MAX PAYNE 2
Prologue: The flesh of fallen Angels
'Valkyr is dead', the words came hollowly from under a black mask, at the end of the table.br
Even though all knew, and understood without doubt that Nicole Horne had died at the hands of Max Payne in the shootout at Aezir HQ, Loke still took himself in wondering whether the old hag had really died.
It seemed a little ... extravagant ...dying in a chopper, at Max Payne's hands, after all the other had died by bullets.
He shook himself; the thoughts had come and gone for the whole month since the previous member of the clan had died, and he realized now as ever, that he would not get an answer before Valkyr decided to show herself.
In a white room, seven people sat, trying so hard not too look at the vacated chair, they could have as well stared.
None was known by the name they used in public; the were the Fallen Angels, and a ordinary man had managed to get one of them.
Idly fingering the hilt of his colt in his shoulder holster, Loke watched Thor grow pale under the satin wolf mask; it was rumored he had something to do with Payne being aimed at Nicole.br
"In the Land of the Blind, the one eyed man is King." The words made famous by Payne, echoed fitfully in his head.
Horne had lead them, but even when the crazy bitch had been alive, Loke and others had plotted to take her place, and some had gone to steps to aid Payne, Loke among them, and now, the Fallen had disolved.
'I propose we get rid of Payne' Came from Mephisto in the end.
He was ambitious, overly so; something had to be done with him.
A plan forming in his head, Loke intervened.
'No, we can use him yet...'
Well, whaddya think?, a good start eh?
