" What about other gangs in the area?"
" First, the other half of the 89th street gang they are currently on neutral ground, but after the eldest son of Enrique got roped into their gang, we don't know how long both parties would stand still.
Next is the Mexican Mafia, also known as La eMe, a highly organized criminal organization. They are a prison gang, but their influence couldn't be denied. They are also not hostile, but they are known to pursue and recruit rival Hispanic gang members to increase their power.
Both of them are on neutral ground with Enrique's gang, but no allies are in their circle of influence. Mainly because of their zero-tolerance policy to exploit the public." (f)reewebnovel
pǎпdǎ Й?νê1,сòМ " There are no allies among thieves. I learned that the hard way." Drac said with disdain. Whatever happened in the past was a bad experience for him to be this annoyed.
" What's your problem anyways? You never talk about your past." Ze asked while others looked at him with horror. It seemed like he was the only one that was unaware of it.
" It all began twenty years-" It looked like Drac was not shy to share it, but someone interrupted him.
" Why don't we hear about it later? Moving on, the rival gangs in the area are too big to count, but I will name some of the well-known ones." Jane completely ignored Drac without a second thought.
" It looks like it is not such a traumatic experience as I expected. Instead, it feels like Drac has bored them countless times with his story. I would like to hear about it in the future." Samuel thought as he again focused on Jane.
" The biggest on the list is Nuestra Familia. It is a criminal organization of Mexican American prison gangs with origins in Northern California.
Next are Nortenos, the various affiliated gangs that pay tribute to Nuestra Familia. They are considered foot soldiers for the Nuestra Familia.
Also, The D.C. Blacks is an African-American prison gang in the United States whose members are from Washington, D.C. They are allied with the Black Guerrilla Family and other black prison gangs.
We have to assume them as hostile if we ever came across them, but it is improbable we would run into them in their territory, but they are the groups to look out for." She continued-
" The people to look out for are
Firstly, Enrique "Henry" Reyes: fifty-nine years old, was a standard gang member but grew up to become an influential representative during his first decade. Father of four children, but the actual number of offspring is unknown.
Raul "Dopey" Reyes: Twenty-eight years old. The oldest son of Enrique, current affiliation 89th street gang, confirmed officer rank, but his standing is shaky due to his recent initiation. He has a strained relationship with his family but is known to adore his little sister, Liliana. He is most likely to attend the meeting, and could cause some trouble.
Daniel "Ramon" Leyvas: Right-hand man and sworn brother of Enrique, has an excellent reputation in the group due to his calm and calculative nature. He could be considered the brains behind the scene. We are still determining it.
Mateo "Ponchi" Montez: Left-hand man, also sworn brother of Enrique. He is a hot-blooded individual with a short temper, extremely prone to violence but not ruthless. He is known for treating his friends right and his enemies worse than worms.
Excluding them, there is also Enrique's mother, one son, and one more daughter. If we count the extended family, there are about fifty of them, which is a lot to go through."
" You did an excellent job, as always. I am assuming everyone will come to welcome us?" Samuel asked.
" That I am not sure about, but from what I have heard, they would indeed threaten you one way or another. You might not know, but Liliana is quite famous in that area as people would flock to her beauty.
She had many admirers and 'fans'; they will try to find some trouble during the meeting."
" I guess I should prepare as well. How many people do we have here?"
" We can gather about a hundred elites by the time of the meeting. Everyone armed to the teeth, but it might cause some trouble with the local police; it is better to inform some higher up if we do take them with us."
" Or else they might think we are taking over the city or something. Haha." Steve said with an excited voice.
" It really is a hassle. By the way, did I tell you about my time in Ecuador? You see-" Drac was about to go to a different tangent, but Jane skillfully stopped him.
" Yeah, yeah, we know. You have told us that story a million times. We should discuss the routes and an escape plan for an emergency." She had better things to do than listen to his boring old story.
She brought forward a map and marked the area of the meeting.
" Here we have a very congested road. We would need a large convoy to accommodate everyone; also, they had to move silently to avoid causing any public disorder. I suggest taking this route, this is safer, and we would have some wiggle room." She pointed at the area and her suggested route.
" I don't know. We could easily get a sandwich between two gangs in that area. I know both 89th street gangs are on neutral terms, but our presence could alert the other party. They might misunderstand our intentions." Chin said. The map clearly marked the lane as the dividing road between two gangs.
" I know what you think, but it is the best route. I am sure the other party had already informed them about us; a bit of surprise would be good to keep them on their toes.
The main reason I suggest that route is because we have an obvious escape route and a clear lane for any reinforcement to arrive."
They discussed back and forth, addressing any weak points in their plan. After a few minutes of rigorous discussion, Samuel came to a conclusion.
" We should go with Jane's plan." Samuel made up his mind.
" What about Miss Liliana?" Jane asked. It was the only variable in her plan.
" I haven't told her about it. I will inform her after the meeting."
" Will that be alright? I don't think she would be happy to know you met up with her family secretly." Jane could guess how Liliana would react.
" I will work harder than to get good news for her. Let's wrap this up. I will see you tomorrow."
