Prologue

(Reserved means nobody except me can post here. It's to keep the topic from being clustered with comments. I'll make a topic for that.)

 

  Emma was cruising along the streets of Steelport just as she usually had.
"It's good to be the leader of this." She thought to herself.
Shaundi was in the seat next to her cleaning a shepherd.
"Hey boss you know what today is right?" Shaundi asked her.
Emma of course knew what today was. It lived in her heart every day since the plane.
"Ya, Shaundi... I know what today is. That's why we're going to the dry cleaners to pick up our dresses for it." Emma told her.
It had been a year since that day. The day Johnny stayed behind so, Emma and Shaundi could make it out of the plane. She would never forget that. It haunted her every night when she tried to sleep carrying with it crying episodes and night terrors. Johnny and Emma were close friends and to see him taken from them like that tore Emma apart but she had to keep together to run the Saints. Today was the day of his death and Emma promised that not another Saint would die for them. Not here not now or ever. She was going to make damn sure of that.

*Camera pulls away from car and the following comes up. Followed by this song. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBXOfiLS0zI

   In a world were organized crime and unlawfulness is common place the Third Street Saints have taken to the streets of Steelport. After some daunty fights and losing some friends the Saints have taken over Steelport. Now at the peak of their global entertainment enterprise only a few people old enemies could drop them back down to before Julius and the boss took over. Only time will tell if in these coming years the Saints rise to fight the opposition or become crushed like so many gangs they had crushed beneath their feet. This is the story of the Saints after taking on the Syndicate. Let us now see what will happen in this story.

Chapter Two: The Escape

Emma woke up with a terrible headache.

"Ah damn feels like I just woke-up from a massive hang-over." She thought.

She looked around the dimly lit room. A leaking pipe dripped water into a small puddle in the corner of the room were a mouse had made it's way over to drink from. Em sat up on the cot and whispered.

"Hey Shaundi can you hear me?" She asked. No answer.

Em stood up but immediately sat back down someone unlocked the door. Nobody entered though. Curiously enough an envelope slid under the door and stopped at her feet. She picked it up and opened it to read it's content.

"Miss Hansen I'm helping you break out of this sh*t hole. Outside on the floor you'll find your M1911 from your service years in the Rangers. Shaundi is being held two levels below and is being interrogated right now. Once you get her meet me on the roof to set your escape." It read. Em dropped the note and opened the door. Sure enough her pistol was right were the note said it would be. She picked it up and pulled the top back putting a round in the chamber. Whoever was helping her graciously left a magazine in the gun which was all the better for her. Going into a military movement stance Em made her way down the hallway to a bend. She went up against the corner as she heard footsteps approaching. The guard walked right by not noticing her. She snuck behind him and pulled out his combat knife. Before he could react Em grabbed him and stuck the knife in his chest piercing his heart. He dropped to the ground. She then picked his Ak up and a few mags he had on him pocketing them.

   She put the AK on her back by the sling and used her pistol instead. It allowed better movement and easier aiming then the AK. She made her way down the next hallway and continued to do so taking care of any guards silently in her path. At the end of one of the hallways she saw a heavy set metal door and opened it slowly. The room was completely dark except for a bit of light coming from some of the security monitors setup along the wall and a desk. Suddenly, the lights came on momentarily blinding her and the door behind her slammed shut. She turned and before she could react was tackled by a guard well more muscular and taller then the others. Her gun was knocked from her hands as she went down to the ground. The man had his hands around her neck squeezing the life out of her. No matter how she pushed with her legs and arms this guy was way to strong for her.

"This is the end for you bitch!" The man snarled squeezing harder.

Em's vision began to narrow. She almost went unconscious until the man was thrown off her by someone else. Whoever did it started unloading a GDHC into the guard without remorse. By reflex Em grabbed her pistol rolled over and fired at the guards head until nothing was left. After he was dead Em layed their and started to cough and wheeze catching her breath again. When she did she saw the man from what she could tell by his shape had an extended hand to help her up. His face was covered. She took his hand.

"Thanks." She told him brushing herself off and pocketing the 1911 out of rounds. She un-slung the AK now.

"You really have gone soft. Guess I have to whip you back into shape." The man told her.

Em couldn't tell who it was before with the disguise but she went wide eyed when she heard his voice. She recognized that voice anywhere.

"Johnny?! Holy sh*t it's you!" Em said taking off his dew cap and face mask.

He grinned at her.

"Who the f*ck else? The Pope? Gandhi? Pierce?" Johnny said.

Em laughed at that.

"Of course it's me. I believe we're even now." Johnny said.

"Indeed. You never did get me that beer after I saved your ass from the chair. Guess this is payment" Em told him shouldering the AK. 

Johnny nodded.

"What now?" He asked reloading.

Em chuckled.

"Bust out of here. Save Shaundi. Kick ass?" Em told him.

"**** ya. Let's kills some f*ckers!" Johnny told her.

Em started to walk to the door but decided to put a hand on his shoulder.

"Nice to have you back Johnny. The gang wasn't the same without you." Em told him apathetically.

Johnny took her hand and gave her the bro shake.

"Nice to be back but do me a favor? No more f*cking movies. That sh*t made us soft." He said.

Em nodded.

"Don't worry we're done being corporate whores." She told him.

"Good. Now lets go save the damsel in distress and find out who the f*ck we're dealing with." Johnny told her putting a round in the dead guard.

Em just nodded and headed for the door opening it. An alarm went off as they entered the hallway and dozens of guards started making their way towards them firing. They took cover behind some pillars.

"So, much for sneaking out of here!" Em yelled blind-firing at the guards dropping a few.

"F*ck that we'll blow through all these bitches. What is it a few dozen? I can take them!" Johnny yelled picking up a dead guards AK and dropping more of the guards.

"Remember the last time you said that?!" Em replied reloading.

"Hey that was different! I was stabbed and you were more important!" He replied.

Em laughed and starting firing again.

"Johnny making up excuses? I think Pierce is running off on ya Johnny." She said tossing him a dropped AK. He duel wielded two AK's and unleashed a hail of bullets down the hallway so they could move up forcing the guards to take cover.

"Who's side are you on and I sound nothing like whiny ass Pierce!" Johnny replied.

"Admit it Johnny it was to much even for you." She said killing a few more guards. The last one panicked and started firing randomly at them also running at them screaming a war cry. Johnny popped out of cover and shot one bullet into his head dropping him. He shouldered the red hot smoking barrel AK and looked at Em.

"I admit nothing. I'm alive and well and they're dead so, I won right?" Johnny told her.

Em shook her head. Johnny had a very large and prideful ego. They heard the tell tale signs of Shaundi's high heels approaching. Johnny took cover but Em just stood there. She turned the corner and went wide-eyed. Her cheeks were bruised a bit probably from the interrogation.

"Damn boss there you are! Think you made a big enough mess here? Reminds me of my college days and the frat parties." Shaundi said walking up AK in hand.

"It wasn't just me." Em said nodded her head towards Johnny. 

He stepped out of cover to Shaundi's surprise and then ended up getting smacked hard across the face by her. The sound echoed through the hall.

"What the hell was that for?!" Johnny asked looking at the anger and sadness in her eyes then he understood.

"You show up after a f*cking year and expect me to be all happy about it? If anything I should kick your ass for not telling us you were alive!" She told him angrily.

"I was pre-occupied and the Saints weren't exactly the way I remember them." johnny told her.

She slapped his other cheek this time. Em just waited reloading her gun and lighting up a cigarette she got off one of the dead guards.

"Ya, it's true we f*cked up big time and you were right about the movie sh*t. We know that now but you could of at least helped us or tell us you were alive!" Shaundi told him.

Johnny was getting irritated and angry himself.

"I was in the middle of the f*cking ocean defending myself from sharks when you two were in Steelport! Loren dumped me out and luckily I had a parachute on and regained consciousness before landing. I had to swim to Lakeside this city we are in and had no means of contacting you! I had to find some old friends here who then contacted Kinzie. I told her not to tell of my existence until the saints gave up the movie sh*t! I helped her get information on the Syndicate run by Philip so f*ck off." Johnny told her in an angry tone.

Shaundi let out a disgruntled grrr and stomped her right foot. Before she replied to him Emma went between the two and put her hands up.

"As heart-warming as this little re-union is we still need to get the f*ck out of here. Kinzie told me Johnny was alive after we did Gangsta's in Space our last movie. I was waiting for the right moment to tell you Shaundi at the funeral but sh*t happened out of our control. Now if you two love birds are done let's get the f*ck out of here please." Em told them walking off with a funny smirk on her face.

"What!!" They both exclaimed looking at each other in disgust. They then pointed at each other in a prodding way.

"We're not lovers just mad at each other!" They both said.

Em laughed and spoke as she turned the corner.

"Lovers think and say the same things!" Her voice fading as she walked on.

There was a moment of silence.

"F*ck.... she got us." Johnny said walking to catch up with Shaundi following.

 "Shutup." Shaundi said.

"Just stating a fact." Johnny said turning the corner.

Shaundi looked at the ceiling and rolled her eyes sighing as she turned the corner as well.
