Gang Warfare

[The Stryker]

“My name is Alex Shelley...I was the leader of a group called Generation Next, consisting of three up and coming young men like myself. Rod Strong, Jack Evanz and Aries. We ruled with a iron fist over New York’s small crime game with aspirations to move up to the big leagues, That didn’t happen.

For some reason, Aries thought that all of a sudden I was holding the group back and I needed to be taken care of, They broke my damn collarbone and left me in the cold to die. I couldn’t find work I couldn’t do anything with myself afterwards I guess being the leader of a group of degenerates doesn’t make you much friends.

So what was I supposed to do? Move out of town to some sh*tty shack in Maine? No...Instead, I took revenge and for the most part...was successful until I found out that Aries was indeed better than me. He beat me and tossed me back onto the streets....Everything I tried...didn’t work. I looked up to the gods to see if they could lighten my load, I called upon the mangers to tend my general dispair and NOTHING...WORKED.

In this world, Decisions are based on monetary issues and whats done is done for buisness...My decision was best for buisness, I made a deal with the devil and found help...I didn’t sell out people...I bought in.”

Gang Warfare: The Embassy Vs. Generation-Next


A camera slowly turns on and tracks over a warehouse, It then quickly flips around and Evanz looks into the lens. “Yo Wassup This is Alex Shelley’s paparazzi cam presenting...Generation Next ” Evanz turns the camera and aims it at Strong.

“Theres the muscle, the man, the canadian strong hold Roderick Strong ” Strong poses and flexes his muscles. “Alright thats enough, this isn’t for the ladies.” Evanz zooms in on a guy sitting on the couch.

“And heres the new kid, Matt Sydal Take a bow son ” “Is this really needed? I mean we already beat the crap out of the guy...do we have to mess with his stuff?” Evanz rolls his eyes and shifts over to Aries who is sitting in a chair by himself. “The fearless leader Austiiiiiiiiiiiiiin Arrrrriiiii-

“Stop it.” Evanz shuts off the camera and groans. “Come on man We took care of Shelley and its over ” “No It isn’t...Until we kill him, he’ll never be out of our buisness.” “Sure whatever man, I just wish you would relax for once Smoke a joint with Strong and me.” Aries glares at Evanz and walks away. “Sh*t, It was just a suggestion What could you be so worried about anyway?”

Aries looks out of a large window. “Why was he on that rooftop? Why was he video-taping that Stryker kid attacking those guys?...It’s like he was on a mission.” “Well...you know, I haven’t recorded over anything on the tape and maybe if we watched some.”

Aries snatches the camera out of Evanz’ hands and takes the tape out, He tosses the camera to the side and puts the tape in the VCR. Sydal sits back on the couch and looks at Aries weirdly. “Why’re you so scared of Shelley?” “I’m not scared of him....I’m sick and tired of him.” Aries Re-winds the tape and stops at footage of Randi and Abyss.

Strong looks at the screen and winces. “Man...whats wrong with that one?” Sydal looks up at Strong and then back at the screen. “Which one?” “The green one...what kind of freaks is Shelley hanging out with?”

Aries watches the tape more and then pauses it when the Embassy’s HQ is shown. “Thats the old Saki building...it was supposed to be closed down...what the hell has he been up to?” Evanz yawns and taps Strong on the shoulder, He gestures to the backroom and Strong follows him.

Aries watches the two leave and goes back to watching the tape. “Matt.” “Yeah?” “Get to this building and find out what you can about Shelley and his little friends.” Sydal nods quickly and grabs his jacket before rushing out the door. Aries watches the tape further and pauses at the image of “The Embassy” written in gold spraypaint.

Embassy HQ

Shelley limps out of the elevator and holds onto the wall. “Crap...” Randi strolls out into the living room with headphones on, She stops and see’s Shelley laying against the wall, She runs to him and helps him steady himself. “Hey thanks.” “What happened to you? ” “Nothing..leave it alone alright?” Shelley pushes Randi away and walks to his room.

Later that night

Abyss smashes a window with his fist and Rave unlocks the window and opens it. Randi slips in and lands on the back of a T-rex skeleton, She slowly inches down and then turns off the security system. Rave and Shelley jump on the fossil and jump down to the floor.

Randi floats Abyss to the ground and crosses her arms. “Why’re we here?” “Because Nana said we needed to spread more word and steal this jewel thingy.” Shelley walks into the next room and approaches a glass box containing a large blue jewel. The rest of the Embassy surrounds the box and looks at it.

“Ooh..pretty.” Shelley taps the glass and is about to start the glass cutting process when the glass shatters on it own. “Ok...I didn’t do that.” Randi picks up a piece of metal from the floor and looks at it weirdly. “Someone threw this at us.”

“Over here!” The Embassy looks to the side to see Strong and Aries leaning against a statue. “Why hello there Alex...these your new friends?” Shelley looks at Aries and backs up slightly. Randi walks up to Aries and looks him straight in the eye. “I guess you’re Aries...the jerk-off?” Aries laughs and looks at Strong. “You hear that?..Jerk off...funny!” Aries smacks Randi across the face and she is about to attack him when Shelley pulls her away. “No no...not like that.”

Strong flicks a toothpick at Abyss and he barks at him. “Alright Alex, tell you what...leave town and we’ll leave your friends alone.” Shelley scoffs and gestures behind his back for Rave to take the jewel. Rave takes the jewel and stuffs it in his jacket. “Now what kind of deal is that? When I could just as easily...mess both of you up?”

Shelley punches Aries in the face and drives a forearm into Strong’s face. Shelley runs into the main lobby of the museum and Rave looks at Randi. “Come on, who cares about him? Lets get out of here.” “Yeah...come on...Byss?” Abyss is already chasing after Strong and Aries.

“Ah screw both of them, they’ll be alright! Come on!” Rave and Randi leave the Museum just as Shelley is thrown onto the main help desk.
