Strongarm came out of the backroom at the sound of the bell to find the others looking out into the bar at whoever walked in, "Oh no, I know who those two are. What are they doing in this city?" Strongarm heard one of the waiters say with fear clouding his voice. She goes over to the door and takes a look to see who they're talking about.

"Who-who are they?" One of the other waitresses asked.

"They're known as Thunderhoof and Steeljaw, they own a good portion of Cybertron. Either taking by force or buying the properties. No one crosses them or rejects their offer unless they want to join the Al-spark."

Strongarm listened as she watched the pair sit at a table with Jawsplitter, must be new associates. She doesn't recall ever seeing them and she's seen pretty much every bot Jawsplitter has associated with. She grew up in this city and as far as she can remember the city has always been occupied by the mobs. She still remembers when Jawsplitter took over the city, she was only a sparkling but she remembers because that was the day her parents died.

She can still recall all the fighting and Energon that was shed. It was no peaceful negotiation, Jawsplitter took the city by force. Strongarm's parents got caught up in the fight to protect their home and her and Jawsplitter's guys gunned them down. Strongarm was in her hiding place watching the whole thing unfold through a crack. She was later found by Jawsplitter himself when he combed through the home for any survivors and she knew she was done for.

Even though she was just a little sparkling she tried to fight back, she wasn't gonna be offlined without a fight. That was when Jawsplitter first saw her fighting spirit and knew there was something in her worth keeping her alive. He figured that if she was trained right then she would become a great fighter and fight for him. So he spared her and took her in and over time he came to see her as a daughter. But when she came of age to join his mob she straight up refused, she told him she would never be apart of his group and wants nothing to do with him.

But no matter what she said he never got angry with her or even had her executed, he just kept trying to get her to join and continued talking to her as if she was his daughter. When she hit the age to mate and she had her first heat cycle a few of Jawsplitter's guys tried everything they could to mate with her but she refused to mate with any of them. She would rather be offlined than mate with a mobster.

"They need to be served. But who will go serve them?"

All the waiters and waitresses stepped away from the door in fear, all of them too afraid to go out there. Strongarm rolled her optics, "I'll do it. I'm not afraid of them."

"O-of course you're not, you're Jawsplitter's daughter. None of them would dare touch you." One of the waiters said. They all know about Strongarm's connection with Jawsplitter and his group and they all have done everything they could to befriend her and keep her happy, which really irritates Strongarm. She doesn't want bots to fear her, she doesn't want them to pretend to be friendly with her just because of her connection with Jawsplitter.

"I'm not his daughter!" Strongarm snapped at the waiter before she walked out.

When she got to the table Jawsplitter was naturally the first one to see her, "Ah hello dear, I was hoping you were working this evening."

She rolls her optics, Seriously? I'm always working. "Can I take your order?"

As Jawsplitter and the mech resembling an Earth elk gave her their order Strongarm noticed the mech resembling an Earth wolf looking her up and down. She gets so many mechs looking at her that way it's getting so annoying. When the wolf didn't give his order she felt her frustration build-up, "Hey Wolfie! What do you want?"

Her annoyance and frustration built up even more when the wolf looked into her optics and she saw a smirk form, This mech is so arrogant! I can't stand mechs like that!

"How about your name and comm number sweetspark."

HELL NO! THE NERVE OF THIS MECH! "Can I take your order?"

She clenched her dentures so she wouldn't say anything when the wolf chuckled then finally gave his order, Of course, they want overdose high-grade Energon! Do mobsters drink anything else?

As she walked back to the kitchen she could feel a bot's optics on her aft, she glances back to see the wolf checking out her aft. She quickly busts through the doors to the kitchen to get out of sight, then a loud clank is heard and she peeks back out to see the wolf rubbing his helm while the elk scolds him. She closes the door and walks over to the bot that makes the drinks to get what they ordered.

"Let me guess, overdose high-grade Energon."

"You got it."

"Coming right up." The bot says as he starts preparing the drinks.

"So what are they discussing?" One of the waiters came over to her and asked.

"Don't know, they weren't really talking when I went over there. Besides, it's none of our business."

Once Strongarm got the drinks she went back out to the table and heard Jawsplitter fixing to say something but stopped, Strongarm figured it was something really important that Jawsplitter didn't want her to know. Not yet anyway.

She glanced down at the box on the table and saw the credits, Is Jawsplitter selling them something? What could he be selling them that he hasn't informed me about? She can't help but wonder as she heads back to the kitchen, ignoring the fact that the wolf was once again checking her out and not noticing how confused he seemed to be over her reaction to the credits. The fact that there was no reaction.

After some time she heard the bell ring and she looks to see Jawsplitter and his group leave while the other two stay at the table and finish their drinks. Strongarm knows it's almost time for her shift to end and she can go home, so she plans on seeing Jawsplitter when she gets off and find out what the meeting was all about. She's gonna get to the bottom of this.
