==Castellammarese War== In 1931, Masseria declared war on [[Salvatore Maranzano]], his arch-rival, not realising that Vito and Lucky, who had become Masseria' s second in command, were secretly conspiring with Maranzano. On the 15th of April, Lucky met with Masseria in the Coney Island resort to discuss the situation with Maranzano. When Lucky excused himself, Vito, [[Albert Anastasia]], [[Bugsy Siegel]] and [[Joe Adonis]], acting under orders from Lucky and Marazano, rushed in wearing masks and gunned Masseria down. With Masseria dead, Lucky took over his family with Vito as his second in command. Soon after, Lucky realized Maranzano was going to kill him and Vito, so they sent a hit squad to kill him first. The following year, Vito married Anna Vernotico, after her husband Gerard was found strangled, likely on the orders of Vito or Lucky.
