'''Briefing'''

'''{{darkorange|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...

'''{{darkorange|This mission is a Single Player Mission only.}}'''

* {{green|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.

{{Mission Briefing|Contact=Eagle Eye|Text=
From what I gathered from Brawler, it all started when Deadlock found a way past the security systems into Fort Trident...

* {{green|Oh, that doesn't sound good... (Enter Mission)}}}}

{{Mission Objective|Entrance=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.|Primary=Deadlock's Personal Story (Solo Mission)|Secondary=Silence the guards|Additional=Take out Back Alley Brawler|Completion=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.|Map=DEADLOCK_FORT_TRIDENT}}

'''Before Combat:'''
:'''Longbow Rifleman:''' I feel kinda worthless guarding Fort Trident. I mean, who would try to attack this place?
:'''Longbow Rifleman:''' Shut it, you're gonna jinx it, man.
'''Combat Start:'''
{{divbox|canary| |Security wasn't completely lax, a few guards tried to stop him...}}
:'''Longbow Rifleman:''' Who the hell are you?
:'''Longbow Rifleman:''' Sound the alarm!
:'''Longbow Rifleman:''' Crap, it's not working!

'''Before Combat:'''
:'''Back Alley Brawler:''' Positron, I'm getting some good data from your thermograph. Do another pass and let's see what we can see...
'''Combat Start:'''
:'''Back Alley Brawler:''' ... Carver?!

{{divbox|canary| |Deadlock had some sort of serum, it gave him super strength and resilience...}}
You received Neuron's Serum.
{{divbox|black| |Time to even the playing field with that Praetorian serum I lifted from those eggheads...}}

'''First Blood:'''
:'''Back Alley Brawler:''' Ungh! Good to see you too!
'''75% Health:'''
:'''Back Alley Brawler:''' Calm down, Carver, we can talk about this!
{{divbox|canary| |Michael had never known his old friend to have been that strong...}}
{{divbox|black| |What's the matter, buddy? Fear got ya by the marbles?}}
'''50% Health:'''
:'''Back Alley Brawler:''' Alright, I guess I'll speak a language you do understand!
'''25% Health:'''
:'''Back Alley Brawler:''' What the hell did you take?
{{divbox|canary| |Michael said he'd never felt so powerless in his life. Soon he would be at the mercy of a man without remorse...}}
{{divbox|black| |Do you want to die yet, White? C'mon, we're old friends, you can tell me...}}
'''Upon Defeat:'''
:'''Back Alley Brawler:''' Ugh...
{{divbox|canary| |The last of his strength spent, Michael collapsed. This was the end...}}}}

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

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

'''Badge'''

Upon completion of the mission, you will earn the [[You should see the other guy. Badge]]

{{BadgeBox|You should see the other guy.}}

'''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.
