Report #116 2014, August 26th.
I said goodbye to my mother and father, said goodbye to my wife and daughter and now I said goodbye to a man who stuck by my side from the beginning of this journey, up until his demise.
Twitch, who's real name will remain hidden.
I picked him up as he was running away from IT. He was the first person, who didn't judge me for what I did, every time we talked, the time when I thought that I was a monster, he knew that I wasn't, he saw deeper, he saw something, I could never see. And even though we didn't have the friendliest relationship, we still came to each others aid, no matter what.
The only thing that was driving him to survive, was the hope, that maybe, some day, he will get the chance to talk to his wife and child again. He never told her what was going on, he never said goodbye to her, he packed his things and immediately got out of there and met me. Today, hopefully, I fulfilled his dying wish.
Don't bother trying to find his wife, or child. Twitch was an excellent hacker, he wiped all the connections he could have had to them, changed his name countless amount of times, etc. To top it off, I told his wife to stop looking for him, it's impossible to track them now.
Goodbye old Friend, I promise, I'll make it work, your death won't be a waste.

Second Assassin
Report #115 2014, August 16th (Mendella Posting).
We've been laying low, everything is still hot here in Russia, even outside of Moscow.
We were slowly, but surely getting out of Russia, but before leaving, Incognito wanted to visit his family one more time. It wasn't smart to do so, while we were in the middle of all this, however, human emotions get the better of everyone, I guess.
He told me to keep an eye on our vehicle, while he went into the graveyard and talked to his family one last time.
Few minutes later, I hear gun shots, several of them, I start dashing toward the direction where he went, it wasn't hard following the muzzle flash in the middle of the night, the problem was that it was far away. Once I get to the spot, I see Incognito on his knees, a dart in the back of his neck, made the assumption that someone sniper shot him with Botox, nasty stuff, paralyzes you in seconds. He was sitting right next to a dug out hole in the ground, right next to his family's graves. Several guys with AK's (A few dead on the ground) surrounding him, but they do not kill him, waiting for something? Didn't care, it was clear that they were going to bury him right next to his family.
There was a good dozen of them with their AK's and me with only a forty-five, idiot. One of a kind. First things first, had to get Incognito out of the line of fire, it was time to make some noise. Shot one of their men between the eyes, jumped back into my cover (Which was a tombstone), they start shooting in my direction. Full auto, lots of it. Ammo to burn and not afraid of making noise, spells amateur. But I was still out-gunned, and I was still up the creek, so I needed to get in amongst them, fast. I retreat further, they shoot at me, while running after me (Stupid), once I distance myself and them away from Incognito, I take cover behind another tombstone and throw a grenade at them (I always carry one). It blows up, takes out a good bit of them, while they are scattered, I run back to where Incognito was, they left two guys to guard him, two guys I can take. Shoot one in the head, the other one in the chest, before he can raise his AK, after that I kick Incognito into the newly dug out grave, no time to be gentle.
The group hat chased me, must have heard the gun shots and came back to where Incognito was. I hid behind a tombstone, didn't have time to grab one of the AK's, had to do it the "Silence and Speed" way. I take a deep breath and prepare for what's going to happen next, sneak up behind one of them, twist his neck in an instant, to my disappointment, he has a shotgun, life wasn't meant to be perfect, leave him, hide again, wait for another prey. And then, just my luck, a guy with an AK stumbles near my Tombstone, sneak up on him, grab his from behind and cover his mouth, can't snap his neck, since that will require both of my hands and if I let go of his mouth, he will scream. Had to take a chance, smashed his head against a Tombstone, he didn't yell, however, he fired a random shot out of his AK.
Don't care, have my AK, they are about to shoot at me, I shoot first, double taps. Can't drop a man with a couple of rounds, you're in the wrong profession. Let them be the ones to waste their bullets, get pulled off target by the recoil, mark themselves with muzzle flash. Aim, shoot, switch, repeat. Soon enough, fire stops, I'm the only one standing, that's when I let my guard down, I feel sudden pain surge through my neck and then I don't feel anything, I fall flat on my face, can't move, can't talk, only hear and see.
"Burns doesn't it? It's Botox. Can you believe that people actually pay, to have that stuff, a paralyzing drug, injected in their faces. It's a crazy world man, a world where a family can be murdered and the murderer will walk free."
The man got in front of me, with a knife in his hand, blond hair, black trench coat, red scarf, pretty tall, don't know who he is, don't care, just like he doesn't care about me.
"I have no problems with you Justice, I have a problem with your friend, the family murderer, however, can't afford to have you running around getting in my way."
He put his knife to my throat, he was about to kill me and then, he suddenly draws his knife into a different direction and he manages to catch Incognito in mid air, stabbing him into his shoulder. No idea how Incognito managed to be able to move so quickly, probably that Azoth inside of him. Incognito head butts him in the nose, making this guy stumble back, holding his nose. Incognito then kicks him in the jaw, which makes the guy fall down. Incognito picks my 45 up and is about to shoot him, however, he didn't know that my 45 ran out of ammo, couldn't tel him before hand because I was paralyzed.
The freak laughs and says:
"I have a gun too."
After which, he throws it at Incognito's head pretty hard. This idiot is using unpredictability to his advantage, they were both at a stand off, then the idiot throws a side kick, Incognit blocks it with his arm, while Incognito's arm is occupied, the idiot chops him in the neck. Incognito immediately grabs his throat, while hitting the idiot with his other hand, the idiot falls down, but he doesn't just stay there, he sweeps Incognito's feet, making him fall down as well. The idiot was about to stomp Incognito's face in, but Incognito grabbed his foot and twisted it, so the idiot falls down, hitting his jaw against the ground, Incognito grabs him by the back of his head and slams his face against the ground. The idiot is trying to reach for his knife, but Incognito grabs him from behind, putting him in a head lock, about to choke him.
That's when another shot is fired into the air, everyone stops moving. That woman again, the one who seeks revenge on Incognito.
"Let my brother go, or I empty a magazine into your skull."
"You will do so anyway, since you're seeking revenge."
"Unlike you, Kisin, I have some dignity, you spared my life once, I'm returning the favor."
A minute of silence and then Incognito lets him go, the guy rushes towards his sister, they start arguing between each other, amongst the argument, they drop their names. The guy's name is Xander and the woman's name is Cassia, or it's their nicknames, I don't know. In any way, Incognito picked me up and we drove off.
Good news is, we're finally out of Russia.

Keep Moving
Report #114 2014, July 30th.
Shortly after the package deliverers left, me and Mendella started packing and moving, the location was compromised, had to find a new one. Mendella found a small apartment in some sort of random motel, it was a good feeling to be able to move your muscles again, God knows, I hate spending an entire day flat on my back. Mendella was patrolling outside, keeping an open eye, apparently, not good enough of an eye, since someone did manage to slip by, but to be honest, she was disguised as one of the neighbors, walking around in a robe and shit.
The lock on our room comes off with a bang, the door is kicked open to reveal this woman, dressed in a vest, with an M-16 in her hand, obviously she didn't come to do room service. Since reaching for my gun would have too long, I used my shooting spring knife and shot the blade at her, she ducked avoiding contact, wasn't trying to hit her, was trying to distract her, I immediately rushed her while she was distracted by the knife, taking her down by the throat with my left arm. Sadly for me, my own knife was on the floor nearby, she took it and jammed it into my right shoulder. Then she kicked me, the kick was so strong it sent me stumbling back and crashing my right elbow through the window.
Catching my breath, she was now charging me, trying to nail me with a spin, side kick to the head, she was athletic, too bad I'm a tank, he side of my body took the abuse as I caught her leg, threw her on the floor, giving me enough time to reach my gun on the nearby table. Sadly for me, she was packing as well, and she was already on her feet, aiming at me, we exchanged fire, she was constantly retreating, while I was advancing, up to the point when I back her into a corner, against the door of the bathroom, at that point my gun ran out of bullets, had to reload, didn't have the time to do that, since I had no idea if she had to reload, kicked her through the door, grabbed her by the neck and smashed her head against the wall over the bath tub, had no time to finish her off with my own hands, good thing I always keep a grenade under my sink, lobbed the grenade in the bath tub where she was struggling to get up, ran out, closed the door, was about the get away from the door as far as possible, didn't take into consideration that she could recover quickly, which she did, she opened the door and threw the grenade to me.
Had to leap for it, remember my feet feeling the burn through the boots, had no idea where I was at that point in time, tried to get up, through my blurry vision I see her standing over the hole in the apartment, which was leading into an apartment below mine, I guess she was examining the rubble, here was my chance, charged her, pushed her down with me, made her take the majority of the impact against the ground, piked her up and smacked her against the wall, was going to ask who she was, but she bit my nose, loosened my grip, kicked me in gut with her knee, made me let go of her completely and stumble back. She had her gun ready, already aiming at me, had to run towards the bedroom inside the apartment for cover, she was running and gunning after me, it was apparent that she was an amateur with guns, got through the door inside the room, she was approaching fast, closed the door in her face, she started shooting through the door, didn't care, I retreated through the window in the room, to the fire escape, went up the fire escape, got through a window, which I left open on purpose, hid behind the wall.
Could hear her foot steps coming up the fire escape, once she got her left leg through the window, I closed the window, jamming her leg in and to avoid he trying to shoot me through the window, I put a slug in her leg, she yelled in pain, while she was distracted by the pain, I opened the window, grabbed her by the neck and put her down against the floor, delivering a few punches to her face, just enough to make her go unconscious.
I heard another set of footsteps running up the fire escape, I was ready to shoot, however stopped when I saw that it was Mendella, following our trail of chaos. Don't blame him for taking too long, he had to run from the rooftop, all the way to our apartment, jump down the hole in our apartment and figure out that we went up the fire escape, it was foolish of me not to figure out that there could be an internal attack, my fault, getting sloppy. In any way, he picked her up, we got back to our apartment, he patched me up as much as he could in a time span of 5 minutes, then went off packing our stuff, we had to move, however, I wasn't leaving without some answers, that's why we tied her up to the chair inside, to talk.
"Who hired you?"
"Why am I still alive?"
"Who hired you?"
"Not going to happen."
"Last time, who hired you?" followed by her spitting in my face.
"We can do this all night Kisin, I'm paid not to talk."
"Tell me and I'll take you to a hospital."
"Or maybe, I sit here quietly and bleed to death. We know pain better than most, no? The loss of family, the loss of love, the unquenchable thirst to right the wrong that were done to us."
"You don't know me."
"But I do, perhaps better than you know yourself, we are killers."
"You kill for money, that makes us different."
"Money is a necessary evil, killing is not. I could care less for my employer, I am here because I wanted to be the one to kill you."
"Looks like you failed."
"You think you're doing good, by playing the role of judge, jury and executioner? You killed my father, who was doing a job for Dimir, he needed the money to save our mother from a disease that was eating her up! In result, I lost both of them! You think you're doing good? Every action has an opposite equal reaction, every person you kill, a new one takes their place: stronger, faster, younger. You're not helping anyone, you're only polluting this world with more killers like me!"
"Heard that before." by this point in time Mendella signaled me to get ready, we were leaving.
"Come on, what are you waiting for? Do what you do best! You monster!"
"No."
And then we left, could hear the sirens as we were leaving approach closer and closer.
The reason why I didn't kill her, is because I have no basis to do so, she came after me for revenge, I can't kill her for that, revenge is a reaction, a reaction I myself experienced. I know she'll keep coming after me and I'll keep avoiding her, up until the point when she decides to cross the line, only after that, will I kill her.

Don't trust anyone, ever.
Report #113 2014, July 23rd.
Can't believe I forgot one of those crucial rules, you can't trust anyone, at all, even people you consider to be friends.
Me and Annalee decided to make a deal, I send her over all the files Dimir had and in return she sends me the files on L.E.G.I.O.N. If you never heard about Legion, it's an organization centered around beating IT, however the way they try tho achieve that, is by capturing innocent people and experimenting on them to death, the organization needed to be shut down and I was planning on doing so, Annalee was supposed to send me over the blueprints of their building, their location, information on their workers, etc.
But we couldn't send it over via e-mail or anything like that, great example why, my computer was hacked, it could get hacked again, it could be being hacked right now as we speak, they could get their hands on the information and either prevent it from sending, or something else. Then Annalee told me about The Couriers, The Couriers was an organization centered around delivering various thing to runners if they requested it, then the organization disappeared, or fell apart, or something. And recently, it started rebuilding, so there's that.
So they were supposed to go to Annalee first, get her package and then travel all the way here, to Russia and get my package in exchange for hers.
I heard 3 slight knocks on our door. I was in no position to move at the time, my body is covered in bandages, it hurts to even move, if I were to get up, stitches would rip. So I signaled to Mendella to open the door, while I reached under the bed for my Bolt Action 50. Sniper Rifle, this thing can blow anyone's brains out along with their skull, especially at close distance, the head would just get ripped clean off.
Mendella got his Uzi out and opened the door quickly, pointing the gun at anyone who was standing nearest to the door. Upon seeing a second figure through the door, behind the first one, I aimed my Sniper Rifle at the second figure.
"Who are you!?"
First figure lifted his hands up above his head and replied calmly in Russian:
"Malcolm Pierce, head courier. This is my colleague, Ellen. We've been sent here with a delivery from Miss Annalee for you."
Mendella looked at me, I was looking and Malcolm and then I looked at his colleague through my scope, she was packing, but nothing too serious, I looked at Mendella and nodded my head, showing him that we can let them in.
Mendella put his gun down and welcomed them inside, I was putting away my Sniper Rifle, but not too far and replied in Russian as well (Haven't talked in Russian for a while now, needed practice):
"Sorry, can't afford to be nice, we've become quite popular here in Moscow."
Upon further examination, once they walked in, I was able to see them more clearly. Malcolm was dressed in a fancy suit, he acts calm, clearly a rich boy. His colleague Ellen, on the other hand, looked like the kind of person who would put on anything that was in the closet, not nearly as posh as Malcolm.
Malcolm took out a box and started walking towards me:
"Contained within this is the information Annalee is exchanging for your information. I have no idea what either refers to, but until we have successfully left this building with your delivery to her, you aren't to open the files within. As per the terms of our agreement."
I thought for a second, then looked at Mendella who was guarding the door to a room in our hideout, he looked at me, with a disagreeing look, I should have listened, but I decided to go with my gut feeling on this one, as always:
"That's alright, I trust her."
Mendella was shaking his head disapprovingly.
"Get the hard drive."
Mendella stormed off into the room he was guarding, to get the hard drive. After a few minutes, he walked over and gave me the hard drive. I extended the hard drive towards Malcolm, but not giving it to him yet:
"Hand to hand."
We exchanged items. As we were exchanging, I could see his colleague being cautious of any dirty tricks from our side.
Once the box was in my hands, I looked at Malcolm and told him:
"Thanks."
Then I looked at Mendella:
"Show them the door."
He took out his Uzi and pointed it at them, signaling to the door. Malcolm's colleague, Ellen, stepped between him and the gun. They didn't move immediately, stood in one spot for a few minutes, felt longer. Then they finally started walking away, Malcolm on his way out, turned his head slightly towards me and said:
"It's been a pleasure doing business with you. We will make sure your delivery reaches it's intended destination."
Funny about the "Pleasure doing business" part, didn't sound like he meant it at all, no wonder, welcomed with a gun to the face, exited with a gun to the face. However, I'm not here to make friends, I'm here to do my job, at least, that's what I thought I was going to do by traveling to Legion's base and taking them out.
But, no. What was in the box, was a box full of blank pages and a little "apology" note, that said:
"I know this looks bad, but I'm sorry. The information on L.E.G.I.O.N. isn't something I can disclose any longer. Please know when I made the deal I had no idea I was going to be sidelining you like I am right now. Again, apologies.
-A.C."
An apology doesn't cut it, not only am I not trusting you anymore, nor any word you say, I assume that you did this in order to protect LEGION and if you protect them, you deserve whatever you get. You did say that you were visited by them before sending off the documents, one might assume that you were threatened by them, but there's also an assumption of you working together with them. But you did say that you will explain everything in your recent post, so I'll wait, I doubt I'll believe you though.
And here's a little critique Couriers, check the contents before you accept them.
Mendella was right to be suspicious of her, I should have listened.

Can't believe I forgot one of those crucial rules, you can't trust anyone, at all, even people you consider to be friends.
Me and Annalee decided to make a deal, I send her over all the files Dimir had and in return she sends me the files on L.E.G.I.O.N. If you never heard about Legion, it's an organization centered around beating IT, however the way they try tho achieve that, is by capturing innocent people and experimenting on them to death, the organization needed to be shut down and I was planning on doing so, Annalee was supposed to send me over the blueprints of their building, their location, information on their workers, etc.
But we couldn't send it over via e-mail or anything like that, great example why, my computer was hacked, it could get hacked again, it could be being hacked right now as we speak, they could get their hands on the information and either prevent it from sending, or something else. Then Annalee told me about The Couriers, The Couriers was an organization centered around delivering various thing to runners if they requested it, then the organization disappeared, or fell apart, or something. And recently, it started rebuilding, so there's that.
So they were supposed to go to Annalee first, get her package and then travel all the way here, to Russia and get my package in exchange for hers.
I heard 3 slight knocks on our door. I was in no position to move at the time, my body is covered in bandages, it hurts to even move, if I were to get up, stitches would rip. So I signaled to Mendella to open the door, while I reached under the bed for my Bolt Action 50. Sniper Rifle, this thing can blow anyone's brains out along with their skull, especially at close distance, the head would just get ripped clean off.
Mendella got his Uzi out and opened the door quickly, pointing the gun at anyone who was standing nearest to the door. Upon seeing a second figure through the door, behind the first one, I aimed my Sniper Rifle at the second figure.
"Who are you!?"
First figure lifted his hands up above his head and replied calmly in Russian:
"Malcolm Pierce, head courier. This is my colleague, Ellen. We've been sent here with a delivery from Miss Annalee for you."
Mendella looked at me, I was looking and Malcolm and then I looked at his colleague through my scope, she was packing, but nothing too serious, I looked at Mendella and nodded my head, showing him that we can let them in.
Mendella put his gun down and welcomed them inside, I was putting away my Sniper Rifle, but not too far and replied in Russian as well (Haven't talked in Russian for a while now, needed practice):
"Sorry, can't afford to be nice, we've become quite popular here in Moscow."
Upon further examination, once they walked in, I was able to see them more clearly. Malcolm was dressed in a fancy suit, he acts calm, clearly a rich boy. His colleague Ellen, on the other hand, looked like the kind of person who would put on anything that was in the closet, not nearly as posh as Malcolm.
Malcolm took out a box and started walking towards me:
"Contained within this is the information Annalee is exchanging for your information. I have no idea what either refers to, but until we have successfully left this building with your delivery to her, you aren't to open the files within. As per the terms of our agreement."
I thought for a second, then looked at Mendella who was guarding the door to a room in our hideout, he looked at me, with a disagreeing look, I should have listened, but I decided to go with my gut feeling on this one, as always:
"That's alright, I trust her."
Mendella was shaking his head disapprovingly.
"Get the hard drive."
Mendella stormed off into the room he was guarding, to get the hard drive. After a few minutes, he walked over and gave me the hard drive. I extended the hard drive towards Malcolm, but not giving it to him yet:
"Hand to hand."
We exchanged items. As we were exchanging, I could see his colleague being cautious of any dirty tricks from our side.
Once the box was in my hands, I looked at Malcolm and told him:
"Thanks."
Then I looked at Mendella:
"Show them the door."
He took out his Uzi and pointed it at them, signaling to the door. Malcolm's colleague, Ellen, stepped between him and the gun. They didn't move immediately, stood in one spot for a few minutes, felt longer. Then they finally started walking away, Malcolm on his way out, turned his head slightly towards me and said:
"It's been a pleasure doing business with you. We will make sure your delivery reaches it's intended destination."
Funny about the "Pleasure doing business" part, didn't sound like he meant it at all, no wonder, welcomed with a gun to the face, exited with a gun to the face. However, I'm not here to make friends, I'm here to do my job, at least, that's what I thought I was going to do by traveling to Legion's base and taking them out.
But, no. What was in the box, was a box full of blank pages and a little "apology" note, that said:

Healing.
Report #112 2014, July 10th.
Still alive, Mendella patched me up as well as he could, few days ago, I regained my consciousness.
I went to Dimir's building like I planned, shot two pipe-bombs filled with tear gas. In a few seconds, first floor was filled with it, while all the guards were pre-occupied crying and throwing up, I strolled through the first floor, avoiding killing anyone, decided to use the stairs rather than the elevator, since I have bad history with elevators. Ran into some guards along the way, avoided killing them, only shot at their feet.
After a while, I got to Dimir's main office, there were no guards near it, obvious trap, had no choice but to walk into it. Suddenly the lights went out in the office, along with automatic window blinds, covering all the windows in the office, it was pitch dark inside, my only source of light was the open door to the office.
I hear footsteps in the darkness, shoot in that direction, hit nothing but walls, then it happens, someone behind me, stabs me in the back with a knife, turn around in order to shoot the person, he pushes my arm down to the ground and I shoot at the ground. I feel a knee kick to the gut, open palm strike to the nose, breaking it, another stab to the stomach. I get thrown at the table inside the office, head hits against the edge of it, I'm on the ground, the knife sticking out of my stomach is stepped on, pushing it further inside.
The attacker walks a few steps away, I didn't know why, didn't care, I get to my knees and take out the knife from my stomach, my blood is all over the floor. I attempt to swing, he is too quick, simply moves away and avoids contact, knees me in the jaw, takes me by the back of my head and slams it against the floor, I try to get to my feet, he grabs me by the back of my hair and puts a knife to my throat, while telling me that he is not impressed with me.
Seizing this opportunity I lulled my head to his forearm, bit a good chunk of his skin (Maybe chunks of meat) off his arm, he pulls the same arm away and goes in for the stab, by some miracle I manage to put my forearm in the way of the knife, the knife pierces my forearm, breaking the bone. I spit his skin and meat (Along with a good bit of my blood) into his face, blinding him for a second. I use my right arm to go for my second gun hidden in my pouch, at the same time using my left arm to punch him in the face, breaking his nose, he stumbles back, the punch hurts, since that the arm where the knife was lunged in.
I shoot at him, he moves, rolls, picks up my gun that I dropped earlier, he stops to aim, his mistake, I shoot, hit his left shoulder, he shoots, hits my left shoulder as well. I fall to the ground, I keep shooting at him, he runs, skull rattled, guts leaking into my lap, bleeding out, whole world blurry, I was seeing three of him, I shoot them all. And then everything goes black, he throws a smoke grenade, filled with black smoke, must have been a smoke bomb DTB02. My mind was drifting, the darkness was disorienting, it didn't help that I was hearing my wife's and daughter's crying voices.
Suddenly, I get an arm around my neck from behind, chocking me, he pulls the knife out of my back, I can feel the wind of the knife going into the air, he was about to stab me, had to improvise, I shoot myself in the chest, near the arm pit, right under the shoulder bone, bullet goes through, hits him in the chest. He falls to the ground, still holding the knife, trying to get up, I shoot his hand that was holding the knife, fingers fly into different directions, knife drops, he is useless.
Told him to call Dimir and tell him that I'm dead in his office, he calls, says exactly what I said, Dimir doesn't believe him, he gives me the phone, I take and listen, Dimir spews some bullshit about me never getting to him. I dropped the phone, shot the assailant in the head, recorded a recording using my old ass voice recorder, uploaded the recording to my blog, all the while downloading all the information from Dimir's computer. Then I fell unconscious for about 5 minutes, when I woke up, I was still looking at the dead body of the assailant, got up, dragged my body all the way down the stairs, could hear sirens, had to get away, had to get home.
I don't remember walking all the way back to my home, I don't remember that bit at all, it was dark for me at the time, a darkness that dissolved when suddenly I heard Dimir's voice again:
"Hello Sergei, welcome home."
He was at my family's house, somehow he figured out where I was hiding all this time and he planned an ambush. 4 of his guys get out of the bushes, 2 on left side, 2 on the right side, they start shooting at me, I immediately turn to the right and shoot, I could feel bullets digging into my right shoulder, left shoulder, my side and my stomach. I was able to shoot one of them in the head, left side seemed to run out of bullets and they were busy reloading, the second guy on the right side shot my left ear off, I pushed him back a little, he shot his last bullet through my stomach, just below my rib cage, I put the gun to his head and shoot his brains out.
I turn to the left and see muzzle flash everywhere, they must have reloaded, I also see Dimir hiding behind his truck, I had to reload, I hid behind the tree that was nearby, while I was reloading, one of the guys kept shooting at me, the other one changed position, taking cover behind the same truck Dimir was hiding behind. I finished reloading, get out from behind the tree, shoot one of the guys on the left that was still in the bushes, then I shoot the other one that was hiding behind Dimir's car.
Dimir picked up his body, lifted it over his head like it was nothing and started running at me, I shot Dimir in the gut and that's when the gun clicks, the most annoying sound in the world, he throws the body at me, making me fall down, I drop my gun, he tries to stomp my head in, I move my head just in time, instead he stomps on his dead goons head, I grab his dead goons head and shove it in his crotch, I thought it would slow him down, it only pissed him off more. He grabbed me by the collar, pulling me up and throwing me against his truck, my right arm goes through the window, he approaches me, I grab as much glass as I can, when he gets closer I rub it against his face, I slam his head against the roof of his truck, he stumbles back, I punch him, he stumbles back even more, I punch him again this time sending him to the ground.
It took me three punches to get him down, he does only one punch and it's enough to make me stumble back and turn my back to him, he decks me in the back of my head making me tumble down, he grabs me by the back of my hair, there's a fire hydrant in front of me, he shoves my nose against it, if the open palm strike from the assassin wasn't enough, then this was, to give me a concussion. There was a puddle of water on the ground near the hydrant, must have been from the rain earlier, he shoved my face into it, I hit the ground, while suffocating. While I was drowning, my remaining ear was not consumed by the water, I could hear him yelling at me, telling me, that his daughter died for a reason, she died to give him this city, that he will leave a mark on this city, he told me that my family died for nothing, my entire life was a useless waste, I changed nothing, won nothing, accomplished absolutely nothing, he might have been right, I didn't like him being right, it angers me, it angered me then, it gave me the strength to lift my face out of the water, opposing his strength. I used my free arm, to hit him in the jaw with my elbow, he let go, I turn around and grab his neck, squeeze it so hard that his tongue is sticking out, he gets his face closer to mine, so my grip loosens, before I inevitably let go, I use the opportunity and bite his tongue off. I let him go, he pushes me in the back of his truck's bed, the truck bed was filled tools, iron pipes, etc. He took an Iron Pipe, I went for the tool box, he started to swing the iron pipe, before he could land a hit, I spit his tongue along with some of my blood in his face, he stumbled back, I take the hammer use the back of the hammer, stabbing the hammer into his temple, he falls down, I think he's dead, I drop from his Truck's Bed, crawl over to my gun, reload it and slowly get up to my feet. I hear him still groaning and moaning, remembering the lecture he gave me, about this city being his, it might have been his city, but it's my world, I shot him in the head, he stopped moving, Dimir was and is dead.
Then I lost consciousness, just before I fell to the ground, I saw them, my family, standing on the footsteps of our house and for a split second, I saw IT behind them, I thought I would die. And then I wake up on a comfortable bed and I see myself, nursing me back to health, at first I'm confused, it takes me a few minutes to realize that I'm still alive and it's thanks to Mendella.

Dimir's Dead.
I found Incognito, he's with me, barely breathing, I have no idea how he still alive with all the wounds in him: Broken Nose, punctured side of the back, punctured stomach, punctured fore arm, gun shot wound in the right shoulder, second gun shot in the right shoulder, gun shot near the stab wound of the stomach, gun shot near the rib cage, gun shot on the back of the left shoulder, third gun shot on the right shoulder, shot off right ear, gun shot just a little below the rib cage in front, pieces of glass on the right side of his face, broken jaw.
I have no idea how he is still breathing, I did everything I could for him, now it's just a matter of time to see if he crawls through. My hunch was correct, all this time he was operating from his old home, where he used to live with his family, I can't imagine how hard it was for him to spend every night in there.
When I got to the house though, I wasn't expecting to see a pile of bodies across the whole street, near the door step was Incognito, unconscious, behind him were four dead bodies of some men that I never seen (Probably proxies) and amongst them was a fifth body, Dimir, with a hammer sticking out of the side of his head and a bullet through his head.
Apparently, when Incognito infiltrated the tower, he didn't expect that Dimir would be infiltrating his base of operations at the same time. Based on Incognito's recording in the previous post, Dimir had left some sort of assassin behind, by the sound of Incognito's voice, he was already badly hurt. So when he managed to crawl back home, he was ambushed by Dimir's men, somehow Incognito managed to take all of them out.
Also, Annalee, don't worry, I have all the documents you wanted from Incognito, he had the hard disk in his pocket, it's a miracle that thing wasn't hit. I scanned through the info on this thing, interesting reading, I'll send it over as soon as Incognito is able to utter a sentence.
