Bullet of Revenge

*❝ The bullet of revenge, Chris!❞*
―James to Chris, telling Chris to kill Joseph G
**Bullet of Revenge** is the 16th story mission of *Shattered 2*, and of Chapter I. It must be started by Chris McGlone.

## Plot

### Breaking In

Chris meets James on a rooftop across from the Prantis Company Building, the G Gang's headquarters which they will break into and defeat Joseph G, their leader. Chris equips the body armor James got for him a few missions ago and the player, as James, must take out all the surrounding snipers, silently, with Aura Zoom. Once that's done, they must also take out the two thugs guarding the entrance, silently, using Aura Zoom.

James jumps off the roof with Chris and lands safely on the street below. The two dash through the front doors of the building and take cover, and are now in the midst of a giant shootout with the G Gang. The player must now make their way through the entire building, defeating all the G Gang thugs while Switching between Chris and James when necessary. Once the player gets through the numerous amounts of rooms, and works their way up the building, they will reach a much larger room, which is Joseph G's room.

### Defeating Joseph G

Joseph is being guarded by two G Gang Brute-class thugs. James uses his new Energy Sweep power to move the two brutes out of the way, exposing Joseph G. After some banter, the player as James must now fight Joseph G in a boss battle. Joseph is wearing full double bicarbonate body armor, and wields an enhanced assault rifle, so he is a worthy foe. Eventually the player will defeat him and James demands information about the man with powers, the one he's after. Joseph denies any information but James scans his mind and a portion glows, proving he knows about it.

James threatens Joseph and Joseph tells. He tells James that the man with powers is named Nicholas Monetti, and that he has Time Manipulation, the most powerful power there is. However, Joseph only kept in touch with him in case he ever needed him, and knows nothing more. Just then, James tells Chris that he can now shoot Joseph G if he wants to, and the player, as Chris, can choose to spare or kill Joseph.

### The Man with Powers Appears

Whichever choice the player chooses, James and Chris will walk out of the building surrounded by police, and Commissioner Pete will be there, congratulating James and Chris on taking down the gang leader. All of a sudden, there's a strange noise, and a portal opens up in front of everyone. The cops fire at it but at that moment, a hand raises out from the portal and stops time, and everything, even James, is frozen. The man with powers, Nicholas Monetti, steps out of the portal, with everything else around him frozen in time. He lifts Chris's shirt and attaches a strange glowing device to his chest, then grabs Pete and goes back through the portal with Pete, and the portal disappears and time resumes.

Pete is now in another dimension, gone with the man with powers, and Chris is in severe pain from the device, which has burrowed itself inside Chris. All of a sudden, Chris's body starts emitting light and a large blast occurs, leaving a huge crater where Chris was, and Chris is gone. James orders the police to ID everyone in the city to find Chris, calls Joey in a panic. Joey says he was frozen for a good thirty seconds, as everyone else was, and James tells him that it was because the man with powers froze time. They finally found him, and all this time, it was thought that only James and Erik possessed powers. Now a third man with powers is confirmed and there could be many more out there. There's so much mystery right now, and the mission ends in chaos.
