Standing out on the balcony of the Mordin Tower, Jerik held his arms behind his back as he could see a better part of the city as high up as he was. He had been here for perhaps ten years or so, he never kept count. In that time though, he had taken over control of the Midnight Callerâ€™s,  turned his gang into the most powerful in the city, and became the hub for more then half a dozen of the worldâ€™s most dangerous menâ€™s illegal trades. â€œBut why should I stick to this city.â€ He asked himself allowed before hearing a knock on the door. Turning around, Jerik walked back into his office, closing the glass doors behind him as he spoke up. â€œCome in.â€ He said simply as he sat in his soft leather chair.<br/><br/>It took a second, but finally when the door opened, four men entered the room. Two were his soliders, dressed in their usually military style outfits. Black bullet proof vests and padded military assault outfits with riot helmets that were so darkly tinted on the outside that you couldnâ€™t see the menâ€™s face. The only two men werenâ€™t his though. One was a small man dressed in a knock off light grey Armani suit. He had thin rimmed glasses that were probably more for reading then anything with short brown hair and dark blue eyes.<br/><br/>The fourth man though was a large hulk of a man, wearing a white tank top that was stretched abit. He was standing at near seven feet tall with a black leather jacket on. His face was riddled with scars as his blue jeans were ripped and torn. He was bald with bright green eyes, and had tattoos running all down his left arm. The man clearly cut an an intimidating stance, but Jerik merely smiled and spread out his hands.<br/><br/>â€œGentlemen, always a pleasure,â€ He said as he motioned for his soliders to leave. They hesitated for a moment before finally turning and walking out of the room.  Once they were gone, he motioned for the men to sit. The one in the Armani suit did, but the larger man chose to stand with his arms crossed.  â€œ,Very well, now you two wanted this meeting. So, tell me how I can help you.â€ He said with a polite tone.<br/><br/>For a moment no one spoke, before the big man raised his voice. â€œThis is a warning Jerik. Tell your troops to back off our territories or youâ€™ll be having to worry about dealing with both of us in full force.â€ He said bluntly.<br/><br/>For a moment Jerik simply looked at the man, before the other spoke up. â€œWhat Darius means Jerik,â€ He began in a fair calmer tone. â€œ,Is it may be in everyoneâ€™s best interest if you stick to your own district for a while. Your still new around here so you donâ€™t quite understand whatâ€™ll happen if you push things to far, and we really wouldnâ€™t want to see anything regrettable happen to this building.â€<br/><br/>Looking between the two men for a moment, Jerik leaned back in his chair as though he was considering their words. â€œWhy must we fight so harshly against one another?â€ He asked simply.<br/>Suddenly the large man slammed his fist down on Jerikâ€™s desk, causing a large bang. â€œStop fucking around boy!â€ Darius growled, though Jerik didnâ€™t even flinch. Suddenly though four men came bursting through the door, two quickly dropping to their knees as they aimed their M-16 military assault rifles, while the other two stood up aiming over them. One holding a rifle, the other holding a handgun.  For a moment Jerik simply looked at them, before waving his hand.<br/><br/>â€œBut sirâ€¦â€ the man with the pistol began, but was quickly cut off.<br/><br/>â€œCaptain, these men are our guests, and I would appreciate you treating them as such.â€ Though the words were spoken so calmly and easily, the Captain began to visibly shake with fear before nodding and walking out of the room with the other soldiers, shutting the door behind them.<br/><br/>â€œForgive me gentlemen, my soldiers are just abit jumpy.â€ He said with a smile as he looked at Darius, before turning his attention to the other man. â€œDavid, surely you can see the benefit to uniting our gangs in one mutual goal?â€<br/><br/>David simply shook his head as he stood up. â€œYouâ€™ve been given your answer to that Jerik, enough of this.â€ He said simply. â€œweâ€™ve said what we came here to, if you refuse to take note though then weâ€™ll be forced to call a truce until Uptown becomes vacant.â€ With that said, both men turned from Jerik and made their way from him.<br/><br/>Once they were gone, Jerik simply sat there and sighed. â€œI truly had hoped for a peaceful solution.â€
