The big problem with reforming a crime family is that no one believes they are dangerous once again. Like once you've reached the level of being a joke in your town or sphere of influence people aren't exactly afraid when you come calling. Well not initially anyway. To rehabilitate the Pavarossi's image we had to go mean, violent and brutal. Sure killing three people in my organization helped a little bit, but that just kept my own idiots in line. I needed the other groups in town to fear the group and not just me leading it (I knew I would not last if I stayed in the family, so I had to make a lasting impression and leave as soon as possible, it was the smartest move). So that ruled out just burning some shit to the ground and calling it good (see I was sort of nice) it did mean I had to unfortunately destroy some peoples property and call in some hits on people to remind them the Pavarossi's were not to be messed with.
Thankfully Reggie's memory gave me the right people. Well "right" in this case meant involved, see I couldn't kill the people directly involved because that's not the proper method for dealing with people who have wronged you. No you have to kill their underlings thereby telling them that you know that they did something, and then they try and kill your underlings in response and only after you rebuff that then can you finally sit down and discuss normal everyday things with them. There is a system you see! A method to my madness!
Unfortunately when I had some people killed the people who arrived at my door were the crooked cops who had sold my ass out in the first place thus dragging me into this whole sad conflict! Its like the circle of suck finally completed. I do have to laugh the detective who initially suspected me was at least surprised to see me open the door at Leland's house.
"Can I help you gentleman?" I knew the cops were coming, they were dirty and it didn't cost much to get information on them. My boys were back down the hallway with weapons just in case things got dangerous.
"The fisherman? What are you doing here?"
"Moved on to catching out of private ponds."
"Right, is Leland home?"
"Leland is away on family business I'm watching over the place in his absence."
"Kid you think your tough I get that, and you may have killed Corine, but this is big boy stuff step aside I need to talk with Leland."
"Detective unless you got something legal in your hand, you aren't coming in to this house and hassling my family, and since I know you don't, screw." He had a whole squad of cops with him, I appeared to be by myself, but he left, because he knew that I knew he didn't have anything and was just coming to mess with us (it's crazy how fast I took on all this mob stuff, I mean I'd have been afraid if I didn't do all the good things I never write about that totally makes me not sound like an awful criminal...)
So with the police dealt with and the Pavarossi's back to being feared I was able to walk way and hahahaha yeah that's not at all what happened. You know nothing ever goes as planned in my life! Ever! Like not even a simple dinner plan!
