The many toys under the control of Tiffany spread out around the place where Butch was heading.
They kept a close watch over several vantage points like security cameras being put into place to observe any possible entry points or blind spots.
Tiffany moved her consciousness from one to the next as she tried her best to look between each of the eyes of the dolls she had placed.
Everything was set up ahead of time so that everything would be ready before everything took place.
When it came to history related to gangs, there was a long history of gangs being formed in less fortunate places that would be primarily formed to combat the environment they were born into and make it a better place for those living in it.
The methods used were usually to protect the locals in the area but some sought out other means of illegal business so that they could go beyond being a smalltime gang that only covered a very small area.
If they wanted to be able to be of help to others and be able to contend with others who preyed on them and others then they needed to be able to expand.
There were many times when they would have to conflict with opposing gangs that invaded their territory so they would have to defend what was theirs or deal with it by making truces or deals with others.
Every day innocent people would be caught up in the middle of such clashes and local businesses would have to pay protection fees so that they would have protection from the gangs while being safe from being targeted by the gangs.
The bigger a gang became, the more likely it was for the original form of the gang to become corrupted and change from what it had been created to be.
They would make deals with other gangs and merge with some accepting people who had very differing views and goals.
A gang could change its form many times depending on who held the power and could make the rest of the gang follow them.
The gang that Butch was a part of had been gaining a lot of power over the years so they had changed quite a lot in terms of their original state and direction.
That came with many challenges and dangers to achieve it.
It came with many other problems from rival gangs who sought to exploit any given opportunity to step into the business of the gang or to bring it down for good.
For a gang that was gaining such a strong rise in power and reputation, it made them have many enemies that wished to bring them down and take over what they had.
The most recent action was that there had been an attack within the protected area of the gang.
It had supposedly been done by some minor subordinates of a gang that previously established a truce with Bruce's gang.
Bruce had a high position in his gang but he was still not the absolute leader within it so he had to go out to settle the matter.
Two high-up people from two rival gangs would have to meet up to settle the dispute.
Usually, it would be settled by there being an example being set using violence on those who broke the truce.
Other times, one side needed to provide further compensation so that the grudges gained from such events taking place would be put aside.
Butch arrived with a set amount of people who would be who would back him up if anything went wrong.
It was all about appearances and neither side could look weak when they met up.
It was the same for the others who were going to meet up with them.
Tiffany could see them entering from one side while Butch's people came into a factory from the other end.
Nobody else was inside and it would be a private matter between both sides unless they were disturbed by others.
Both sides remained on both ends of the closed factory as they entered.
Tension was in the air as they both postured and kept looking toward those who they were to be spending time with.
Many were curious about the other and if the rumors related to them were as true as they heard about.
Some wanted to prove themselves to make a name for themselves but they needed to go along with the bosses above them who were in charge.
Some of the young hot-blooded people among them were eager for an opportunity to take action while some were more cautious and experienced and kept a calm vigilance toward their surroundings assessing the forces of those on the opposite side.
A table was placed in between both sides in the middle with a seat on both sides.
Butch and the leader of the opposing gang slowly stepped out from the protection of their people to meet up in the middle as everyone else remained behind awaiting any orders to be given.
