Ramee, K, Vinny, Zaceed and Hazel met with La Jefa at the tunnels there
She took them down a ladder inside the tunnels which lead to…more tunnels
They ran for a while until they reached the end of the tunnels, which lead them to the Cartel HQ
They met up with Padrino Simone, and he asked them about how the cocaine business has been going
He told them he's thinking of bringing Red Hand MC into the Cartel
Ramee gave Padrino a tiger for Cinco de Mayo <:jajaja:1369094867325816912>
Padrino asked the boys to get intel on the Mob
Before leaving, he gave the boys a tour of the place and showed them a shipment of Ozempic for Ramee, stashes for drugs and explosives, some of the Cartel's cars, and a bunch of money printers
Ramee met up with Slick Rick and Johnson Long at the Courthouse prior to his court case to go over the details
Slick Rick said it was a 50/50 chance on whether he has the last charge dropped or not
Hazel met up with them at the Courthouse and laughed about all the tasks she had to do to get her expungement
Ramee and Hazel saw someone at the dailies board and told them “don’t do it, it’s not worth it” <:omE:1057536245636530256>
Ramee asked Hazel, Ellie, and Dick Hardigan for $600 while at the Courthouse for a hunting license
Dick gave Ramee the money and Ramee got his hunting license
Ramee asked Cain why he was doing this to him, and that he should throw the court case for him
Rick and Johnson informed Ramee that the only witness Ramee has against him is Croc
Rick informed Ramee he’s joining the State Attorneys Office after the court case and leaving Vulture Law & Co
Ramee wasn’t happy after hearing this and said to Rick “is this what we’re doing?” <:SadgePlant:940766399016603678>
Rick asked Ramee for a counter offer as a solution
Ramee offered for him to finally take his own pay checks because they have access to the account
Croc showed up to the case, and immediately shut down the motion to dismiss
He stated the probable causes he had, the warrant, the gun and the reasonable suspicion that Ramee did shoot at cops
Ramee replied with the fact that he wouldnt be able to shoot cops while applying an armor plate or a band aid
He stated that the warrant, at the time, got dropped because nobody in the city had a pilots license to fly, and that they didn’t identify him on scene taking a shot at cops
He added that at the time there was no DOJ to argue his case and that Dante Valentino is not here as a witness
They met up with La Jefa from the Cartel and she told them they will be putting bags over their heads and taking them to another location
They took them to a railroad in Sandy where they walked through a door that revealed an underground tunnel
They walked down the tunnel where they met up with Simone
He asked K which side he'll be choosing, the Mob or the Cartel
K asked him about Cayo Perico and told them that the Mob took over it
Simone assured him that Cayo Perico is still theirs and they will be taking over the city as well
He told K that if CG wants to join the Cartel they have to do them a favor
They have to kidnap someone from the Mob and bring them to the Cartel to send a message
In return, the Cartel would show them all the tunnels
Simone told them that if they decide to switch to the Cartel they would lose all their progress with Tony Rico and would have to start from the bottom again
K agreed, and the Cartel told them they have an hour to get the job done
Ramee, K, Vinny and Taco re-upped on supplies and headed to the Merryweather docks where they got picked up in heli by a member of the Mob
He dropped them off at the island where they met another member, Reeco, who helped them start a smuggling mission
They drove back to the docks on a boat with Reeco where K handed over the cocaine brick to a local
He cut the brick open and got 20 cocaine bags
He also got a smuggling case and got a mixing container from it
After snorting coke together they invited Reeco to party with them
They drove around for a bit, then they held him up and put a bag over his head
The boys took Reeco to Sandy and handed him over to the Cartel
Simone gave them the honors to torture him themselves
K facetimed Tony Rico and showed him Reeco getting tortured
K told him that he never forgave him for all the past grudges, and that this was an act of war
They will now be officially known as the Changaloa Cartel
Simone gave K a Cartel HQ table and told the boys they will be working with Hades and Vagos
Ramee texted Draco and told him that he's glad they'll be working together <:Flirt:1260467593467265085>
The boys headed to the Cubby for the second CG meeting of the day
K told them that they're Cartel now
He placed the table down and added Ramee, Paris, Taco, Vinny and others to the app
K, Taco, Suarez and Ace traveled back to Cayo Perico to search for a way to smuggle the cocaine brick
While looking around for anything that could let them smuggle the brick, they noticed vehicles coming towards them with people holding AKs and Dracos
It was the Cartel (Faction)
They took Taco hostage and Taco radio'ed the boys that the Cartel just wanted to talk
K, Suarez and Ace came back and were held up
One of the Cartel members questioned K about having the cocaine brick
They were brought to Simone, their leader, and Simone questioned K about him trying to grow on their island
K replied that they didn't try, that they did grow on their island
Simone told K that the Cartel knew that they were working with the Mob
K stated that he has been looking for the Cartel and that for now they were working with the Mob
K offered Simone the cocaine brick as gesture of good faith
Simone called Tony Rico to "come pick up his pets"
Soon after, two helicopters showed up shooting at the Cartel and the Cartel returned fire
K and the boys took the opportunity to sneak away
The Mob landed theyirhelis and started fighting the Cartel on foot
K and the boys stole one of the Mob's helis and attempted to help the Cartel by shooting at the Mob, but the heli was shot down
Suarez managed to land the heli and they ran for their lives
After a small discussion, the boys decided to go back on foot and shoot down any Mob members they encountered
K started shooting the Mob but was shot at and lost all his armor
Ace and Suarez took down one member of the Mob
K took down another, but was shot down <:kebo7:1168265326664880289>
Afterwards, Taco and Suarez were shot down, while Ace tried to save K but was held up by a Cartel member
Ace panicked and stabbed the Cartel member
K told Ace to pick him back up because they were trying to work with them
They were brought to a new location, where both Tony and Simone were waiting for them
Simone whispered to K that maybe after the meeting they could work something out, but K refused to work with them after what just happened
Tony and his people shot down all the Cartel members and Tony told Simone that if he keeps digging tunnels in Sandy, he will come after him
K and the boys were brought back to Los Santos by the Mob and got medical treatment at the hospital
Rico texted **K **that it was "Time to talk" and that he had something that belonged to K
K and the boys met Tony Rico, Rosa Garcia and Nash Mastersin at the same mansion they had met previously
Tony revealed that he wanted to take over the cocaine production business from the Cartel and that the Cartel taking K and CG hostage was the best way for Tony to start his work
Tony questioned who CG was truly shooting at during the fight, but K deflected by stating it was hard to tell who was shooting who
Rosa recovered the brick the Cartel had stolen and gave it back to K
Tony made his proposition clear: "You can either break bread with power or with weaklings"
K and the boys talked shit about the Mob under their breath as they were leaving
