Meanwhile somewhere in California.

It's a rainy and foggy morning in a forest somewhere in California. The sound of the wind, raindrops, and wildlife occasionally patrolling the area. For potential food

As the wind begins to pick up, blowing past his hair and fur flowing with the wind.

Shirou crouched on a tree large branch attached to a long tree while surveying the area.

He was given the lead after interrogating and subsequently killing Jenkins a few days back.

Jenkins gave him the information that a secret base where the terrorists have been hiding is one of the places where they keep intelligence. As Jenkins clarifies that there are many bases across the United States.

So if this base didn't have the information he needed, then you would have to travel across different states to find a clue or really anything behind this group of terrorists.

He looks Northwest facing more trees across the distance. Shirou begins to think to himself.

"From what I remember from Jenkins. The base should be two miles away from here. If I cover my tracks and remain undetected. I should be able to pass them. From previous experiences with this group. They seem to be incompetent, but I don't want to fight them in large numbers. I would have to fight through them, and it would give them enough time to delete the information I need. Jenkins also mentioned that it should be in a storage computer of some kind. Located downstairs near the barracks."

he begins to leap across trees, covering the ground, and after a while. He reaches the base still on top of the trees.

He is about 30 ft away from the base and begins surveying the base for any way of Entry.

Shirou because to think to himself again. "I see 10 men on the ground. 5 patrolling around the base and five more patrolling within 20 feet away from the base. And there seems to be no way of Entry besides the front door. I could possibly take a disguise. But I'm not sure if they have any devices that can detect beastmen. Or at least in this base"

as he remembers some encounters of them not having any devices that could detect.

"Are they really that unprepared" he mumbles to himself. He stops his thoughts and looks down to see two men talking to each other. They are on the ground and right next to the tree that Shirou is on.

He goes quiet and listens to The Men's conversation.

Owen: is it almost time to head back to base, Greg?

Greg seems to be unenthused by his Partner's question.

Greg: we should be done in about one more round. Quit your complaining.

They continue to walk until Shirou while trying to watch them. Makes a cracking sound by putting a little bit of weight on one of the branches and the soldiers could hear it.

But they didn't look up. Instead, one of them began to look around frantically.

Owen: did you hear that?

Greg who seems to be nonchalant about the whole thing

Greg: Must be an animal

Owen: an animal!? That's what they always say in horror movies until they get jumped.

Greg: alright? What do you think it might be then?

Owen: it might be an intruder. Like the CIA! Or some other group that has something against us.
