He was surveying the area and he was vastly outnumbered. No matter how many he took out, it seemed like two would take the place of one fallen comrade. It looked like this time that these mooks would rather face death than report back to their bossman of a failure.
"I ain't going to die just yet," the crumpled figure said. "There's still plenty of things to do."
"Who are these guys?" Max asked.
"Why they belong to your counterpoint..." the figure replied.
"Ain't you my counterpart?" Max questioned the figure on the floor. Max had always figured that Control was behind most of the stuff he had been through; after all he was Control.
"No," Control said. "I'm not your Anti-Max."
