After two of the men from the Alpha Squad have 'died', another one is to be lost in action: Igor 'Doc' Golubov - the squad medic. He and his squad were fighting off GlobeX soldiers in the Pacific. He was tending to his squad leader's wounds while ge...
I was walking through a small street in the city. It was still pretty quiet. And being the idiot I am, I thought I was in the clear and went to a busier street.
Meanwhile...
???: Why did you call me now Indra?
A young woman asked.
Indra: You got to see this boss.
Indra said as she pointed at the TV, a news report.
???: It's just some news. I don't need anything from them.
Indra: Listen!
She unpaused the broadcast.
Reporter: Last night and this morning in the hospital "Wyatt Wilson", a stranger was seen walking through the hallways of the hospital. He even entered patients' rooms, but it seems that the stranger wasn't there with malicious intent, more so, the patients there were found healthy, and in a better state. The infected got almost no originium in their bodies, the ones that were suffering from other illnesses got better and the ones with injuries, like a broken bone, a concussion, and so on; were fixed. Here is a video of him.
A video from the cameras started playing, and the stranger was seen leaving the hospital in a hurry.
Reporter: We got no information about him, other than his appearance, he wears a gas mask, red beret, and some type of snowy camo. The police are looking after him at the moment. If anybody finds him, contact the nearest authorities.
The broadcast was over by now.
Indra: We need to find him.
???: ...let's go then.
With Igor...
Igor: o no.
I said as the news broadcast ended. Someone left their window open so I may have eavesdropped on them. I tried to get out of the city while running. I was going through a really tight street and two women walked out of a house.
???: ..but he could be anywhere-
I stopped in my tracks, the two girls also did so. We stared at each other for a moment to register what happened.
Igor: Oh hell no.
I ran in the opposite direction, and they started chasing me.
???: Stop! We only want to get you out of the public eye!
The blonde one said.
Igor: NAH! I TRUST NO ONE! NOT EVEN MYSELF!
I yelled at them and ran as fast as I could. But now I was looking upon a city square in front of me. I've got no option but to go to the roof. And so I did, I jumped onto the roofs with my Exo. I got some breathing room now.
Igor: Boy am I an internet sensation. Now, to see if this cloak can recharge.
I opened options for my Exo abilities, and it is rechargeable, it just needs the sun.
Igor: There are built-in solar pannels in this bitch?
After a bit of relaxing, I started going from rooftop to rooftop so I can get out of here. Next destination: County Hillock.
Meanwhile...
Amiya: Doctor!
An energetic girl exclaimed.

Amiya: Have you seen the news from Victoria?
Doctor: I did, I am surprised, to say the least...
Amiya: Should we try to find the person responsible for that?
Doctor: We need to. Let me prepare the team.
With Igor...
I was walking through a forest to County Hillock, I managed to escape the city unseen. As I was walking I heard screams in the forest. I went to investigate because the plot says so. I looked around the area to find a man being chased by a flesh.

I quickly shot at it and it died immediately, as soon as the man had enough, and dropped to the ground. I went to check on him.
Igor: You alive?
???: I am...thank you...what was that?
Igor: A flesh. These things might look terrifying and could kill, but they are just mutated pigs.
???: Mutated?
Igor: I'll explain. Igor.
I introduced myself.
Mark: Markus, but you can call me Mark. What were you talking about?
Igor: This.
I pointed at the dead flesh.
Igor: This is a mutated pig from the radiation from the Zone.
I rolled over the flesh on its bag and pulled out a knife.
Igor: We stalkers refer to it as 'flesh'. Now can you get me some wood?
Mark: Don't tell me you're going to eat that.
Igor: To most, this is the most disgusting meal they will have in their life, to Stalkers, it's a feast.
I started chopping the flesh limb by limb.
Timeskip...
Igor: Even though it suffered radiation mutating. You will not have radiation poisoning.
We had a conversation near the fire where the flesh was being cooked.
Mark: So you can eat anything then?
Igor: Ah that's where you're wrong. Not all mutants have that kind of characteristic.
Mark: There is more?!
Igor: Yup. And I'm looking to create a group of people who want to stop the mutants, anomalies, bandits...
Mark: Can I join you?
I was surprised by his request.
Igor: You can be the first member. Are there any radio stations around here?
