Despite all the never-ending attempts to make the name for themselves in the eyes of the Cartel who acted like your distant cousin that you met only on family holidays once a year, Black Corp slowly started to lose the core focus of their own businesses.

From the moment Cartel reached out to Black Corp. and said that they want to work with us, the sole focus was to make sure that Cartel is pleased. Supplying Cartel middlemen and middle women with all that they needed, keeping them happy, to making sure that Black Corp. is showing themselves more to others and ignoring all the risks that it possessed and all for the sake of this one relationship that everyone strives to have, because there is no one more powerful than Cartel in the state of Los Santos and to build the relationship with them felt like the logical thing to do from the perspective of power and business opportunities.

One of the first things was to introduce Black Corp. to more faces around the city, to get the word out, although initially Black Corp. tried to do the opposite - less people know about us, less issues for the businesses.

While some meeting were already done with groups that been around the city, there were newer ones that Black Corp. had not reached out or has just met, so they were the priority. Meetings and introductions to each other was met with a gang that gave very familiar vibe for the Black Crop. leadership from the Aztecas times - Los Locos. Second group was a very young, but promising gang that strived on their fighting ability - The Regiment. And lastly a meeting was held with the new fashion icons in the criminal world and city in general - Girlies Crew.

Besides the new introductions, some dusted relationships had to be refreshed as city always talks and there were some known changes either in leadership or the whole structure of some organisations. The main organisations that Black Corp. had to touch base were The Bratva and The Rooks.

To do a proper reconnection with the The Bratva, Black Corp. invited them to their Gent’s Club to enjoy some good socialising while enjoying a good sauna, clearing the heads and opening the mind. Both groups met at Vice Lords Gentleman's Club and had a good chat with each other about the changes and plans for the future.

With The Rooks the reconnecting was bit more formal, at least at the start, as it has been weeks if not months for Black Corp. trying to set up a meeting with The Rooks leadership, but it just never was the right time, but finally, purely on a good timing, we managed to get a sit-down with one of the high-commands. This was almost like a new introduction as a lot had changed inside The Rooks and different people were in charge, so the past agreements or information was faded a lot. After some formal talk, some more informal talk happened between some of the OG’s from the city on both sides, nostalgia and laughs about good old times and how the city has changed.

During this time Black Corp. also started to mingle in the heavy drugs although presenting ourselves as an organisation that is only in the weed business. When it came to marihuana there was no questions of the capabilities of Black Corp. members, but the heavy drugs was an new venture and it came with additional risks that soon manifested themselves. By putting out word about the organisation and dealing with other people about supply of chemicals in large quantities, Black Corp. popped up on the Los Santos Gang and Narcotics divisions radar which lead to a raid of one of the Black Corp. members houses and lead to large amount of drugs being found and confiscated. The estimated loss due to the raid was about 1.7 mil. dollars.

Unfortunately Police were not the only ones after the items that Black Corp. were producing as of late. A gang named The Empire that Black Corp. had neutral relationship with, saw an opportunity to get hands of some of the heavier products that Black Corp. possessed. They arrived at the target location and in order to do things quietly they triggered couple of alarms of the vehicles parked outside the target location, so that alerts would go to the owner of the place. Unfortunately for them, the owner was far away from the location, but three Black Corp. members were close enough to be there in a minute. Running in blind, thinking they going to face some random car thief, they were met with guns in their faces leading to a life or death situation.

The first part of their plan worked perfectly as they needed to get someone who could let them inside the property and the members that arrived had the keys from the property. Unfortunately the second part of the plan did not work as planned.

Following the demands Black Corp. members unlocked the front doors of the property and everyone went it. From now on everything should have been easy peasy, but unfortunately while having door keys from the property, none of the Black Corp. members knew the codes for the safes. While trying to crack the safes and trying to figure out what to do, how to get what they came here for, several other Black Corp. members already knew what was happening as they arrived minutes after the initial three and saw what was happening. They geared up and went to deal with the situation.

Knowing the location like their five fingers, Black Corp. members swiftly eliminated the couple of guards outside which then alerted the rest of The Empire members that were inside the property and what happened afterwards could be just described as massacre. Due to it being a residential area, the shots of machineguns and rifles alerted Police, therefore as quickly as Black Corp. neutralised the enemy, they dipped.

When Police arrived they were met with a scenery that alerted them to be careful, still they had to push inside the property which lead to some Police officers getting shot as the remaining two Empire members stood their ground well, but were arrested in the end.

While Black Corp. members were handcuffed and questioned about the involvement in the whole situation, they were released in the end, due to them not having sufficient evidence to tie any of the members to the killing and the situation itself.

Couple of weeks passed and while it was already confirmed information through various sources, but there were changes in Lost MC that could mean a new beginning for the Black Corp. and Lost MC relationship. Word was going around that Lost MC’s president is back town and he is reaching out to everyone to set the record straight about their future.

Finally the messaged came and Lost MC invited Black Corp. for a meeting. With high hopes of Lost MC going back to what Lost MC was some time ago, Black Corp. in their style got into their SUV’s and drove down to Stab City.

Black Corp. never had issues with Lost MC as organisation, the issue was with couple of individuals that were high command of Lost MC, but now it was confirmed that those people left the MC and made their own gang called Los Santos Killas. Based on the fact that Lost MC was reaching out to everyone, it felt like Lost MC is doing so called damage control of what the ex members did.

Black Corp. listened to what the president of Lost MC had to say and expressed the fact that there is no bad blood between the two groups. As the meeting was happening a sudden guests arrived and without saying anything joined in the meeting, standing at the back of Lost MC members. Black Corp. leader asked the new arrivals to remove their face masks, so that everyone can be introduced and upon revealing their faces they were confirmed to be the members of LSK, the same people that had issues with Black Corp. the same people that Lost MC was doing damage control for, at least it felt like they were. 

While it was mentioned that some of the Lost MC members still see the individuals who left as friends, such move was unacceptable. The lack of action during that situation by the Lost MC president made Black Corp. question the integrity and trustworthiness of the Lost MC. The meeting was cut there and then and Black Corp. left.

After leaving the Stab City, a chatter happened between the Black Corp. members and everyone expressed a disappointment of what just happened and hoped that Lost MC will reach out again and at least explain themselves.

Sometimes organisations fail to understand that there would be way less issues if people would understand how to keep their personal difference away from the business.

BACK TO HIGH-SCHOOL

After some recent events that Black Corp. witnessed in Los Santos it felt like everyone was back in high-school and to be fair that could be used as a perfect example for the Los Santos criminal world.

We definitely have groups that would represent the Jocks of the high-school, the ones that look at everything through the eyes of physical strength and don't really appreciate intellectual ways. If you cannot shoot and stand your ground 1 vs 8, then you’re not worthy of respect.

Then you have the popular kids or more like the popular girls that most of the people adore and wishes they could be like them or at least be able to hang out with them. For these people the beauty and popularity is what fuels them.

Creative kids that are focusing mainly on different ways how to involve creativity while being criminals. The metalheads wearing jeans, boots, leather jackets and driving their bikes. Of course as every high-school there are also the ones that in some way would represent the weirdos or outcasts, people that live their own life on their own rules and understandings and it is hard to say what they like or do.

Where would Black Corp. fit into all this high-school comparison? Black Corp. most likely would be a chess club. Competitive, but not in an aggressive way. Able to think ahead and make moves that with a naked eye, for someone representing Jocks for example, would not even cross their minds.

When a Jock pushes a lab and takes it over by killing most of the people, in their heads they just had the victory, but in reality the goods, the reason why our people were even there has been safely removed from the location and delivered to safety.

And as every high-school you have the teachers and the principal of the whole establishment that is overseeing the activities and operations of this so called high-school. Same as in reality Chess Club is not what brings fame to the high-school nor problems, therefore it seems like the teachers and principal of the Los Santos criminal world pays more attention to the Jocks, popular kids and so on. Seems like they would like to see a Chess Club getting in fights with Jocks or a Debate club, but fortunately or unfortunately for their own sake the Chess Club is smarter than that and rather continue practicing their three moves ahead strategies and grow as chess players, than seek the approval or attention from the teachers and the principal of the Los Santos Criminal High-School.

HOW HIGH CAN YOU GO?

Although Black Corp. have been in the city for a while and they have always been clear about what they do, for some reason people did not either think or realise that Black Corp. could be of use for them, so no one really used the opportunity to establish strong relations with the Black Corp. for their main product at the right price.

Some decided to make Black Corp. as their enemies, some just stayed neutral, but no one aimed to become a close friend with the organisation. Could be that it was little bit on the Black Corp. side as well with the way they do things and run their business, but nonetheless that was the reality until someone actually cracked the code and suddenly the flood gates were open. Like after trying the product for the first time, some became somewhat addictive to the business that Black Corp. could provide and wanted more and more with every time.

Obviously in Los Santos Criminal world the word travels fast and very soon there were more organisations involved and while having customers is good, you have to be careful and stay realistic to what is doable and what is not. Unfortunately not everyone could be supplied to the amounts they would like, but the best efforts were made.

Having a stable customer base that were ordering almost on daily basis, out of the box thinking was needed, because one thing that Black Corp. knew was that LSPD’s gang unit never sleeps and always is trying to crack down on whatever illegal activity there is. That meant that repetitive actions will be cracked sooner or later.

With the demand being high it meant the running operations pretty much 24/7 and a lot of this time involved one of the key elements - transportation.

Black Corp. were not rookies in this field and already had established transportations routes and means, but what could be done differently and was there any unexplored ideas.

The main one and the most common means of transporting the product is the roads of the Los Santos. Pre-established, more discreet roads been chosen and scouted for any deliveries for the safety reasons, but sometimes you could not escape using the busy roads, used by civilians, other criminals and SD or LSPD.

Another way to transport and have less eyes on the Black Corp. is via the water by using boats, but unfortunately most of the times it would still end up with finishing the transportation with a van or a truck as water route is good only until a certain point.

Sometimes the greatest opportunities come from situation of being somewhere in right place and at the right time, in this case it was the right time, because one of the Black Corp. leaders saw an advertisement of a fairly new business and entertainment in the city - parachuting.

Without hesitation he picked up the phone and signed up for the experience while having alternative motives of this experience.

The sky was a new avenue in the Los Santos criminal world and not many if anyone at all was using it. One reason for that could be the big investment required into acquiring the helicopter itself, which for Black Corp. would not be a problem. Other reason might be the legal requirements needed to even get permission to operate a heli, which again could be a problem for some organisations, but yet again not for Black Corp. and that meant it was a perfect opportunity to explore.

Week later was the day of the jump and the Black Corp. leader found himself in a heli, flying over the city of Los Santos.

Luckily the organisers did not have a set landing spot, therefore the jump could be done anywhere as long as it was inside the State of Los Santos. Tactically the leader of Black Corp. chose a location that was very close to one of the delivery destinations to see - could it be done this way?

After the perfect landing the leader of Black Corp. returned to the city, gathered all the information he gained during this experience and reported it back to other Black Corp. members. Is air a viable way of delivering is yet to be confirmed.

[Intro]
You have to put in the work
No one else is going to do it for you

[Verse 1]
Rev the engine, I ain't braggin'
Life I live, never cappin'
Runnin' around with a hunnid racks in the a new wagon
Whole gang movin' like a union
It's a suit and tie reunion
With a Spanish mamacita and she fluent
Said she love the movement, ooh
All my dawgs dripped out, trip out
Mansion with the lift now
Dippin' in the lift, wow
Pistol on my hip now
We all together, nothin' can defeat us
World we've created, nothing comes between us

[Chorus]
Black mask, Black Corp, Black cars, Black Card
Black diamonds, black sky, black stars
Black board, black market, black bars
Black leather seats, black tires, black tars

[Verse 2]
My black tux on, I'm Sean Conn'
Thousand dollar tags on, but it's not Ron
Rollin' through the city, pockets full of green,  
Feelin' like a kingpin, livin' out the dream.
Diamonds in my chains like it's Chandelier
Lookin' at my balance, there's a lot there
And they still askin' who you with? yeah
And you know it's not a rental, got the fastest wheels
On the way to the villa with the fastest meals
Got a driver in the front and he know the drill
In the fastest car, with the fastest dash
Gettin' hella racks, so we countin' cash

[Chorus]
Black mask, Black Corp, Black cars, Black Card
Black diamonds, black sky, black stars
Black board, black market, black bars
Black leather seats, black tires, black tars

[Verse 3]
Black watches, black boxes, black thots, options
Bringing profits, zero losses, flip it, toss it
Different cloth, don't care the cost, I buy it
They ask what I'm wearin', I can't tell 'em
They don't sell 'em, no, can't get 'em, no, they didn't know
Out the west, straight to Mexico, private jet it, ho
Tryna make a million a minute, on a money roll
You know that it's black on everything
From the clothes to the whips to the blings

[Chorus]
Black mask, Black Corp, Black cars, Black Card
Black diamonds, black sky, black stars
Black board, black market, black bars
Black leather seats, black tires, black tars

NEXT ON THE LIST OF THE ORGANISATIONS WAS THE OTHER MAJOR PLAYER IN THE CITY - ROOKS. AS PER USUAL THEY WERE INVITED TO MEET UP AT THE MANSION TO TALK BUSINESS. ROOKS WERE ACTUALLY THE FIRST THAT BLACK CORP. HAD AN ALLIANCE WITH, BUT WITH THE LEADERSHIP CHANGES IT ALL SLOWLY WENT AWAY AND A NEW DEAL HAD TO BE MADE. DURING THE MEETING THE BUSINESS WAS DISCUSSED AND ROOKS GAVE BLACK CORP HOW THEY SEE THE DEAL TO GO. FOR SOMEONE WHO DIDN’T LISTEN CAREFULLY OR UNDERSTAND WHAT WAS THE OFFER FROM ROOKS, IT WOULD HAVE SEEMED LIKE AN OK OFFER, BUT BLACK CORP. SAW IT DIFFERENT. A MEETING BETWEEN BLACK CORP. MEMBERS WAS NEEDED TO DISCUSS WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED DURING THE MEETING AND WHAT WAS OFFERED. EVERYONE REALIZING THE TRUTH BEHIND THE OFFER AGREED THAT WE SHOULD GIVE A COUNTER OFFER, EXACTLY THE SAME OFFER THAT LOST MC GOT AND AGREED TO. AT THE END OF THE DAY BLACK CORP. WAS RUNNING THEIR OWN BUSINESS WITH THEIR OWN PRODUCT, SO MUTUALLY BENEFICIAL DEAL HAD TO BE MADE. THE COUNTER-OFFER WAS SENT AND THE DAY CONTINUED...

BLACK CORP. HEADED TO THEIR WAREHOUSE WERE THEY WORKED ON PACKAGING THEIR PRODUCT AND PREPARING IT FOR TRANSPORTATION. AFTER COUPLE OF HOURS OF WORK IT WAS TIME TO HEAD BACK TO THE MANSION AND HAVE SOME PRIVATE PARTY TIME, BUT AS SOON AS THE PHONE VIBRATED AND THE MESSAGE CAME THROUGH, IT WAS ALL BUSINESS AGAIN. 

THE WORD FROM ROOKS WAS A “NO” IN SHORT. FOR SOME REASON THEY FELT LIKE WE ARE GIVING THEM ULTIMATUM OR TRYING TO TRICK THEM, EITHER THERE WAS SOME MISUNDERSTANDING OR GOD KNOWS WHAT, BECAUSE THE COUNTER-OFFER PUT THE BALL IN THEIR CORNER AND THEY WERE THE ONES DECIDING, BUT IT SEEMED LIKE A FAIR DEAL OR FURTHER BUSINESS DISCUSSION WAS NOT IN THEIR INTEREST...AND IT SHOWED JUST COUPLE OF DAYS LATER...

AS THEY SAY - DON’T PUT ALL YOUR EGGS IN ONE BASKET - BLACK CORP. STARTED THEIR DAY WITH A TRIP OUTSIDE THE CITY OF LOS SANTOS. STACKED UP IN THREE SUV’S, BLACK CORP. DROVE TO THE BLAINE COUNTY SAVINGS BANK, BANK LOCATED IN PALETO. BUSINESS WAS DOING GOOD AND THERE WAS A STEADY FLOW OF INCOME AND THE MONEY HAD TO BE SPLIT THROUGH VARIOUS ACCOUNTS TO REMOVE THE SUSPICION OF WHERE IT COMES FROM AND ALSO IN CASE OF POLICE SNOOPING AROUND, TO DIVERT THEM FROM THE TRACKS. BY THE TIME BUSINESS IN THE BANK WAS DONE AND THE GUYS RETURNED TO THE CITY, IT WAS ALREADY EVENING. QUICK CHANGE OF VEHICLES AND THE ORGANISATIONS WAS OFF TO THE NEXT BUSINESS.

BLACK CORP. ROLLED INTO THE NEW LOS LOCOS MOTEL, THAT THEY RECENTLY MOVED INTO. MET WITH TWO OF THE MEMBERS, BLACK CORP. INVITED LOS LOCAS TO A PRIVATE POOL PARTY TO HAVE SOME FUN AND TALK BUSINESS. TIME AND DATE WAS SET AND BLACK CORP. LEFT.

FROM THE FIRST DAY WHEN BLACK CORP. FOUND OUT ABOUT LOS LOCOS AND SAW THEM, THERE WAS A SOFT SPOT IN THE HEARTS OF BOTH BLACK CORP. LEADERS AS THE NEW ORGANISATION REMINDED THEM SO MUCH OF THEIR YOUNGER DAYS WHEN THEY WERE RUNNING NOVO LOS AZTECAS ALSO KNOWN AS NLA. BUT THEY BOTH SOON REALISED THAT LOS LOCOS IS NOT THE SAME, IT’S NOT THEIR CHILD TO RAISE.

THE DAY OF THE POOL PARTY CAME AND SOME CHANGE WAS NEEDED. TOO MANY TIMES EVERYTHING WAS HAPPENING IN ONE OF THE BLACK CORP’S MANSIONS, WHEN THEY HAD ANOTHER ONE, RIGHT DOWN THE STREET, SO THIS TIME IT WAS DECIDED TO HAVE THE PARTY AT THE OTHER MANSION. THE ADDRESS WAS SENT AND SOON ENOUGH THE LOS LOCOS ARRIVED AND THE PARTY STARTED.

MIDWAY EVERYONE HAVING FUN, IT WAS TIME TO GET A LITTLE BIT MORE SERIOUS. THE HIGH COMMAND OF BLACK CORP AND LOS LOCOS WALKED AWAY TO DISCUSS SOME BUSINESS IN PRIVATE. THE MEETING AND THE TALKS BECAME VERY HOT AND TENSE, VERY QUICKLY, SOMETHING THAT YOU WOULD EXPECT FROM TWO STRONG LATINO MEN WHO ARE INVESTED IN WHAT THEY DO WITH ALL THEIR HEART. IT WAS  A PASSIONATE DISCUSSION THAT WENT TO A POINT WHERE A LITTLE DEFUSING OF THE TICKING BOMB WAS NEEDED.

AS LONG AS RESPECT IS SHOWN, EVERYTHING CAN BE NEGOTIATED AND AT THE END BOTH SIDES AGREED ON MUTUALLY AGREEABLE BUSINESS.
