Chapter 1
Alec held himself ready as the rain fell softly down. An old almost comfortable feeling of being on a mission settled upon him. This is after all what he is highly trained to do. His genetically enhanced vision making the target's position clear even through the veil of rain.
Alec quickly surprised a twinge of guilt at what he was about to do. Alec sighs silently 'waiting is always the worst part' he thought. Quick flashes of other mission and mission briefing, intrude on his waiting. The rain finally stopping falling, yet Alec still waits, flexing muscles just enough to keep them warm and limber. He considers various alternative options and mission scenarios, evaluating and rejecting option.
'No best to wait till he is asleep, highest chance of mission success. 3 a.m. should be ideal period, subject asleep, low level of traffic, and everyone who is out minding their own business. Not that anyone is too likely to report to the cops that saw someone doing a spider-man imitation. I wonder if any of the nomilies can actually spin spider web? At least I know the layout of the place.'
A grin forms 'Don't want to go bump in the night after all'. A sliver of moon peaks through the clouds and Alec pauses in his last check of the grappling wire, and the rest of the specially procured equipment, once the clouds again cover the moon he swings over and down to the penthouse apartment, owned by Logan Cale aka Eyes Only.
Chapter 2
Logan awakes suddenly to the feeling of being smoothed. He fights to breath only to realize that the cloth being held over his mouth and nose is covered with chloroform derivative. Logan felt his consciousness drift away, struggling to break the grip of his attacker. His physical struggle matched by his mental struggle to get some idea of who or why, from a long list of potential candidates.
As Logan feels his muscles responding less and weaker, he wishes he could have worn the exoskeleton to bed, the extra strength would give his attacker a real surprise; perhaps it could have the difference. The time spent Logan in the wheelchair having increased his upper body strength, however he couldn't budge the arm holding the cloth to his face. Fear fuelling his attempt to break the grip on him, all the while holding his breath as long as possible. The thought of those enemies who would pay extra to have him delivered alive limits those who might be behind the attack, however leaving only the most ruthless.
For a bitter moment, Logan considers the unfairness, the thought of death being no strange to him, still he had fought already so hard to re-evaluation his life since the bullet wound in the back. His lungs burning he forced himself to go limp, his physical attempt having met with no success his mind working overtime to try and salvage what it could. Logan feeling the weight on him shifting slightly, starts having hope that his deception worked, only to have both hope and the last bit of air in his lungs forced out by a sudden pressure below his ribs. The involuntary gasp was all the chloroform needed to finish sending Logan into unconsciousness.
