Well hello everyone! I made this chapter long so i'm very proud of myself, he he he! Please review! Luv ya all! he he he! ;P


'This isn't a tomb,' I stated looking at the picture.

'I know... put it's where it should be,' Alistair explained.

'Lara, don't even try...' Bryce already began.

'Why not?' I asked.

'Lara... it's a museum,' Bryce said with wide shocked eyes.

'The museum stole it from me,' I said.

'This is going to go all wrong,' Bryce muttered.

'Lara... there is high tec security and gaurds at every corner,' Alistair explained.

'I've dealt with that before,' i sighed checking my gun zapper. I don't want to kill the guards, just shock them for a while.

'Fine... lets see you get it. The alarm will go off and guards will run in, what do you do now?' asked Alistair.

'Alistair, I'll be fine,' I turned around to him once I finished putting darts into my sleeper.

It was two o'clock in the morning. I walked to the back entrance of the building but it was locked. I waited for the camera to pass and then started to climb up the building. It wasn't that hard. I reached the 3rd floor balcony before the camera turned back. I opened the door and walked slowly into it. I heard Alistair talk in the my ear phone.

'Right, now take a left but watch there are lasers,' he said. I quietly walked through the next hall to see dozens of laser.

'Are these explosive?' I asked.

'Lara? This is a museum,' Alistair muttered

'Just checking...' I sighed. I looked at each one and then walked back a bit. I took a run in, jumping and sliding overr sevral, cartwheeling the last three and then flipped over the last one. I made a bow and i heard Alistair and Bryce chuckle. I started to walk swloly forward, taking out my shocker. I attached a silenter quickly and shot two gaurds gaurding a large door. I took their security cards and went to the door. I put the card through the machine and the door opened. I walked in with gun in hand... more lasers. I couldn't get through these though so I climbed up onto the wall to the vent and climbed into it. I crawled my way around int until I reached the other side of the room and dropped down.

'There it is, Lara,' Bryce exclaimed. I saw a small spear that was glass tipped. The glass case was around it. I walked over beside it and took down the alarms with the security pass. I opened the case and took it out. I shone brigthly before fading again. I heard some noise, shootings.

'Damn someone is there too! Get out of there Lara!' Alistair exclaimed. I quickly put into my backpack and started to climb back the vent. I went the other way, going down and then to the right. I landed in another museum part. I was on the guard. I shot two non-guard people and took their machine gun ammo. I crept passed them down the stairs, shooting one more. I was on the second floor with a mysterious figure walked behind me, wearing a white mask. I started to shoot it, but he dodged no problem... He had a gun but didn't shoot. I ran as fast asi could to the other roomwith him hot on his heels. I jumped through the window, spreading my arms out as i fall into the water. I rise up from below and splash myself out. I look back to see him gettng out of the water as well. I start to shoot at him once but he manages to to dodge and get closer. I get rid of the gund because they are out of ammo and run as fast as i could across the grass. He was gaining up on me. I knew I couldn't outrun him so I stopped and truned around. He has stopped too and looked at me. I saw clear blue eyes though the mask. I went for the attack first keciking him into the head. He ducked catching the leg. I twisted around kicking his face with my other leg, sending both of us onto our backs. I got up over the pain and gathered my fists. I go for a hit into the stmach that he dodges but i kick back, hitting his face making the mask fly off. I look around to see who it is and gasp...

'Long time no see Lara,' he said in his deep voice.

'Your not alive... your dead,' I muttered.

'Then what am I doing here?' he asked.

'Your a nephilm, your Karel,' I grab his hand in a flash of lightning and look at the palm of his hand. There was no mark. I stumbled back, falling on my bum.

'Your alive,' I gasped again. He offered me his hand.

'You doubted?' he put on his crooked smile. I took it slowly and he pulled me.

'What are you doing here?' I asked.

'I actually was here on business but unfortunatly, someone got the item before me,' he said.

'What item?' I asked, obviously knowing.

'The Hand of God,' he explained.

'Why do you need it?' I asked, walking a bit away from him.

'So you know about it?' his smiled returned.

'Maybe,' I managed to say. He chuckled at it. I wanted to run.

'How did you... surviv... Kurtis,' his name got stuck in my throat and it sounded all wrong.

'I survived, big deal. She just made a huge whole inside of me and i survived and hey, where were you?' he asked.

'I killed the Nephilm...' i managed to say.

'You didn't look for me afterwards?' he asked.

'Yes I didn't see your body, just the pool of blood,' I explained.

'Yeah... what about my disk?' he asked.

'I have it at home,' I said.

'You kept it safe?' he smiled.

'I have to admit I serached for you for the first five months but gave up... I though you were dead,' I sighed.

'Me? Die?' he joked. I smiled lightly.

'So, do you have the other Hand?' he asked.

'Yes,' I muttered. I was ready for a fight.

'I'll help find the rest,' he said.

'Why are you helping me?' I asked.

'No no no... you are helping me,' he smiled.

'I'm working for somebody on this,' I muttered.

'Me too, a guy has to live,' he explained.

'Well I do this job for sport,' I told him.

'Who are you working for?' he asked.

'A russian woman,' I stated.

'Maria Rybalchenko?' he asked.

'Yes... you work for her too?' i asked.

'Yes, so I guess we are stuck as partners,' he said.

'I'll agree to it if you have a ride back,' I smiled sheepishly at him.

'As a matter of fact I do,' he winked at me. I can't belive he's alive... Kurtis Trent.
