"no, don't leave me" Alyx's voice, and his vision faded, his final view was of her hugging Eli's body, Dog just behind her his head almost bowed in mourning, his vision then went fuzzy, like someone had taken off his glasses, and he realised with a start that he was standing again, he tried to walk but found that he couldn't, he knew where he was, and he braced himself for his employer's entrance, several seconds later he heard the G-man's voice
"I must apologise for removing you in your...time of grief" his voice didn't sound very sorry at all, it actually sounded malicious, just hearing it make him shiver "however, your task has been completed and payment...extracted" he certainly didn't like how he said extracted "usually you would be placed back in stasis, however with your...exemplary record, I have decided on a...easier assignment for you, a gift if you will" it was at this point that his employer appeared his face coming into focus before his body, if Gordon could frown and snarled he would have, there was no way he was leaving the rebel's, Alyx, to there fates, it was his war and nobody was going to stop him, his employer sensed his unwillingness and sighed, straitening his tie before continuing "if it is any consolation the rebellion will succeed, as was the agreement, and ms. Vance will survive" his employer sighed again, brushing some imaginary lint from his suit "however, you will not be working alone, as the...interested party has requested two of my best operatives, you will be working with one of my oldest operatives; the watcher" he gestured with his hand and next to Gordon appeared a man no older than 17, if Gordon ever imagined the G man's son then this would be him, from the black suit to the briefcase he held.
Suddenly the watcher disappeared and was replaced with a room, Gordon immediately recognised it as the changing rooms and HEV storage from black mesa, he felt his HEV suit disassembling itself, and being removed by some otherworldly force, spinning, reminding Gordon of the combine weapon destruction sequence he had encountered at the citadel, slowly they stopped spinning and began to change, the plates melded into one another, flowing and shifting like they were made of liquid metal, before reforming into the plates, it looked no different, but he assumed the G-man had done something to it.
The suit was placed back on his body, the plates felt noticeably lighter, which was good, he didn't smile for two reasons though, one, he physically couldn't and two he was still employed by the G-man, and forced to fight in another war for him.
He mentally sighed and prepared himself as his vision went completely white.
So how was it? Good? Bad? I need to know, by the way next chapter will be in Gordon's POV and the chapter after in Alyx's.
