Alex took a few deep breath to calm himself down, slowing down the adrenalin coursing in his system. He needed a clear head right now and quick action or response wasn't it.
"First thing check, if he alone or anyone else around." He looked around until he spoted his gun, he pick it up as he made his way to his room to pick up more ammo. Then he check the place for any suprise, finding none he went to his door, opening it and looked out in the hall.
"Haven't heard anyone and the neighbours are being oddly quiet. Fuck me this probably mean the whole place is compromise." He went back inside to check the body for clues.
He got down to have a closer look at his new friend. He grab him and flip him on his back, removing his black ski face mask. He got his first look at his attacker, he was blond, reaching out he check his wound and notice it bleeding pretty bad. He could also spot bone and what he assume was brains. Guest it was safe to say he definitly not waking up any time soon.
"Can't spent to much time here, all that shooting alerted alot of people. I probably have mabey 5 to 10 min before Frank comes up here, asking some very uncomfortable question." He open one eye an then the other he noted in a dispassionate mood that the man had green eyes. He took a few second to stair at the face trying to see if hed seen him anywhere. He shook his head when nothing came to mind.
Next he'd check the body, by doing a pat down, he found a piece of paper with an address, his address. "Not good, so he came for me that's for sure." He also found a black bag the kind you use to put on a prisonner head. "He migth of wanted to interrogated me, but about what? And why me? Did he know that I was also a spy?" He frown as he tried to piece the few puzzle piece he had.

He focus back on the body he started removing clothing. On his left hand he found a ring nothing on it so he remove it. He keep searching for clues but got nothing. He knew that his attacker had spoken but he wasn't able to clearly make out the voice at the time, so he wasn't sure which dialect he spoke. He next turn his attention on the ring, nothing jump out on the outside it seem a pretty normal steel ring. He flip it around and look inside he spoted something he quickly move to lamp and turn it on.
Wen the light reflected on a symbol, he was shock he'd recognize that symbol anywhere it was hydra."No, no, no, no, no, this is bad very bad." He started to pacing around and thinking fast, going over everything about before during and after the fight. "First thing first, Paul Monroe cover is compromise. Which mean the CIA is compromise to a certain extent. Ok that bad but not terrible." He stop and looked around he should leave right now, the rest he can think about it later.
He quickly went to his room, push his bed all the way to the wall, crunch down and remove some loose floor boards. Inside the floor was a safe he lost no time on the combination, moving in a very calm and confidant way. Once he heard the click he open the safe took out a small brief case. Not even bothering to open it yet, he reach down once more into the safe an grab the gun and holster with the two clips of extra ammo.
He left the first gun that was CIA issued on the bed desk in his room. He then carried everything else with him toward the phoned. Place it down, as he was picking up the receiver and equipping his weapons. He dialled a special sequence of number that buy past the unsual operator.

The phone rang twice before somone pick up on the other side of the line."Ive been compromise, need clean up in nest, going dark for 8, contact again in 0800, if not, then rogue or dead." He didn't wait for response and hung up. Who ever answer didn't call back to clarify his situation, they simply past the message to the higher ups. He knew that this would no doubt come back and haunt him, but for now he had to disapear his life was more important then procedure.
He finish gearing up, grab his brief case, walk to the door of his apartment. He stop for a moment, turn around went over his attacker grab his head and with a quick sharp movement snap his neck for good measure. He had no idea who was going to be the first on the scene, but right now he wasn't sure who he could trust.
He left his apartment not bothering in taking the elevator. He walk toward the stairs he check down making sure no one was coming up. He move 4 floors down exited the stairs walk to another apartement. Slide the keys in the lock, open the door and relocking behind him. Moved to the window open it and he proceded to use the fire escape in going down the building. Once he hit the streets, he walk in the opposide direction of his car. He walk a few blocks away, took some alley way, double back a few time to finaly stop at another building. This one abandon, he walk to the stairway climb six flyte of stairs.
He arrive at a new apartment unlock it, and walk in. The room had couchs with sheets on top of them he just walk to the bedroom, removed the sheet. And crash on the bed he could figure it out later right now he was dead tired, in a few hours he woukd figure it out, just not now.
