First objective
Starting first memory playback with: Diary entry of certain day
{June 27th}
We're heading back to New Seattle, to retrieve a missing person. Adler joined us because she got fed up with Mephisto, I can't blame her. Besides, in case she gets injured, she won't return in a body bag...hopefully.
We're heading inside the tunnel, and it's a good thing I have cat vision, even though I'm not a feline. We're to be headed to that three story house I just scouted out, maybe my knowledge of the layout would come in handy. Just hope we make it there, we wasted so much time and daylight.

[They retraced their steps as they drove out the tunnel. The windows were slid down, and they welcome the cold breeze, and dank smell of New Seattle. The place is more emptier than they remember, it's like no one is here anymore. The feeling of going inside a ghost city fills them with distress.]
[The ride was silent and uneventful, they're just admiring the dead and freezing environment, focused on the task at hand, and free from the distress inside the camp. Hosea was met with conflicting reception, he expected to be welcomes, but they all dryly accused him of being the reason why they're there. AJ convinced them to go down south, to fetch Hosea, but the welcome party he received disturbed him in many ways.]
[Adler, from the cargo bed, didn't bother to play a road game with Gordon, nor is he in the right mood to join in. She's cooling off from stress working at the infirmary tent.]
[Gordon, also from the cargo bed, laid his shotgun on his shoulders, as he looks up to the sky, contemplating. Daydreaming to be exact.]
[AJ's gaze fixates to the road ahead, not wanting to be distracted by the many encounters happening from all around them. He's focused and takes full responsibility of the situation.]

[The drive wasn't long, but it wasn't early either, but they did make it to Diamond Hill street. A sudden mood change happened to Sani as she points her house to Gordon...which was ransacked.]
Adler: "Aww..."
Gordon: "Hey, at least we're still alive. Just wish Lyud is too."
Hosea: "Just round a corner here, but we should stop, and hide our truck in a secluded place. Also make our turret unnoticeable incase things go wrong."
AJ: "Someone has to stay behind then."
Hosea: "Nah... It's too dangerous out here too. It's cold, and there may be bandit patrols. Let's move in a tight line. Strong formation, where we watch all of our sides."
[AJ then agrees with Hosea's plan. After rounding a corner, and into the richest parts of town, AJ parks sideways, for the turret to have an easy angle when shooting, for a longer cover in case they get caught, and so that Adler, Gordon, or if any of them decided to jump in the cargo bed has an easy getaway.]
[Hosea grabs his rifle from behind him, checks the chamber to see if it's loaded, and added in a stripper clip. AJ draws his Revolver, checks the chamber as well, and nodded to see it full, he then cocks back the hammer as he unlocked both doors.]
[The four of them exit the vehicle, with Adler, now wearing her jacket and shoulder holster because it's cold, handed Hosea his bag. Gordon puts down the ear flaps of his hat, and puts on a weird looking bandana. A black bandana with white crosshairs as decorations.]
