He faintly opened his eyes with a blur and was in a perilous pain. His head was terribly throbbing and he felt a little bit nauseous. As his vision cleared he recognised the two men standing over him. Except this time there was a window with two shadows looking directly at him from behind him. Before he could say a word he heard a voice from behind the glass.
''What happened to the other one?''
''He died. I've told you three times now.''
Before John could say a word he was approached by the first man.
''Now, do not be afraid. We are agents Linch and Lynch.''
A laugh was heard from behind the glass, but it was quickly stopped.
The man continued,
''Your brother, or should I say your partner, was working as a double agent. Did he tell you this?''
''No!''
The second man came to his side,
''You are going to work for us now. Kapish!''
John swallowed, but nodded his head cautiously.
''Good.''
He was about to ask what this was all about, but he was interrupted by an earsplitting rumble as marble crashed to the floor like hail on a tin roof. The men jumped back as a darkly dressed figure sped to him and placed a harness on him, while the person's accomplices angrily rushed to attack the guards. John tried to speak but he felt a stinging pain like a saringe in his neck that stopped him while he sped through the air like a newspaper at a pesky fly.
