Chapter 22: Buffalo Begins
Los Santos
Friday
The evening was relatively quiet at Trevor's trailer as he, Ron, and Wade all sat around having dinner while watching Impotent Rage as Ron was fiddling with a radio.
"I think I got the kinks out." Ron said.
"A man who says he has no kinks is a liar." Trevor jokes.
"Not those kinds of kinks. I've been practicing fixing up old pocket radios as a hobby. Surprisingly, a lot of people will pay for these kinds of things." Ron said, turning it on.
"Weazel News Radio! It is said that fortune favors the bold. Sadly, that did not extend to those playing the Texas Hold 'Em tables. A daring robbery was made today at the Vinewood Casino where four individuals stormed the casino tearing the place up and fighting off members of the Judas Priest Gang. Yes, that's what they ar-No, wait, I'm being told they are the Los Santos Sai-Ok, they can't be serious. Regardless, while details remain sketchy at best, early reports have said the GND will look into this. More on this daring robbery as the story unfolds. I'm Eric House, Weazel News."
Ron turned it off.
"Looks like there's a gang war going on. Know what? Let's check the news." Trevor said with a grin as he changed the channel.
What got Trevor amused was Weazel had a scrap of security footage which was grainy, but showed Yara firing off her minigun before throwing it up into the air to judo flip a mook before throwing another into a crap table. She caught the gun to finish him off.
"That's hot."
The three said in near unison.
"In related news, there was a fight on the idea between the…"
The newscaster sighed in disbelief. It did not help that the newscaster was Hispanic.
"Los Santos Saints…ok…whoever named this gang clearly can't understand basic Spanish, but that's our educational system for you."
That got Trevor to laugh.
"A clash on the highway has left several members of the gang dead and a truck carrying high-performance sports cars blown up with the damages into the early millions. Cartage insurance rates have risen slightly when shipping through San Andreas for the moment. But…it seems we're receiving an update that a local hotel was exposed for having an illegal casino…run by the Saints. Like the Vinewood Casino, it was found completely trashed with numerous dead."
"Naruto and his little friends are certainly busy." Trevor said with a laugh.
"How do you know it's them?" Wade asked.
"Who else has the ovaries and the balls do that?" Trevor said sagely.
~TWG~
Now in more casual clothes, the protag trio were checking out their new crib at the hotel penthouse. After Yara had purchased the only business for sale in Pillbox Hill, the On Thin Ice that was inside the hotel. It did set her back 100k, but 5k a day meant she'd make it back. Both Naruto and Isaribi put money down to use 'Crib Customization' to change it from classy to ultra modern. Now they had a full indoor pool, larger television, game consoles, and other amenities they could use. The radio was playing Radio Los Santos.
"Did you see the news?" Isaribi asked as Yara chuckled.
"The newscaster was trying not to cringe." Naruto said, looking around the crib. "So this is our first 'crib'. Well seeing that the 'cribs' in SR always have people in them being more like hangouts for the gang."
"It'll definitely raise morale. A text was sent out to the other members of Tidal Fox, so they'll probably come by soon." Isaribi mused. "In the mood for another mission?"
"Serious?" Yara asked.
"Being empowered like this makes healing quite easy with rest. It's rather slow, but I can-"
"By the way, I think I discovered something. My special ability." Yara interrupted.
"Well, what is it?" Naruto said.
"I can heal people….even if they're dead." Yara said, getting the two to balk. "I accidentally ran over someone after splitting from Jabari and the crew. A timer triggered…and I found that the body was a glowing dot on my map. So I went up and I was able to bring that person back. They didn't remember dying…they acted like they just got hit."
"I know what to call it. The Insurance Policy." Naruto said relieved. "So we dealing with the Invaders or the Buffalo Bitches?"
"The Buffalos." Isaribi said as Naruto grinned. "I figured you want to start with the broads."
They all went to change to the outfit for dealing with the 'Buffalo Girls'. Naruto came down in a black leather classic jacket under an orange t-shirt with a black spiral on the center, a pair of black roadworn jeans with an orange and gold tribal belt, a pair of black harness boots, his fingerless gloves, and an orange paisley bandana around his neck.
Isaribi came down her old Lost MC jacket under a black Love Fist racerback, a pair of indigo ribbed jeans with an orange belt, a pair of black calf boots, her fingerless gloves, a gold chain around her neck, and her old black bandana around her hand. She considered it an update to her old look in Liberty.
As for Yara, she wore a black sports bra under an oxblood biker cut, black leather pants with a red tribal themed belt, a pair of oxblood calf boots, burnt orange fingerless gloves, an orange paisley bandana around right bicep, and a pair of metallic bands on her wrists.
"I guess you can say we're back to the bone." Naruto said as they went to the door only for them to open to Fu.
"You got this sweet-ass place and didn't even call to boast. Is that an indoor pool?! How did you even afford this?" Fu asked.
"Well, we actually got it for free." Yara said. "Long story short, this suite used to be the place for the owner's son. He had to flee…and the hotel is under new management."
"Who?" Naruto and Isaribi asked.
"I'm thinking MC had something to do with that, but I'll explain later." Yara said as they left Fu behind.
They went down to the bottom floor to the 'garage' to find it actually functioned like the ones in Saint's Row much to their benefit. Naruto got on his Zombie, Isaribi got her custom Hellfury, and Yara got on her Bati Custom.
"I need to get a personal bike…but maybe not a Zombie." Naruto said before they rode off.
~TWG~
Deja found herself really liking Ella with the two becoming rather fast friends as both had a love for motorcycles and MMA. For Ella, having an actual friend she could vent to was a godsend, the irony not lost that they were backstabbing the Buffalo Girls. At the moment, the two were standing outside of the clubhouse having a soda together.
"For a bunch of feminists, they really just want to act like men." Deja said as Ella sighed.
"Hypocrisy is an American virtue, ya know?" Ella said dryly. "Honestly, if the feminists of the past were to look at us now, pretty sure they'd be disgusted."
"About that Elio guy you were walking about, you know if you could just expose Myne for the cheating skank she is. It's not good for him…or for you. You clearly like and care for him. Hell, Myne is arguably making you an emotional cuckquean." Deja said, finishing her drink.
Deja finished off her drink.
"Deja."
The two turned to see Amagahara.
"What do you want, Tatsumi?" Deja asked.
Deja had found it was easier to slide in as a hangaround, but not a full member. With Ella, it was easier to justify that being a friend of a member. Amaghara stood alone with her coat blowing in the wind.
"You said you were from out of town, right?" Amaghara asked as Deja nodded. "When were you going to say you are from Liberty City?"
"I keep my personal shit close to the vest." Deja said simply.
"Well, I have a favor to ask of you." Amaghara remarked.
~TWG~
The trio had arrived at the office as Nora greeted them. She did clear her throat to get their attention.
"I wanted to say thank you. Thanks to you, I can move me and my family out of the apartment sooner." Nora said as Naruto raised an eyebrow. "Clearing out that hotel with the Saints in it…you let it end up in MC's hands. Got me and Kyanna a room there."
"You're very much welcome." Yara said as Isaribi tossed Nora 10 grand.
"Of course, we want those working with us to be rather chipper." Isaribi said before the three ended in.
Isaribi shot Naruto a look and they shared smirks. Within the meeting room, they went down to the mission marquee for the Buffalo Girls and activated the mission.
[The Buffalo Girls - First Impressions]
It seemed no one was coming into the room, but the office phone rang to which Nora came up over the speakers to say it was from Deja…and remind them the call was secured.
Naruto put the phone on speaker.
"Deja, we can hear you." Naruto said.
"I was diggin' 'round like you asked and I found out the 'boss bitch' herding the Buffalos. Tatsumi Amaghara. But she found out I was from Liberty, but not that I was TF. I had to make a cover story about how I and Isaribi crossed paths before. She thinks Isaribi is the one calling the shots." Deja said. "But it's not so bad. Tatsumi asked to sit down and have a chat with you...she wants to work something out before things get out of control."
"Where's the meet?" Isaribi asked.
"Kortz Center." Deja said.
"Because that totally doesn't sound like a trap. Set up the meet, we'll be there." Yara said before hanging up. "How do you think this looks?"
"Well for one, we forgot to tell her we already knew the bitch's name." Isaribi said with a sigh as Yara looked over. "I suppose seeing you meet MC, we'll tell you on the way down."
They quickly got down to the ground floor, on their bikes, and were riding off for Pacific Bluffs as the evening fell to nighttime.
"So MC wants this broad alive because he's got a connection to the guy planning her downfall?" Yara remarked.
"Yeah, it didn't click at first why, but then I remembered the name. Bitch's family is old money. Among the many 'royal' families that make up the people who run Zaibatsu Corporation. I can tell you, while most of the company is legit, the company politics are a nightmare." Naruto mused.
"I've heard of them, used several of their products. Namely their adrenaline pills." Isaribi mused. "But there's a bit of a reason for Zaibatsu to have a legit appearance. They have a private army established as a 'yakuza' to do their dirty work for them. Z2. The details are fuzzy, but I do know Amaghara's family was a part of ops in America."
"What about the rest of her family?" Yara asked.
"Dead or in prison. Her dad died in '99. Her piece of shit mother died at the start of 2013. MC said he was working with someone who wanted revenge on her and her family…and I think I can make a short list of who'd want payback. But let's just call up Deja." Isaribi said before calling her.
"Sorry, I should have called sooner, because…I got lost trying to find the center." Deja said sheepishly. "I'm getting there."
Isaribi chuckled before hanging up as they would all arrive at the center's parking lot which was mostly empty. They got their bikes as they walked into the center. They would find Amaghara waiting for them in a rather quiet vantage point in the center.
"You Tatsumi?" Naruto asked.
"Anata no yoriyoi, buta o shitte imasu." Amaghara snapped.
"Ok, first off. He and I are bosses of the organization." Isaribi said, grabbing Amaghara by her tie. "So we can do business or we can go to war."
She let her go.
"If it wasn't for your reputation, I'd put a hole through your head." Amaghara said, dusting herself off. "But I'm not stupid. I know your reputation quite well, and I got a proposition to divide thi-"
She was interrupted by a bullet hitting nearby and the five turned to see NOOSE storming the places. Suddenly three wanted stars flashed up and their objective was clear. They had to escape.
"What the hell are NOOSE doing here?" Deja asked getting her AP Pistols out to fire back at the cops.
"Looks to be a raid." Amaghara said firing with her custom Pistol .50.
"This is the LSPD! Put your hands up and-"
Naruto blew the helicopter with his Rocket Launcher before switching to his Special Carbine before the helicopter crashed into the ground. Isaribi took a cop as a human shield before slapping a sticky bomb on the cop before throwing them into a group of police before detonating it. Yara whipped out her pair of Micro-SMG to fire upon the police as they fought their way to the parking lot only to see an FIB Granger run over Naruto's bike.
"Motherfuckers!" Naruto asked as NOOSE agents were coming out.
Yara switched to her minigun to shred the Granger before blowing it up. Naruto had to steal a blue Pegassi Vacca as Amaghara got on the back of Isaribi's motorcycle. Deja was starting up her bike only to see a Buzzard Attack Helicopter.
"Oh hell no!" Yara said, whirling her minigun firing into the chopper's windows.
The five made their escape as Naruto called up Lester to pay to get the cops off of their behinds.
"I noticed that whoever called the cops…didn't call the police. They left the tip directly with NOOSE headquarters." Lester said. "Take that information as you will."
He hung up as the objective was to 'Escort Tatsumi to her clubhouse'.
"So she wants us to take us right to their hideout?" Naruto thought. "Oh well, who am I to complain?"
Arriving at Goma Street, they arrived at the clubhouse as they all got out of their rides and into the open garage. Metal music played from the speakers. Women were around chilling, working on their rides, or lifting weights.
"It's like Jem and the Holograms on coke." Isaribi said under her breath.
"Aren't you worried about operating in the open?" Naruto asked.
"People know to stay away." Amaghara said. "Fukada! Is the work to my Shotaro done right?"
Fukada put up a positive look, remarking that the parts to fix it were going to be late, and she slugged him for it. He fell over and most of the Buffalo Girls snickered. However, Naruto, Deja, Isaribi, and Yara quickly realized Fukada was exaggerating the pain of his hit via different cues. Isaribi had actually recognized him as their eyes locked briefly.
"Men. Truly only good for a few things." Amaghara said before another member handed her a beer. "Now I have some business for us to discuss. The Buffalo Girls are about to come into something big and I'd figured Tidal Fox wants in on the ground floor."
"What's your offer?" Isaribi asked.
"20-80." Amaghara said.
Everything went quiet.
"I'm sorry, but do you expect an actual deal with such an offer? You expect us to take it and say thank you." Naruto said, insulted as she sat.
"On your hands and fucking knees." Amaghara said haughtily before downing her beer.
"Well we've made a decision, let's shake on it." Isaribi said as Amaghara got up with a smug grin.
"Good, I see you've come to reason. This isn't Liberty City, girl…this is…"
Isaribi clenched her fists, her brass knuckles materializing over them as she striked Amaghara with a punch that sent the leader spinning into a table knocking over several beers, cutting her off. Beer stained the floor and her face as Amaghara had a busted lip and a black eye.
"You claim to know me, but you don't know shit. My name is Isaribi Motherfucking Umi, and I'm the one who went from an orphan with nothing to one of the most feared forces in Liberty City. You want to insult me by offering 20%? Fine, but I'm going to make it cost you everything but your life." Isaribi said icily before turning around. "Let's go. I'm through talking to this cunt."
"Yes ma'am." Naruto and Yara said in unison.
They left as Amaghara struggled up as Nene returned to see the mess.
"What the hell happen? Tatsu-"
"Decided to do something really dumb." Ella said, speaking up. "20%? You offered them 20%? What is wrong with you?!"
Amaghara spat out a bit of blood.
"I thought they'd cave given they're smaller than us." Amaghara said before glaring at her. "And I didn't ask for you to question my leadership. They'll be crushed either way. If you don't agree with me, you're free to walk away."
Ella took a look at her and then to Deja. Ella ripped off her Buffalo Girls patch and threw it in her face. Fukada and Ella shared a brief glance at each other before she left with Deja. Nene had a look of complete panic.
"Tatsumi, I think you might have made a huge mistake." Nene remarked. "Ella was one of our longtime members."
"And?" Tatsumi said.
"She was pulling double duty to assist the Sgt. At Arms, the former Road Captain, and me…the Secretary. Considering our former Road Captain retired yesterday, I was going to make the suggestion to promote her to fill that position. But now we got someone you pissed off that has enough information to go states." Nene said worriedly.
"She won't go states." Amaghara said confidently, wiping the blood off her face. "And if she's not stupid, she won't show her face in this city again. But where the hell is Myne?"
~TWG~
It was a quiet ride back to the office as Isaribi took some deep breaths.
"You ok?" Naruto asked.
"Much better. I apologize for pulling a Trevor. I-"
"Don't you dare. Trevor wouldn't have done the same thing…hell he would have killed the bitch." Naruto said as Yara raised an eyebrow. "Don't worry, Yara. We'll explain."
The world went gray as they realized their mission was done.
[First Impressions - Mission Complete! Cash: $500 RP: +1000]
[Homies Unlocked: Ella, Fukada]
No 'turf' was received as a secondary reward, instead they each got $10,000 in Zaibatsu stock. Yara and Naruto asked about who Fukada was as Isaribi simply sighed.
"Shikido Fukada. If he's involved, I have no doubts that's who MC was working with. I crossed paths with him before in my drifting days before LS but after I left LC. His family was a part of Zaibatsu but they got put under the thumb of the Amagharas via stealing their work and taking credit for the Fukada family's accomplishments. Fukada's the last of his family given the Amagharas were actively killing the Fukadas to make a power play and get rid of loose ends. I'll say this, the Fukadas were good people being used by a bunch of fucking snakes. As for Shikido, that man wants vengeance. I worked with him briefly at the start of the year, and let me tell you that the man is tactical. He's been slowly building his strength and connections up. He could have caught that punch and knocked the bitch out. I've seen him fight. But he didn't…" Isaribi said going on a bit of a tangent. "But fuck me, I'm just so done today."
"Wanna order pizza and chill?" Naruto asked. "And I mean actually chill…"
She chuckled.
"Sounds good." Isaribi said. "We can check out our office 'accommodations'."
"Well, I'm going to go back to the hotel. Indoor pool means I don't have to wear a swimsuit." Yara said before riding off.
"Should we call MC about this?" Naruto asked.
"No. I rather not get anymore involved than tearing the Buffalo Girls new assholes." Isaribi said. "For now."
~TWG~
Ella was shaking as she arrived at Elio's apartment, surprising Elio given he swore he gave Myne the key.
"We need to talk. You and I have a serious problem to discuss, but I need to ask if Myne was here today." Ella said, concerned.
"No. I just got a text saying she's doing overtime again, but I have a feeling that's bullshit." Elio said as Ella sighed with relief. "I'm right, aren't I?"
"More than you know." Deja said coming in with a six pack of Logger beer. "You'll need one or all six depending on how you take it."
"Ok, how many guys is she cheating on me with? Was anything Myne said about her true? And what do you have to play in this, Ella?" Elio said, taking a seat.
"Six other guys. Nothing except her name. And she used me to 'keep an eye on her' so you wouldn't cheat. Obviously, I despise Myne for doing that and making me through this…because I like spending time with you. And…"
"You've grown to have feelings for me." Elio said as Ella sighed.
Ella spilled several more details drinking one of the beers as she did so. Elio passed on having any alcohol.
"Ok, so she basically was using me and had the church girl act to prevent her from sleeping with me…because she thought I had a small dick. She saw me as an easy mark, a safe pick seeing I was an 'mild-mannered' accountant. Well, she is going to be disappointed that she was wrong about me there." Elio said with a snicker. "But I can see why. I was an accountant and…I have an idea of how to get back at her."
Ella raised an eyebrow.
"Myne often asked for tech help…I was studying to work in IT. Myne's pretty bad with computers…and guess who has the passwords to most of her shit." Elio said with an evil grin.
"Wait, you're an accountant?" Deja said with an raised eyebrow.
"Yeah, but it looks like I'm going to have to quit my workspace seeing Myne could easily get me fired from that place. I can't believe she planted someone at my fucking workplace." Elio said in disbelief.
"I might know a place could use an accountant. There's this shipping company who does questionable things to put food on the table. They could use your skills." Deja said gently. "And I think they'd paid well."
Elio laughed.
"Help me get out of this apartment, and you got yourself a deal." Elio said getting up. "If I'm going to get back at Myne, I need to move out of here quickly. But before I do that…"
Elio got out his cellphone.
"Ella, what's Myne doing right now?" Elio asked.
"It's Friday, she's with Chico…a Vago." Ella said before he asked for his number.
She told him and he called him. The fact that Chico answered while clearly in the middle of banging Myne made Elio smirk.
"This Chico?" Elio asked.
"Si, the fuck you want, ese?" Chico snapped.
"You may want to put on a speaker because it sounds like you're banging my and your soon to be ex. I just found out she's been cheating on all of us. She's been using me for a place to live away from what said people like you were…oh right, 'ethnic gang trash', yet she's fucking you, other Vagos, Ballas, Families, Kkangpae, and dozens of dudes from every other gang. She didn't even sleep with me…ought considering Myne was itching lately…I think I dodged a bullet. But you didn't. I'd go to a doctor if I were you…and flee the city. STDs are something many people would murder another for giving to them. Ciao, and go fuck yourself."
Elio hung up as Ella and Deja were trying to pick up their dropped jaws. The irony was Elio simply exaggerated what Ella told him, and Elio felt no shred of guilt over it.
"It's funny, all this time people kept mistaking you for my girlfriend…but I guess it was me who made the mistake of not saying yes." Elio said before realizing something. "Hang on."
He went into Myne's room and started to pick the lock. Considering how protective she was of it, he wanted to know what was in it. CLICK! With it opened, he went in…and came out with a black duffel bag.
"She came home with this one day…struggling to carry it. Wouldn't let me help her…I never know why."
He opened it after dropping it on the couch. The three took one look inside.
~TWG~
URRPRPP! Isaribi let out a belch as she finished her soda as she and Naruto were having a laugh watching Fame or Shame when the landline in the room rang before a beeping noise signaling the intercom came on.
"Mr. Uzumaki, Ms. Umi, there's a call from Ms. Kelgreen, and she says it's absolutely urgent." Nora mused.
"Thank you, Nora. We'll take it from here." Naruto groaned, before putting the phone on speaker. "Deja, this better be–"
"It is. Want a way to fuck over the Buffalo Girls and get some good karma?" Deja asked.
"Go on." Isaribi asked.
"I'll explain when you get over to me. Vista Del Mar Apartments, and you'll need a car that can hold multiple people. Hurry, I'm really going to need help with this." Deja said before hanging up.
Their mini-maps had been updated with a mission marker right in front of them.
"It better be worth it." Isaribi said getting up. "Naruto?"
"Why get a car when we can get a helicopter?" Naruto said with a grin as they went to the mission marker to start it.
[The Buffalo Girls - Accounting for Cheating]
~TWG~
Myne was in a panic as she was racing out of Vagos turf missing her underwear and her favorite shirt forcing her to wear her jacket closed up. She was fuming with rage after Elio wanted nothing more than to kill him…and Ella. Her cell phone buzzed as Myne skidded her red Shitzu Hakuchou Drag to a stop before answering.
"What?" Myne snapped.
"Myne." Nene said sternly as Myne groaned.
"Not in the fuckin' mood. We got a problem." Myne said.
"Yes, you do. Because before we could get Ella out of our group chat, she posted proof that you're a cheater…and a liar." Nene said as Myne balked. "It's also up on social media."
"Wait, that's not…" Myne said before going on LifeInvader and completely going pale. "That bitch!"
She hung up on Nene and called Amaghara herself.
"I need a team. I need to kill that traitorous wretch Ella and my ex-boyfriend. No doubt she stole him from me…and there's also a bag of money in his apartment with a bar of gold that belongs to the club…and I want it back. If you're asking why it was there, it was for safekeeping given the guy was a beta bitch. But now he's trying to be alpha, and I think he may dip with the money." Myne said as Amaghara asked for where. "Vista Del Mar Apartments."
~TWG~
"Is that everything?" Deja asked as Elio brought the last box down.
"Yeah, everything I need to take with me. I'll ditch the furnishings, my kitchen, and my TV. Those can be replaced. But where's your friends?" Elio asked.
"My bosses, actually. And they're on you-"
"We got a problem." Ella said getting out a TEC-9. "Seems Myne is sending a hit squad on our way."
Then they heard it…looking up to see an orange Buckingham Volatus landing down in the parking lot. The door opened to see Naruto's smirking face.
"And suddenly, I'm not worried." Ella said as Ella, Deja, and Elio got to loading the chopper.
"You owe us an explanation." Naruto said as Elio got in the chopper.
"And you'll get it when we get him away from here. A Buffalo Girls hit squad is coming here now." Deja explained as Isaribi took the wheel to the helicopter.
"Naruto, can you stay behind and help them out? I got better experience flying aircrafts." Isaribi said as Naruto got off of it.
"Go. But you're teaching me how to fly." Naruto said as Isaribi took off with the helicopter. "Ok ladies, let's get this shit started."
[Cues: Doom OST - E1M2 - The Imps Song (PC)]
The rumbling of motorcycles blended with the rocking music as Naruto cocked his Sawed-Off Shotgun before blowing the head off of one of their frontrunners. However, a few noticed the helicopter flying away and orders were given to tail it to which half a dozen went after it.
"Well shit, I guess I'll have to whip the big guns." Deja said, revealing a heavily customized platinum Assault SMG from her bike's saddlebag.
"Bling Bling BANG!" Deja said, firing upon the bikers. "Don't worry, I asked Choji to come help as well."
Ella whipped out a pair of automatic nine millimeter pistols opening fire on her former sisters to which a gun fight raged. Naruto dove for cover behind a Vapid Radius to which he opened from the trunk to get to the front to start the car. Bullets ripped at the hood as Naruto started the car. He found a weight to put on the gas pedal to barrel at the bikers before jumping out of the back switching to his Rocket Launcher to fire at it to blow it up.
"Traitor!"
Ella found her gun slapped away before having been tackled. She had to grab the knife to keep it cutting into her.
"Traitor? Rivet, you're coming after me before I exposed Myne for being a cheating whore!" Ella said headbutting her to get her off of her. "Don't you see how fucked that it?"
"What about loyalty?" Rivet said as Ella rolled off of her. "You stole-"
"The money? You mean the money Myne's been stashing under the club's noses. The money she's been stealing from all of the club's accounts bit by bit." Ella said, grabbing her gun to pistol whip Rivet.
Before Rivet's realization came to be, Deja put several rounds in her. Ella was not even mad, simply taking Rivet's weapons and the money in her weapon. Then she remembered Rivet had a trailer and took the keys to it. Then a loud dixie horn got everyone's attention as a grass green Imponte Dukes power slid into the lot running over three of the bikers.
"Honeybun's here." Deja said sweetly.
Out came Choji came with an SMG in one hand and a grenade launcher in the other, all while wearing body armor. With a roar, he shot down or blew up the last of them before going up to Deja asking if she was all right. Ella looked on with relief seeing Rivet's body explode from the Molotovs that were on the dead person.
"I am now." Deja said, hugging him. "I'll thank you much more later."
"Choji, man am I glad to see you, but there's no time to waste. We have to deal with those going after the helicopter." Naruto said before contacting Isaribi through the earpiece. "Isaribi? Can you lead the Buffalo Girls to a trap?"
"Already working on that, I'm leading them to Grove Street. You need to get there fast if you want to jump them! Also we need to have a meeting about codenames." Isaribi said.
"Roger." Naruto said before closing the call. "Ok, we need to go to Grove Street. Isaribi's leading them to a trap."
Naruto took up a silver LCC Innovation before revving it. Everyone got to their rides as they noticed one Buffalo Girl was alive trying to help for help. Deja fired a shot from a desert eagle that she got off the bodies. The four took off.
[Music Ends]
In the skies above, Isaribi was piloting as Elio was keeping track of the bikers after them.
"So thanks for saving me. You're one of the bosses for that group Deja works for, right?" Elio said before turning sheepish. "I heard you need people for your group…like an accountant."
"Accountant, you say?" Isaribi asked.
"I quit my last job because I found out my psycho ex planted someone and bribed my asshole of a supervisor in my workplace to fake a sexual assault case. So I quit and had a call with my boss's boss. Turns out Myne had been using those two idiots to embezzle cash from the bank, and even stole a gold bar. Unfortunately…all lost." Elio said with a dark snicker. "You see, the CEO actually gains more if that gold brick and cash isn't found…"
"But what do you get?" Isaribi asked.
"Well, I got a severance package, a pretty nice one. Also an assurance that the offending parties are going to be dealt with. Let's just say it's going to be hard for the Buffalo Girls to do any business with Lombank." Elio said with a laugh. "All a part of the plan."
"You a sneaky bastard…I can respect that. You want a job with Tidal Fox, it's yours." Isaribi said before looking at her mini-map. "Ok, we're coming up on Grove Street. Let's get into position."
On the streets, the bikers came to a stop in the cul-de-sac seeing the helicopter was flying in place.
"Wanda, Why the fuck did they lead us here?" One of them asked.
"Doesn't matter, we'll shoot it down with this!" Wanda said, revealing a Homing Launcher. "I'll blow it out of the sky."
"Shit! I…wait a second, I got an idea." Isaribi said, turning to Elio. "Can you keep the chopper steady?"
Elio got in the pilot seat as Isaribi opened the door, and fired her Rocket Launcher for the missile to slam into a nearby house blowing it up.
"Why the fuck would they do-"
Then it hit them as Elio flew the chopper away as out came people…and angry gangbangers. Wanda looked down at her RPG and realized they would think they did it.
"Uh, would you believe we were set up?" Wanda said weakly.
The whipping out of firearms made that question's answer be a clear no. The bullet that went through Wanda's skull was a firm statement of war.
"Naruto, this is Isaribi. I got those bitches off of our tail. Don't worry about Grove Street." Isaribi said.
"Ok, Ella mentioned that she managed to snag keys to a trailer that one of the dead bikers owns a trailer out in Lago Zancudo. We're going there."

"I see. It's a shame that had to happen, but I hope this doesn't mean I can't do business there." Fukada said before the caller responded. "No. Good, I'm glad we can see eye to eye."
Fukada hung up the phone before pretending to put on a sad expression before going to see Amaghara.
"We got a problem." He said as she snarled. "I think you might be-"
She threw her beer can at him as he sighed seeing the Buffalo Girls around her were laughing save for a few.
"I just got off the phone with Lombank. Apparently, they no longer want you as a client." Fukada said as Amaghara grabbed Fukada by the throat. "Sorry, this isn't a joke…and it gets worse. The money in the account…they're taking it."
"What?!" She screamed. "What right do they have?"
"Well the fact that Myne got exposed for stealing from the bank, planning a false sexual assault allegation, and a mess that would have been a public nightmare. Basically, they're blacklisting you and keeping your money. Basically, they said if you protest, they'll expose you and Myne…which we don't need." Fukada said plainly as Amaghara let him go.
"No matter, I have other accounts." Amaghara said.
Of course, Fukada simply hid the smirk, letting her think that. Some more rope, and she'll hang herself. The door swung open as a biker came in injured before collapsing. Others helped her up.
"Garter, what the hell happened?" Amaghara asked.
"We got a big problem. Ballas…want us dead. All because of–"
She did not finish her sentence as she died of her injuries. Fukada simply shook her head before leaving the room.

Blaine County. Naruto and Isaribi wanted a break from the county, but here they were. They all met up at the trailer. Naruto had jacked a Buffalo S for Elio, driving it there, having left the motorcycle near his first apartment.
"You and Ella are going to have to stay here for a while until the heat dies." Naruto mused carrying the last of their stuff in.
"No issue there seeing I got wheels and there's a 24/7 nearby, but hey…when you crush the Buffalo Girls, I'll be ready to join you." Elio said as Ella held his hand. "As will she…"
Naruto, Isaribi, Choji, and Ella took their leave as both Ella and Elio collapsed on the couch, exhausted from all the insanity. As for Naruto and Isaribi, the world went gray.

[Hoods Gained: Lago Zancudo]
The world returned and the duo were a bit sour over not having any businesses to buy. Regardless, they flew the chopper towards their Blaine County home and landed it nearby before lumbering to the house. WHUMP! Both threw themselves on the bed, really wanting some sleep.

(A/N: And here starts the domino effect on Amaghara's house of cards, obviously with Myne being the trigger. Yes, Ella and Elio will be stepping out of the story for a while considering the circumstances, and for me to keep the focus on the major players. By all means, Elio has essentially started the slow downfall of the Buffalo Girls. Ella has also sparked a downfall, but more of what would be a growing schism between the remaining members. So their job is done…for now. Next chapter, we're going back to Liberty City.)
