The building where the Kingpin currently was, was quiet.  But too quiet as to seem like something was off. Most of the lights on the lower floors of the build were out and all of the doors were unlocked. Even more strange was something was jamming communication in the building.

Leo had gotten a call from Kal about something she wanted him to look at with his talents that was related to all the gang violence going on. He was up to do whatever he could to help end all of it. It was getting really annoying and cutting into his business as a private eye.

He had mostly recovered from when he had help deal with the gang war that had erupted though some spot were still sore.

He also remember that Abigail Hawk the of the PI had also been looking into all of this and gave her a call letting her know what was up and if she had any info or just to help she could come over too.

There is chaos in the street of New York City as a wave of increasing gang violence has swept through the city. The exact groups fighting are unknown at this time but it is believed to be related to the attacks on gangs that has been going on for over a month.

Citizens are advised to stay off the streets as much as possible especially at night and to listen to the news about areas were violence is currently occurring. The police are doing their best to control the situation and to stop the people responsible however they are currently having difficulties as many of the people leading these outbreaks of violence seem to have superhuman powers.

Please standby for more updates.

Illarion had called Dr. Kraken in the morning exactly when Rose Red had told Kraken he would call. Illarion told him about the situation he and the other gangs were having and he would be paid a large amount of money to deal with the Kingpin’s men however he saw fit just as long as they were out of the way. That amount of money with the much large sum that Rose Red was paying him to help her cause by making the gang war even worse and weaken both sides so she could take over made Dr. Kraken a very wealthy man and he was already looking into people he could have join him maybe creating a team or Syndicate to make things even easier.

Qiao was not happy and when she was not happy people got hurt but in this case she wanted to hurt the Kingpin for what he had done to her operation at the docks. Though as much as she loathed admitting it she did not have the power to truly hurt him at least not by herself. So she made some calls to the two other bosses that she know through her sources had been hurt as much as hurt by Kingpin’s insane actions of attacking the gangs that paid him not to interfere in their business.

Qiao wanted to talk to them about doing that alone there was no way they could do but together she though they just might be able to. What she wanted to do was take down the Kingpin permanently.

Rose Red met with each group individually to tell them what she expected of them for their upcoming attack. The point of these attacks was not to win them and destroy everything though they could if they wanted she didn’t care as long as civilians were kept out of it. The point was too implicit the Kingpin in these attacks and that was all that they really needed to accomplish. The other thing she instructed them to do was if the fight got bad and it looked like they were to lose they were to make a retreat as fast as they could and if they got caught she would have them killed.

Rose Red was done preparing, done planning, done waiting now was the time to take action. All the hard work she had done over the past few years had boiled down to this plan. Carolyn Fisk was finally going to have the revenge she had long sought after, she was going to take out the Kingpin her grandfather and take the thing he valued most in the world, his position and her birthright that he had denied her.

But all that would come later now was the time to initiate the first step of her plan, wear down the Kingpins power base by attacking the operations of three bosses he had under his control and frame him for it. Three power hunger bosses that she knew would use this as an opportunity to try to take out the Kingpin and claim that power for themselves not that they would be able to do that, but this would weaken both sides creating the perfect opportunity for her to strike.

Rose Red already had her first attacks against the bosses planned out. She was planning on having Lady Octopus and some goons attack Illarion Morozov’s gun running operation out of an abandoned warehouse. She though The Hood and Crosshairs would enjoy taking down Nuncio De Luca’s money laundering base run out of an office building not far from Hell’s Kitchen.  Finally Rose Red felt that the Boomerangs would do quite well taking done Pink Lotus’s Drug trafficking that she was running out of the docks in one of those freight depots and some goons with them.

The heroes were still a wildcard but she was certain her plan for them would work and she could have them play right into her hands and they would not realize the truth of the situation until it was too late.

Rose Red was in her office of her import/export business which was a decent sized operation big enough to accomplish her goals but still small enough to not take much notice. It was the perfect cover to allowing her to move her pawns with ease, hold her meetings with the various groups that she controlled and was supplying in secret, and an easy source of income with a small money laundering ring that she had set up. It was a start but with her plans that she would soon be setting in motion she knew she would soon be sitting on top of the criminal food chain.

She still had a few more test runs to do but so far so good any problem that she had had were all ready in the process of being fixed. Carolyn was so close to achieving her goals and she wasn’t going to let anything stop her now all the pieces were in place now she just had to wait for the perfect opportunity to strike and set her years of planning and plotting into motion. Her plan was brilliant, cunning and she knew that it would work. She had studied carefully all of the other players while they never even knew she existed.

The players were her Grandfather Wilson Fisk the Kingpin, while he was now old in age and nowhere near his prime of power though he still was hold his position in a death grip that so far none had been able to break though that would be changing soon. Her grandfather was also lacking the superpower minions that he once had and now only had five mercenaries that she considered a threat to her plans Then there were the lesser gangs caught under her grandfathers thumbs though she was going to focus on three in particular that she felt had the most power and would be mostly to rebel give the right prompting, the Triad under Qiao Yue, the mafia under Nunico De Luca, and the Russian mafia under Illarion Morozov. Each of them are power hunger individuals than just need the right kind of push and would soon be doing exactly what she wanted them to do without even knowing that she was pulling the strings. Then there was the wildcards in all of this the heroes while she wasn’t too worried about the big teams like the Fantastic 4, X-Men or the Avengers since they rarely ever go involved with the criminal underworlds it was the independent street types that had her a bit worried since they tended to get more involved this type of thing but she had a plan to deal with them too in a way that would work to her advantage.

Once she had all the other players fighting each other she could take advantage of their distracted and weakened states to take down the Kingpin and claim that title and power for herself. The power that was her birth right that he had denied her when her grandfather had taken everything from her, her father, her former life, it was all his fault and she was going to make him pay. But she had to be patient soon everything would be hers. But for now she had to wait, plan, and prepare.
