Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness-The Way it Should Have Been (beta)

by Addicted Raider

Not continuing with this one. If you would like to read beta angel of darkness, you will soon see a story with a title fairly similar to this one. Lara finds herself running from the past. Much of the events in the pyramid have escaped her mind, and at the same time, a cult named the Cabal are trying to breed nephilim across the Earth... Can Lara stop them? (Beta version)

4. Chapter 4: Still Running

"Ugh…Where…am…I?" I asked rhetorically. I sat up slowly, and looked around. Bars covered the doors, and firm, grey walls surrounded me. One of the walls on the outside said

'Cellule de sécurité élevé 3'

It translated as

' High Security Cell 3'

Great. A high security cell. There had to be some way out. There's always a way out. I touched every brick, I tried pulling off the bars until

"Aha!" A part of the wall pushed back so I could find a passageway. An electric flex lay on the floor, so I picked it up.

"You are learning well Lara. Each challenge makes you stronger."

"What the-" Then I pulled out my amulet. I got a random flashback of what happened in the tomb. A blue light, a figure of a woman, and a breaking wall.

"Putai!" Putai was the one who'd helped me out of the tomb. Putai was the one that gave me this amulet! But that didn't matter right now.

I grabbed the electric flex and used it on the lock. The door opened and I peeked outside. No one. I sneaked into one of the police offices and grabbed a police radio. "Great! Now I can use this to hear where the police are!" I thought. I ran through the passageway in the wall I kicked over. It led me outside. On the police radio, it said

"Suspect escaped. Suspect is loose."

At the apartment block, the police had placed a gate at the top of the spiralling stairs. I used the electric flex again. The gate flew open, and I kicked open the apartment door. Behind the gate, I saw a police car.

"A spy! Now that's not very nice!" I said. I could barely see through the tinted windows, but I made out an officer picking up a walkie-talkie. I could pick up what he was saying through the radio, and he said

"Suspect has escaped. Call in air support!"

I ran inside, and the door shut behind me. I pulled a wardrobe in front. I could soon hear propellers, and soon policemen were banging on the door, trying to get in. I took off my sunglasses, and had a look around.

"Suspect has entered the building! Cover the back! Take the front door!" I ran up the stairs, and hid in front of the elevator on the first floor. They soon busted in, two of them stayed at the door, whilst one of them came upstairs. I ran out and beat the crap out of the first one, and kept running upstairs, looking for something to arm me. The other two threw a tear gas grenade each, and said

"Suspect on second floor. First floor clear."

I came to a halt as there were some wooden boards with a rock up higher, looking unstable. I sidestepped across half of the board, and looked up. Suddenly, the rock fell!

"Oh crap!" I jumped across to the other side. The boards fell back to the first floor.

"Phew!" I opened up an orange door, and opened some cupboards. One of them contained pills, while the other contained

"Yes! A gun." A Vector R-35. I continued upstairs, and looked up. Some railing, and a box.

"Hmm…" I pulled the box to jump over to the railing. I pulled up, and vaulted over it. I busted in the fourth floor door, and it soon filled with tear gas. I picked up a key, and opened the door to get to the rooftops.
