It's dark... What- What happened to you?
A gunfight, bright and bombastic. Death clouding the peripheries, and you caught in the middle.
One stray bullet is all it took. Tore through your leg and forced you down. You couldn't even support your own weight.
X grabbed you. Began to drag you to safety. To salvation. You made her promise.
A blast. Not bullets, but energy. Lethal, nonetheless.
They drop you. It's dark, and you're blind from the blood in your eyes.
It's quiet, now. You call out, scream out for help.
Your screams come out as a whisper.
Voices, over the radio. Asking for you. Where are you? Where are you?
It's dark. You don't know where you are. You're alone.
Footsteps, suddenly. Voices.
Gunshots.
They've returned to finish the job. It's dark, and you can't see them approaching.
It's dark, and you hope that X will keep her promise.
It's dark, and you can't see the gun pointed at your head.
It's dark, and suddenly, that darkness becomes your reality.

VICTOR-4
"<:: You tolerate my humour, you work well in field duty and investigations. You're reliable, fuck what the others say about you. You didn't deserve those damn demotions. I'm ashamed they let a moron like me share a rank with someone like you. ::>"
"<:: You've transferred. That's okay, I could always use a trustworthy unit patching me up. I hope you start ranking up soon, though, else I might get too far ahead. ::>"
"No chance of me getting too far ahead, now. Hope you fly high, man."
JUDGE-7
"<:: Leader of the IAT, all-around great guy. He seems way more in-touch with himself then a lot of high ranks I've seen. Must be hard, keepin' your head on straight when all the pressure in the world's tryin' to make you mad. I'm envious of the epaulettes, though. ::>"
"<:: I don't have to be envious of the epaulettes, anymore. It's a shame that the circumstances of my promotion involve your untimely disappearance, however. I hope you come back soon, IAT needs you, man. ::>"
"Once I find you up here, let's catch up, eh? I'm sure we've both got plenty of stories to tell."
JUDGE-011
"<:: You've given me the key to my future. I will not fail you. IAT will not fail you. I would rather die then let that happen. ::>"
"Seems I followed through with my promise. Treat the spec boys well for me, would you?"
HELIX-5
"<:: You seem less fuckin' neurotic then the rest of the rank leaders. Good for you. Still gonna stay outta your way unless I got somethin' to gain from us talking, though. ::>"
"Wish we could've talked more. Damn me and my hesitance."
VICE-9
"<:: Yet another rank leader, yet another person I'm tryin' to avoid. You seem to have a bit of a sadistic streak, at least from what I've seen. What you did to that guy out in D13... He ain't gonna be seein' right for a while. Cigars were nice, though. ::>"
"I'm sorry. You're gonna have to return home with one less unit. Keep twenty-four safe."
VICE-7
"<:: I haven't spoken to you much outside 'a sweeps an' slum patrols, but any time I've seen you workin' you've been efficient, and it's always been a pleasure burning down the shelter in your company. I'm down for patrol again sometime. ::>"
"For once, I'm glad you weren't with us. The last thing we needed was you following me."
XRAY-6
"<:: You're an absolute bitch, and it's absolutely hysterical. Please never change, or I might die of boredom out on patrol. ::>"
"Did you get out?.. I hope you did. Please, for my sake, tell him... He deserves to know."
KING-9
"<:: You have potential, that much anyone can see. I hope your greenback enthusiasm gives way to a proper, professional officer soon, though. And welcome to IAT. ::>"
"In the time I had to teach you, I hope I moulded you into a proper, upstanding unit. Make me proud to be a KING."
JURY-1
"<:: A transfer from TCU to IAT. We've spoken before, but it'll be a little bit before I can get a proper read on you, yet. I got a feeling you'll pick things up quick, though. Here's hoping, anyway. ::>"
"Wish we could've talked more. I regret every second I spent focusing on something other then the people around me. Fly on, man."
Director Jack Knight
"<:: I do enjoy our chats, and your sources are very interesting to learn from. You have a diligence about you, and a passion for the CWU and Union as a whole that I can respect. Let us keep talking, hm? ::>"
"I suppose another IAT unit will have to carry on our talks. Thank you for all your help."
Michael Hoxworth
"<:: An interesting one. You're certainly loyal, and tend to prove it with more direct action then words. A shame about the recent marks on your record, though. I hope the medical facility treats you well. ::>"
"Goodbye, Hox. You've done so much, and I never got the chance to thank you. I'm sorry, but I won't be able to keep my promise to get you out of there."
Lysa Vayre
"<:: One of the CMU Doctors. Gave me a nickname about how I cared for the other CP's in surgery. I can respect the work you do, though I don't want to get too buddy-buddy with you. Protocol, and all that crap. ::>"
Sven Aalto
"<:: Finally tasted combat, have you? About time. I get the miltia and us are s'posed to be enemies or whatever, but I can't help but respect someone who's out there killin' rebels like we are. Just, don't let it get to your head. ::>"
Elijah Locke
"<:: You're about the only slummer I can stand, and even then, don't talk to me unless you're reporting something. ::>"
Gustavo Baldo
"<:: You think you're slick, getting away from the Rank Leaders with a warning? Well I won't give you such a mercy. If I ever see you in those slums, you're dead on the spot. ::>"
"So. That's how it ends, huh? I kill you, and your friends avenge you. Karma, I suppose. Maybe I'll find you, wandering about up here. Maybe we can talk. Haven't got a reason to hate. Not anymore."

"<:: I cannot wait to put a bullet in your head. ::>"

Final Note: Thank you all for the excellent time playing this character. Playing as KING-1 has been one of the best experiences on the server for me, and it couldn't have been such without every single one of you by my side helping to make it so. Thank you.
If I've missed your character in the relationships list, feel free to comment. I'll add them.
