His walk took him down dark side alleys that caused him to grow ever cautious of his surroundings. He walked past two shady looking characters. He lowered his hand slowly towards his hip. His hand clasped the leather holster that held one of his pistols in place and he slowly unfastened the button at the top. He wanted to avoid confrontation, attention was really not his style. He preffered to be a shadow that way he was safer.
He passed through the alley without incident and his muscles became less tense, however he kept his hand down by his hip. Now he was entering the seedier part of New Moscow, "The Underground". This was where all of the cities criminals gathered in a safe haven. He wasnt quite sure if the security forces either didnt know about this place or whether they simply did not have the man power to shut the operation down. He didnt hazard a guess, it could have been either of the two. After all it was well hidden from the public. For a criminal hideout the place was pretty well laid out. Everything was organised so you could easily find what you want, probably so people who didnt want to be seen down there wouldnt have to spend to long.
Patrick sat down at a gritty bar deep in the heart of the underground. from here he could watch everything. Wherever he was Patrick liked to analyse the situation he was in. Where were the best exit points. What his success ratio, things like that. It was then that a poster caught his attention.

Underneath was a very crude drawing of his face. "Well now thats just insulting. Im not that ugly surely, and the bloody fools spelt my name wrong. They forgot the apostrophe."
Patrick laughed he had accrued quite a rap sheet. Although the wanted poster did not list in detail all his crimes against Sync Corporation, he kept a rap sheet in his pocket which listed every crime he had committed. He didnt have any bad conscience over this. The way he saw it he was the good guy here, Sync Corporation where the enemies and one day he hoped to cut the heart out of the world leadership.
