Chapter 1 - The Second Coming To Steelport

After a year of domination in the mainstream media, the Third Street Saints find themselves in a situation where no one could ever touch nor oust them on where they are placed. Once a gang struggling to make a name in Stilwater, the Saints is now a brand name more than a gang that signifies violence and many more illegal doings. This left the Boss sitting in his office inside the Saints HQ with his cigarette, smirking at his success after looking back at it.

"Ah, we made it Johnny." The Boss pays tribute to the one and only Johnny Gat who is a renowned member of the Saints, but now he is missing by the hands of Phillipe Loren.

While staring at a photo on his desk, Zimos enters the office and notifies the Boss about Pierce throwing up a party with his voice modified with a microphone that has autotuning in it. "Boss, Pierce is bringing the fuuuuun in the Headquarterssss~ You has to chin up and have a good ol' timeeeee..."

"Hard pass, Zimos. We still have a city to take over." The Boss lessens the ash of the cigar in his ashtray, dismissing Zimos' offer.

"Since when did you turn it down, Miguel? Don't tell me you're fucking with the Luchadores again." Shaundi appears beside Zimos.

"Not exactly, Shaundi. We've been too busy, that's all. When's the movie release, by the way? I hope they cover it well." The Boss's mood lightened from the presence of Shaundi.

"I don't know, why are you guys are hyped as fuck to see it?" She asked them why are they pumped up for it.

"The Japanese commercial did me dirty, so let me shine at the movie. Ain't that right, Boss?" Pierce slides inside the office.

"Fuck you, Pierce. That commercial was great." Miguel laughed, remembering the Saints Flow energy drink commercial.

"I thought you sons of bitches hate it." Pierce shrugs before Viola comes in with Oleg, Josh, and Angel.

Angel takes his Luchador mask off, asking where the party is being held. "So where's the party? 3 Count?"

"Here exactly, in the HQ." They were all shocked when Kinzie appears on the side of the office using her laptop.

"Kinzie! The fuck are you doing here all the time?" The Boss was shocked by the redheaded hacker.

Shaundi sighed, turning Kinzie's laptop off by closing it and they were all having their palms on their faces. It was all fun and games until Miguel gets annoyed. "It's getting too crowded here! Calm the fuck down."

Pierce flicks the cigarette in the Boss's mouth, telling him to join them. "Come on, let's bounce. Let us get this party started, just like we do as always."

"Alright, fine. Let's fucking go." Miguel agreed after all, and they were all clapping and cheering for his approval.

"Told you so, the Boss would use some fuuuuuun~ Now where my fineeeeeee Hos at?" Zimos looked around, calling his hoes and become their Pimp as usual.

"Zimos with his gimps again... Can't they find a better job more than flapping their tits and showing their bare asses out?" Josh doesn't like Zimos' actions, he pays for the price as Viola struck his crotch with her fists.

"We got a Vanilla here." Viola smiles before the rest of the gang walked out of the office, and the time has come for them to celebrate all night with their accomplishments as Stilwater's most influential gang.

The night has come, and the Saints Headquarters is getting livelier than ever. With Pierce and Zimos hosting it, they sure know how to throw a gathering filled with lights, music, and drinks. Kinzie's introverted behavior left her sitting with her laptop while Oleg is sitting beside her, and of course, Viola, Miguel, Angel, and Shaundi are left at the table having their drinks. Also, Josh tries to hit on Zimos' girls but they just couldn't take him seriously at all.

Kinzie smiled when she found that the DJ isn't present, so she hacked its system and puts on Yonkers by Tyler, The Creator. Not knowing that Miguel would like it, she laughed internally. The Boss stood upon hearing its intro, screaming at them. "You guys stand by, it's my jam!"

They were left confused except for Shaundi and Pierce who are smiling at the Boss, seeing that he is having a fantastic time. The gang members were familiar with the song, so they began rapping the first verse with Miguel. The Boss stood on the table, drinking a whole bottle of tequila once the song is on its interlude part. And when the second verse began playing, they were all chanting for Miguel and his performance.

"He's drunk as fuck right now..." Angel cringes at Miguel, but Josh finds it hilarious.

"Let the man enjoy his time, we all deserve this," Oleg tells them that they have come this far that they should savor each time they will have.

"Oleg's right." Kinzie agrees with the brute's point, smiling at him.

"Come on, he's putting on a hell of a show," Pierce said while rapping alongside the Boss.

"My man is giving a concert, y'aaaaall... What a time to be aliveeeeeeeee~" Zimos adds with his autotuned voice.

Miguel spins around the pole before it snapped from where it is attached, and they all noticed that the bolts were loose before he fell. They were alarmed at the bump that the Playa took before Oleg gives him a hand, helping him to get back to his feet. Kinzie stops the music that was playing on the speakers and Pierce immediately took action from the accident. "Shaundi, bring her to his room. And what are you guys looking at? This party's over, dammit."

"But the party is just getting started." Zimos breaks the tension with the autotune of his microphone.

"Not now, Zimos. Y'all need some rest, so is the Boss." Shaundi stated whilst aiding Miguel, dragging him to his room.

Pierce and the rest of the gang are fixing the mess they have done from too much partying, and after they are finished cleaning it up, they all went back to their places and call it a day. And when the DJ comes back after taking a huge dump, he sees Kinzie all alone. The female hacker glared at the jockey, telling him that he should take care of the sound system since the party is over. Shaundi was able to drop the Boss off his bed, fetching a cold compress for him to ease the pain he has suffered after collapsing on the ground badly.

"Hey... Where the fuck am I?" Miguel still thinks that the party is still taking place.

"Your room? You fell off and bumped your head, and it looked so nasty." Shaundi replied, applying the compress to his forehead.

"Right... I was about to kill it with the last verse. I could still hear the instrumental inside my head." He gets to smile after taking such a terrible landing.

"You're tripping." Shaundi knew that he is intoxicated.

"I'm drunk as fuck right now..." The Boss smiled at Shaundi.

"I know." After putting the cold compress, she sets it aside and provided him some company.

"The DJ, uh, I thought it was your ex." He gets confused about how he mistook the DJ for Shaundi's ex.

"Who? Veteran Child? Fuck no, I'm done with him. And you killed him, remember? So thank you, Boss." Shaundi displays her disgust for her ex-boyfriend.

"You always end up with guys like that, come on. I don't have a choice but save your ass from them. Psh, abusive sons of bitches..." He lays on his bed down low.

"At least my ex's apartment was something useful." She remembered the loft that they have access to.

"We made it, Shaundi... That shitty apartment of yours is now a crib. And all of that happened because of this." Miguel shows her his hands.

"Your hands? What do you mean by that?" Shaundi was confused about what he is trying to point out.

"This fucking hands... Do you remember how many people I have killed to get to this stage of my existence?" Miguel sat on the bed beside her, sobering up slowly.

"Don't ask me about Maths." Shaundi scoffs.

"You're with me when we dealt with Loren and the Syndicates... And what an adventure it is." The Boss recollects the experiences he has gone through with Shaundi.

"Don't forget when you saved my ass from Kia and those motherfuckers working for STAG." She wouldn't forget the time where her life is at stake and Miguel had to save her.

"Fuck that one. We all know that STAG is kissing our asses up until today." The Boss was laughing with Shaundi after reminding them about STAG's status.

Shaundi had herself cackling what Miguel said, catching her breath from too much laughing. "Yeah... They do. Cyrus is salty from the death of his stanky lap dog."

"See? You're laughing. And oh, bitch, you mean?" Miguel cracks up a joke that had her chuckling.

"I couldn't imagine them smooching each other. Those senile fucks..." Shaundi wiped her eyelids off as it was teary from the laughter.

"At least they wouldn't stop us now." Miguel was in peace after dealing with STAG.

"You're right. I didn't hear a word from STAG up until now." Shaundi notices that STAG became inactive after Kia's death.

"Or maybe they're operating on incognito? Whatever. At least we have their weapons and aircraft." The Boss points at the crate where the firearms from STAG are stored.

"Don't give me hope if it's going to be short-lived." She replies, but Miguel just stared at her.

"Say what?" He played dumb by acting that he didn't hear anything from her.

Shaundi sighed before repeating it. "I said, don't give me hope if it's gonna end up bad."

"Tell me you didn't mean that." Miguel moved closer to her, but she didn't respond.

Shaundi rolled her eyes before grinning, but what happens next is Miguel pursuing a kiss from her. She learned how to return the kiss, but she pulled away after seeing that this was a bad idea. "What the fuck am I doing?"

Miguel also pulled away to tell her something, but she began walking away from his bedroom. "Shaundi, wait-"

"This is so wrong and messed up!" Shaundi walked out of the room, leaving the HQ with regrets inside her.

"What the fuck did we just do? Oh, man. I fucked this up again..." Miguel didn't realize that he bussed Shaundi.

He didn't have anything to do for the might, so the Boss decides to sleep in his bed and conclude the night with a question circling his mind and that is why he and Shaundi kissed. He thinks that he is probably out of control and drunk at that time, and when the morning comes. He prepares for it by putting his gear on, browsing STAG's selection of firearms before Viola entered the room with some bad news to tell.

"Miguel, I know you just started your day but look, Shaundi's captured by the Luchadores. They want you and Angel before the sun sets." Viola tells the Boss that their tenant Shaundi has been taken by the Luchadores as a hostage.

"What the fuck? Where's Angel? Ah, dammit! Stay right here, I'll call you if I need some backup." Miguel made decisions to rescue Shaundi from the hands of the Luchadors, dialing Angel's number on his phone.

Angel was on a break after a sparring session with his fellow wrestlers, answering the Boss's phonecall. "Speak, amigo."

"Fuck, man. Get in here, we're going to take Shaundi back from the Luchadors."
