== Realization and Closure. ==
During his time in RUST Franky made a Life Debt to Cydney Lune as she was the one Person who had always been there for him as a Ride or Die, when Franky was going away for Drug trafficking she helped him cover the fine as-well as visited him everyday while he was in Jail. it was due to this loyalty that Franky made the decision to Protect her with his life if it had to be done. 
When RUST v Cerberus happened this conflicted Franky to the point where he would just be chilling up at the Cabins in Paleto, but he was against the fact that RUST were targeting Civillians as he has always believed that Civilians should not be targeted unless they really deserve it, Because of the standards that he holds so high for others He left RUST as he realised that he could not continue to be loyal to them, he told this to Perez who took it upon himself to Blood Franky out of RUST. 
After leaving RUST Franky went to Mexico, Paris and London. This trip was a soul searching trip for Franky as when he came back he made the decision to move back to the southside. To the Barrio. During this time the Vagos were in a state of Civil War, Juan had asked Franky and a couple of other OG's for help to deal with the Vagos who had betrayed them. Franky made his way to the Barrio to start hunting the New generation of Vagos for betraying his brother, however during this... he realised that a civil war is not the answer and everyone should at-least try and work it out and work together, the suggestion was made to Lex that Franky would come back and help him to Build the Vagos as an OG in an Advisory type of roll, As Franky was never Blooded out of the Vagos, Speedy had disbanded the old Vagos to allow the new Vagos to rebuild in its stead. 
When he was back, he brought his Business to Jamestown as well as former OGs waking up to come back aswell, However during this time He was feeling like things weren't right, that slowly he was Realising that the New Vagos were not the same as the ones he had once been a part of. When Cyd was kidnapped by Kyle Pred, Franky saw red and wanted to hunt him due to the Pact that he had made with her, after their friend Tex was kidnapped by Cockington Webster (DHEAD) Franky in his anger asked the Vagos for help to kidnap him due to him doing a Drive by in the Barrio. Franky was with Cyd at the time who refused to leave his side because she would feel safer with Franky around her rather than being somewhere else. Franky made a call to Larry Knox asking for there not to be any shooting at the meeting so they could clear the air as to what had happened and why. Larry agreed to this and told Franky it was still OBlock4L, During the meeting Franky explained his pact with Cyd and that all he wanted was Kyle Pred. Marty shot Cyd, Franky tried to Shoot Marty but was gunned down by 4Head. Due to Larry's promise being broken Franky decided that it was time for him to Pledge his loyalty to Lang and Speedy and help them with the ongoing conflict. This was bringing heat on the Vagos and Franky spoke with Lang about this. Lang hired him as Security and Speedy promised that the Vagos would have as many Free guns and supplies that they would need if they had to go to War with GG or Mandem. Mandem and GG had previously went to the Barrio and gunned down the Vagos because of Franky's involvement. Vagos took it upon them-self to throw Franky under the bus to GG and Mandem (they defended Mandem over the man who was giving them Free guns) Franky saw this as the Vagos not being the same as they used to be as During his time when one of the boys would mess up he would back them Regardless if it brought them War or not, because it is part of the Vagos code. after a conversation with Arturo and Baby Loko. Franky made the realization that this is not the Same Vagos, Vagos not interested in any money or connections that were promised to Franky for helping and not wanting to back Franky up at all. Franky made the decision to Leave and fully be done with the Vagos and finally achieve closure from Jamestown.
Working security at Roosters, Cyd informed Lang that Franky wanted to speak to him. Franky brought up the fact that it wasn't the same Vagos and that they wouldn't even consider backing him but rather throw him under the bus. Franky told Lang that once this conflict is over he would build his own thing with the Connections and Friendship that Lang had promised him. Lang said to Franky why would you build your own thing when your Family has always been here, at Roosters, with Cerberus with him, Speedy, Denzel and Harry, Franky said he didn't wanna jump on anyone's back, where Lang told him, there is a shit show coming and he needs someone like Franky, That the boat Lang is on is a huge boat and Franky is welcome to Hop on the Boat.
== Vagos ==
During Franky's search for his daughter in the early days, he met JB and Mina who introduced him to the Vagos.  One day, Franky came across information that might be useful to the Vagos and waited for 2 hours just to talk to KJ because JB wasn’t around. This was followed by an introduction to Speedy and marked the beginning of his journey as a Vagos.
Franky had never failed to follow orders given to him and quickly became one of the most dependable members of Vagos. He successfully completed tasks given by Speedy to find weed seeds and rob a weed farm. He also found the public meth lab in Harmony.
Franky’s loyalty was tested when his friend, JB, confessed that he had snitched to the police about crimes. Although he had kept Vagos's name out of it, snitching is the worst thing one can do among criminals. Franky informed Benji Ramos, who was a high command at the time, instead of putting JB on a plane to Peru. Then, Franky was ordered to shoot and ocean dump JB as a loyalty test. Although this was a sad moment, he did it.
Franky's loyalty did not go unnoticed and despite not being promoted to Prospect immediately, he was thought as the best prospect and his promotion seem inevitable. His constant hard work and loyalty got his promotions eventually and became a very important member of the Vagos. When Reggie was putting together a crew together for cooking meth, Franky was his first choice along with Raymundo. His drug operation proved to be pivotal for the gang's fund, allowing them to grow from strength to strength and purchase a Meth Lab for $5 Million. He was on working his way up to become the Vice Jefe after the deportation of Miguel prior to the disbandment of the Vagos. During his break in Scotland, he was contacted by Baby Loko and Junior to come back on the next flight as things were hitting the fan. Upon his arrival, he was picked up from the airport by his brothers. They went to meet Arturo Ortiz and spoke about the current state of the southside and the Vagos. Arturo had ultimately decided to leave the Vagos with Junior and Baby Loko. After many conversations, Franky felt an energy that he had never felt before from his brothers; a feeling of defeat. In the end, Franky decided to leave the Vagos. 
After leaving the Vagos, Franky was distraught, confused and lost. After some deep conversations with his fiancé at the time, Selena Mendoza, Franky was convinced to go clean, get an expungement and try to become a cop. However, his efforts to stay clean ended after 22 days, he ultimately changed his mind because of Casanova's attitude towards him. That was when he began to hang out with Raymond, the leader of R.U.S.T. He continued to stray from his efforts to stay clean after hearing that cops were shooting at Raymond for no reason. He attempted to save Raymond but ended up in prison together.
== R.U.S.T ==
During Franky's Vagos days, he had always maintained a very positive relationship with R.U.S.T because of Speedy's relationship with Raymond and R.U.S.T was one of their greatest allies. During the time when Franky tried to stay clean, he regularly hung around with R.U.S.T. Despite having thoughts that no one, especially criminals, would want to spend time with him, R.U.S.T had always made him feel welcomed whenever he was at the Scrapyard. 
Prior to receiving an invite into R.U.S.T, R.U.S.T had concerns about where his loyalty lay because he came across a bit sus after spending a lot of time in smoke on the water and being "Speech -100". After his conversation with Meelo Graves, Franky decided to fully commit to R.U.S.T. Although, Franky was offered to be a Scrapling (PROSPECT), he wanted to prove his worth by starting from the bottom. In the end, Franky joined R.U.S.T as a Naked (HANGAROUND) before Xmas.
