Coming to the city, Jay knew absolutely nobody, struggling on his own doing the basics to survive. This included petty thefts of .50's and selling them for extortionate rates back on the black market, everyday hustling tryna catch a come up. One day he drove into LSC and met Jaden Spencer, a random guy who asked for a ride to Paleto. Jay agreed, but with the intent to rob him. Over the span of the journey Jay realised Jaden was a good guy, he knew more about the city than Jay and was a useful person to know. So for a while they hung out together catching small licks come ups every now and then. Jay and Jaden met an Irish and a Norwegian lad, who ran an organisation called "The Brotherhood". For the next few years, Jay and Jaden worked flat out with and for the organisation, laundering money through business' such as rental companies and escrow organisations, in reality all of the money was coming from drug sales and robberies.
Russo's first few weeks taught him a hard lesson about the city. First you don't fuck with gangs bigger than you, they will tear you to pieces. Second, don't fuck with the biggest gang of them all, Los Santos Police Department.
Jaden introduced Jay to the his plug, [REDACTED]. He said he was a part of a bigger organisation. We spent ages wondering what it was, but we kept pulling off jobs for him, they started small, such as selling guns here and there. Then we started bringing large business orders in, cooking tables imported from Mexico to heavy weapons. Business was good. We were told one thing, and that was to kill council at all costs. So we did, a small crew was formed and we hit "Council" with our full force. It started off easy, but their numbers grew, to the point where it was the whole city trying to fight us. [REDACTED] left us, joining the group that is known by as the Irish. With most of our good men gone with him, Jay, Jake and Mike were left to rebuild. We took the crew from the shithole it was left in, to something great in a matter of a few weeks. Pulling off bank heists with as little as six people, quickly regaining our turfs in Del Perro. Yousef and Vlad were cooking making our local dealers happy.
As time went on, the Triads and Irish, formed a strong alliance, one that did not go unnoticed by Mike's good friend Oti and the leader of the Azteca's [REDACTED]. Mike kept us in touch with our new allies, however our own leadership was not at peace with our desire to declare bloodshed against our two biggest enemies.
Jay created the NIC, a group that would be used as a proxy for the Rooks and Moreblood to fight Triads and Irish. NIC, would not of been made possible without Rafi, Jake, Sam and Mike, and everyone else in it, they became brother for life. NIC standing for N*gg*s in Charge, it sure fulfilled that name. Over the coming few weeks, the rival gangs were dismantled into small crews, some fled the city never to return.
The NIC, became close with Gangster Disciples and LFM. Fighting along side them everyday for weeks. Until [REDACTED] called an end to it. As the leader of The Rooks, we had to obey his orders, which were to "stop fighting Triads or leave us". So Mike hopped on the phone to Oti, secured a meeting and discussed about us joining.
Oti took, myself, Mike, Jake and Anthony into his crew. It took some adjusting as we had previously known them as the enemy. However, they quickly showed that their loyalty to one another was unmatched, a family bond that was the clear reason to their success in both Los Santos and Chicago. We felt more at home here. Our day to day business kept on going, make money in the day and have fun in our free time. We had cookouts and smoked blunts by the beach, but we always had an eye out for any of the Irish or Chinese lurking...
Occasionally they would pop into the area, getting involved in our business and putting their noses where it didn't belong, but we handled it.
Oti and Carlos, called a meeting. Getting the two gangs together, we discussed the plague that roamed Los Santos, The Irish. The Mexicans decided to hit the Irish, and anyone who was seen helping them. This left a big decision for our enemy and former Mexican ally, The Triads. The Triads decided their relationship with The Irish was extremely valuable to them. They were caught helping them, causing Azteca's to hit them too.
The rest is yet to unfold. Gangster Disciples has become a permanent home for Jay, and the feeling of Brotherhood that he first got in the city, was finally restored. The future looks promising.
