Dark Wall Ch. 10

Marcus Till sat in front of his finest commanders, surrounded by his closest guards, ADV.T-Cops. ADV.T-Cops were advanced T-Cops, even more genetically enhanced, almost robotic. They were created specifically for the soon to happen occasion, the announcement of Marcus Till's complete control over the entire world.1

Till sat there, very uneasy, like he was sitting on spikes. He was nervous, not about the take over, but about something even more upsetting. The faction is what had Marcus Till so intimidated. Someone now had the documents that Till had thought was being safely transported. "It was such a perfect and well thought out trap." he thought to himself.2

Now he, and all of the leaders of Till Inc. were pondering and contemplating there next move, and the changes they need to further make to ensure the safety of Marcus Till during this announcement. A voice broke Till's uneasy concentration.3

"Sir." Commander Carver said, "What will be done about our current roster?"4

Till looked down, breaking out of his daze. "We will leave them where they are at." Till said as he stood up. "The trick here gentlemen, is to mix in with what they do know, something they don't know. They should not know we have advanced T-Cops, and they definitely do not know the location has been changed."5

Till paced back and forth as he said this. The commanders, and the Till Inc. board of directors knew this to be true as well. They, however, noticed Marcus Till's face as he talked. He seem sure of himself, he talked with a sense of directions and distinction in his voice, but at the same time his face seemed lost, and distracted.6

"Furthermore," Till continued, "we will be reopening Sector 13, and reassigning Project Killjoy. With these ADV.T-cops, and the reassigning of our vampire experimentations, mixing the two will be the greatest creation ever. I will show the faction who has the power, and slam the right hand of god on anything that they might be planning."7

The commanders and the board of directors stood and applauded when Marcus Till finished his speech. They were pleased to see a real leader stand before them. Marcus Till sat back down, as everyone was talking and shaking hands. 8

A sense of fear fell over him. "What if they find a way?" he thought to himself. He quickly shook the thought, and instead realized that he is to powerful for them to stop. Marcus Till will become the world leader, and would stop at nothing to bring the republic peace and order.9

Morris Day hung up the phone with a slam. He was most defiantly distraught. He looked around the room, locked eyes with Dreifus, and then Kel. Cypher lit another cigarette, and as he peered through the burning smoke, he too had Morris looking at him. Obviously Morris Day was looking for some sort of reassurance or guidance, but was getting nothing.11

No one knew what to do. This man wanted to sell the key to Till's downfall to the faction. His name was Laurence
Braizer, but went by a few other names as well. Laurence Braizer is the man to go to if you need something, something that is normally hard to come by. 12

If you need money, weapons, information, or even needed an assassin, you go to this hidden man. He was even harder to get to then Marcus Till himself. No one ever saw his face, or new his real voice. To Morris Day, however, this man is being known as Max, just Max. 13

"How much?" asked Driefus, as he sat up. Cypher turned to the right, lighting another cigarette.14

Morris looked down at the floor, "5,000,000 dollars, and not a penny less."15

Kel jumped up with a shock, "We don't have that kind of money!"16

"I know." Morris replied, "We must think of another way."17

The female vampire jumped backwards as Victor stared, her blonde hair flowed in the wind. She kept her knife in her hand and her sword drawn. She and Victor walked in unison, in a circle, following each others movement.19

"what are you staring at!" She snapped.20

"You don't know who your father is, do you?" Victor asked.21

She paused, with a shocked look on her face. "Wh.. What did you say?" she tried to get out.22

"You don't really know who you are or why you are here, you just know that you are good at what you do, and you keep doing it because its really the only purpose you know of right now. You dont know your parents, and you don't know how you were created." Victor stood still and lowered his guard. "You just know that you are stronger, and faster than most, and you have an urge for blood that just can never be satisfied."23

"What the hell! How do you know all this?" she demanded as she lunged for him, again their swords clashed and locked together.24

"Because," Victor said calmly without struggle, " I know who you are. You are me, we are exactly alike, and are meant to be with each other. We are complete."25

"How do you know this?" She asked, jumping back once more.26

"When I looked into your eyes, I felt something that I have never felt before. A sense of reassurance, like everything will be okay. I felt complete, I could die right now and not feel alone."27

Now for a hardened killer to say something like that, there must be something there. Victor stood there, completely vulnerable, and she noticed it too. However, as much as she wanted to strike him down for his foolish words, she could not move. Could it be, did what he say make sense to her.28

It most certainly caught her off guard, but why could she not kill him now? why could she not even move? She was supposed to have killed him, it was her job. Victor stared through her front, and saw that she was feeling the same. 29

She was frozen, but with fear, fear of what could be. She could not kill him because they are the same, she is complete. Victor walked closer to her, and as he did she
raised up her hand to stab him. He caught her hand, and her attention. As he held her hand, the knife somehow was
released, and fell to the ground. 30

Victor moved in and without hesitation, he kissed her. Victor kissed with everything his cold heart could produce. With all his might he put so much passion within that kiss, he could barely handle it himself. She pushed him back, and looked into his eyes. She new he was right, they were complete. 31

This wonderful moment was interrupted by a very odd, yet recognizable noise. Several canisters flew out of the dark and landed around them. The canisters began to hiss, followed by white gas.32

"Leoxin Gas!" Victor said as he raised his guard back up, "T-Cops! Lets get out of here!"33

Both assassins took off across the rooftop, and jumped to the next building. They started to run, and while picking
up speed, they got ready to jump to the next building, but instead were stopped in their tracks by a whirring blade. 34

A helicopter lifted up over the building they assassins were on.The assassins stood there, weapons drawn, back to back. T-Cops were in the helicopter, some were lowering down on the roof by ropes. Others were advancing from the other side. Victor looked over his shoulder. "You know, I still don't know your name" he said over the loud noise from the helicopter.35

"It's Kelly, Kelly Valentine." she said.36

"I'm Victor Angel" 37

They both turned back around to face what was coming. They T-Cops surrounded them, while two stayed in the helicopter, as it hovered above them. They were coming to an end, but at least they would not die alone.
