He pulled the sight of the sniper rifle to his blue eye, aiming it from the top floor window down to the balcony across the street. His partner, Alicia Torres was destracting the target while he took aim.
With the pull of the trigger, the man Alicia was talking to was down with blood pouring from a wound on his head. Alicia gave the thumbs up to him, and he started his walk down the stairs.
His cell phone rang in his shirt pocket, and he flipped it to his ear. "Hello?" he said. "Shit, Ace. That guy you just popped one into had a freakin' army of guards outside the door. You gotta get here before they get m-" the phone cut off with a gunshot, and Ace dropped the cell. "No..." he wispered. He ran faster then he had even ran before, down those fourty flights of stairs, out the door and up the stairs of the other building. As he reached the last floor, his eyes met the one thing he had been dreading. Alicia lay on the ground, a pool of her own blood flowing around her.
Ace kneeled down beside her, and cradled her head in his hands. "I love you..." he wispered. There was no response, and Ace stood, drawing a pistol from his belt and started walking. "I will avenge you..." he yelled out, realesing a series of shots, shattering the windows and computers around him. Just then, a figure entered the room. "You Ace Derelli?" the figure asked, taking a cell phone from his pocket. Ace didn't answer, but started to walk by the figure.
"My name is Daniel Vellai. I work for a powerful buisnessman who dosnt want to see any pricks like that guy you just took out running this town. He's seen your work, and he wants you in charge of the city. This cellphone is for you. My boss has people lined up for you to work for them. Goodbye." he said, throwing the phone to Ace and leaving the room. Ace shrugged and put the phone in his pocket, and started down the stairs.
The phone rang as he finished walking the stairs. "That was fast..." he mumbled, answering it. "Meet me in the Oxygen Club parking lot." said the other voice before it clicked off and Ace returned the phone to his pocket, and jumped on it X16 Spyder motorcycle, and took off down the road.
