The Rise of a Gang Leader

Creating the Gang

Your P.O.V.

It has been a week since my parents were killed and the funeral was today. It looked like every one in Harlem had come even Jake, the jerk bully from school, showed up too. After the funeral was over some of the people left I was standing by my parent's graves and noticed few people walking up to me. And I didn't know who they were but they looked about the same age as me.

???: Hey man, sorry for your loss.

Y/n: Thanks.

Jack: I'm Jack, and this here is Micheal and Thomas.

Y/n: I'm Y/n, it's, uh, nice to meet you.

Micheal: Hey Y/n I want you to know that you're not alone.

Y/n: What do you mean?

Thomas: We all lost our parents and their buried here too.

Y/n: How'd they die? If you don't mind me asking that is.

Thomas: My parents were killed by a car bomb because they didn't pay protection money to those Reapers.

Jack: My mom was a cop who wouldn't take bribes from Los Cardenales and she was about to turn them in when they killed her in front of the station.

Micheal: And my dad fell into gambling debt to the Vice Lords. So when he couldn't pay back the money he lost they killed him.

Y/n: So it looks like we all lost the people we love to those gangs. I for one have had enough of them stepping over people like us. I say we need to fight back against these gangs.

Jack: Well what can we do? We're just four guys, how could we possibly stop those gangs.

Y/n: We form our own gang.

Micheal: What?! Are you ten tons of crazy or something?!

Thomas: Besides, even if we do agree, how are we certain people will join?

Y/n: We show them that these gangs aren't invincible, that their people just like all of us.

Jack: Well we'd have to find a place to get any recruits, but where?

Micheal: What about the old hotel?

Thomas: You mean the Marian hotel?

Y/n: Didn't that hotel get closed down twenty years ago?

Michael: Yeah! I heard that the owner killed a few people there before he was arrested. And the place has been abandoned ever since.

Y/n: Well let's check it out.

With that we made our way to the Marian hotel in Petersburg and after we forced open the doors we got inside saw how damage it was. From the looks of it the walls were falling apart, the floor had holes, the stats were caving in, and the rooms were a mess.

Y/n: If you think about it, this place has some potential.

Jack: Really?

Y/n: Yeah, we could rebuild it and, over time, turn it into a true Gang HQ.

Micheal: So we have a hideout, now what do we do?

Y/n: We bring in some recruits.

Thomas: How?

Y/n: Like I said before, we need to show people that these gangs can be beaten. We show them that there's no reason to be afraid and that united we could win.

Jake: I'm in!

Thomas: Me too!

Micheal: Same here!
