Chapter 18
Third's POV: Highway (Charming)
Sybil's crew team pulled up next to the escalator that had crashed into a tree. They were pulled up slowly as they exited the car to reach the people inside.
"I'll go; call the ambulance," Brandon told Davis, who nodded. Brandon walked to the car with his hand on his gun, not taking it out.
"Ma'am?" Brandon called out as he heard moans, like someone was coming through.
"Ma'am, can you hear me?" Brandon says he was close to the door to see who the woman was. He knew who she was, and it was the leader of SAMCRO's mother, Gemma. He called out to the boys.
"Andre! Christopher! Come here!" Brandon called out. Andre and Christopher jumped out of the car.
"You've been in a car accident, and I need you to stay calm and hold still so we can help you out." Brandon smooths her. Gemma remembered having the children with her.
"Abel! Oh, my... oh, my God!" Gemma called out. Brandon looked in the back, seeing the children who were close to the tree that was surrounding the car.
"It's Sybil's partner, Jax's mother." Brandon told them, making them look at each other.
"Was she drunk or something?" Chrisopher asked.
"I don't know, and I don't care. I wouldn't like to get yelled at by Ms. Sybil. I'm not dying because you want to ask questions." Andre told him. Davis ran over.
"The imbalance is on the way. Come on, let's get them out. There's children in there." Davis told them, making them nod.
"I got Mrs. Gemma. You get the children out and be careful." Brandon instructed.
"Okay, I'll direct the amberlance over." Davis ran back as they got busy. Brandon slowly opens the driver's door. Gemma's crying as she worries about her grandchildren.
"Mrs. Gemma, I work with Ms. Pope. We're going to help you and your grandkids." Brandon muttered, making her nod. He slowly grabbed her, pulling in his arms as he carried her, princess style. Andre and Christopher grabbed the kids out of the backseat, as they didn't want them to get hurt more. The amberlace finally came as they checked over Gemma before they took them to St. . Thomas Hospital. Brandon and his crew watched them leave.
"Call Sybil. She would like to hear about this." Brandon motioned André. Andre quickly dialled her number before saying into the phone.
"Ms. Pope, We have a problem." Andre told her.
Hangar (Charming)
Sybil had just gotten off the plane when she got the urgent call from Andre about Jax's mother and children in the hospital. She knew the only hospital that they will be taken to. She walked to her car door, which Michael opened for her. She told him where to go.
"Meet me there. I'll call Jax," Sybil told Andre, who agreed to her.
Michael drove to St. Thomas Hospital on her command as she scrolled to find his number on her phone. She raised the phone to her ear, interrupting the time he was spending with Tara. Tara watched as he answered the phone, confused.
"Sybil, hey." Jax said into the phone as Tara looked at him suspiciously before her phone rang.
"Jax, you need to come to St. Thomas. Gemma was in a hospital. Your children, along with her, found her at the side of the road and called me. I'm heading there now." Sybil spoke on the phone before hanging up.
"Step on it, Michael." Sybil tap the seat before leaning back.
St. Thomas Hospital (Charming, California)
Sybil met her crew at the entrance of St. Thomas before going inside. Her heels clacked on the tile floor as the many nurses and doctors watch her walk past. Chibs and Bobby were the first to see her since Tara and Jax went to survey Abel's surgery.
"Sybil lass, what are you doing here?" Chibs asked.
"My crew found the car. Is everyone okay?" Sybil asked as her crew looked on.
"They just took Jax's oldest for surgery, and his youngest is okay. Gemma is recovering in a room." Bobby explained it to her.
"Good. That's good. Let me introduce you to my crew." Sybil stated.
"This is the leader, Brandon." Sybil said as he shook hands with Chibs and Bobby.
"This is Davis; he's Brandon second hand." Sybil told them as he nodded to them both.
"And these guys are Christopher and André. The jokers." Sybil smiled as Andre gave them a brotherly hug and Christopher a handshake.
"It's nice to meet you, lads." Chibs says. Tig had come with the rest of SAMCRO, walking up as they made it to their side of the waiting room. Tig was surprised to see Sybil standing there.
"Angel." Tig paused.
"Tig. Boys and Juice." Sybil grinned as she looked at Juice last. Juice wondered why she looked at him like that, especially since she put Clay in the hospital.
"How are they?" Tig questioned.
"All right, Abel's heartbeat went irregular. They got to do something to reverse it." Bobby assured.
"Oh, sh*t, man. That poor kid." Juice sighed.
"Yeah." Bobby agreed.
"How's the baby?" Another man asked. Sybil didn't know this one, expecting that he was always around Samiro.
"Tommy boy—he's golden. He didn't get a scratch." Chibs tells them.
"Gemma's banged up, but she's going to be okay." Bobby reassured them, making them nod.
"How about you guys?" Phil asked the two as Jax and Tara finally came out the back with baby Thomas. Jax walked to them.
"Hey." Jax greeted them as they greeted him back, asking how he was doing.
"I'm fine. I have to talk to Gemma soon." Jax tells them. He looked at Sybil, who watched, before motioning for her to walk with him.
"I'll be back." She muttered before walking away. Her squad and his, along with Tara, watched them walk away.
"Thank you for calling me about this." Jax thanked her.
"Of course, when my crew told me, I had to." Sybil waved off.
"No, but thank you. It's like when there's a problem. You are there to take care of it." Jax stated.
"That's what makes us partners. Whatever you can't handle, I got your back." Sybil leaned against the wall.
"How's your work?" Jax asked just to make small talk, keeping his mind away from Abel.
"It was eventful." Sybil tells him as she subtley runs her hand around her back, feeling the scraps.
"Sounds like fun," Jax replied.
"It was. We had to speak to the president about certain things." Sybil told him.
"You know the president?" Jax wondered.
"Breifly. He was a governor when me and my cousin helped with his campaign." Sybil says.
"Sounds like you and your cousin did a good job." Jax stared at her.
"Yeah. It was hard work." Sybil stated that before their attention was caught, Tara was coming with Thomas, as she told him.
"Gemma's awake." Tara said, making him nod before turning back to her.
"We're having the Grim Bastards interview tomorrow. I would like you to be there." Jax tells her.
"Okay, I'll be there." Sybil nodded before she left to get her crew. Tara watched her walk away. She looked at Jax, who stared after her. Tara walked away from him, angry.
Troy Bellingg's House (Washington, D.C)
Troy leaned back as he watched Sybil's every moment. He watched the moment, or small moment, that she and the leader of SAMCRO had. He could tell there was tension between the two. In his room was the Rico case and what they knew about the motorcycle crew, Samcro. He knew that Sybil would want to make him another one of the kings. The Kings was Pope's biggest backups after his right-hand man, August Marks. There's nothing to know about the Kings. The Kings were like ghosts until the Pope needed them. They were dangerous, too. The FBI knew they might range from Europe to Japan to Africa and South America.
He knew after Damon's death that Sybil Pope would have control over every last king there was. Jason, Marcus and Rio will help behind the scenes. He knew how Rio was, though. He's been updating them her whereabouts. They knew she was in Charming and it wouldn't be long before Rio decided to see his Sybil. He got up to find the file that he wanted to look into.
Jax Teller.
Sybil's House (Charming)
Sybil came to her house only to see her father, Damon Pope, waiting for her. A smile rushed on her face as she speed-walked to her father. Even though they had their ups and downs, he was still her mentor and her world. Sybil hugged her father tight, just happy to be in his arms, before she led him inside. He looked around as she went to the kitchen to get them something to drink.
"It looks like Auggie did well," Damon said, crossing his legs as Sybil walked over with water.
"He did really well. It's fits." Sybil smiled.
"So, how's your fixing coming?" Damon sarcastically told his daughter as he sipped from the water.
"Everything is going as planned. This misstep with Gemma and his children getting hurt might put him on a cold pace. If Gemma doesn't lie and tell him we had something to do with that, Sybil commented.
"His mother is a mass manipulator at heart. You'll have to make him see that before everything else. And how's everything on the other side of the focus?" Damon questioned his daughter.
"It's fine." Sybil says this as her father looks at her with suspicious eyes.
"Just fine?" Sybil asked.
"Dad, it's fine." Sybil smiled at him.
"Okay." Damon gave her a knowing look.
"So, dinner? What would you like? I can make your favorite." Sybil hops up as she walks to the kitchen to look through the freezer, finding two steaks.
"What about a steak dinner?" Sybil waved the steaks as her dad nodded. He had watched his daughter cook food for her and him. He knows that she found some things out in Washington. Eli had once told him about Thorngate. He was surprised that Eli knew about it since he was head of command. The commander of B613. Once dinner was done, they sat at the dinner table as they ate.
"I heard that the black motorcycle gang Grim Bastards is joining SAMCRO. How's that fare?" Damon says as he cuts into his steak.
"Their intention is tomorrow night. Jax asked me to come." Sybil replied.
"I'm happy things are coming into play. Getting black into the club. And Opie?" Damon said as he sipped wine this time.
"Last I heard, he was okay. Troy has Manning looking after him." Sybil said. Damon knew who Troy was. Like he said, he knew everything about his daughter. Troy used to be a pain in his side when he was in the FBI. He wanted to know about the kings that he had scattered across the continents.Which is why he put his daughter in his sight.
They spoke all night about their next plans before he and she shared a hug, and he gave her a kiss on the forehead before leaving. She knew her father would be back soon. She couldn't tell him about Thorngate. Her father would pay a lot of money just to get it in his hands. She went to take a shower before she lotioned up and put on her night clothes before reading a book. She sat in silence as she read before her phone rang.
"Are we on a secure, secure line?" Sybil smiled into the phone.
"Yes, I made sure to secure it; we're fine." Fitz leans back in his office chair.
"So how was today?" Sybil questioned.
"Olivia and Mellie teamed up against me on a case. A nineteen-year-old girl named Jenny Nystorm was killed by one of the ambassadors. She was also a gossiper, owned a blog and everything. She was known for going to politics, hanging out with them, and gossiping about it. Her parents wanted justice." Fitz mentions.
"That's understandable; even if their child did that, that's still their child at the end of the day. It's sad that she had to die like that." Sybil empathized with the whole thing.
"I heard from Olivia that you went back to California." Fitz's husky voice states.
"I did, and I still have six months to help this crew." Sybil sat her book on her end table before sunking down into her bed.
"The leader, Jax Teller, is there anything there?" Fitz asked, waiting for her answer.
"He's married, Fitz. Come on." Sybil sighed.
"You have a type, then," Fitz joked.
"You know what I'm hanging up for." Sybil laughed, pretending she was hanging up, before Fitz told her not to hang up.
"I'm joking." Fitz waved off.
"How's Mellie and the baby?" Sybil asked
"She's fine. Mellie is being Mellie as always. And the baby is okay." Fitz answered.
"Mellie will always be Mellie. She puts your head on straight." Sybil cuddled into her bed.
"And you make me lose it." Fitz smoothly talked to her.
"And you are a pain in my ass." Sybil joked.
"My heart." Fitz smiled.
"I'll speak to you soon; I have work to do." Sybil smiled.
"I'll be waiting." He told her before they both said their goodbyes before hanging up. Sybil went to sleep with a smile on her face.
SAMCRO CLUBHOUSE (CHARMING)
In the streets, all the residents of Charming could see were the orange and black colors of the Grim Bastards as they rode to the SAMCRO clubhouse. T.O. Owens rode with his crew and their old ladies as they started to come up to Teller-Morrow Autoshop. SAMCRO waited for them as they pulled in the parking lot. Once parking, the Grim Bastards walked to meet up with Samcro as they stood there silently. It wasn't until T.O. took off his glasses that the boys started smiling and hugging each other.
"How you been?" T.O told Jax with a smile.
"I've just been doing business, man," Jax stated.
"I heard what happened to Ope, man," T.O sadly tells him, making Jax nod.
"Thanks, man," Jax says.
"No problem." T.O waved off.
"Let's get your intention started. Ready to be a reaper." Jax smiled
"Let's do it. You're making a lot of changes, man." T.O said before they all walked in.
"Curtesy of a partner of mine. Sybil Pope." Jax states this as they go to their meeting table.
"I heard of her father, Damon, but I didn't hear of her," T.O. says.
"She's coming today to watch the initiation," Jax tells him.
T.O. looked shocked. He was also curious about meeting Sybil. SAMCRO was working with a Sista. Oh, yeah, he can't wait to meet her. The person in question pulled into the parking lot, with Michael opening up her car door as Sybil stepped out of the car. She fixes her suit jacket before walking forward. She walked inside the clubhouse as the two clubs finished talking. She knocked on the doors, making Tig open the door to see Sybil.
"Gentlemen." Sybil nodded before going over to the seat Tig was sitting in.
"You must be Sybil Pope." T.O says.
"And you are?" Sybil said with her hand in front of him.
"T.O Cross." T.O. told her, shaking her hand.
"I'm sure Jax will brief you on everything that happened. My father gave me 6 months to turn Salvador into an empire." Sybil explained.
"What plans do you have for SAMCRO?" T.O asked.
"I like you already. You asked questions. Others don't expect you and Jax." Sybil crossed her legs.
"SAMCRO already has a lot of obstacles. The Irish, Galindo.SAMCRO will also be in legit business. This is a good start. Diosa is another good start. Other businesses will be good, too. You can be legit and do the dirty things behind it. You just have to know the right people." Sybil explained.
"And who are the right people?" T.O. was intrigued.
"Politicians, businessmen, and people in higher places." Sybil named.
T.O. looked at Jax before nodding.
"Okay, then when do we start?"
"Two people will represent the Grim Bastards, while the Grim Reapers will contain LODI. New Jackets. The color is still the same, but the two representatives will wear SAMCRO colors." Jax responded, almost looking at Sybil for confirmation. She liked the idea.
"We will give you a new grovel, and we'll party all night." Jax smugly smiled as the boys cheered.
"Who are the men that you trust here to represent your crew?" Sybil asked.
"Menace and Sticky." T.O. to the two men in the back.
"Okay, then I'll let Jax tell you about the information on our cargo in LODI." Sybil gave Jax the okay to tell him about Opie.
"And before I go, we are a team, partners. Write down ideas for businesses." Sybil stands as Bobby brings over SAMCRO kutes for Meance and Sticky. And the new Grim Reapers came along with their new grove. Meance and Sticky put on their new kutes as T.O. and his crew put on theirs. Dapping and bro hugging the crew as they joined. T.O. and Jax stepped away from Dio Sybil as they talked.
"Try to expand your territory, if it means making arrangements with other crews. And businesses. I'll spot you the money. And we'll go from there. I'm investing in both of you." Sybil said as she opened her check book, writing each a million dollars. She was testing them to see if they were going to ask her what she really wanted.
"Sybil, that's too much." Jax says to her
"No, we're partners, remember. You open legit businesses to make money in 2 months. I don't care what it is. Get it done." Sybil tells them before she puts her checkbook in her bag and walks away. It's sad that they both failed; she'll have to teach them.
"She's not that bad." T.O. said as he touched the check.
"Yeah, she's cool." Jax smiles.
"You're starting to like her, aren't you??" T.O started to smile. The leader of SAMCRO likes a sistasista. He never thought he'd see the day.
"It's just business." Jax denied before they walked away.
Mayor Jacob Hale Office (CHARMING)
When Jacob Hale came to work this morning, he never would've thought he would meet the beautiful woman who would give him all the funds and friends to change Charming into something extraordinary. When he had walked out his building, she was standing right by his car. He wondered who she was at first. She couldn't be a hooker or a homeless person. She stood like someone with power.
"You're Jacob Hale?" She asked him.
"Yes. And you are?" Jacob replied.
"Sybil Pope." Sybil acknowledged before holding her hand out to him.
"Jax had told me you wanted to talk." Jacob told her.
"Jax told me all about your scheme to take Charming to the next level. And I'll help you do it." Sybil smiled.
"You're going to invest on me?" Jacob wondered.
"I am. Me and you, Mr. Hale, are going to change Charming for the better. I'll keep in touch, Mr. Hale." Sybil smiled.
"Are you going to allow me to bring back my housing that I was planning before SAMCRO messed it up??" Jacob called out as he stared after her.
"Enjoy your day at work. You'll find a surprise in your office." Sybil said before leaving. She had another pit stop before she was going to turn in for the day.
"What." Jacob muttered before going to his office. There was a briefcase on his desk before he slowly walked over to it, wondering what it was and hoping it wasn't a bomb. He slowly opened it, hoping he wouldn't die, before seeing the cash, which was 500 thousand dollars. She left a note and a number for a beautiful man, Jason Deluca. The Dilf billionaire. Jacob looked at the money and the number with her note Use wisely" before smiling.
DIOSA (ELK LODGE)
Nero had returned from the hospital with Gemma. He had told her that she had to come clean to Tara and Jax because she was high-driving the kids. He knew she didn't want to lose her grandkids, but she acted irresponsibly. Jax's kids almost got hurt. He sat in his office when Lyla, Opie's girl, came in to tell him he had a guest.
"Nero, Hey, you have a guest here to see you," Lyla told him, making him nod.
"Okay, let them in." Nero responded, but he was wondering who the guest was.
The woman that came was unfamiliar to him, but she was beautiful. Even Lyla could see that. She fitted her pantsuit nicely as it showed her curves, and her heeled pointed shoes gave her height.
"Sybil," she said as she held her hand out to him.
"Nero Padilla." Nero responded with a handshake. Her hands were soft, yet she shook his hand with a strong yet firm hand.
"I'm Jax's other partner. I'll be helping Jax for six months. I wanted to know all of Jax's partners. So what can you tell me about you, Mr. Padilla?" Sybil said with her legs crossed.
"I heard about you. Sybil Pope. Yeah. I guess I can tell you about me." Nero agreed. Even though she already knew about Nero, she wanted to know what type of person he was. She could tell he was a passionate men. He was handsome, too. A charmer as well. Him and Rio had a lot in common. When he told her that he wanted to make 1.3 million dollars so he could give his kid a farm, pulled her heart strings. She listened to him, nodding.
"You're a passionate man Nero Padilla. I know you are only doing this for your kid 's farm, How would you like to expand your territory? Just like I'm giving to Jax and his crews and the Mayor. Two million. You get to buy your kid's farm and still work with Jax. Flip these two million and create your empire. You have two months to get started. I know that there are other people here who would give you trouble. I'm giving you an ultimatum to hire your boys from your crew, or I can set up a crew for you." Sybil spoke to him. Is she an angel. Money that he needed at his fingertips.
"Two months later, I just starting Diosa. " Nero states.
"And they didn't build the pyramids in a day. Two months, and that's it." Sybil stared at him.
"What's in it for you?" He asked.
"Now you're asking the right question; they see money and think, Why would she give me this amount? I'm in it for the long haul. 50/50 straight down the middle. The mayor will have help from a friend of mine to get Charming on the map. Jax and his crew will start pulling their weight, creating money for the both of us. I don't give out money unless it benefits me. You buy your farm, and you flip the rest, creating as many businesses as you can until the two months are up." Sybil smiles, almost happy with herself.
"Does Jax know this?" Nero questions her.
"I'm sure you'll tell him. So do we have a deal?" Sybil asked, holding out her hand.
Nero thought about it first. 50/50. He could do that. He'll have to ask the girls about helping him. She was a business woman. Of course, she will want her money back. He didn't hesitate before shaking her hand.
"Nice doing business with you, Mr. Padilla. Let's have this conversation soon." Sybil said before leaving. She whistled a song as she went, smiling at Lyla, who stared at her weirdly. Sybil went home.
Sybil's House (Charming)
Her phone had rung after she had gotten out of the shower. Her soft robe wrapped around her body as she sat on her bed. Fitz was calling her. She walked over to her phone before picking it up," she says into the phone.
"Hi," he said back.
"How are you?" Sybil asked him.
"Fine. I just woke up. I'm here in Tokyo." Fitz told her.
"Tokyo, a beautiful place." Sybil changed into her pajamas after moving up her body.
"Maybe I can take you here." Fitz told her. He stood, looking out the window. It wasn't easy being president.
"And have my face plastered." Sybil joked before continuing, "They'll burn me to the stake and wonder why this Oakland mobster's daughter is fooling around with the president.
"I really don't care what the journalist says because, as long as I have you,. It's all that matters." Fitz tells her.
Fitz made her heart warm up with her non-existent blush, but she felt shy.
"Same." Sybil agreed.
"So how was the club?" Fitz asked.
"It was good. Added more people in and investments for all." Sybil laughed at the last bit.
"Investing in the club," Fitz states.
"With a 50/50 interest fee. Only one asked the right question. The leader Jax is starting to trust me too much to not ask, What do I want?" Sybil responds before wrapping her hair up.
"Then you'll have to tell him what you want. They're not going to understand you mean business until you make it known to them." Fitz tells her.
"Are you sure you weren't a businessman in your past life?" Sybil smiled, the phone now on speaker, as she did her nightly routine.
"Maybe you'd be my wife, and we've got 5 kids and a white Pickett fence. Two-story house." Fitz says as he starts to get dressed for the G8 conference.
"5 kids!" Sybil says this in disbelief. She continued, "We are going to be busy." Sybil joked, making him and her laugh before the sound of knocking at her door cut her off. Fitz could tell she was quiet, on the other hand.
"Sybil, baby. You okay?" Fitz asked her. Sybil grabbed her gun from her end table before walking down the stairs.
"Stay on the line. Someone's knocking on my door." Sybil tells him. He listened as she went to the door, opening it to see the person she had never seen in a while.
(Pretend it's dark out)
"Hey Mama." Rio smirks at her.
A/N: (4,322 words) (unedited)
I hope you like this chapter! I kind of can't wait until Scandal s2 episodes 8 to 9, because of when Fitz gets hurt. She's going to show her ass to everyone. Rio is now contacting his girl. Manny Montana is so fine. I had to include him. Sorry if I'm missing any words or spellings. Vote, comment, and share. Let me know if there are any mistakes or places where words shouldn't be. I've been having problems with my computer as of late. Few chapters would be mostly in the SOA world until scandal episode 8.
