Update four
"Colt.45"
The snow continued to fall heavily and the ice cold winds made Lara clutch on tighter to the leather coat she was wearing, her head and shoulder were covered in tiny white dots and so were her black boots. The level of snow was lower then when she was outside earlier, it only came up to her ankles now but it was slowly rising.
She looked up at the dark sky and gazed at the stars and snow that was falling on her face, she closed her eyes and letting the snow fall freely on her skin, 'if only all my moments could be as peaceful as this', then she opened her eyes and continued to walk down the long street.
When she reached the end she turned right and down a dark alley, a deep heavy beat was vibrating through the floor making the aluminium trash cans move across the ground, Lara could feel it through he boots tickling her feet. The music was coming from a nightclub in the alley, it was called 'The glass shadow' Lara knew it and the owner.
His name was Peter Colt, he was an ex-American FBI agent, but he wasn't on good terms with them anymore. They had sent him on a mission to assassinate a UN VIP, but they had set him up because he got a little bit to nosy. Colt managed to make it out alive but lost a leg as he escaped from the explosion killing everyone except him. Now he has a false leg and a steady business as the owner of the nightclub he lived above, and for extra cash he used his old contacts to get fake documents and weapons.
Lara walked past the long line of people waiting to get in the club and stopped in front of a door nearby to the main entrance, she knocked and the small square in the door slid open revealing two brown eyes that stared at her.
"Who are you?" a gruff male voice asked
"I am here to see Colt," the square closed again, Lara sighed and knocked again to be greeted by the same brown eyes "Tell him that the Tomb Raider is here."
"Alright, wait here." The door opened and Lara walked in. The owner of the brown eyes was a tall man with black hair he was very muscular and her had an Uzi in a shoulder holster. He left Lara by the door for about five minutes till he returned "I am Victor, Follow me." He said coldly then walked through an open door to his right.
He lead her though the club, Rob Zombie's dragula was blaring out of the speaker sending the kids on the dance floor wild. Lara followed Victor through the crowd of people towards a door at the end of the dance floor with two bouncers standing in front of it. Victor leant foreword to one of them and whispered something in his ear, the thug opened the door and stepped aside.
"lady Croft," Victor pointed to the door "This is where I leave you. I trust you know the way to his room." Lara nodded and walked through the door and was shut in.
She was in a tiny damp room with a single light, to her left was a spiral staircase and in front of her was another door. She smiled as she remembered which way to go and took the stairs. Her boots made a clicking sound as they connected with the metal steps, at the top of the stairs there was a wooden trapdoor, Lara pushed it open and pulled herself up into the room.
She got up from her knees and brushed the dust off her trousers then she closed the trapdoor behind her and then walked further into the room. The walls were a very dark red and all of the furniture was either the same colour or black, there was a round shaped bed with red silk sheets at the end of the room, there was a flat screen TV against the wall at the foot of the bed and tall red lamps lit the room with artificial light, 'Just like him to have no windows, he obviously hasn't changed much'.
The sound of a door opening came from behind her, she turned around and smiled
"Good evening Colt.45." she said
"Long time no see Tomb Raider," He smiled "I'm surprised you remember my nickname let alone where I live, its been at least…7 years, a lot has happened since then. I heard the good news, congratulations."
"Thank you. Not too much has changed, your still here." Lara looked at him, he hadn't changed too much. He had shoulder length brown hair tied back in a pony tail, bright green eyes and snow white pale skin "Your so pale. Don't you go out anymore?"
"Is it that noticeable?" he sighed and limped over to her "Well, as you know it can get very cold here. And as you also know I am a leg short of two," He lifted up his left jean leg and revealed a wooden leg that started from his knee "And the combination is very painful. So I have learnt how to live without ever setting foot outside."
"You look like shit." Lara said as he stepped into the light, his hair was had grey streaks almost everywhere, he had bags under his eyes and his skin was beginning to wrinkle
"Thank you," He frowned at her "But you," he smiled and raised and eyebrow "Still look as sexy as ever. Are you still having fun with that guy West?"
"No," Lara said coldly as it was a subject she would rather not talk about "Anyway I am not here to catch up, I need some documents and weapons."
"Lara I didn't mean to piss you off," Colt said gently "How can I help you?"
"I need documents for carrying a Triumph motorbike and weapons on a plane, and I am going to need to delve into your private stash." Colt opened his mouth about to protest "don't worry I can pay you."
"Good, I will go do the documents now and you go get what you need." he handed her a black duffle bag "You still remember the code."
"I have the memory of an elephant." Lara winked then went though the door that Colt had come from.
Lara typed in the code, 1215, and the metal door swung open. She stepped in and smiled, 'Just like a kid in a candy store', the entire room was filled with guns and every type of killing device ever made all displayed neatly on shelves
Lara walked over to the shelf nearest to her and picked up four Uzi's, a desert eagle, and whatever else she could find that suited her including a Viper SMG and a Mega Vega
'That should be enough for the both of us. Better get loads of ammo.', she grabbed as much as she could and added it to the bag. She picked up the bag now heavy with guns and walked towards the door, but as she was about to leave something caught her attention, the explosives. She took three packets of C-4 explosives with devices and some grenades. She smiled to herself then left, 'I hope Colt won't mind to much that I have cleaned him out.'.
"Croft I hope you didn't take to much," Colt said as he heard Lara come in. He was now sitting in front of an apple computer "A guy has to protect himself."
"And those thugs downstairs aren't paid enough to do it for you?" Lara asked as she put the bag on the floor and then pulled out a stack off euros from her inside coat pocket and threw it on the desk "3000 euros should cover it."
"I would normally ask more, but for a friend I will make an exception. Your documents are over there." He pointed to a small coffee table
"Thank you." She put a hand on his shoulder and squeezed it gently, shrugged then leant foreword and kissed his cheek "It was nice to see you."
"Croft," He looked up at her "look after yourself." Lara smiled and nodded then she picked up the bag and put the documents in her coat, then she was gone.
Once she was outside she felt extremely depressed, she tried to pretend she didn't know why but she knew. She knew it was because of how much Colt had changed, he was once a very athletic and hansom man but now he was a pale, acrophobic, weak man. Lara sighed and headed to the main road, she looked up at the sky again, the snow wasn't as thick as before now she could see the stars and the clear night sky, 'Tempus Edax Rerum. Time the devourer of everything.', she looked over at the club again, she knew that was probably the last time she would ever see Colt again.
Good? Bad? Reviews PLEASE!!
