Tomb Raider : The Return of the enemy.
Chapter 1 : Grim Discovery
There was a chill in the breeze, in the Croft manor. The Clock dawned 6am so Lara got up and went down the stairs in her navy velvet dressing gown. She saw a trail of blood leading to the kitchen. She followed it anxiously, to find an injured Winston, ( her butler) lying on the floor near a battered back door.
" Oh my lord!"said Lara, stunned at what she saw, " I'll call an ambulance!"
" No need, really im the one who should be calling, calling the police!" replied Winston,
" really fetch that telephone over here!"
Lara looked at him sarcasticly, " Yeah, right!"
When the ambulance arrived Winston oredered them away for a minute so he could have a word with Lara.
"Lara, i think someone has stolen something, check the artifact room!" then he gasped with loss of breath,
and fell to sleep.
The paramedics took him to, St. Patricks Hospital.
Lara waved them off, and ran to the artifact room. She pushed on the bookcase and it rotated 360degrees letting her in at 180degrees. She was appauled at what she saw. All four of the artifacts had been stolen.
" Oh heck!" She gasped.
She ran at the wall and came out at the other side, then saw a piece of paper, pinned to the opposite side of the room. She sprinted and read the paper.
Lara, we have taken your artifacts and treasures and
have paid you with the grief of losing you butler.
If you'd like to risk losing you life
meet me in Angelo's Pizzeria in Venice,
on the twenty-first of this month at six pm.
AN OLD FRIEND
"Well, sadly for you, you didn't pay me as you said, Winstons alive, and when i find you ill get compensation, and you'll be in it!" Lara muttered.
The Lara heard a helicoper take off and gave a weak smile then went upstairs and got changed.
