A loud pound on his door made Chris regain his reality.
"Yo, sleeping beauty, get up man!"
"yah, fine man, just hold on..."
Chris rolled over and looked at his watch, it was 3 in the morning. He didn't feel quite right, but he forced himself up. Stumbling over to the door, he opened it. It was Jake, a co-thief.
"Hey man, come on, Gurado has a job for you and me." Jake was so excited, he was kinda a joker, and was very hyper.
"Yeah ok, wait a second." Chris grabbed his trench coat, and Rushed down to the main room.
Gurado, the guild leader, was a tall man, he had jet black hair that was below his shoulders, and he wore a dark grey trench coat with a red shirt, and grey pants. He was about 34, and stood with respect and authority.
He explained to Chris and Jake, that there was a laboratory that they needed to infilitrate silently and get a canister of a type of gas.
Chris had one question.
"You know its 3 am, and I haven't had any sleep in a week?"
"Shut up and get on your assignment, you can catch the next train to the west side of town."
"THE WEST SIDE!!???" Jake almost screeched. "Thats where the military is at its highest of numbers, and you want me to go there? I'll just screw up Merc, I'll get to nervous."
Chris threw his hand into Jake's chest and shut him up, with a turn of the head and a small stare, Jake knew he better shut up.
"Were on it.." Chris and Jake left out the door.

Jake looked to Chris, they were on top of a train crouching. they would have to jump soon. "How'ed you come across the codename "MercKid"?"
Chris kept looking ahead for the "drop point" (more like leap and hope you don't hit something hard point) "The Boss named me it, he said I was like a mercenary because i would do anything for cash, and I enjoy it. You may think its heartless, but-"
He was broken off by the sight of soldier lined up on the next over pass, and they had rifles ready to fire.
"JUMP!!" Chris Grabbed jake and leaped off. They landed and rolled on the grassy area of a park-like area. Gun fire interrupted the sound of crickets, and screams of civilians near by. A bullet trail followed Chris motions, but he was too quick for there fire. Jake and rolled over a mound, that fortified him.
The soldiers were now running on either side of teh the track, towards the 2 intruders.
Chris yelled at Jake, "Lets go! Follow me!"
Jake and Chris ran behind boulders and trees and quickly had gotten away from the rather stupid soldiers who where itching there heads.
Chris groaned, he was not in the mood for pigs. However the need was low to worry about them, so they continued to there destination, using dark alley ways.
"Chris, I forgot to tell you, but I found this at my last job-" Jake gave a little metallic box, about the size of a cigarette box, with 2 buttons on it, with a belt clip. "I heard the scientist who made it say something about it making a person invisible, he calls it Stealth Camofluage"
Chris held it, but immediatly dismissed it to his pocket. Jake didn't know what to feel about this, but they had more problems. Ahead another group of soldiers were guarding the facility they had to get into. Chris thought he should test out his new toy.
"Hold on, lemme see if this thing works."
Chris ran out in the open and leaped out into the open, the soldiers drew there weapons up and burst fired at him. He had ran behind a satellite dish outside. He turned on the device and just as what was intended, he became unknown from the surroundings. He thought that even with out this, his skill was at an expert high in being stealth and matching his surroundings, but this was nice too! The soldiers had stopped there fire, but one fired a shot at the dish, and Chris was right against the other side, with his chest facing it. The projectile had hit the dish, bending the metal, and hit the Stealth Camo device.
Chris didn't notice and began walking out. The Soldiers screamed in terror.
They began screaming "ITS A GHOST!!"
"A DEMON FROM HELL, LOOK AT HIS MANGLED BODY, HES GOT NO HEAD!!!"
and so on.
Chris looked at himself with the shiny metal of the dish, the device wasn't hiding him completely, it was falshing his different limbs, making him look like a floating head, or a body with one leg and a floating hand.
"Damn" Chris Laughed though at the soldiers. But then one of them threw an EMP grenade, and Chris took cover. The pulse still hit Chris, and God Help what he experienced. A tingle surged threw his body, and suddenly he was in a darkness. His device had scrambled.
"Oh @#%$!" (Sorry for language, and the longish post, but this is fun)

Chris appeared back infront of the guards, and they were still scattering around, screaming.

Then he was back in the black world.

Now he felt like he was falling. Everything was getting colder. He suddenly gained light and he was falling in the sky. He must have been 50,000 ft high, and believe me, he wasn't in the mood for the landing. He looked down, and it was all icy and snowy, in the distance he saw a village. Everything was moving so fast. He hoped that his suit would withstand the below zero temperatures he was about to experience. He quickly drew his berretas, and fired at the ground, hoping that it was weak ice...and possibly water. He successfully penetrated, and without a second left, he was under water in the freezing cold depths, His coat covered him, and held his warmth in, but he was quiet deep, and without much air, could he get to the surface before he was a goner?
