The days went on as usual but during the nights the streets have slowly become restless as Erwin's products flooded the streets of Eden. The dealers with their pusher were in a rough competition with each other for customers. Time slowly passed but the completion didn't get any slower or colder, it fact it sped up and only grew hotter.
Then one night it started as any other, one pusher that owned a corner of the street who was working with his dealer who had Erwin's products is ambushed by a rival. It started slow and unnoticed then a pattern started to show, these people who were getting ambushed has Erwin's products. The first to notice the happenings were the street level members of certain gangs who were making money from that product.
The trend continued for some time, the dealers and pushers who worked the corners who were paying for protection started to notice also and asked the gangs that were protecting them for extra security but the jacking of goods just didn't increase. The situation slowly became more volatile, then one night The city exploded in mass.
A cargo belonging to one top gang bosses was being transported by truck towards a certain destination, four large vehicle appeared ramming the truck and firing up on it.

** BREAKING NEWS!**
**FIRE FIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CITY**
** DRUGS AND FIRE!**
By the end of the firefight twelve people ended up as cold corpses, that night terrified the city but it did not end there it just started. In turn the gang that was robbed started looking for the perpetrators of the robbery , upon identifying the group who did it they went to war.
The streets became dangerous both sides went on a spree of shooting, each retaliating on each other. That was just the begging as robberies and jacking of goods continued throughout, it became a cycle of robberies and retaliation.
The four top gang bosses Rafa , Dante , Rosa and Diane met in secret in a two story safe house as the heat on the streets became really hot. They might be the top gang bosses of the streets but the street of Eden were littered with many hungry wolves looking for opportunities. They had a sit down on how to handle this situation that seems to slowly spiral out of control, yes they controlled large territories and many paid them but something was not right. There was a pattern of how the goods that they were distributing was being discovered every time.
Rafa slammed his hand on the table with frustration, he was one of the gang leaders that Erwin was supplying. He was frustrated that instead of making money he was losing money and people at the moment, he has already lost thirty two people in the mayhem of the city.
Rosa a small and petite woman that has red spear and gray lizard tattoo had the same but slightly different problem, her people were also getting jacked but she didn't know who was doing it.
These four people didn't want to be embroiled in a war that could consume money and people, their cash flow would eventually tighten if the goods are not distributed throughout her distribution lines.
Dante a tall burly man with a black three headed dog tattoo stood up with an ashen face, he was the strongest of the four in terms of seniority and status. He has been in this game for some time, when he heard the grievances he started putting things together but before he could a gunfire broke the silence.
They dropped to the ground, taking out their weapons and looking at the door that leads to the stairs. The gunfire continued for some time, the four can hear yelling and screaming on the first floor. The four moved, one grabbing the table and flipping it the rest moved into a spot where they can view the door.
*BOOM**
The safe house was rocked by an explosion, making the four stumbled but not lose focus. After the explosion , there was a quiet moment then they heard sporadic gun fire then silence. They knew that someone was coming after them when they heard the last gunfire and the slow creaking footsteps that leads to the second floor was heard.
The four waited for awhile, waiting for whoever is coming. They all pointed their weapons at the door but without warning automatic fire blasted holes through the door , the four in sync fired back all the while they were in cover and that firefight lasted throughout the night. When the authorities got there they saw many mangled flesh and guts everywhere in the first floor. They surveyed the surrounding looking for survivors but to no avail. These checked and some of the bodies had a hole blasting their brain matter all over the place.
The second floor was worse when they entered they saw many dead bodies, a gruesome fight happened there, there was blood marks all over the wall, half the wall was caved in and bullet holes everywhere and by the days end they counted fifty bodies.
Shock waves resonated throughout the city as a power vacuum was created, the four top gang bosses of the city died a horrible death and were all over the news. Their gangs once united now started to bicker. Their seconds tried to take control so that the party would not fracture but as soon as they did many voiced their protest.
As the heat on the street intensified , the top four gangs who lost their leaders became more agitated at the loss of profit and prestige. It would take sometime for them to be fully consolidated again. While the infighting was happening, some people met up in a abandoned house.
There were four people who wore mask, they sat down and operated the a long distance coded transmission.
** SUCCESS**
*OPERATION HAYWIRE**
**PART 2**
After sending their message the four separated and headed out towards their respective destination.
The gang violence throughout the city without the four top gangs intensified as nobody kept the streets in check. Violence intensified to a degree where shoot out and jacking were happening daily and eventually the authorities has to get involved. They asked the capital of Karl, the city of Garden for operational authority in which it was granted.
Throughout this happening, Erwin is at his house watching the news. He periodically checked on his friend Bryant , Sasha and Emilia. The situation was getting out of hand, Rafael and Tin Flores called him during all this happening and told him to keep a low profile at the moment something was stirring but they also didn't know what was happening.
Erwin increased security in his new house by summoning more clones that specialize in security, the new clones is lead by Rudolf who has now adapted to this world. Also his operations did not stop, they just rerouted to the warehouses outside of Eden. Since Erwin got some open slots now that the four top gang bosses were gone he in turn reinvested those slots to Dorn. Erwin wanted to reinvest in towards whoever would take the gang over but the gangs were fractured at the moment.
Business continued as usual for Erwin, Tin Flores and Rafael kept a close eye on their people while all this was happening the the damn broke. The authorities from the government made a move, they set up road blocks, check points and patrolled intensified but luckily Tin Flores and Rafael had some contacts with the government.
Their shipments were passing through and not just them the other shipments from other from the underground. While all this mess was happening a meeting was taking place in the central government committee (CGC). The (CGC) is the smallest body of the government but they hold the most power. They controlled most of the government and they received the most dirty money from the country. The (CGC) has six seats, the president, the vice president, the economic minister, the trade minister and the great general.
They were all seated in a round table and in the center of the round table there was smart speaker.
"How was the operation?"
"It went well and we are going for part two" The general said
"Good , I want to reshuffle Eden" The man on the phone said
" You said 2 billion rubes?"
" Yes"
After getting the confirmation the group ended the meet and left.
On the other side of the speaker a man was sitting down , in the long table the elites of the country were seated, they were the top bosses of the syndicates, the top conglomerates, the dons of families.
When the phone call needed the talk resumed at the table, they were discussing the new distribution of power within the city of Eden.The top four gangs that controlled the new substance in the city of Eden were now gone. They all agreed on phase two of the operation to begin immediately.
Erwin looking at the news and feeling the drop in sales talked to Tin Flores and Rafael, The three agreed top stop production and lay low at the moment as they all felt something was very wrong about the situation.
As the days went by the authorities now included soldiers and not just local agency anymore, they seemed to be looking for someone or something. There was a citywide search, the whole city can feel it. Rumors flew as of at first they hunted down dealers and pushers , then smugglers then the middle men.
Erwin felt something was wrong and called Bryant, but there was no answer on the line. He felt something was wrong so he decided to sneak out head toward Bryant's house but when he got there he saw smoke in the distance. They got off the vehicle and stealthily made it to Bryant's house perimeter and what he saw shocked him. The house is swarming with government agents, he looked around looking if he can spot Bryant. he felt dread and what came to be was three bodies were getting taken out the house. Erwin guards
Fleeing the scene , he knew something was wrong. He immediately called Tin Flores and Rafael, they said their contacts have gone silent. The three feeling the worst has yet come to past immediately agreed to head out of the country separately. Erwin tried to get back to his house when he heard gunfire in the distance.
The gunfire was intense and never ending , the neighbors were coming out when the authorities got there and started setting up road blocks. Erwin decided to leave before then, calling his trusted clone, Darby answered the call. The call was short and brief, head out the city and meet him. Erwin immediately hung the phone up and headed towards where he can exit the city.
It took Erwin hours to get out of the city, the city was like a maze. With roadblocks and patrols everywhere, The city looked like it was in martial law as many people were getting arrested. That night when Erwin eventually escaped the city he called Darby. Darby answered and directed Erwin to a safe location where all of them can meet.
