Legacy: Razor Series (4)

Friend and Foe

I stare out at the masses of people living up under the bridge, surprised this had been achived. I would have bet money that the government would have gotten the information out of him one way or another. The doom is huge with balconies above one center room, almost like a prison. Josh walks down the stairs towards the masses of people. I follow him down still in shock at what he had created. I feel a sharp pain in the back of my head. I rub it and it goes away. I don't give it any more thought.

"What is this place?" I ask him and he talks still looking forward and talking.

"It was built to be a prison after they shut down Alcatraz, but was never finished. I found it and got people to shelter here till we fix the government problem Andrew started." he answers and my head hurts again. I rub and it goes away. I get a strange feeling like everything is shifting slowly, but then I regain my head.

"Andrew caused it?" I say and he brings me to a room that seems to be his. He takes off the bandana and sets it down showing his face to me for the first time.

"Two years ago, Andrew crashed a plane into a building in the San Francisco sky line. The plane and through the building and crashed in the streets below, killing many people. The government saw this as a threat and told all Metas after Andrew had finished off Sentinel to go into hiding. We don't need to be extinct but just unheard from." He tells me and I'm surprised by what had happened. I trusted Andrew. I start to feel angry.

"How can I help?" I ask not showing any emotion towards the story. I don't know why I would trust Josh either. He killed my mother. I want revenge on him. But I want to help his cause.

"I'm glad you asked." he says and stands up. He walks over, grabs a gun and hands it do me. I hold it used to the weight already. I hold it up and look down the sight. It's just like the one I used with Andrew.

"What this for?" I ask and he stares at me.

"I need you to send them a message." He says and I point the gun at him.

"Tell me why I shouldn't do this instead." I say and he doesn't seemed surprised that I would try this.

"Because of you do then all of this," he says motioning to the city of Metas to my right, "Will die with me." He says and I keep my eyes on him. I need to gain his trust if I really want to hurt him. I put the gun down and start to walk out the door. "Wait." He says.

"What?" I ask, already anoyyed by my task.

"Ask him how he already knows you." he says and I turn and walk out the door. That is a question I've been curious about before. He stayed John Kelly showed him me, but it seemed more than that. I walk out the door and take a small black Chevy parked next to the cop car.

I race into the city, my hands shaking thinking about what I need to do. I find the warehouse and park in front of it. It's night now. The street light shines into my side of the car. I take a deep breath and get out. I walk in pulling out the concealed gun and walk through the door quietly. I walk over to their computers and plug in the flash drive. I see it start to erase all their intel The Asset and who he might be.

I turn and see them all asleep on the floor from staying up searching for me. I feel like they got the message after the car flip. I hold up the gun and shoot off a round. They quickly get up and I reload the gun. I point it at Andrew who was the first to find the source of the shot. He stops and stares at me with surprise.

"Grant?!" he says surprised which surprised me. Its only been a night.

"How did you know who I was before you met me?" I ask him and he still looks at me with huge eyes. He retracts his glad and starts to walk forward, but stops when I cock the gun.

"I told you John Kelly showed you to me." He says and I get angry.

"Stop lying!" I yell and everyone else shows up and sees what is happening. He stares at me, sweating. I can tell he knows what I'm talking about. Finally he spoke.

"When we attacked John Kelly to end Sentinel, you were flying a plane. Working for him. He brain washed you." He says. For some reason he continues to look over my shoulder and not at me.

"What are you looking at?" I ask him more annoyed then angry.

"The guy that came in with you." he says confused that I'm mad. I look behind me and I don't see anyone. I shake the gun with rage.

"What the hell are you talking about!?" I yell. He does t answer so shoot the computer and towards them, intentionally missing to make my escape. I run out the door and into the car.

I punch the gas and head back to the base. My head starts to hurt more than anything. I grab my head and swerve off the road. I yell and wake up in a dark, concrete room. I look around and I see one door, the same door that was for the Meta sanctuary. I feel something holding my head. I wip my hand back and grab another hand. He looks surprised that I did that. I pick him up and pin him on the wall.

"Who are you!?" I yell. "Where am I!?" I yells and he turns his face away in fear. He hold up a key and I grab it. I put him down and he looks at the corner in fear. I walk over to the door and open it. The light stings my eyes and I walk into the streets of San Francisco. I walk down the street and I can see the warehouse. I try to run but the wound him my leg seems to have gotten bigger.

I limo from the pain towards the warehouse. I make it there and practically fall in the door. I see everyone at computers and I'm happy to see them. I start to walk towards them and find out they don't feel the same. They all pull out there weapons. I put up my hands and try to say something but I can't. My vision goes blurry and I fall to the ground.
