Chris wakes up in a room. He looks around and sees screens everywhere. Each monitor is linked to different cameras in the same room, but not the one he's in. In the middle of the room the cameras are in, there is a box. Chris looks next to him and he sees William laying on the ground, headless. He hears a group of people outside the room walking to the door. Chris hides behind a desk as the door is opened. They all enter.

William: "He woke up and left already, go find him"

The group of people leave, but William stays.

William: "I know you're still in here, and I know you're probably wondering what's going on, and what happened. I'll tell you everything when we next meet. If you want to know where my office is, just ask nicely to one of my very friendly staff"

He slides something on the ground.

William: "You might need this"

William turns around and begins to walk out. Chris peeks around the corner and sees that William's head is attached to a robot body. He also notices a gun on the floor.

William: "Oh, and your friends; only one died. The rest of them are still alive, roaming about this facility. The nukes went off, if you didn't know"

William walks out, closes, and locks the door. Chris runs to pick up the gun. He checks the magazine. It has eleven bullets; twelve in total, counting the one in the gun. Chris tries turning the doorknob, but it's locked from the other side. He doesn't want to make noise, so he tries to find another way out. He looks around the room and finds a vent. Chris climbs into the vent and crawls to the closest opening. He looks out the vent and sees a hallway full of people dressed in black suits and wearing black masks. Everyone has a gun on their side. Someone looks up and sees Chris. The worker points to the vent.

Worker: "He's in the vents!"

Chris feels the vent bend, then break as he falls down. Everyone looks at Chris and pulls their gun.

Worker: "Drop the gun and put your hands up, or we'll shoot!"

Suddenly, the lights go out. Gunfire goes off and the lights are turned back on. One worker stands. The worker takes off their mask.

Connor: "Finally awake, I see"

Chris: "Connor? Where are we?"

Connor: "I don't know, but it's somewhere deep underground"

Chris: "Where is everyone else?"

Connor: "They're at the hideout. I'm about to take you there now"

Chris: "William said one person died, is that true?"

Connor: "I don't know if I would say they're dead, but there is one person missing"

Chris: "Who?"

Connor: "Snoe"

Chris: "Snoe? You can't find her anywhere?"

Connor: "We've found signs that she's still alive, but no proof yet. Anyway, the sooner we get back to the hideout, the better. Let's go"

Connor opens a secret door on the wall and walks in. Just before Chris follows him in, a worker on the floor talks.

Worker: "He.. *cough*.. killed her. The boss killed Snoe. I watched it happen with my own eyes"

Connor shoots the worker in the head.

Connor: "Let's go"

Chris enters the doorway, and it closes behind them. Chris follows Connor for a while until they reach the hideout. The hideout is a big, gym-sized area. Everyone from the mission is there but Snoe. When Rick sees Chris, he runs up and hugs him. Chris puts his arms around Rick.
