[QUOTE="Mal Malenkirk, post: 4492855, member: 834"] [B]Somewhere in Freak Alley[/B] Ghost bolted after the mysterious figures. Noticing the chase, he accelerated and almost lost the legionnaire in a maze of concrete tunnels. The fleeing man initially outpaced the larger man but Ghost dug deep and managed to maintain his target his sight, if barely. As muscle fatigue set in, the sprint turned into a contest of endurance and the well trained legionnaire finnally started to grind down the lead of his prey. Well over a mile later, the chase concluded as Ghost cornered the man as he fumbled in a dead end and had no time to get out. The fleeing man looked like a local toughs, maybe a gang member though he was pushing thirty and was getting a bit old for the game. He stared at the approcahing legionnaire. His eyes were wide, panicked and his left hand was inching toward a suspicous bulge in the pocket of his coat. The big man loomed over their shadows. His hands were not on his weapons, but when he stood to his full height, the shear wrongness of his appearance was clear as day. He looked dispassionate, his voice was cool, almost casual. -''You best be talk'n now. It'd be less hurt for both of us.''
