## Misfits Battle

**Sonya** often sent workers to run pawn as a means of generating income and gaining a cryptocurrency known as pixerium. She was eventually given control of the pawn shop by **Speedy** and assembled a crew to tax and enforce the pawn shop. **Misfits** leader **OTT** also wanted control of the pawn shop and did not like **Sonya** claiming it as her own. **Misfits** and Black Betty had bloody shootouts in the south side over control of the pawn shop.

During this incident, **Sonya** spotted **Arthur Hammond** meeting with **OTT.** This led to a series of events resulting in the death of **David Barker** and the presumed death of **Sonya.**

## Legitimization of Black Betty, Inc.

Following **Sonya's** disappearance, **Sean Tinker,** who was second-in-command of Black Betty, decided to carry on her legacy by buying an office located in Vinewood. His intention was to shift the focus of the organization from a street gang towards a legitimate business as a cover for selling weapons and dealing cocaine in Vinewood. Not much progress was made until **Sonya** returned and assumed her role as leader and CEO. At this point **Gomer** officially joined the company as CFO and **Tinker** was head of security. During this time they pursued several business ventures including dealing guns, drugs, selling craftable items and continuing to employ workers to run pawn.

## Russians and Ballaz War

Black Betty began accepting contracts from **Arthur Hammond** on behalf of the **Vanilla Unicorn.** After an incident in which **The Russians** had kidnapped a worker from the strip club, **Arthur**, acting on a misunderstanding, had tasked them with sending a message. **Sonya** and **Gomer** kidnapped **Ballaz** member **Lil K** and released her with a message that the **Vanilla Unicorn** was off limits. In retaliation, **The Russians** and **Ballaz** kidnapped **Gomer** outside of Black Betty Inc.and a tense rooftop standoff ensued. Several bloody incidents followed including Black Betty kidnapping and shooting **Vladimir Ivanov**.

Black Bettyeventually made peace with the **Ballaz,** but the **Russians** continued to attack the office and **Black Betty** members. The war never officially ended but due to the inactivity of **Black Betty,** conflict between the two groups eventually stopped.

## HOA Incident

**Daryl Dixon** (at the time a member of Black Betty),was caught between his responsibilities with Black Betty and the **HOA**, both being groups who were generally weary of one another he was told by **Sonya** to drop the **HOA** if he wanted to stay in Black Betty. His counterparts in the **HOA** however did notforce him to choose a side, hence why he decided to leave BB. **Sonya** was later caught by members of the **HOA** robbing a Vinewood house and they questioned her as to why she was robbing homes in the area despite being warned not to previously. As a punishment they shot her and took her valuables. **Gomer** arrived and asked them to give back the money they took. **HOA** members **Siz Fulker** and **Denzel Williams** refused. **Gomer** then took **Sonya** and vowed to contact the **HOA**‘s employer **Matthew Payne** about the incident. However, **Gomer** was not aware of the actual relationship between the **HOA** and **Payne**, of which was much deeper than his relationship with Black Betty, therefore causing him to never follow up with any sort of punishment for the **HOA** and even personally approved of their actions towards her.

**Gomer**, **Sonya** and **Boe** ambushed the **HOA** at their headquarters in Vinewood in retaliation, **Siz** was the last man standing and got **Daryl** to safety while **Flippy** and **Denzel** were downed. Then in retaliation, the **HOA** used **Daryl** (who **Tinker** had trusted as a longtime friend and still had keys to BB's office) to access BB’s office stash and steal some of their goods, stashing them in **HOA** HQ and later **Siz's** personal stash houses. Later that day, the **HOA** also ambushed the group at their Vinewood mansion. They downed all members of Black Betty and were subsequently caught by the police when they crashed fleeing the scene.

## The End

Police including Officer **Kira Light** were investigating the organization due to a shooting which involved the group.Prior to leaving the city, **Sonya** and **Gomer** planned to move the business to cocaine sales in Vinewood.

Due to differences of opinion between **Sonya** and **Gomer** on how the company should be run and their plans being foiled by other parties the company struggled from internal and external pressures. Eventually, both **Gomer** and **Sonya** decided to leave the company.

With both heads of the companygone, **Tinker** assumed the position of CEO and recruited **Susie** to manage workers. **Susie** and **Tinker** had planned to revive the company until **Raja Bahadur** and **QuickFix** discovered those plans and put an end to them for good.

Black Betty, Inc**.** is currently defunct. For a brief time **Susie** and **Tinker** continued to buy goods and plotted to revive the company out of the prying eyes of the many enemies around them, with **Sonya** deciding to strike out on her own and not associate herself with the former members. But, by 2020 all former members had moved onto other endeavors (with any aspirations for reviving the group having been long since abandoned). The final nail in the coffin was the closure of the Job Center and other massive economic changes with the release of the 3.0 phone update in 2021, making the organization's business model unfeasible.
