Chapter 1: The Welcoming
Years pass since the Saints had taken control of Stilwater, turning from a small gang in a Row to an City-wide Empire.
Once expanded, many took on T.V. shows or Commercials. One day, a few of them decided to take a break from it.
In the Elevator of the Bank, Johnny and Shaundi walked in carrying Duffle Bags. Soon a masked person and another actor follows, annoying Shaundi.
"Look this is a robbery, so don't go Hong Kong on us, okay" the Person says, "Don't worry Samantha, we got this" he says.
"Are we really taking him with us?" she says, the Actor laughs at her comment. "I just need to practice my skills" he says, causing her to roll her eyes.
"Don't worry, we'll get this over with quickly" Johnny says, soon the Elevator door opens. The group walked out, then masked person fired her Machine Gun in the air.
The actor then jumps onto the counter, "Nobody moves, nobody dies" he yells. Shaundi sighs in annoyance, "What too much?" he asked.
As they argue, Samantha activate her voice changer. "Alright put the money in the bag, and yes you can have our autographs" she says.
As they take pictures, gather money, and sign autographs; the actor began harassing the elderly woman behind the glass counter.
"Hey, don't be a dick" Shaundi says, the Actor turns to her and laughs. "What is she gonna do?" he asked, soon the woman pulls out a .45 pistol.
As she pulls out her pistol, the other accountants does the same. They then began firing at the Saints, causing them to fight their way up to the vault.
Once at the vault, the masked person grab some charges. "So what are we gonna do?" Johnny asked, "Plan B" Samantha says.
In Steelport, a militarize gang secretly planned to begin a war with the three Gangs. A mixed-skinned man named Joshua Jones leads this group, codenamed Viper Corps.
Joshua puts on his trench coat with padded armor, he then turns to his men and nods.
He soon drives his Blue/Black Kaneda as he and five others guards a security truck, which carried 'Special' goods.
As he drives, the Hologram projection of Monica Hughes appears. "Senator?" he says, Hughes switches hips as she turns to him.
"Remember, I'm only allowing your little Racing league because you guys are my important assets" she says.
"Yeah yeah, you said it like a million times, even back in L.A" he says in annoyance.
Soon the Truck pulls into minor Decker H.Q, along with the few other of his men with it.
Joshua soon comes out, parking next to a nearby Guard. Soon one of the leaders in the Syndicate walks up to Judas, "Mr. Jones, it's nice to see a Racer Gang in town" he says.
"I see, and you must be Matt Miller, the leader of the Deckers" Joshua says, "Why yes, we aren't that infamous compared to Morning Star and Luchadores" Matt says.
"I see, well here's your cargo" Joshua says, soon his Captain walks up to him. "Man, are you sure this is what Hughes has in mind?" she asked.
Joshua smiles as he and the others entered their vehicles, once Joshua and his men left, he set off a detonator.
Permanently disabling the Decker's new and current tech, Joshua laughs as his gang leaves the Decker's territory.
As the crew sat in a warehouse inside of Yearwood, Steelport, they made plans with Hughes.
"So, is the sabotage successful?" she asked, "The Decker's western hold is permanently damaged, weakening their hold on Stanfield" Joshua says.
"Good, that should give us time to do more damage, in any case, your payment of $500,000" she says. "Thank you Senator"
Once she hangs up, his captain, Jessica, walks up to him. "So how much?" she asked, "We enough money to maintain operations here" Joshua says.
"You know, I always doubted you, but you keep proving me wrong. And look at us, the Government is asking for our help" Jessica says then laughs.
"Well, we are the Law Enforcement and Defense Force, which is perfect for us" Joshua then walks toward the Command Room.
"Sir, we got something" a man named Officer says, Joshua follows Officer as a monitor shows a plane falling apart.
"Contact Quagmire, have him mount a Search a-" he stops as he sees a woman firing through the aircraft.
"Give me everything you know about her, I want to see what are we dealing with" Joshua commands.
"And the plane?" Officer says turning to Joshua, "Get some AB Destroyers to force it to land, the contact Quagmire to send a squad out" Joshua says.
He soon leaves the room, leaving an order that can change their lives.
After landing, a dark-skinned woman in a tight black outfit walks out of Friendly Fire, she then cocks her pistol.
"So, where do we go from here, Sam?" Shaundi asked, Samantha turns to her Lieutenant.
"We go to the Armory, grab some guns and a bomb" Samantha says.
Shaundi gives her boss a very confused look, "You mean the Military base?" she asked. Samantha enters the stolen car, Shaundi follows.
"Contact Pierce, let him know about the plan" she adds, "He's already on his way" Shaundi says.
"Good, now let's get started" Samantha says as she drives off, above them, a Stealth Drone tails the two women.
Minutes pass as the women are trapped, stuck in the warehouse with the Military surrounding them.
As the fight goes on, a squadron of Viper Corps unarmed MS-05 Eagles arrive. They circle the airspace as they watched, "Sir, those women are gonna get themselves killed" Quagmire says.
Joshua lands on the rooftop as he watches, seeing the action himself
Joshua thinks of a way to solve this, without pissing off Hughes. "Keep circling, I'll think of something" Joshua says, but then, something caught his attention.
Soon one of the Eagles gets damaged from gun fire, causing the group to wave off. As they do, a group of Oppressors flew in firing onto the Military Guards.
Joshua watched as his troops tries to reorganize, soon he snaps out of it. "Call off the Eagles, let them go for now" he says.
The Eagles flies away from the combat zone, Samantha sees Joshua on one of the rooftops and got curious.
