I've always been a believer of the saying the end justifies the means, that was the very reason I created an organization that people liked to call a Crime Syndicate. But to be perfectly honest, I hated it every time people refer to our group as such, after all it was an organization born from our blood and sweat. That was why instead of accepting being referred as a Crime Syndicate, at some point we started calling ourselves a Familia.

Born from a poor family and orphaned at tender age, I was forced to grow up in an environment where the strong rules and the weak dies, in essence it was the very definition of "Survival of the fittest." For a child at the age of 10, it was a brutal environment to live in, but even though humanity has reached the modern era, the brutal and ugly side of humanity still persevered and was only pushed in the dark corners of society.

To survive that cruel setting, I did and endured things that any ordinary child shouldn't experience. Trying to keep my sanity while living like that was difficult, nevertheless, I still managed to keep my humanity intact thus giving birth to a twisted man living only by his code. For a while, I managed to survive with just my strength alone, but there will always come a point where one would realize that there was just so much a single person can do.

Using the human's natural desire to survive, I gather a ragtag group of outcasts. Fueled by our desire, we built connections expanding our influence as much as possible, and before we knew it, our little group became a full-fledged organization and ended up at the top of the city's food chain. Of course, before we became the Biggest and Mightiest Familia, we had experienced some setbacks. One of such is the ever-growing number of people that expressed their desire to join us. To keep things under control, me and the original members decided to make an organizational hierarchy system. The original members which was later called executives became the pillar of the Familia, while I was nominated and became the Familia's Head or leader which held the highest authority within the Familia

Things went well for a couple of years, and following the success of our Familia, different organizations also calling themselves as a Familia also started appearing within the city. With so many organizations calling themselves a Familia within the city, it naturally jump-started violent incidents because of territorial disputes and conflicting interest between multiple Familia. But if there was one truth in this world, that was everything eventually comes to an end.....

The sound of gun and battle echoed all around, the previously quiet and peaceful mansion was now surrounded by panicked and angry shouts. As for me, I was sitting quite comfortably in the head seat of our meeting room surrounded by my original and trusted companions.

"Everyone's panicking. Is it okay for you guys to be here sitting comfortably while drinking tea?" I asked sarcastically.

"I don't want to hear that from you boss." One of them said jokingly.

"Right, right. Besides, we already gave those guys instructions. We even go as far as telling them that they can leave if they want to." Another explained.

"Man, you guys sure are cruel." I said with a smile.

""Like you are any better."" They retorted simultaneously.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! CAN'T SAY ANYTHING TO THAT!" I said cheerfully.

"But still, I can't believe that our Familia will meet its end due to a traitor." Said one of my executives.

"That traitor is under your department, right? Maybe it's because you have poor leadership skills." The executive seated parallel to him replied with a smug smile.
