Nothing Personal, Just Business

Briefing

A thought suddenly darkens Eagle Eye's demeanor as he reflects on events internally. Finally he chooses to speak on them.

I'm afraid I haven't been one-hundred percent forthcoming with information, Character. It's just, well, I didn't want to alarm you.

Back Alley Brawler should be the one who is congratulating you for taking down Veles and the Skulls' Superadine Lab. Unfortunately, he couldn't.

You see, Brawler was investigating the sudden surge in Superadine on the street himself. But when the Skulls caught wind of him snooping around their turf, the Petrovics decided to hire on some outside help to take care of him: a contract killer named Deadlock.

Deadlock and the Regulators go way back. He's a high priced killer and drug lords have a lot of money, so you can imagine that we had run ins with him from time to time.

Deadlock put Brawler in the hospital. If you like I can tell you all about it...

This mission is a Single Player Mission only.

  • Is Brawler ok?

His pride is about as crippled as he is, but he's going to make a full recovery.

When I heard this from Brawler I knew that the Skulls were up to something big here in Kings Row. I dusted off my old costume and carried on where Michael couldn't.

Here, I'll tell you all about it.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Listen well, you may run into Deadlock yourself one day.

Briefing

From what I gathered from Brawler, it all started when Deadlock found a way past the security systems into Fort Trident...

  • Oh, that doesn't sound good... (Enter Mission)


Mission Objective(s)

Map: DEADLOCK_FORT_TRIDENT

You hitched a ride into Fort Trident on the belly of this submarine. Time to pay Michael White a visit, for old time's sake.

  • Deadlock's Personal Story (Solo Mission)
    • Silence the guards

Take out Back Alley Brawler Veles of the Skulls hired you to take Back Alley Brawler out of the picture, and that's just what you did. As your old rival, you felt it was better to leave both his body and his pride crippled rather than kill him.

Back Alley Brawler (Elite Boss)

 

Deadlock: Wake up, sunshine...
Back Alley Brawler: Ugh... What happened?
Deadlock: You used to be able to go a few rounds with me, White, you've gotten soft.
Back Alley Brawler: Carver... I guess times have changed... What's it been... Twenty years?
Deadlock: Twenty-three. But listen, you ain't got much time what with those broken ribs makin' ya bleed somethin' fierce on the insides...
Deadlock: So let's get the business outta the way before we catch up on old times, ya dig?
Back Alley Brawler: Business? Who hired you?
Deadlock: A pair of nut jobs called the Petrovic brothers.
Deadlock: Seems you done got them worried enough that they hired me to take you out of the picture for 'em.
Back Alley Brawler: If you came here to kill me, then get it over with...
Deadlock: Brother, if I was here to kill you, you'd be killed.
Deadlock: I came here to offer you a life changing experience, just like you did for me.
Deadlock: But in order to do that... You're gonna have to hit rock bottom!
Deadlock: Brother, when you wake up from that, I guarantee you'll be a changed man.

And that's how it all went down...

File:Badge i24 StMartial Personal Story.png You should see the other guy

You played Deadlock's personal story and learned a little bit about the man who put Back Alley Brawler in the hospital.

Debriefing

And that's how Michael told the story.

Be careful, Character. There's no telling whether the Skulls still have the money necessary to hire Deadlock to pay you a visit in order to repay you for what you did to the Petrovic brothers.

Just remember: Watch your back.
