Johnny jumped the fence and down into the alleyway that looked as it did not have any memories of better times. He looked down the dirty alley and heard sounds of the chase and took off down the alley and to the right into another section of the alley leading to the streets. Only, the streets are above the actual ending of the alleyway, which was a dead end. At the end of the way, the shadow Johnny had been chasing was stopped dead in its tracks, trying to find a way out. Johnny walked up to this shadowy figure and pulled out his gun and aimed dead center at his target.

"Freeze! There is no where else for you to run!" Johnny yelled at the shadow. When the shadow did nothing, Johnny took a step closer with his gun still drawn. When he was about to repeat himself, he was blinded by a flash of light as bright as the sun, followed by a helicopter's propeller filling his ears. Johnny could not see a thing and only heard the sound of a man laughing.

"Better luck next time, Johnny Boy! Hahaha!" gloated the voice. When Johnny could finally see again, both the helicopter and the man were gone. Johnny lowered his gun and just looked at the spot where the figure stood moments ago and sighed. He put his gun away and started walking back to his car. When he was back in his patrol car, Johnny radioed the station.

"This is Lt. Kurtman, the suspect has gotten away and no whereabouts are known." Johnny reported to his Sgt. He closed his door and turned on his lights and drove off to meet his partner at the station. When he arrived he saw his partner talking with the Sgt. in front of the building. Johnny parked in his spot and got out to go see how everything else went. He only wish he could tell them something other than that his target got away........

Prophet was talking to the Sarge when Johnny pulled up, Prophet had heard about the target getting away because of some news helicopter trying to film the chase fucked up Prophet waved and Johnny slammed his head on the wheel looking ashamed. Prophet then turns to the Sergeant and says, "Sarge, I got a lead on this whole thing! Don't take us off the case, I know we can pull this off."

"What about that incident?"

"That? Johnny can hardly be blamed for that! It was a fuck up at the news agency"

"The perp still got away?"

"Look we can pull this shit off, got a tip he's hiding with a high profile member of this gang in his mountain retreat! We can get him and take him back alive!"

"That's a fortress! Armed guards, security cameras! Not to mention guard dogs."

"One shot that's all I'm asking..." The sarge sighed and looked up at the sky, he though about it for longer then Prophet thought, Prophet was starting to get a little worried. "Alright Henry but if you don't pull this off, and make this police force look like a joke... I will be able to legally put foot to ass..." Prophet nodded, "Your ass Henry! Now get out of here!"

"That's a yes?", The sergeant nodded, Prophet then started to laugh and he picked up the sergeant with a huge hug. He then ran to the car just as Johnny was getting out, "Get your ass back in the car, we can still catch this guy! He's hiding with one of the high profile members of the Irish Mob." Prophet said.

"We're still on the case?" Prophet nodded and told Johnny to get back in the car. Johnny started the car and they sped off (to the sergeants dislike) for Redhill the richest part of town. They pulled up a fair way back so they wouldn't be spotted. "This better work Hen..." Johnny said before Prophet interrupted, "What did I say before?", Johnny sighed and said, "This better work Prophet." "Right let's go!".

So the two slowly moved towards the house when Johnny grabbed Prophet and pulled him back, "What is it Johnny?", Prophet said...

"Shhhh..." Johnny whispered blocking his partner from view of anyone outside. He looked around and grabbed his shotgun. "Look, there are snipers in the ghillies..." he said pointing to the tall grassy knoll off in the distance. The two officers were hidden from view atm but the snipers are aware of movement. Right then and there Johnny's war instincts were starting to kick back in. Ever since the war, his will to survive would jump outstandingly in the moment of pre-forming battle. Johnny looked around some more and looked at Prophet and told him to follow slowly behind him...

He started moving around the house out of view of the knoll but there was a fence with guard dogs at the other end of the back yard so he quickly moved back to position.

"Shit. What are we going to do Prophet? If we go into the line of sight those snipers will drop us on sight, if we go around those dogs will reveal us, if we sit here the guards will come back, find us and kill us... Were fucked!" Johnny said a little to loud and one of the dogs heard him barking at them without seeing them. Johnny looked at the knoll and saw ghillie suited men moving into position, new ones joining the rank, with better night vision scopes... The lights turned on in the house one by one slowly and Johnny and Prophet both knew they were fucked!

Fulmineo regretted taking this job as a sniper. He'd forgotten how boring it was. Hours on end just staring at one spot. At least it was boring...until he spotted movement in the tall grass. It wasn't the summer breeze.

" Mission control this is sniper 1 we have a problem"

"What the hell is this mission control crap? Just start speaking idiot."

" Whatever anyway send in the snipers with the nightscope. We've got a problem."

" Allright but we hired you to lead this sniper team not to run at the first sign of danger so im sending them out with  an extra pair for you."

" Whatever you pricks. Just come out here with the scopes."

Prophet saw a support group and pointed it out to Johnny, "Alright we take em' out and steal their uniforms and then walk right in!" Johnny said. Prophet nodded telling him to lower his voice, Johnny was getting a little carried away with the whole plan Prophet then whispered to Johnny, "Calm down mate, this isn't a war..." Johnny agreed and they slowly went prone and crawled on their hands nearing the two men who were to support the sniper. Prophet smiled as he grabbed one and plunged a knife into his throat stopping him from screaming, Johnny grabbed the other one in almost perfect synchronization, but he garroted the man, "An old trick you learnt in London?" Prophet asked. Johnny just smiled and put the uniform on, the two then walked up the hill to the sniper Prophet holding his gun at the ready, Johnny a little bit more calm.

Johnny pushed Prophets gun down so that he wouldn't tip off the snipers. When they approached them, one of them hidden by their ghillie suits aimed at Johnny.

"What are you mad damn it?!" said the sniper crouching to show his body well hidden. "Get back in position recruits or get a visit to the boss!"

Johnny's eyes widened at the statement and nodded his head and looked at his partner and nodded to let him know were going back. Halfway back to the spot where they killed the snipers Johnny aimed his gun into the air and fired! BANG! The shot deafened Johnny and Prophet and rang out through the air. The snipers on the hill didn't move an inch in fact, Johnny did not know if they were still there anymore. Then, two guards grabbed Johnny and two more grabbed Prophet.

"You two are going to see the boss!" said the blonde one holding onto Johnny's left arm and then he and the others dragged Johnny and Prophets asses into the back yard and into the house. Johnny knew everything was going to plan so far! He looked over to his partner and winked letting him know it's all okay.

Prophet struggled until Johnny gave him a wink letting him know it was fine... "Fine for you maybe" he mumbled under his breath, They were taken into the house through the large iron gate. It wasn't long before they were thrown to the ground at the bosses feet, the boss motioned for the guards to get back to duty. And as the door shut Prophet counted down the seconds until he jumped and put the boss in a head lock wrapping a cloth found on the table around his mouth stopping him from yelling for help.

"Alright, we know you don't want to die..." The boss stared at Johnny with a blank expression, an impressive display to Prophet as Prophet had a gun held to his forehead. "We just want the room where, your boy... um..." Johnny snapped his fingers several times before Prophet said, "Frankie..." Johnny then nodded and looked at the boss, "My partner here. He'll shoot your pathetic ass if you don't co-operate!" 

The boss had started to sweat, Prophet had brought him a pen and paper and told him to write, and fast! He wrote down, 'Third room on the left. Take the bastard quietly he's married to my sister..." Prophet laughed and knocked out the boss cold, the THUD! was louder then expected and Prophet was worried that it would alert the guards, Prophet then said to Johnny, "Alright Johnny boy, take the lead." Johnny nodded...

Johnny nodded and pulled his silenced gun out and shot the boss in the head and two guards busted in the room and he shot them too. They ran to the third floor silently and undetected and found the room. Johnny opened it and looked in and saw a black box with a red light, green wires coming from it and making a loud beeping...LOUD BEEPING???!!! Johnny grabbed Phrophet and jumped onto the railing and slid down to the second floor then the first. He waited for Prophet to come down too as the room exploded! Johnny had fallen to the floor covered in ash and ruins and surrounded by dust. He finally got his sight back and started digging for his partner!

"Prophet! Prophet! Where are you buddy??" Johnny said worridly as he dug through the dust and ash looking for his partner.

" Hey idiot! This is 'mission control' the Bossman wants to see you."

" Why?" Fulmineo asks?

"Probably to speak to you about your failure to kill those geniuses we captured."

" Oh then its cool"

"No your dead this time."

" Whatever idiot." Fulmineo heads towards the Big House. Where the boss was quartered. As he got closer he heard an explosion.

" Damn now I got to do some more work." Fulmineo slings his sniper rifle on his back and grabs his pistols and he heads inside 

Prophet coughs, the dust covered him like a blanket of snow in winter. He slowly got to his feet, Prophet never made it down to the second floor, blood seeped from his arm, "Shit... That's going to leave a mark." Prophet joked, he then coughed and spluttered. A lot of dust clung to his throat making it hard for him to breath, he walked for the stairs... but he kept walking up and down the corridor that remained after the blast, he coughed, "Fuck, how do I get to Johnny now?". Prophet then heard a feint noise, "Prophet! Prophet! Where are ya buddy?".

After the ringing stopped, he could hear clearly, the noise was coming from below him. Johnny was looking for him, "Jo..." Prophet said before he spotted the sniper on the hill walking right behind Johnny, Prophet hit the floor, but the cracks made by the explosion to the floor made the floor weak and Prophet fell right through. He had landed on the sniper, who he had subdued for the moment he then grabbed Johnny and ran as fast as he could, the cat and mouse game now began, they failed their mission but they might get out alive, the two then ran off down the corridors looking for a place to hide, but little did Prophet know that he had left a trail of blood for the sniper to follow...

Johnny pulls his gun back out and looks around the corner and sees the sniper brushing himself off. He notices the sniper started looking around and Johnny dipped back before he saw him. Johnny looked over to his partner and whispered, "So, how we gonna get out of this one?" Johnny asks looking around for an exit. Then he saw something that caught his eye. It was a old wooden window, as if this building was built in the old west times. Johnny nudged Prophet and pointed at the window.

"Were getting out of here but its a sprint. The sniper WILL know where we are but if we can move fast enough we will be gone before he can get us." Johnny said looking around the corner and back to Prophet. Prophet was getting puzzled and asked if there was another way.

"Isn't there another way Johnny?" Prophet asked before Johnny started counting to three slowly. "1...2...3...NOPE!CMON!" Johnny yelled grabbing Prophet by the arm and kicking the window open and jumping out. "Cmon Prophet!" he said looking at the sniper who was looking at the hall entrance.

Prophet followed Johnny trying to keep up, but he'd lost a lot of blood he was close to feinting. Prophet had almost stopped when a bullet came flying past and hit the tree right next to him, like a lion excited for the hunt a massive dose of adrenaline kicked in and Prophet started to sprint for his life.

"Johnny, where do we go?"

"To the car?"

"Yeah but the car's down the hill!"

"And?"

"We're running in the wrong direction!"

A bullet then came whizzing past Johnny's head, "Shit! What do we do th...." Johnny said before Prophet fell over, Johnny tried to pick Prophet back up; but Prophet told him to scatter, Johnny nodded and said that Prophet had been a great partner over the years, "Oh get outta here you sop." Prophet said jokingly with a smirk. The last thing Prophet saw was Johnny running into the thick bush, and then nothing... Prophet was then knocked out by the sniper, Prophet was lucky the sniper had shown mercy. Prophet then lay there waiting to be found by a random pass byer in hope of rescue. 

"Johnny! Where's Prophet?" Crow asked as he came running from further in the woods.

"I don't know! He collapsed and told me to keep goin'!" Johnny said while trying to recover his breath.

"I'm gonna go find him!" Crow said starting for the opening of the woods.

"You can't!"

"And why the hell not?"

"Because there's a goddam sniper bac-"

"A what?!" Crow exclaimed.

"Shut the hell up for two minutes!" Johnny said. "Were gonna find him don't worry about that but right now we gotta get the hell outta here or we'll be as useful as a pile of shit!" Johnny yelled.

Crow nods. "Alright then, what's the plan?

Fulmineo was pissed all this narrowing missing shit was messing with his score. How could he face his fellow snipers now? Oh well I'll find a way. Fulmineo spots a target running around. "Looks Like a crow" He took the shot.

BANG! Right in the kneecap. The crow looking fellow went down like a sack of bricks. Fulmineo gets up and head to where he first noticed the intruders. "They probably have some type of car at the bottom of the hill. Fulmineo lays down and sets up his rifle and looks through the scope.

Johnny was looking at Crow about to say the plan until he was shot in the knee!

"Crow!" Johnny screamed grabbing hold of him and looking at where the shot came. It was the sniper! Shit! Johnny picked crow up and put him on his shoulders and ran as fast as he could away from the scene. He pretended he was back in the beaches of Normandy, when him and squad 12 stormed the german's main defense for the attack on Berlin later on. He was so scared that day, the mortars dropping and hitting every direction, planes flying so low he went deaf each time he saw one, and heavy machine guns firing in the crowds of our soldiers. It was a day to remember not by the troops, but by all of the Americans alive that day. He had closed his eyes jumped out of the amphibious vehicle, and ran for his life not caring if he was to die... They were victorious that day, and when Johnny snapped back to, he was back to his patrol car. "Phew..." he said opening the door when a sniper shot came ringing to the door closing it just barely missing him. It was a warning shot. Like he was told in the battle for Peleliu, "Watch out, a sniper will let you know hes watching you before he kills you sometimes, if so, figure out by the warning shot where he was..." he remembered his Corporal telling him that. He traced the shot back to the hill where he saw his hit man sniper sitting, watching through the scope and Johnny quickly went behind the car.

He saw the man go behind his car. He also thought that that wasn't that smart. After all whats to stop him from shooting the Gas tank and taking him out like that? But Fulmineo kinda liked these guys. I mean they did have the balls to raid such a heavily Guarded compund by themselves. Ful grabbed his radio and said...."Yea...imma need me some reinforcements." 

"Were not able to do that right now. Our whole system is a bungle..the boss is dead and we cant figure shit out."

"He's dead? Well then Fck you....I only took this job because I owed him a favor" ( Ful had slept with one of the Boss's mistresses and the  Boss et him Live) 

" Hey if you don't complete the task then you know what will happen? we'll hunt you down like the dog you are!!"

" Its a free country...your welcome to come and try."

Ful pulled out his radio and switched the frequency..." hey you down there by the car...yea...i know i have your frequency...wierd...anyways I've decided not to kill you so im coming down and leaving with you....stick your head out and nod if you will not try to kill me

Johnny waited there with Crow as he was knocked out cold from the hit to his knee. He started to hear a sound, liked muffled voice of someone talking from a radio. He remembered his police radio in his car. He he opened the door and listened to the sniper talk and thanked god. Johnny grabbed his radio and replied, "I won't show myself, because I do not trust you. Go back and help my partner Prophet back in the woods and bring him back to the car then I'll let you know if I trust you or not..." Johnny said over the radio and let go of the button. He looked around the car and saw the sniper but not what he was doing... He then looked back to Crow and tried to work on his knee to stop the bleeding. It looks like the shin was disconnected from the thigh at the knee.

Fulmineo sighs.....where has the trust gone? I remember a time when A sniper can say "hey i wont kill you no more lets be friends" and he'd be trusted. Fulmineo shakes his head. He heads in the direction of where he saw that mans friend laydown. The man was unconscious. Ful picked the man up and slung him over his back and walk towards the base of the hill. As he  did so a bulet slammed into a tree in front of him. 

" You shameless bastards. I taught you how to use those toys of yours." Fulmineo opts not to get in a full on gun fight and runs quickly to the car. when he gets there he see the two men. One injured and one scared.

" nOT TO RUSH YOU OR ANYTHING BUT SOME ETREMELY PISSED OFF GOONS are headed this way. Could we get a move on?"

(srry bout the weird capitalization)

(Its okay)

Johnny gets his serious face on and nods opening the back door putting Crow and Prophet in the back ducked down. He felt like he was getting ready to dump some bodies in the lake. Johnny did the dukes of hazzard stunt and slid across the hood of the car and got in. When the sniper got in and we were good Johnny slammed the gas and hit a goon on the way out of the gate. He turned his lights on and immediately headed for the hospital.

"So, whats your name?" Johnny asked after a little of driving through traffic.

" Fulmineo. I was coerced into working for the boss. So when I heard he was dead......well you know the rest."

" Yea I know how it goes."

"Well anyway... when we are suitably far enough away, then we have to drop the wounded off,With security of course, and get the hell out of Dodge. That Boss Yea well he was only the equivalent of a mid-level officer in a Legit company in a much larger group who are way more powerful. His death will piss them off. As long as we are in the U.s. we will be able to get taken out easily. They have assassins every where so we must leave ASAP. Any suggestions?"
