Mayne Attraction 2
"That I what..." Ted didn't seem to have memories of what happened with Melanie "I heard from the streets that you were tortured and killed by the Hye Ryp Gang Leader." Ted seems to recall being chained up but he doesn't remember being killed "Then moments later, they recall seeing you rising like in that Dracula flick and terrorizing the leader..." Ted found that to be obscure "there's no way that could have been me..." Mayne commented on how the deceased wore a Neuromancer blade "and to be 'precise' they had a short video and it shows 'someone' with the Mark 1.5 version... So then, if that wasn't you then explain how someone managed to get a hold of your blades. And there can't be more than one since this is the only prototype... Vex told me." Ted asked, "When?" to which Mayne responded, "After you ran out of the cafe to save your girlfriend." Ted started to remember the events that unfolded.
Flashback:
Ted picked Melanie up and used his blades to climb the structures, it was there that he found Rexx's car was being used by more members of the Hye Ryp Gang "did you hear what happened to the boss? I heard he got put in his place by that whore's boyfriend." The other Hye Ryp didn't want to believe the story that their mate was telling them "No way that bitch Melanie's boyfriend could ever beat our boss." Ted wandered around the members, ensuring that he wasn't spotted "In all honesty and no disrespect, I'm glad that fucking piece of shit got what he deserved, for many reasons, I think we should give this guy a medal..." The member was about to argue back but watched in horror as his friend started to spit out blood, he fell to the ground, revealing Ted as his blades were covered in blood "Kill this fucker!" they tried to grab their guns but they were too late as Ted ripped their arms and while he killed the other two, he left one alive "If you tell me what I want, I'll let you go..." The last member tried to fight back but realized that Ted cut his hands off "Let's try again." The member surrendered and told Ted "I'll tell you anything you want! Please, don't kill me!" he began bursting into tears "I'm looking for a cop named Rexx, sound familiar?" the member replied "Yes I do! We took her and her niece and... The niece ran away but the other one was sent to Nueline, as per request from some old guy." Ted asked for the name "I promise I don't know! The one who does know is the leader! That's all I know, now please don't kill me!" Ted let go of the member and grabbed his dismembered arms and repaired them "I kept my word, you'll leave immediately." the member screamed "Thank you for your mercy." and then ran off, ignoring his non-deceased members that entered the scene. Ted was long gone and they only found the bodies of their deceased mates.
End of Flashback
"Ted! They're back... We need to keep a low profile if we..." before he knew it, Ted was gone, he looked back at the fake Mayne's car and noticed that he was killed in an instant, Ted was behind Mayne but bloodied up "Was that you?" Ted responded "Maybe... Maybe not." Mayne shook his head in annoyance "Come on, we can hitch the fake Mayne's ride." Mayne dashed into the fake Mayne's car and noticed how it was similar to his but the colour was disgusting with awkward shades of red with a mixture of green and pink on the seats and the floor-coloured peach, Ted entered Mayne's car and asked "Wheres Bolt?" Mayne answered, "He's at the small bar, getting as many drinks as he can with your money..." Ted sighed and faintly said, "Unbelievable." Mayne activated the car and he and Ted drove to wherever the hell he was taking them, Ted looked at Mayne and asked "Do you mind if I ask... How did you become a mercenary?" Mayne tried to adjust the subject but failed.
