Dwayne said with a chuckle. "I don't even think about Cherise like I used to. Be seeing you guys."
He left with Fulani following. Niko went to his wardrobe and changed to the Claude Outfit. Coming out, he thought of calling Claude for help. Ironically, his phone wound up ringing and he saw that it was Ivan.
"Bytchkov." Niko said as he answered. "What can I do for you? How's Ilyena?"
"She's good. Business is ok, but I got an issue with a collection. And I want your services to help for this. You see…my step-daughter is going out on a collection on some money loant out to a two clients. A Lost MC member and an Angels of Death member. Now we can't have them been finding out I loant them both money."
"Well shit, it's your lucky day. I was just on the way there…the Lost MC played stupid by threatening my family and Velvet." Niko said sternly.
"Allow me to ensure that the Lost are put on my Blacklist after you collect the cash. Good luck, Niko." Ivan said before hanging up.
Anna would call shortly after and the former Mayfia princess sounded excited to work with Niko. Niko always figured she would have hated him given he killed one of her exes and maimed another on her parents' orders.
[-GTR-]
Shinnecock Avenue. Where the upper class of Hove Beach live and served as the hideaway of a legend, a sleeping giant. In what was the mansion of the Faustin family, was now the mansion of the Speed family. Claude was finishing dinner with Misty and Maria. The television was airing some show. Claude sat in his comforter only for the phone to ring.
Maria took it up.
"Speed residence. Oh, hey Mr. Bellic. What can do you for?" Maria drawled. "Aid on work? I'll ask. Claude, baby. You down for a job? Niko could use your help."
Claude could only rise from his chair with an excited grin that told Maria all she had to hear.
"Where to meet?" Maria asked. "He's interested."
She nodded before hanging up.
"Claude, baby. You're meeting up with the others in a mansion in Westdyke, Alderney." Maria said as Misty raised an eyebrow.
"Uh, Claude? Your usual clothes for this are at the cleaners after your last job." Misty said as Claude sighed.
"Blood is so hard to get out of leather." He said under his breath. "I guess I can use something else."
He did pay about 20k for his trademark leather jacket to be cleaned and tailored to perfection. He had the money to do so.
"I passed by a nice clothing shop. I got a few new clothes for you in your wardrobe." Maria said as Claude went up to his room.
Claude settled for a gray golf jacket, stonewashed jeans, motorcycle boots, and new oliver fingerless gloves. If anything, he would admit Maria had an eye for good clothes. He came down.
"Good luck." Misty said as he nodded.
He went out getting into the Turimso right outside the house smirking that the house still spawned the cars of the previous owners before racing into the streets. Ivory sat in the mansion waiting as her maid, Lupe gave her the requested smoothie.
"Thank you, Lupe. How's your second job doing?" Ivory asked before taking a drink.
"I actually quit that last week. The boss was a total cree…" Lupe said was cut off by the door opening. "We have a guest?"
Fulani came dressed for action with a Peachy Chic Track Jacket, Leopard Tank top, coffee skinny jeans, white iFruit Snap, Rose Heart necklace, gray Digital Armored gloves, Peachy Chic Leopard Fitted Cap, Gold LS Pendant, and Downtown Lowtops. Her faunus tail was wrapped around her waist. She was followed by Niko. Claude was last to arrive and gave Niko a dirty look for the choice in clothes.
"What? You expect me to wear a suit?" Niko asked. "Look I know it's your trademark, it just felt right for the night."
Claude let it go admitting to himself that Niko did look good in them.
"Anyway, let me get on the details on the job." Ivory said before going into detail.
"Ok, but I got one thing to deal with one. Ivan's calling in a debt collection on both the Angels of Death and the Lost MC. I was going to pick up his step-daughter to go collect on them. I want to suggest you let me collect from AoDs first then we all go in on the Lost." Niko suggested as he got nods of approval from Fulani and Ivory.
"In the garage, there's a gift for you. I owe you one for your help in an earlier job and I keep to my word." Ivory remarked. "Fully upgraded, horn blares your song, dark blue tire smoke, grey rims, and a dark blue paintjob."
"Drink, sir and madam?" Lupe said as Claude made a gesture.
"Root beer for him." Ivory said translating.
"Make it two. We can have booze after the job." Fulani said as Niko left.
Niko went over to the first garage which opened to show an (Armored) Cognoscenti Cabrio with the top up. He went in confidently admiring the work on it as he started it noticing the glow of the white neon around it. He drove it out glad he came here by taxi. He called up Anna who answered rather chipper.
"Hey Niko, good to hear from you. I'll be waiting at Port Tudor…you know at the underground place." Anna said before she hung up.
He drove over seeing Anna leaning against the payphone Niko used to frequent. Eight years had her grow and fully mature out. Her wine red skirt suit, black tie, brown pantyhose, red heeled fur lined boots, lipstick, dark grey ski jacket, stud earrings, and hair over the eye gave her a mature look. Niko was basically reminded of Michelle (or Karen…or whatever her name was). Anna smiled seeing him up before slipping on her black down jacket on her shoulders before getting in the car.
"I had to swing over at Buck's. I needed to pick up some body armor and a pair of Combat Pistols. I don't want to make the same mistake and go without protection like last time." Anna said calmly. "You'll have proper backup."
"Well, let's hope it doesn't come to that with the Angels of Death." Niko joked as he began driving. "But it's good, you came prepared. How's things?"
"I'm adjusting to life in Alderney. Got my own place in Mohawk Avenue, I needed an apartment of my own…even if it is all the way in Liberty. Leave my mother and stepdad to their penthouse." Anna said wistfully. "And you?"
"Things are okay." Niko remarked.
"That's good. We're heading to AoD clubhouse in North Holland." Anna said as Niko blinked. "What?"
"If I knew that it was in Liberty, I would hav…ok, we may have to deal with the Lost first." Niko said before explaining everything.
"Well shit, I guess we're collecting off corpses. Ok, at least let me try and see if I can get the money owed." Anna said as Niko called up the others. "Normally, the AoD would do the deal in a diner on Emery Street, but they rather me come to North Holland."
Getting the call, the other three sprang to action. Claude got in his car, Fulani wheeled out her Diablous Custom out of the garage revving the engine, and Ivory raced out her Nightblade . The three all took off for Tudor. Ironically, they all met at the diner at Emery Street.
"Ok, one of you is going to need to take Anna there first to collect on owed cash. Once Anna's out, we go in." Niko remarked.
"I'll do it. You two are a bit too infamous and Ivory likes making dramatic enterances." Fulani said as she got on her motorcycle helmet.
Anna got on Fulani's bike before riding away. Ivory suggested to the two on making a dramatic entrance with a cackle.
[Cues: Liberty City Rock – "All Your Boyz" by Maximum Penalty]
Hard rock blared from the house as Fulani and Anna arrived. It was clear a party was going on. The two took off their helmets leaving it on the bike that Fulani a good enough distance away. The two walked up to the door. The house which was once in a sorry state in '08 was somewhat in a better state now with the Lost using it as their new clubhouse as most considered the land where the old one was to be cursed. The two bikers outside on door duty noticed the two ladies coming up.
"A bit overdressed there, ladies?" One said eyeing them up.
"We're not strippers. We're here on business. I'm from Shoreside Investments and Lending Company here to collect on the loan that your MC made." Anna said showing them her business card.
The biker looked that card and then to Fulani.
"Don't mind her. She's just here in case anything goes wrong. I just want to ensure the money your group loant is paid back." Anna said getting a paper out. "Here's a copy of the agreement."
The second biker looked that and noticed the signature of their Club Secretary and President with the promised date to pay the loan. That biker facepalmed.
"Miss, I am so sorry. Our president's been busy stroking his hate boner for that Serb guy that he forgot about this. Please wait, I'll deal with this." The second biker said before going in.
It had been just ten minutes before he came out clearly fuming and looked at Anna with a look of empathy.
"Yeah, well…I told him, and Dogg just laughed it off before taking the paper and burning it. As if that nullifies the agreement." The second biker said shaking his head.
"I guess I have to do things the hard way. You two have been cooparative…so let me give you some free advice. You should leave…just get on your bikes and make yourselves scarce. Actually, just get the hell out of Alderney for the night." Anna said in a low tone of voice.
The two froze before they saw the two of them in the shadows. The Old Ghost of Liberty and Niko Bellic just watching the house. The two of them locked eyes for a moment and the bikers flinched.
"Um, hey Ricardo? You want to go clubbing?"
"Rowe, I would like to."
The two bikers got to their bikes and rode away.
"Smart move." Ivory said walking up. "So, care for me to light up the night?"
Anna and Fulani took steps back as Ivory raised up her hand forming several golf-sized balls of light in her hands. Her semblance for making good concussive flashbangs before she opened the door throwing several of them in.
BOOM! The blast had blinded the partygoers and blew back some fools too close to it. That was when the party of players (and Anna) charged in gun blazings.
"Sorry to crash your party, but I don't give a shit!" Niko roared emptying his Carbine Rifle into Lost MC members.
Claude rolled his eyes at Niko before simply sniping them out with a Combat Pistol. Lost MC members came in the backdoor only for Anna to snatch a Pipe Bomb off a fallen biker and throw it at them. BOOM! Bikers went flying burnt and bloodied before the five went upstairs. Ivory took the lead using a tendril of light to grab a biker by his neck and asking where their leader was.
"Third floor!"
SNAP! Ivory snapped his neck before tossing him down the stairs as everyone else opened fire. Niko was furious that his family was target and swapped to a minigun to just row down the poor saps. Anna was lazily collecting the money off the bodies…after all she had a job to collect on debt. On the third floor, Dogg was about to take LSD to trip balls only for the sectratary to rush in.
"This better be go-"
"NO ONE FUCKS WITH MY FAMILY!"
Dogg went ghost white.
"He's not alone. The Old Ghost of Liberty and some others are with him! We need to…"
Dogg bolted for a window, not before handcuffing the sectratary to a bed post to leave him for the wolves as he went out the window. SMASH! Fulani kicked the door open to see the downed sectratary.
"Dogg left through the window. He's probably going to the old mansion…in Westdyke." The sectratary said in a panic.
"The one abandoned?" Niko asked as the terrified sectratary nodded.
"I believe you owe the company I work for some money." Anna said sternly. "As a lender, I don't take kindly to being screwed out of pay. Sadly, you've been written off. I can't have clients using our money to go after dear friends and allies."
She was one to empty a SMG in his face before taking the cash out of his wallet.
"I'll make a call to collect on the motorcycles. Shoreside can use them as collateral." Anna said wiping sweat of her face. "If you guys want any bikes, now's the time."
"We're good. I got a custom one back home." Niko said as Claude shook his head.
"All right. I gathered about 30k off the bodies of everyone here. We lent those idiots about 350k." Anna said as they all left the building.
[Music Ends]
Anna noticed a Wolfsbane that she decided to take for herself.
"We need to go after Dogg, the sooner the better." Niko said going to his car.
Everyone left for Westdyke. Arriving at the old mansion, they heard the revving of an engine.
"Shit, that's a Sultan RS." Niko said as one came speeding out of the hill.
Ivory got in the way to make a platform of light…a ramp that Dogg drove up on sending him into the air. Niko was surprised that Anna sprang into action with an Assault Rifle, firing rounds on the car's underside as it was in the air. Claude, Fulani, and Niko took out the tires causing the car to crash into the curb. Ivory dispelled the platform as she stormed up to throw Dogg out of the car. Niko shot him in the leg.
"You fucking bastard! You and your friends ruined us!" Dogg screamed.
"And why did that warrant this?" Anna asked.
"I mean, Niko did kill Jason, Jim, and a good chunk of the Broker branch. Considering Johnny's dead, and Ivory's practically made the Lost MC a punching bag for years now." Fulani said. "And what we just did was insult to injury."
Dogg tried to pull a grenade only for it to be shot out of his hand by Claude.
"I want my money, Dogg. If you just paid me, I could have been inclined to let you live but you had to be stupid." Anna said annoyed. "I guess the Angels of Death are better lenders than you."
"You red bi-"
Niko finished him off.
Anna checked the car and the body. 200k in cash and a key to a storage locker which she pocketed.
"Job's done…at least the first half." Anna said handing Claude, Ivory, and Fulani 20k each. "Thanks, Niko and I can handle the rest."
"Well, I'll be seeing you two later." Ivory said getting her car. "Anna, let's go shopping or something tomorrow."
The three took their leave as Niko noticed he had a wanted star.
"We should go." Niko said taking up the fallen grenade before pulling the pin.
He tossed it in the dead man's lap.
"I'll lose the cops. I'll meet you at Diner Bar Cocktails on Nemuri Street." Niko said as Anna raced off.
The cops? Nothing Niko could not handle as he opened fire on several officers before getting to his car and driving away. He lost them and he arrived at the bar to see her having a cup of coffee and offering one to Niko.
"Thanks." Niko said taking it. "By the way, nice shooting there. You in one piece?"
"Minor injuries. Besides, you guys ate more bullets than me." Anna joked. "But thanks, I hate the matter that we have to do things the hard way, but it can't be helped."
"At least you got your money back. You got the bikes collected?" Niko asked.
"Yeah. My step-dad played smart hiring up some guys who were apart of my dad's old mafiya but did not join Dimitri. Everyone knew he had everything to do with my dad's death." Anna remarked. "And legal work and a place in Alderney away from you and Dimitri's blood feud was motivation enough. Bikes are being collected along with cars of the Lost with a cache of weapons. At least the company can be armed a bit better, even if my mom isn't a fan."
"Ilyena was always the peaceful one." Niko remarked sipping his coffee.
"And I grew up to realize I had to be the one to fight for her. My step-dad too…he keeps mom happy." Anna said wistfully. "I still have you to thank for sparing him."
"As if I was going to kill some guy for Vlad. Fucking waste of time only got a bullet to his face from me." Niko said finishing his coffee.
"Jeez it seems you're the reason everything in Alderney tied together. You know Niko, there's something I want to ask. You're not seeing anyone…are you?" Anna spoke as Niko looked caught off-guard.
"I'm pretty sure your father would have an issue." Niko said sheepishly.
"He knows I like you." Anna said surprising him again. "I just wanted to wait for the moment to ask."
"And your mother?" Niko asked.
"Niko, I'm 28 and considering the last men I had involved in my life, you'd be a major step up." Anna said.
"Sorry, I'm just not used to being asked out. But this is America, after all." Niko said as Anna play punched his shoulder.
"After we deal with the AoD, how about we do something? If it ain't too late." Anna said going to her motorcycle.
Niko wondered if everything he did and the choices he made were rewarding him for once. Not like he had a girlfriend he actually liked at the moment.
[~GTA~]
"Angus, thanks for the bike man. An Apocalyspe Deathbike fully armed is a treat." Ivory said as to him.
"Your company helped me to walk again." Angus said standing. "Cybernetics in my legs and back cost nearly half that bike and its mods."
"It's good to know you got my back. Has Buck considered my offer?" Ivory said as she checked out the bike.
"He has, but he decided to work with some guy in Los Santos. Spirit or something, working to work on circulating the weapons around. Ammu-Nation here thinks it's smart to crank up their prices. Only making it easier for people to go underground." Angus remarked. "A shame on what happened to Johnny though. He let that bitch and the ice ruin him."
"His simping was going to get him killed soon enough, but I am glad you wised up and fully left the Lost to join as apart of Twilight Company's Liberty and Alderney operations." Ivory said shaking his hand.
"Like I said, you got me my legs back." Angus said. "Honestly, you're a pretty boss to work. You may have vices, but you're at least not one for drugs."
"Call up Shoreside Lending, tell them Ivory sent you. There's some bikes in need of moving and you can help." Ivory said getting on her new bike. "Hang onto my Diablous for me."
He nodded and Ivory left the Pay 'n' Spray.
(A/N: If anyone is interested, I could make a special flashback compliation focusing on past events on CFVY in Liberty City years ago. I do have five moments in mind I want to do: The scene with Darko, Velvet's aftermath in dealing with Coco's betrayal, and at least one moment with Johnny, Niko, and Luis each. Now we return to LS.)
