"Yeah, well, I'm teaching you what not to do then." He grins and takes another bite out of the gross looking thing that they call a sandwich.

"And if you're asking how big the magical crime scene is, well." He thumbs his chin, "There are criminal magic users all over the world. I've got contacts over in Russia and a few in China, one guy in South America somewhere. I think magic users probably influence or control the economies of a few smaller nations. You can be sure that you'll find at least one familia or gang or some other system in in most major cities around the world, and you can find smaller groups elsewhere. Now, not every magic user resorts to crime." He takes another bite, and he continues to talk with his mouth full. "But it winds up being pretty easy to fall into it, since that's were all the big kids are, and you'll never find a better support system than here. We can cover up stories about magic users, make people vanish completely, bust users out of jail. We can hide things nobody else can hide. We keep secrets and we're pretty good at it. Not to mention, we offer a lot of power, more so than any average gang. That lures people." Finally, he swallows and quits talking with his mouth full. He throws his arm over Vincent's shoulder again.

"I'm not going to say we're all best friends here in the underbelly of the world. Most of us are criminals. Pirates, murderers, hookers, thieves, hitmen, drug dealers and users, we've got a group of cyber hackers somewhere--you name it, we probably have it. We all share a common bond and common goal, to stay hidden.

"If you're asking about my boss, I think he has some reign over most the mideast of the United States and he's encroaching on the south, but we're not going anywhere near Mexico. That's Lady Death's territory and boy is she hell." His brows crinkle up as he thinks and thinks hard about something. "I think we're in cahoots with some guys in Canada and I think Australia. Might've been Austria, I forget. But my boss is pretty big. Padrino Fransisco is a ruthless man. I don't think you'll be meeting him, fortunately."
